Does Radeon Crimson driver not like my R9 290's ? [update: FIXED]

I went from 15.12 to 16.2 to 16.3 to 16.3.1 to 16.4.1.
I got artifacts in 2D. and by the way the control panel was seeing my GPU's in the wrong order. That reminded me to disable ULPS. It didn't matter, still artifacts in 2D.
I switched the cards.
I did not experience problems during gaming, though i have hardly played any game during the period from november last year till a week ago.
The problem is with the Crimson drivers they don't seem to be playing nicely on R9 290, in 2D at least.
I reverted to Catalyst 15.7.1. Problem solved!
