Hello there. I've been having issues with my RX 5700 card since I bought it. I've tried everything, nothing helped. I've seen some people talking about undercloking/undervolting but I'm not sure what that process implies exactly, so I'm looking for advice here. [If you'd like more info, I'll provide you with everything I can!]
Some of the things I've been trying over the past few days:
* To test for crashes I'm using Geeks3D's FurMark running a custom GPU stress test with the following settings: 1920x1080 Fullscreen, Anti-aliasing: 8X MSAA.
** I'm also using GPU-Z to log all the data from the GPU into .txt files. I wanted to provide all these logs but I can't find a easy way to upload them.
*** GPU Tweak II is installed as well and is set to the "Gaming Mode" preset
All the settings in Radeon Software (Currently on 20.7.2 which is not the latest [The latest one is 20.8.2], but the issues have been present in all the previous drivers versions that I've tried in the 2020 driver lineup) are left on default with the "Standard" preset being selected in the Setting Advisor.
FreeSync is disabled in software as well as in the monitor settings themselves.

- The test was done without changing anything which resulted in a crash causing the PC to instantly restart with the GPU fans ramping up to 100% where I was forced to manually hold the power button to shut it down.
- The test was done with the "Power Limit" option in Radeon Software set to -5% which resulted in the same type of crash.
- The test was done with the preset "Silent Mode" in GPU Tweak II selected which resulted in the same type of crash.
- The test was done with the option "Undervolt GPU" under the Auto Tune section in Radeon Software which resulted in the same type of crash.
- The test was done with the PCIe option in BIOS being changed from Auto/Gen 4.0 to Gen 3.0 which resulted in the same type of crash.
- The test was done with the setting "Maximum Frequency" option under GPU Tuning in Adrenaline Software being set to -10% which resulted in the same type of crash.
