The Radeon RX 5700 XT Owners Thread.

[humbug]

Hi guys

I've just bought an Asus reference 5700 xt and have a question. With it at stock setting and running a benchmark like heaven it seems to be only running at around 1850 MHz with it maxed out. This is using Riva tuner for the read out. Just wondered what it should be boosting to?

Cheers

1850Mhz is on the low side but not outside of normal.

Nice. Is that the Bykski CPU and GPU block?

Looks cool. How long did it take you to get the block(assume byski?)

CPU block is a Bysksi one - got it from a Uk store so a couple of days.

GPU is an alphacool block took about 5 days from Germany.

I know it's reference so cooling is not as good as other cards, just thought it would be more like 2000 MHz.

They range (depending on silicon quality) from about 1800 to 1900, good AIB ones can go as high as 2000Mhz, overclocked about <2150Mhz.

In hot weather they might clock 50Mhz lower than they might in cooler weather. Make your case cooling as good as you can.

Cheers buddy that puts my mind at ease

My ref card bounces around from 1850-1900 at stock. If you want a locked frequency slap the power target to +50 & undervolt/underclock. I tend to run 1950/1000mv for 1900 or 2000/1050 for 1950. In this weather I've been using 1800/930mv As ever ymwv

 

[rob77]

I'm just trying it now at stock settings and when it first starts it's boosting to around 1910 MHz. As the temp rises it dropping slowly. Weird how I was trying it last night and it never went above 1850mhz. Maybe this heat doesn't help much

I'm just trying undervolting now at 1905/1016 and it really doesn't make much difference to the performance at all. But runs much cooler. I'm really liking this card I must say. I came from a 1070 ti founders edition that had served me well but I needed freesync. My pc is a mitx build hence I needed a blower type card

I came from a GTX 1070, which was a nice GPU (MSI Quicksilver) but the performance difference is sizable and clearly so, pretty damn happy with it.....

I ordered Bykski and it took 40 days to arrive and had to pay customs fee. In the end got to impatient and got an alphacool one so now I have an extra Bykski block that I'll need to put up on eBay.

GPU is an alphacool block took about 5 days from Germany

That's not bad considering the times we are in

Configure your trust, and let me know what you are looking for it. I may be interested.

Where did you get the reference card from? Rare as hens teeth these days.

Slightly off topic Matt but I have noticed recently how much AMD CPUs have improved and for brute performance really thrash their intel counterparts, it is not even close.

Well done AMD, I am looking forward to their 4XXX series CPUs.

Yep, think it might be time for you to make the switch Kaap. I think a 16 core 32 thread CPU would do you nicely.

I am waiting to see what the 4XXX series brings as I think they will be really good if AMD keep up the performance increases.

I have been following the AMD CPUs in the bench threads and they just keep getting better, sadly intel have stood still and are looking very tired at the moment.

Morning folks.
I am a new owner of the Red Devil 5700XT but I seem to be struggling with it. I very rarely see the card hit anything near the default clock speed, let alone the advertised boost speed. It is running stock on a fresh installation of Windows 10 with the following hardware;

MSI B450 Tomahawk
Ryzen 2600
16GB TUF DDR4 PC4-24000C16 3000MHz
Superflower Gold 650W PSU

The BIOS, GPU drivers and chipset are all up to date.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

I bought it used off of Facebook marketplace. There was a couple on eBay too but this one was just down the road and cheaper. I paid £300 in total and still has warranty from the supplier with receipt.

1905MHz (Game) /up to 1770MHz (Base) / up to 2010MHz (Boost)

all depends on the game and your system.

The card doesn't hold the same frequency constantly. The stock fan curve is pretty low so if your case is strangled for air flow the card will clock down to stay at its temp target.

Run superposition and loop at the power and clock speeds. Make sure you are running the OC bios not the quiet one.
