I recently took ownership of a 3xs system with the above graphics card and in any game i've attempted to play it almost imediately shows a black screen and then locks up, requiring a hard reset. I tried most things including updating/reinstalling drivers and making sure everything is seated correctly and I was pretty much resigned to the fact that I wouldn't be able to play skyrim and I would have to wait to contact scan support.
However i decided to look for the original msi software instead of the amd drivers. I installed this, including the msi afterburner, and disapointingly experienced the same issues. So i thought, this card comes pre-overclocked, so maybe returning to stock speeds would work. Guess what it did!!! I've been happilly playing skyrim for the last 3 hours without any issues on ultra high settings
Still a bit miffed that my pre-overclocked card won't run in overclocked settings, but I'm happy for now. I suspect it might need a bit more juice to support the overclockm but I want to talk to scan support about it first.
Anyway hopefully this will give someone a quicker answer than I found, it's only taken me 3 evenings to sort it out...
