Ordered this yesterday, be here Monday can't wait. Sending my reference back as RMA too many issues with it Coul Whine, stuttering etc.

Does anyone recommend pci power cables that aren't daisy chain?
 
So thinking of upgrading from my Vega 64. Was looking at the nitro+, but then just saw the + special edition ;)
Would I see much real-world benefit on the special edition? I'm looking for more of a plug&play experience. The last year of working with Adrenaline 19/ wattman has left me bald.

Not worth it imo, around 10-ish fps depending on the game.
 
Coming from an GTX1070 I ordered the XFX RX 5700 XT THICC III Ultra
Does anyone have already experience with this card? Could just find 1-2 benchmarks
Mostly concerned about coil whine.

Seems like the driver are stable enough now so I hope I won't face huge problems.

Hi Gents & Lasses!

I have just joined the 5700xt Red Devil ranks. I have a quick question regarding power. I have a Corsair TXM850 which includes a single 8pin to a 2x 6+2 pin daisy chain. Is this suitable to power the card, or should I use 2 separate cables from the PSU?

Would it be possible to replace the PSU but use the same cables? Or would you recommend using new cables?

Unfortunate! Coil whine can be caused by a certain combination of PSU and GPU, so a PSU change might cure it.

You should only ever use the cables that came with your specific model of PSU far as I know, unless the manufacturer indicates otherwise.
