The Polaris RX 480 Owners Thread.

Is anyone able to explain how the min acoustic level and the minimum fan speed play nicely together in WattMan?

If I set the minimum fan to 1000rpm, does that mean I have to set the min acoustic level below that? Or doesn't it make a blind bit of difference?
 
My Nitro Crossfire System most times crashes in 3D Mark Benchens, only the benchmark not the whole system :) Games and all other stuff run very well without any problems. tried 16.8.1 and 16.8.2.. Any suggestions or others are running in same troubles ?

There's some pretty odd things in that thread. Can anyone with a Powercolor Devil confirm that power limit bug? Also, why were reviewers able to up it to 50%, were they running a different bios?

Agreed. I don't know if it is valid as i don't have one of those cards to test, but thought it might be worth sharing incase anyone has issues.

I have it, can only set +/-5% in wattmann. I'm a bit sceptical of flashing using a bios from reddit being hosted on google so will wait for something official.
 
I just received two emails back from Powercolor (read bottom to top)

AMDMatt, what do you think?

Hmm, not sure. I would probably side with Powercolor if they say that the post is not from them. I would test the card when you get it, the bug (as it is described) should be easy to reproduce.
 
Here's what wattman displays for me
