Even undervolted and underclocked, hotspot hits 110 C after 30 seconds of 'torture' with AIDA64, which is also potentially dangerous. RMA and replacement process has started https://www.igorslab.de/en/amd-rade...apor-chamber-affected-the-replacement-begins/

I'm not sure what's best to do, I've lost a bit of trust in AMD since getting this card, I've got quite the case of buyers regret and Knowing what I know now I'd have not purchased it.

O well, I hope there are no more hidden supprises.

Bear in mind they will RMA. At least they are not denying the problem like Nvidia did with bad bonding material (solder gate, that wasn't really the solder.).

Scott says the issue with the vapor chamber is simply too little water inside
