    For anyone over clocking a RX 5700 using the More Power Mod by Igor's lab, don't use Radeon Wattman to OC the GPU, no matter what voltage/core clock you give, the GPU will keep on crashing, for my case, the limit was 1900mhz at 1047mV.
    Use MSI Afterburner to OC the GPU, right now my RX 5700 reference is running at 2000mhz at 1135mV+ 50% power limit, all stable, in Igor's MPT mod change the "Power Limit GPU" under the "Power and Voltage" tab from 150W to 180W for better stability, also don't forget to change "Maximum Power Limit" to 50 under "Overdrive Limits" tab to unlock the power limit slider in OC softwares .
    Played Witcher 3 heavily modded for 2 hrs straight and then R6 Siege for 3 hrs, no crash. Also played Control for 1.5 hr, no crash recorded till now.

    @christopherwagner7781 4 роки тому +1

    No you can try a bios flash and use the xt bios. I already did it to mine works good but takes a lot more power to run. And without the water block probably would over heat and throttle.

  • @praetorxyn
    @praetorxyn 4 роки тому

    Watercooling is for silence and aesthetics. When you have enough radiator surface area (with low RPM optimized rads like the Hardware Labs Black Ice SR-2 / Nemesis GTS), you can run your fans at around 800 RPM or less even under load, so you shouldn't hear anything if you properly decouple the punp from the case and set your punp to the highest speed you cannot hear it.
    It also just looks really bad ass in a case like the Lian Li O11 XL.
    It's not really worth the cost just for the potential extra performance if noise is not a concern.

    This is just for those that really enjoy overclocking. I think AMD wise it's more fun to have an 2700X and a Vega 64. And yes I have those ( both bought new, 2700X for the normal retail price and the Vega 64 for cheap). Also know the new generations are faster. Just saying if you love overclocking and/or you're going for value for money it's probably the better choice (or well that generation, could be a 2600 with a Vega 56 too or any combination) since you can actually overclock them really well....

    This is why im dubious when people say they are getting 5700XT performance out of a 5700. They must just mean stock. Especially since you can UV/OC or just increase power limit on a 5700XT and get quite a large jump in performance.

      Good info, but I was referring to the gpu core clock being already maxed or limited by AMD for safety reasons. Same with the memory clock speed (25-50 MHz is not an overclock). This is there first product featuring this new technology and they had some limitations. Which is why it is called "RDNA Hybrid". That is why I said to wait for RDNA 2 (the real/Full RDNA architecture).

    So, by UK pricing, that's a £320 card with a £135 waterblock and probably £15-20 worth of fittings... so about £475 total. That could get you the very highest end air cooled 5700XT (Strix etc) or almost a 2070 Super FE (£489 at the moment) instead. I'm going to guess the answer is "no, it's not worth it".
