I'm probably gonna take the time and lap the cooler when i get a waterblock. JC is pretty high on my card, however i have no stability issues nor throttling running stock clocks.

Yeah but who wants to run at stock settings

LMAO.. yes, you are physically altering it.
Most likely, but if you do it well maybe they won't notice
That's true lolYeah but who wants to run at stock settings

Mine also arrived yesterday and is on 105. Going to update it to 106. All in and running, no fuss.
Wondering if the people who've experienced problems when installing the card are running Win10 or 7? I'm running 7 and coming from nVidia and had no issues. Uninstalled all the nV software in safe mode, shut down, swapped cards, booted up and installed drivers.

DDU in safe mode does the trick.
Just a heads up on windows 7:
"Microsoft ended mainstream support for Windows 7 on January 13, 2015, but extended support won't end until January 14, 2020."
Is your card sapphire also?
Well, just altering the heatsink, I mean, just makeing it's base beautiful
Don't know if I'll lap. JT is pretty high at 1900/1090 mV. Guess I'm just gonna wait for a wblock.
For the ones that removed the heatsink, any warranty labels?
And one more, the stock tim stills considered better than any other solution? Mx2, 4, LM etc?
Associate
I didn't need DDU was more wondering if it was a Win10 problem or not. I'm fully aware of the end of official support of 7 but not bothered in the slightest.
Mine is a Sapphire. Undervolted to 988mv from a stock of 1098mv, mem running at 1100. TJunction has gone from 106 at stock to 94 undervolted.
Will be putting mine under water once there are blocks available.

Mines getting an EK block asap. I rebuilt my rig during the week ready!

Hoping that Heatkiller release a block for the VII so I can add it to my loop. Case is a Silverstone FT02.

That's beautiful like an alien city, can't work out even which way round it all is, awesome

Thanks. This picture should sort that for you.
Benchmarking sees a max junction temp of 72deg but that doesn't go above 53 while actually gaming.
Clocks are set at 1802/1100 but actually boosting 1873/1196 while gaming.
Very happy with that. More than double the performance of my 970GTX, gaming at 1440p on a 60Hz panel.

Welcome and on TROH.

To get on the Roll of Honour all you have to do is post a pic with your user name on it of your Radeon VII.
Had several blue screen of death whilst playing Resident Evil 2 in 4k. Removed all my GPU changes and still just had a crash so going to try stock CPU (which has been solid for over a year) just in case.
Not sure best way to log the GPU to see if it's overheating?

Just open wattman and minimise it and run the game.
Been solid for well over an hour now playing RE2 so can only assume my CPU or RAM were not 100% stable.
The junction temperature peak was 111*C whilst running at full stock, GPU temperature peak was 75*C.
Max core was 1850mhz and memory 1066mhz.

Its surprising how many systems seem stable until they get pushed a little harder with a GPU upgrade.
What CPU, Motherboard, RAM and PSU are you running?
1700X (was at 3.8Ghz @ 1.35V)
Asrock Taichi X370
32GB (2x16GB) Corsair DDR4 Vengeance LPX Black (was at 2800mhz CL14)
Seasonic Platinum 660w
If anything it was likely to be the RAM TBH, I had it at 2666mhz CL14 for a long time and changed it to 2800mhz a few months ago after a BIOS update and it had seemed solid until now.
Next step might put the CPU OC back and do some more gaming
Was just worried it was the GPU as that was the only change.Was previously running 290's in crossfire that almost maxed out the PSU without any issue, the Vega VII is quite tame in comparison, not going much over 450w total system power.

I'd use hwinfo to check which die your ram uses and use the ryzen dram calculator.1700X (was at 3.8Ghz @ 1.35V)

Have you got bios 5.1 running? 1.0.0.6 coding improved ram for me.
https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/X370 Taichi/#BIOS
For c14 you may need 1.4v+ on your ram depending on the kit, and depending on your 1700x IMC anything upto 1.2v SOC voltage.
