Why is everyone hyping this card so much? If you look at the hotspot temp, its still 91°c like the old one and in my opinion, its because of all the plastic. Its trapping heat too much.
The 'Hot Spot' temperature still seems a bit high. Though surely within spec, on my Asus RoG Strix 5700 XT the 'Hot Spot' temperature doesn't go over 82°C. The other temperatures and fan speed are similar to my card, so those seem good now.
I have the THICC 3 and it is very large, it barely fit in my case, but it is also really quiet. I play in 4K all the time but it tends to crash at high settings, this is probably because the driver is incompatible or I need to overclock it some more.
I game at 3840x1080, super ultrawide 32:9 aspect ratio. At least for the last year since I was finally able to afford the 49”. Previous to that I gamed at 2560x1080 standard ultrawide aspect. The only 4K displays I have are technically tv’s, which i have tried hooking up to... but I either experience an input lag or drop in FPS that make it unplayable IMO, even using a Radeon VII or a RTX 2080 I still will not play on a 4K television
I'm with you on this one. Card is simply too big for my case, and if I can get the thicc 2 that's 13mm shorter, it'll just fit. How important are those temps though? Does it cause constant crashes?

Hi will 5700xt thicc iii be good for my Ryzen 5 2600? And should i use water cooling system on this to minimize the temperature or should i use 8 fans instead Thanks for answering
Without listing the Max boost Frequency for each card the thermal data is Questionable!! For a Card That's supposed to be an Improvement over the Thicc II, you would think you would want to show as much Data as possible to silence to critics! Should be interesting to read the Web Review when it's out!
I have THICC III, and if you are considering buying this card, don't! It's still overheating, with the fans spinning loud as hell. The driver crashes all the time.

It still functions great for me, the VRM temperatures for me are like 51 degrees Celsius tops for me, though the memory sometimes can get as hot as 88 degrees with the stock fan curve, but I think my oven of a case is probably to blame, too. I will also be upgrading my NZXT H510i to Corsair's 4000D Airflow with 2 Noctua 140mm fans as intake, 1 Noctua 120mm fan as exhaust and the original fans the case comes with will be used as the top exhaust.

You show very limited info for a good review and analysis. What is the test scenario here? Open bench? closed case? What Bios was selected? What are the operating frequencies? I have a Thicc 3 card and it gets around 80ºC+ on closed case and boosts up to 2150Mhz @ stock and get a bit noisy cause it reaches above 3000Rpm Also there shoul be more FPS differences bettween the 2 cards.
This is an oxymoron btw. More fans equals always more noise. I would bet my left nut that because of the larger fans together with the updated revision of the thicc 2 paired with a custom fan curve, you can run it with slower rpm and with that quieter than the thicc 3.
It's a good improvement from THICC II, glad XFX listen to their customers.
I was watching gamers nexus thinking wait the cards really that bad? Then realized the video was about the thicc 2

My CPU was maybe usuing 40-50%..but it still bottlenecked my system HARD! You can easily get a Ryzen 3 3100 and a mobo for a 200 bucks give or take, keep that ram you have, and upgrade your GPU. If your ram is under DDR4 3200..I recommend upgrading that as well. Your CPU and GPU are the most important things to upgrade from what I see.
I have just ordered this..don't know how it is going to perform with my intel i7700k.
Runs very well with my 6700k at 5ghz bud.
I ordered it to go with my Ryzen 5 3600. I'm a little apprehensive. We'll see.
Got this today. This card is amazing but a bit loud at 2000rpm. running at 70c.
@@Amanpreetsingh01 Mine revved up all to hell when I first ran a game, and scared the shit outta me. lol
@@OutlawCaliber13 I have just paired this with 3900x and msi x570 tomahawk but getting cpu debug signal on on motherboard. I have updated the bios as well. Any suggestions?
Song at 1 min mark? Not in description
So is this the "best" 5700 xt card?
No
great video.
Dunno why but you remind me of jamie vardy
I have the thicc iii ultra but i have problems with game crashes... anyone knows why?
either drivers or a bad card
Mine heats up and crashes my system all the time , i've even turned the fans up through the software , it's the worse card i've ever had
Seems like xfx took a page from gigabyte with those three fans
i have the same gpu but my temps are getting up to 80 degrees and i have good airflow in my case can someone help
Mine is 79-80 Untra 1440p I don't have any problems with this temperature.
How in the world do you get 62 C on this card??
I'm like at 80 C with 2300 RPM
Mine is coming today, I'll let you know what my temps are.
@@user-yw9fm7kb1s so what are the temps
$ 730 AUD for the thicc 3 in Australia at current prices 😎
I managed to snag one on sale for MSRP at PCCaseGear if you wanted to pick one up for yourself.
@@raptorjesus3894 thanks for the tip. 😎
i saw one for only 340€ on black friday (idk in aud)
Is this reference board dementions
Meh, still has that cheap pieces of shit around the card, making it look bigger than it really is.
And did they fix backplate design? Because from the photos it looks like they didn't change it
This things running apex at 20 fps and call of duty at like 30, league is at 240 but stutters alot. Anybody help me please, i just built a 2000$ pc and i cant get it to run any games right. Update: i had my hdmi plugged into myotherboard and not my gpu. Why nobody tell me this in the videos i feel stupid as hell...
Rip
im in love with this card but im afraid that i might bottleneck it
@DankMemeKidan i7 8700k
@@dulla8469 you should be ok
thanks
You show very limited info for a good review and analysis.
What is the test scenario here? Open bench? closed case?
What Bios was selected?
What are the operating frequencies?
I have a Thicc 3 card and it gets around 80ºC+ on closed case and boosts up to 2150Mhz @ stock and get a bit noisy cause it reaches above 3000Rpm
Also there shoul be more FPS differences bettween the 2 cards.
Brilliant. Thanks for your contribution!
@@Vortez my comments are constructive, dont get me wrong
Xfx makes best looking cards
1600p 60hz on this card.
This is an oxymoron btw. More fans equals always more noise.
I would bet my left nut that because of the larger fans together with the updated revision of the thicc 2 paired with a custom fan curve, you can run it with slower rpm and with that quieter than the thicc 3.
