    The AMD Driver Thread

    I'm working on that, setting up Windows to run off an external usb stick. Will see how that goes. The PSU must be 4 years old now.

    The AMD Driver Thread

    I installed 20.5.1 last week and within hours was being hit with regular black screen crashes that had not been occuring since I installed my 5700 XT back in April. The BSC were occuring so often I had to remove my 5700 XT and go back to my old R9 290 X for the moment. prior to that 20.5.1...

    The Radeon RX 5700 XT Owners Thread.

    The last listed update for Windows on my system was 26th May. This run of black screen crashing started on June 5th. So 10 clear days with no issue until the problem hit, hmm. Given the random nature, it's hard to determine anything by removing that update I would think. I will look at setting...

    The Radeon RX 5700 XT Owners Thread.

    Prior to installing 20.5.1, and the apparent long spell of no issues, the MB was running on pcie auto and no recent chipset driver update or bios update had been applied (Crosshair Hero VI). The bios is the latest anyway (7704). Following 20.5.1 and the sudden wave of black screen crashes, I did...

    Having the same issue myself, quite badly. Nothing I have tried (drivers, registry hacks, disabling hardware acceleration etc) has worked..

    The Radeon RX 5700 XT Owners Thread.

    As of today, I have had to remove my Red Devil 5700 XT from my system and put back in my old RX 290. Reason, black screen of death crashes plaguing me over the last few days, with no solution to this sudden random outbreak. Reinstalling drivers, (20.5.1) or using older drivers has not helped...

    It is odd reading all this, as to date there have been no boot problems at all with my 4.015Ghz overclock (BCLK 110, RAM at 2933Mhz) cold boots are all fine. This on the Crosshair VI Hero, with bios 082. No crashes in Windows during daily use either, all has been smooth. Ok, I lie, there was...

    There are some Cinebench scores out there I don't quite trust. Yours here, like mine seems to be around the average for a 4Ghz Oc, the vast majority posted being in the 1750-1780 range. Then there are a very, very small minority I have seen posted, for approx the same OC but scoring up at 1900...

    *** Official Ryzen Owners Thread ***

    I had considered that myself, so have been keeping an eye on that. So far it's holding up and its still snug, and it's been three weeks :) At some point I might swap the 'card plate' sandwich layer out for rubber washers, but then the force is not evenly spread out. I'm also wondering if the...

    Yes it will. However, as others have pointed out, stand offs on an AM3 back plate are longer than those on an AM4 back plate. Meaning that for AM3 coolers that screw down, the thread is likely to bottom out before the correct pressure is applied to the CPU. (Because the Ryzen CPU's sit lower...

    Same RAM for me, although I have 32GB installed and so far it will only reach 2933Mhz, which it runs fine at. I'm not sure whether or not this is going to be the limit for four sticks of this particular RAM, as sure, I have seen people hit 3200mhz with two sticks but so far haven't come across...

    So far I have managed to get my 32Gb of Corsair 3200C16 LPX running at 2933Mhz (stable enough for my usage so far). with the default timings. It required a 110 BCLK with 36.5 multiplier and both DRAM voltage and boot voltage set to 1.35v Any attempt to clock it higher on the current bios (1002)...
