O OH and I was running the beta Radeon drivers, but I did try the WHQL drivers and they made no difference.

So I have a pretty nice system. Ryzen 7 5800X on a Asus Crosshair VIII Hero mobo paired with 16gb of 3200 CL16 RAM. And to top it all off, I managed to snag a 6900XT for MSRP. All this to say that I should not have any issues running anything. Here is the issue: specific games will refuse to...

Thank you to everyone who responded, I ended up simply repasting with some Arctic Silver 5 I had lying around, and blowing out any dust or debris that was in there over the past year I had the card. It seems to have dropped me around 2-5 C at the same fan speed. Not much, but it's something...

Not yet, but I'm pretty sure that is what I am going to end up doing since full on cooler replacements are seemingly impossible to find on a budget. Maybe some Kryonaut or Conductonaut will do the trick.

Sounds good! I can't believe I forgot about aftermarket pastes... I'll keep it in mind in case nothing better comes up. Thank you for the suggestion!

Thanks for the response, but I have already done some heavy tweaking with undervolting. It did indeed work wonders, but I want better. Basically, aftermarket or bust ;)

TLDR: What is the best, cheap solution (besides tweaking fan and voltage curves) to get my refernce Vega 64 cool and quiet? Hey everyone! I am making this thread because I have had it with my Sapphire Vega 64 (reference) being so freakishly loud. Right now, to keep my card from thermal...

This is very funny looking back two years later

Yup

(Answer to thread): I just seemingly got a bad draw from the silicone lottery. Hence the terrible OC'ing potential

To anyone who can help, i have started a new thread concerning a strange BIOS issue on my new motherboard. Here is the link if anyone is interested: http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-3463332/gigabyte-ax370-gaming-broken-bios.html And thanks in advance as always!

INFO: So I just upgraded my old FX system to a Ryzen system featuring a R7 1700 with my motherboard of choice being the Gigabyte AX370-Gaming K3. I enter into windows to make sure that everything is working properly (Windows 10 Home 64 bit to be precise) and install all my drivers for stuff like...

Ya I already mentioned how meaningless the difference would be. However that is not the main point of this post. I was just simply wondering why my GTX 1070 could not hit the speeds that every single reviewer or owner claims to have reached without even overclocking. Hell I had even built a PC...

My 1070 can barely hit the 1.95 GHZ mark however.
