Hi all,
Does anyone else here own a PowerColor R9 290 PCS+? I've noticed that the fans on my card are always stuck at 30% unless I install a utility to manually control them. I ran Furmark and the temp reached 92c and the fans still didn't speed up (I didn't let the temps get any higher). I tried flicking the bios switch which didn't actually do anything at all and I've also uninstalled and reinstalled the AMD drivers.... Still the same.
Does anyone know what could be happening? Surely PowerColor are not doing this on purpose with their default bios fan profile?

. The fans are stuck at 30% and I don't know why... This leads to overheating unless I install other software to manually control the fans. The card is advertised as being 1040MHz, but in reality it will spend 99% of the time running at around 950MHz. I upped the power limit by +20 and it managed to scrape 1000MHZ (it's always throttling for some reason even if I manually increase the fan speed to keep it cool).
