Windows 10: Asus R9 290X underclocked??

Agreed. If you were to check the properties while gaming, you would find the card would likely be at 980 MHz as advertised. My R9 280 goes between 300 MHz and 1050 MHz constantly while under use. As Faith said, it's perfectly normal.

 

Should my GPU be so underclocked like this? It says as above the GPU clock is "300 MHz, ORIGINAL: 980 MHz"...so I'm confused. AIDA64 tells me the above clock and memory clock in the bold quote.

I cant even get speaker fill to work. Why have PC users been thrown under the bus?

Are you using a digital audio connection?

 

If the GPU aren't doing anything then the card will put itself in lower power states (performance tiers), that's completely normal. If it's pegged at 300Mhz constantly - while playing games, rendering etc - then something is wrong somewhere.
