Who knows, he has the anniversary edition, and I have the ordinary XT. If the fans don't ramp up properly the RAM temp will head into the high nineties and beyond. I've noted that the Accelero fans hit max speed at a recorded fan % of about 40-42% and that with the GPU temp what it is the fan needs to be ramping up relatively quickly by the time the GPU temp gets to about 35-40°C in my current environment.

Mordenakhnen 46 Posted August 11 I've got Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut on the GPU, and some 0.5mm Arctic Thermal Cooling Pad sandwiched between small amounts of the supplied thermal adhesive on everything else. the 18cm case fans are running on low speed and make sod all difference to temps, if the card's fans aren't ramping then the RAM will roast. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeruselem 788 Posted August 11 Geez if the 5700XT has heat issues, dunno what the 5800 is gonna be like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mordenakhnen 46 Posted August 11 It's the VRAM temps that Timmy Joe has problems with, not the others. I've found with mine that the VRAM sits about 20°C above the GPU temp at idle, coolers specifically designed for these cards will undoubtedlt do a better job of cooling the VRAM and will probably have a higher max fan speed to boot. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr.Twinkie 16 Posted August 16 The new AIB sapphire 5700 and 5700 XT are $749 and $799 respectively on Mwave... Is that some sort of sick joke when a MSI 5700 MECH OC is $629? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gamble 76 Posted August 16 Looks like PowerColor released a good cooling card for the 5700xt, red devil series. The cards still do great against nvidia for the most part if you find them at the right (correct) price. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dasa 288 Posted August 28 Apparently the drivers for 5700XT have resulted in a drop in performance\power consumption for AMD GPU Here they test 590 but some people have shown it may affect Radeon VII so I will test this a little myself. https://www.pcgamer.com/amds-latest-drivers-drop-performance-by-10-or-more-in-some-games/ If true then cards that are not already at thermal\power limits may see a performance increase from future drivers. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jeruselem 788 Posted September 22 OK, you can flash 5700XT BIOS onto a 5700! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dasa 288 Posted September 22 Which unlocks the clock speed block up to 5700XT levels and maybe increases the power limit but nothing else. Should make the 5700 a better value option but keep an eye on VRM temps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeruselem 788 Posted September 23 (edited) I guess it can be done but the gains are pretty marginal anyway unless you have the cooling take the increased heat. Edited September 23 by Jeruselem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gamble 76 Posted September 23 I purchased a RX 5700 XT Gigabyte Gaming OC and should be here late this week. Something new to play with and pocket some extra cash from my RTX 2080 sale. Looks like similar heatsink as on my 2080 Gigabyte. Only could find a few reviews for it, one being from Gamers Nexus, looks like a good card. https://www.gamersnexus.net/hwreviews/3509-gigabyte-rx-5700-xt-gaming-oc-review-benchmark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gamble 76 Posted September 24 Nah, 5700 xt does good with 1440p especially with the games I play. Feel like the 2080 is going to lose value here soon... A bit of me wanted an all AMD rig too 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
