I was getting some jitters in GTA5 and Squad. Reinstalled Windows 10 last night and fresh copy of the latest crimson drivers and everything is running flawlessly. Have GTA on vsync running a constant 60fps on very high settings even in the most populated areas. Squad is on epic now for most settings and far smoother than before.

I was really sceptical a reinstall of the OS would make any difference but I was completely wrong.

Just out of interest did you wipe the hard drive and re-install or do it through the Windows reset/refresh in the settings section?

Thanks, this is the first time I'll be going from an nvidia to an amd in the same system, previously a new gpu went with a new build so I've never had to think about this. Now if that Nitro can hurry up pls :D

The RX 480 i put in a friends rig is running undervolted at 1.075v at stock clocks, with the memory voltage also undervolted at 0.9v. It runs at around 75-78c under sustained heavy load with about 70% fan speed maximum (3,000 RPM). The default voltage was 1.150v which indicates it was a high leakage chip, unfortunately i forgot to check the exact Asic rating before i finished building his system.

All 4 of my RX 480s are excellent overclockers on stock volts but I don't think I will be undervolting mine.:D
 
EKWB ordered. Hopefully it won't take too long to get here. Will post my results but don't actually expect much because I think I lost the silicon lottery! Haven't won that since my AMD Thunderbird AXIA core clocking at 1.6ghz lol.

Got mine :)

It was finally in stock in switzerland and I was able to get one!

So far so good,


after a couple of HD4770 and a few months with a Intel 530...
(cause there are no Win10 drivers for the Hd4770 and it was not worth looking anyway)

Witcher 3 looks a lot better now :P

I'm curious, what are your system specs.

I have an i540/HD6850, so I thought an RX480 would be bottle necked so was waiting for when I can make a new system.
