The stock (OC) setup on the card will overheat it, even with good airflow across the card. Also, on all three of our 290x's that we have (same models too) one of the fans stops spinning after a while. The bearings wear out. Funny enough, it is always the fan that has the MSI logo on it.
You could always just take the side panel off the case and prop a box fan up next to the computer.
I was genuinely considering the box fan idea, lol, I won't have time for a day or so to play with this, but when I can, I will try dropping the voltage as you guys had suggested.
Thanks Guys!
