R9280X DC2 V2 Artifact fix?

Hey guys;

i just purchased a r9 280x direct cuII
http://www.asus.com/au/Graphics_Cards/R9280XDC23GD5V2/gallery/

after playing around with it i am very pleased with it i did however notice little artifacts is some games. (prior to purchasing the card all i heard was great reviews about the card)

but when i started google searches i was very suprised as what i saw, hundreds of post talking about the same thing from Asus, sapphire to gigabyte.

anyway i know it been mentioned millions of times. but i am just curios alot of the people having the artifact problem seem to have just accepted it and moved on, some statements i have read that people RMA the card and get another one back with the exact same issue.

so what i am wondering is, is there a real fix maybe under-clocking the card, and if so does anyone know the exact settings. i have searched around and didn't find anything. i have also installed GPU tweak and i have the latest vBIOS.
this is my first AsuS graphics card.

when i run Unigen Valley Benchmark i get no artifacts. but when i run 'Heaven' i get a bit, and good amount in "Tropics" i also noticed a bit of artifacts in Battlefield 4 mostly in the sky

i am running the latest WHQL Catalyst Software Suite 14.9
my clocks read in GPU Tweak

GPU Clock 1000
GPU Voltage 1200
VDDCI 0875
Memory Clock 6000
Memory Voltage 1516


Kind regards

And always you can send your GPU on RMA.
