AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT

[Wonderer]

look at the text that i quoted

Excuse me, I might be little slow here, but I do not understand?

I am just asking, that is there something that I am missing here. Because IF the fan spins 42% of max, shouldn't it spin faster when it gets hotter? I mean like all the other cards start revving towards 100% when it gets hotter? Could You answer so that even I could understand, please?

Like stated here:

RX 5700 XT's temp :
Kitguru = 80'c
Computerbase = 85'c
overclock3d = 68'c
Techradar = 81'c
TPU = 92'c

hmm , TPU got worst card.

All other expert/professional review sites plus those in quote, which I consider good and tend to read as well as TechPowerUp, got results as follows:
Anandtech = 82 (gaming) / 84 (Furmark) degrees of Celsius
Guru3D = 76 degrees of Celsius
eTeknix = 76 degrees of Celsius
Techspot = 84 degrees of Celsius (out of the box) and 20% overclock + fan 100%, 70 degrees of Celsius

So that 'chart' is really saying that depending on: open bench, measurement tools, silicon lottery etc., one should expect temps like 75 to 85, averaging 80 degrees. Approximately. And this new guy Eykxas above mentions about same levels of temps as stated elsewhere by so called 'users'. Only one result is very different and I find it quite strange.

Don't get me wrong. I have been following Your good reviews quite a long time and I am still considering to read the articles in the future. This is one of the best sites for quality reviews.
I am not trying to be rude or anything like that, forgive me.

Could AMD give You another card if faulty? or maybe it is something with the drivers, that the result is so different?

Can You please enlighten me, I just cannot understand.

The BIOS is configured so that fan speed is limited to 42% / 2133 RPM, no matter how hot the card gets

I have done some test, my card is crashing when it reached 90° (oc with slow fan). It seems ok for the GPU but the memory get too hot and it's crashing.

Check hotspot, I think when it crosses 115°C, the card will shutdown/reboot

 

[Eykxas]

I think too. I have done this test because TPU report 92° and I can't get this temp. It's weird.

You got 90, I got 92, that's the same .. these temperature sensors are not super accurate, or maybe your room was 2°C cooler than mine

 

[Eykxas]

But why my card get hotspot which can crash it and not yours ?

With the same temp.

With the same temp.

what's your hotspot temp? maybe your chip is just more sensitive to heat

 

[Eykxas]

I don't know. I don't have any measuring device.

Just classic software (gpu-z, hwmonitor) which shows nothing.

latest gpu-z will show the hotspot temp, you might have to enable it in gpuz settings

 

[Eykxas]

Ok, thanks. I'll try this tonight.

@W1zzard Hey I just wanted to thank you for especially for the pcb spec and pics in this review. You saved me a lot of time in a little project I am working on with the Navi gpus in general. Once I get all the data I need and feel confident in I will share it here as well. A little tease on it a pretty easy way may be possible to shave a few degrees off almost all the parts that register temps. You pics really helped me understand how some of the parts were seeing lowing temp when they should not be affected by this tweak.

"Essentially, they are identical to what we've seen on RX Vega and Radeon VII: 43 dBA. Part of the problem is that AMD insists on sticking with blower-type coolers, which simply aren't up to the task "

What?? yeah they are, the problem isn't the Blower cooler, its the Thermal pad AMD used for one. number two, AMD has a pis-spoor Fan profile that runs the fan SO SLOW... i can set my blower fan to 50% and get way better cooling , the bios never really spins the fan up much at all!!

2.2 in my PC case (a DEEPCOOL MATREXX 55) i cant even hardly here my GPU fan while gaming, if you use a headset, UR NOT GOING TO HEAR IT... mics are on the left ear (most of the time, if you have ur PC on that (left side) ur headset (mic) will not pick it up either... iv even checked this with fan set manually to 100% yeah that is very loud! but I do not care,

i wish AMD would have made the 5700 XT similar to the Vega 64 LC (Liquid Cooled) Version for the $449 50th Anniversary Edition $price tag!, i would have bought that one instead.

but all well... im fine with the blower cards, and i actually prefer the AMD built (Reference Design) blower cooler cards over the customs cards, i have bought custom boards before (7870 Double D by XFX) it was complete JUNK.. the cooler sucked, it got hot, went back to AMD's Reference 7870 and i never went back to a custom card and i never WILL ever again.. had a saphire and or an xfx rx 480 and an EVGA GTX 1080 8GB Air cooled, i ended up geting a hybrid AIO kit for it, never looked back, done with custom PCbs, almost every single "Custom PCB" every single one either has FAILED, or needed to be modifed to prevent card from failing (aka water cooling it)

my 5700XT. im planing on installing an AIO on mine anyway... i have an old "ARCTIC ACCELERO Extreme III Hybrid aio (had on my Reference R9 290 4GB gpu and never had any issues even Overclocked my R9 290 gpu by 10% and core never got above 60C i even removed teh copper vapour chamber off the AMD reference cooler frame and basicaly turned my AMD Ref. R9 290 in to an AMD Radeon R9 290 Hybrid 4GB GDDR5 Card... with the AMD shrowd cut out for the hoses to come out but was still stock looking, im gonna do the same thing to my 5700 XT (at some point) so it doesnt matter anyway blower or not... only because amd's fan profile is useless!

AMD's blower style coolers look horrible on top of the fan profile you mention. The Radeon VII cooler not only looks great, it does a great job cooling too.
