    [SOLVED] Is this upgrade necessary or is my current PSU enough?

    I thought so. Well I wanted to buy a RX 5700 XT or 2070 Super but the I managed to find a 1080 Ti for about 30% cheaper than the average asking price for those two.

    I did a benchmark just now and it seems the framerate doesn't drop with undervolted GPU. But I still wonder why the frequency is fluctuating. I feel like I'm not unleashing the full potential of my RX 570.

    [SOLVED] High RX 570 GPU temperatures

    Hello ladies and gents. I recently bought a Gigabyte RX 570 4GB and I noticed that the temperatures exceed 75 degrees and almost top 80 degrees during heavy load.
