So I own an R9 290 with default clock speeds (947 Core, 1250 Memory). After updating MSI Afterburner to the latest version, changing profiles now sets the clock to 1040Mhz and memory to 1350Mhz. Each time I try to reset, it reverts back to those values. I've adjusted the 2D/3D profiles without success, and checked HWInfo64, which confirmed my core clock was at 1040. Anyone has any idea what's happening? The only variation between profiles is fan speed—35% idle and 51% during gaming. Since yesterday it overclocked both profiles automatically.

Perform a complete uninstallation of the msi afterburner, then carry out a clean uninstall of the amd driver. Proceed with installing the newest amd driver from the amd website. Ensure the watt man page stays at its default setting by not clicking accept. Download the latest version of the msi afterburner and test if this resolves the issue.
