Someone, Betsy maybe, already said this but if you have mates with a x370 Asus board, 3rd gen Ryzen and the 5700 XT they will have an unimaginable bad time with incompatibility. The secret is to change the Asus x370 bios PCIe setting from Auto to Gen 3. 10 hours of acute headache for that.

Here's my 5700XT Sapphire pulse for TROH. Arrived and installed yesterday and I'm really liking it even though I've not tweaked anything. It's silent at idle and I can't hear anything whilst gaming.
