I'm sorry guys - I just barely found a fix. The fix isn't related to EDID spoofing, or custom resolutions or anything of the sort; but rather, it's related to a phenomenally dumb design decision that Dell made with my monitor model (the P2715Q, specifically). Apparently on this model of...

Hey folks, I have a slightly-older AMD Ryzen laptop, with integrated Vega 8 graphics. This is the specific laptop I have: https://www.newegg.com/mystic-silver-huawei-matebook-d-53010crg-mainstream/p/N82E16834324036 My problem is that I'd really like to connect an external 1440p monitor to it...

Any other 5700 XT users around? I think CP2077 is officially the hardest thing I've thrown at mine. Have to use Medium settings to get even 60-70 FPS at 1440p. I really do want to play this game, but... I think I'd honestly rather wait until they tune the game some more, or I get a better GPU...

Awesome man, nice choice. It's nice to see other people discovering and recognizing Asian action films. I watched Master Z myself just a few weeks ago and enjoyed it. American action movies are so boring by comparison. I used to think I didn't like action films, but as soon as I discovered Hong...

Sounds like you need some classic Hong Kong action movies. Some of the best action movies I've ever seen are from Hong Kong, and they still tend to make modern Hollywood movies look lame in comparison, even on a shoestring budget. John Woo's "Hard Boiled" is a masterpiece in this regard. Some...

I reached out to a representative from PowerColor who is active on Reddit, and told him about the issues with VRAM temperature reaching over 90 degrees celsius on the Red Devil (which IMO, is unacceptable for a cooler of this caliber). I also provided a couple of examples of other scattered...

I'm not sure. I don't think I'm feeling adventurous enough to disassemble my card and find out either. I wish that a channel like GamersNexus or someone would do a detailed tear-down of this card, but I'm not sure if anyone has really done it yet. If you have time, please try this: Run any game...

I'm running 3.60 on my Asrock X470 Taichi. No complaints from me.

Can you guys report what memory temperature you're getting while under load? After several minutes of straight load, my memory temps reach up to 92 or 93 C. And to top it off - this isn't even on a reference card, but rather, a Powercolor Red Devil that I just picked up a few days ago. Regular...

AIB navi designs are still very new, and people are snatching them up pretty much immediately. I've seen the Red Devil XT appear on Newegg and Amazon for all of about 2 minutes before getting sold out again. Non-XT models less so, but even those are still selling out pretty quickly. Powercolor...

Dang, where did you manage to pick up the 5700 XT THICC already? I assume you're in Europe?

If 19.8.1 is WHQL, then that doesn't seem good. On the RX 5700, hardware video acceleration is completely broken in browsers, and Wattman completely bugs out for me sometimes, making me reboot my PC to get it working again.

Ah, right, I actually saw that tool linked on Reddit. Very tempting. I may give that a try soon. Edit: I take back what I said about the card running 100% stable at 1800Mhz at 975mv. Had a driver crash during a round of KF2, so I'll probably dial down the clocks a bit. I'll continue tweaking.

I've tinkered with my 5700 a bit further. I set the GPU clock all the way up to 1850Mhz, the highest Wattman will allow it to go. Since I can't seem to set the voltage any lower than 975mv, I moved the Power Limit down to -10% to see if I could make the card run a bit cooler while also still...

I guess I spoke too soon. I did a clean wipe of both my GPU and chipset drivers, ran DDU in safe mode, and re-installed everything again. That seemed to fix my issue with "stuck sensors", and now my fan speed is properly ramping down after exiting a game. Which is odd, because I'm pretty sure I...

I bit the bullet and recently bought an RX 5700 (reference model). Right off the bat, I'm getting a weird bug where, after I exit out of a game, the card's sensors "freeze up" and the temperature readings stay the same, the fan speed stays the exact same... even though when I physically reach...

Yeah, I should have clarified that I meant the higher-end Nitro and Toxic variants, which are yet to be released. I'm interested to see how those stack up against the Red Devil. This is still very tempting though, assuming it doesn't sell out immediately.

PowerColor has launched their full line up for the 5700 Cards, including the Red Devil, and the slightly-lower end Red Dragon. Since the Red Devil is their flagship, here's a link to the TechPowerup analysis: https://www.techpowerup.com/review/powercolor-radeon-rx-5700-xt-red-devil/ They gave...

I'd say it's ready. I bought my 3700X a couple weeks after launch, and some things were a bit rough, but the update to AGESA 1.0.0.3 ironed out any issues that I had. It's been smooth sailing for me ever since. Since then I've also upgraded to the newer chipset drivers + AGESA 1.0.0.3 ABB, but...

Title, basically. Over the past year, I've been accustomed to only changing the P6 and P7 states on my Vega 64. I usually set both of these to 1000mv for my particular undervolt. But now that WattMan allows you to change every P-State, I wonder if I should do something differently? I've noticed...

I want a PC case with the following features: Support for vertically-mounted GPU (or maybe the proper term is "sideways" or "parallel" mounted... you know what I mean) External 5.25" drive bays (I still like having a Blu-Ray drive in my machine) Remove-able dust trays (including on both the...

In most cases - unless you get a bad chip - a Vega 56 can be undervolted and overclocked to run at the same speed as a Vega 64, with very little effort. BIOS flashing probably isn't necessary, IMO; you can most likely do it within Wattman. The two models are very close to each other as-is. In...

Yes. Vega64 is a big, power-hungry GPU, and you want one of the higher-quality AIB models with a good cooler on it. Sapphire Nitro and Powercolor Red Devil are the best models, AFAIK. The ASUS Strix model is just OK. Gigabyte's version of the card is reportedly the worst (which is also probably...

Just like the older FOSS version of Memtest86+, PassMark's own version of Memtest86 (which is actually still maintained and updated) should behave similarly, in that it should just run forever until you shut it off. Edit: I lied, it looks like Memtest86 only runs a few passes by default, and...

If you have an RX 580 or a GTX 1060, you should have absolutely no problem running this game at 1080p/60fps with High settings (or even Ultra settings). For reference, the game isn't much more demanding than the previous entries in the series (Far Cry 4/Primal). The game looks gorgeous though...

I love the these games, and I pretty much insta-preordered Far Cry 5 on Steam as soon as it became available. Unlike the older titles in the series, the campaign in this one is supposedly 100% playable in co-op. Personally though, as much as I enjoy playing games with friends, I think I'd...

I recently got a new PC (a Dell Inspiron 5675). Everything's working great, except that after I installed and started using Chrome, I noticed that my cookies would be completely wiped out every time I closed and re-opened the browser. I'm talking, like, really common sites such as Gmail...

Sorry for the delayed response. I went ahead and added a post in the main Vega Builders thread: http://www.portvapes.co.uk/?id=Latest-exam-1Z0-876-Dumps&exid=threads/amd-vega-builders-thread-rx-64-rx-56.2516510/page-5#post-39103634 tl;dr: GPU temps are in mostly good shape, but could be better. Thermal application and...

According to the developer of GPU-Z himself, the "GPU Hotspot" temperature is located directly inside of the GPU die. It is not a VRM temperature sensor. https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/716edj/rx_vega_56_morpheus_ii_hotspot_temp/...

I carefully re-seated chipsinks on all of the VRMs and MOSFETs that require it, re-applied thermal paste to the die, and then re-seated the cooler. "Hot Spot" temperature has maybe improved a little bit, but not by much. After running 3DMark for several minutes, the Hot Spot temperature sensor...

Hey guys. I appreciate the advice, but I'm not convinced that my PSU is at fault here. Consider the following: I tried lowering the Power Limit in Wattman to -15%, and then booted up 3DMark to see what would happen. To be fair, yes, I was able to run the benchmark much longer this time without...

I'm beginning to wonder if I don't have good enough heatsink contact on the card's VRMs and MOSFETs. I thought I did, but in hindsight, there are some areas where I could've done better. Tomorrow I think I'll try disassembling the cooler re-applying the heatsinks to see if that helps.

Today I installed a MORPHEUS II CORE cooler on my Vega64. It doesn't look like I've broken anything (yet); the system boots with no issues. But, when when I run a graphics-intensive program such as 3DMark, the program will either crash or shut down my PC entirely after just a couple of minutes...

I have an MSI Z97-G45 GAMING motherboard, and a Corsair H80i CPU cooler slapped on top of it, with two fans in a push-pull configuration. I had both of those fans plugged in directly to the H80i, which regulated the speed just fine. I understand there is this software called "Corsair Link"...

This is the most important thing. I've only put a couple of hours into DiRT 4 so far, but I'm completely thrilled with it. It's probably the largest and most comprehensive offroad-racing package that a video game has ever offered, in my eyes. But, Dirt: Rally it is not. If you're only...

Ah, this is a detail I accidentally left out of my original post. I've had GPU-Z running the whole time, and I'm pretty confident that the issue is not related to temperature or fan speed. On load, the card doesn't get much higher than ~80 C. My fan speed currently maxes out at 2500 RPM, which...

I recently upgraded to an RX 580. Specifically, it's the XFX GTR-S model, which is factory-overclocked to 1,430MHz. However, since the card is advertised as having a "1,450MHz OC+ Capable Clock", I overclocked it in WattMan to 1,450MHz. After playing Ghost Recon: Wildlands for about an hour, I...

I'm having some issues with this driver. DiRT: Rally refuses to run in fullscreen mode for me now. Also, I noticed that when my screensaver turns on, my screen just shows the message "This screen saver can't run because it requires a newer video card or one that's compatible with Direct3D". It's...

I recently upgraded from a cheap boombox, to an actual, proper sound system for the first time (a receiver and two speakers). These are my components: Onkyo TX-8020 stereo receiver (50w/channel) Onkyo SKF-4800 floor-standing speakers (pair) One thing I've noticed, is that if I turn up the...

I've been playing RE7 since it unlocked on Steam a few hours ago. If the rest of the game is as good as the first 2 hours, then it's easily GOTY material for me. It's a masterpiece, from both a design standpoint and a technical standpoint. They did a fantastic job at making you really feel like...
