Radeon gpu lockup in syslog

[GreatDanton]

I've been using my computer for a few years without any issues, until recently when I started to get random black screens (but a few seconds later I was able to use computer normally again). I thought they were from the latest update and I didn't pay much attention to them. Few days later my computer did not want to boot, and I heard 1 long beep and 3 shorter right afterwards. I checked the beep error codes, and according to the docs that supposed to be hardware fault. I opened up my case, removed the dust that gathered over the years, removed the graphic card, and put it back in. It booted on the first try so I thought the problem was solved.


Later on, black screens happened more often, so I checked my syslog and found something like this in it (this is just a part of it):

I goggled what that supposed to mean and found this post: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=186388

I am not quite sure if that's related to my problem, since the post is from 2014. Or is my graphic card slowly dying? I am kinda clueless, so any ideas are welcome (:
