May be so, but with already owning a Vega64 Nitro+, I'm still waiting for the 5800XT (whenever that's gonna get released) before upgrading.

At 5120x1440p ME!!!!!!!!!!!!

Darren_uk · 2 Oct 2019 at 14:30

Had a little scare after installing the card, when turning the PC on had 4 fast Beeb's & that's it black screen ,
made sure PCE-E cables are ok turned on & same, found out in the end it was the bios switch got knocked between OC & silent mode was not fully over .

red eye · 2 Oct 2019 at 18:26

So how well does the ae overclock compared to normal xt?
Ocing lets me hold on to the gpu for longer
I’m on year 6 with my 290 but on console visuals.

EastCoastHandle · 2 Oct 2019 at 18:35

Well it's official

It's the exact same length of the Nitro Fury so no worries there if you still have one.

Also, I just noticed that they put 150W on my old Fury card heatsink and the heatpipes are copper. Not sure if that matters now with the 5700 Nitro+. The 5700 Nitro+ is a bit taller then the Fury Nitro though.

Another thing is that the plugs are inverted. I had to twist my 8 pin cables upside down in order for me to insert it. Not sure why they did that. But the quality is still there though.

Sorry for blurry port pic.

Ross Thomson · 2 Oct 2019 at 19:02

frequency OC does almost nothing unless you are benchmarking. Good memory OC's are not common

Panos · 2 Oct 2019 at 19:09

@Darren_uk welcome mate. Now. Take the card, open Wattman and start undervolting without touching the Power Limit.
The raise the memory speed to 890-910 and job done

Panos · 2 Oct 2019 at 23:16

Saw this tonight and feeling tempted to replace the X570 Taichi with Asus X570 Impact

I doubt it. It causes conflict issues and many experiencing instability, black screens and crashes. And stutter in many games when RTSS overlay is used.

Use Wattman which is perfectly fine and if you want can tell you how to use it

I am going to take you up on that offer.
I can't seem to get this sorted in BFV. It doesn't clock to game boost??
But in BF1 and BO4 it works flawlessly (FPS wise I have no idea what the clock rates are).

I've reset the video options in those games. Not sure what else I need to do.

Which drivers you use? Have you used DDU just in case to have nice fresh system?
What are your settings? Have you activated FPS cap on BFV either directly or through iChill? Because that could be a good reason.
Whats your CPU? BFV is CPU heavy and you might getting bottlenecked. Does the card work at 99% or less?

I stop using DDU. I used AMDCleanupUtility.exe found in *..*/Bin64/ of 19.9.3 drivers.
I now set resolution to 1440p and return scaling in game to 100%.
GPU Usage in BFV is between 80%+
Not sure what percentage it's at I haven't been paying any attention yet.

CTRL+SHFT+O when in game. It will open the overlay on the top right corner.
Also with ALT+R opens the control panel ingame to look different settings etc

Done, I had it at 90% so I cranked it up.
GPU usage is now at 80%+
