Review on Radeon Installed Triple Model ROG STRIX RX5700XT O8G GAMING by Adam Kowalski ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

How could such a bad product be made?

Very good cooling system. Only it is not adjacent to the chip. GPU separately, heatsink - separately. In one evening, at GPU temperatures around 100 degrees, the chip began its fast path to degradation - the meager crumbs (why did you regret it?) of the thermal paste turned black, the chip itself changed its color on one side and began to burn out. I didn’t even look at the HotSpot temperature on the first day, but judging by the trend, it should have been at least 110. I sacrificed the warranty by not waiting for the card to die to see it all. In order to bring the ASUS ROG STRIX RADEON 5700 XT 8GB OC high-end product back to normal, you need to do the following: 1. Flash a new BIOS. Minus 7-9 degrees. 2. Correct the design of the cooling system, sharpening where necessary, replacing the thermal paste, pressing the heatsink harder against the board. minus 10 degrees) 3. To neutralize the effect of gravity on 1.5 kg of aluminum - install the board vertically, open the side wall of the case so that the air goes up. Minus 10 degrees. Thus, you turn this hacky and "HIGH-END product for demanding gamers who are not ready to compromise, with a temperature of 100 degrees" into a normal, conditionally cold video card that heats up to 68-70 degrees under load. Now you know why bloggers on YouTube have these cards warm up to 70-75, and you have up to 100. Moreover, if you bring this card to the service, they will tell you - everything is in order, here is a new BIOS for you, go ahead, sin further - AMD allows up to 110. Until a blogger with the nickname hardware unboxed released a video about these cards in January, ASUS was not even going to move. Burn it, as they say, with a blue flame. Literally. And in February they wrote that there is a problem and they will change the screws from April on some individual cards. We wish them luck in this and will not buy this hundred-degree game. PS: And then they say "AMD chips are very hot." PPS: What is blazing and burning? It is no longer Palit.
