@@wimpie031 I bought an ASRock Taichi version of the 5700XT which has similar boost clocks to thicc 3. First thing I would do is undervolt the GPU. Too much heat and power for that 5% extra performance. And a custom fan curve. That should help. And proper airflow in the casing.
I am still using this card today. Most games are played on three HP 25es. Eyefinity setup as 5760x1080p is very immersive with HOTAS or Wheel and pedals. Paid @ $450 new. Have seen them be sold used for $1200+ and am planning on keeping mine for a while yet.
@@Vortez Hi I want to give u a question about this. I ordered XFX RX 5700XT Thicc III Ultra from amazon(it is on the way) and some people shared differents of isues on amazon reviews. Is it true or false? Have you ever see someone gets grapich card's issues from this model? I don't want it to happen to me either
@@x_two6ix_x I find this slightly worrying. No comparing with either card. If he is sponsored by this particular card manufacturer, would he have to disclose this in the description?
If you check, we haven't reviewed either card by Saph or PC. The most obvious comparison for this v3 was to compare vs v2 which we had reviewed. Web review will have comparison to other cards we have reviewed as I clearly stated. (it will be published soon).
Its the The Top of the line in the 5000 series Cards been buying XFX for years and will continue and remmember when they were the Old Pine group Company back in the day
Just ordered this along with a Ryzen 9 3900X. I'm making an upgrade to 1440p from 1080p. I hope it'll get me going for at least a year before the new cards come out. Also cool review, boss man
I have a question. Could you please tell me did the XFX AMD Radeon™ RX 5700 XT 8GB GDDR6 THICC III Ultra is compatible with the Razer Chroma X eGPU and will work with MacBook Pro 16” 2020?
@@deveneleven400 Yeah just make sure the guy has sold tons of other stuff and has good reviews, also eBay has a money back guarantee, so if it ends up broken on arrival you can probaly get a refund
I have a xfx Rx 5700 thicc 3 but it doesn't say ultra on the box is there a non ultra version of the thicc 3? As I can not find any videos on this card other than the ultra version
Without listing the Max boost Frequency for each card the thermal data is Questionable!! For a Card That's supposed to be an Improvement over the Thicc II, you would think you would want to show as much Data as possible to silence to critics! Should be interesting to read the Web Review when it's out!
Why is everyone hyping this card so much? If you look at the hotspot temp, its still 91°c like the old one and in my opinion, its because of all the plastic. Its trapping heat too much.
I have THICC III, and if you are considering buying this card, don't! It's still overheating, with the fans spinning loud as hell. The driver crashes all the time.
I game at 3840x1080, super ultrawide 32:9 aspect ratio. At least for the last year since I was finally able to afford the 49”. Previous to that I gamed at 2560x1080 standard ultrawide aspect. The only 4K displays I have are technically tv’s, which i have tried hooking up to... but I either experience an input lag or drop in FPS that make it unplayable IMO, even using a Radeon VII or a RTX 2080 I still will not play on a 4K television
XFX has to many problems AMD should drop them as a partner I had to re do my thermal paste for the die and my pads for the vrm on my 390x do to lack of , once I did that it stopped over heating and even stopped going much above 70c even to this day
I have just brought the Thicc 3 I don't know you are getting 65c in witcher 1440p Max just tried myself to see what i'd get im getting 70c even 75c consistently anyone know why this could be?
Also as a additional question if anyone can help since I have installed this GPU I have been having issues with my audio in games stuttering / audio cutting in and out really confusing.
mby previous drivers you had installed? And regarding the temps mby you just have worse airflow in your case...btw how loud is the card I'm thinkng of getting it as it is the cheapest 5700xt i can find
@@jurekompara6396 I tried everything in terms of drivers nothing to do with airflow (I'm not a noob) the card in terms of performance was fine from what I could tell and then noise levels were almost perfect. I never buy/keep bad cards I do my diligence before hand. But AMD driver issues are out of my hand.
@@jurekompara6396 I could of got any 5700 xt if I wanted but chose that one was even thinking of getting liquid devil but too much f*cking about. Just be careful with AMD driver you might not have any issues but you might have issues.
The 'Hot Spot' temperature still seems a bit high. Though surely within spec, on my Asus RoG Strix 5700 XT the 'Hot Spot' temperature doesn't go over 82°C. The other temperatures and fan speed are similar to my card, so those seem good now.
I'm with you on this one. Card is simply too big for my case, and if I can get the thicc 2 that's 13mm shorter, it'll just fit. How important are those temps though? Does it cause constant crashes?
I have the THICC 3 and it is very large, it barely fit in my case, but it is also really quiet. I play in 4K all the time but it tends to crash at high settings, this is probably because the driver is incompatible or I need to overclock it some more.
Hi will 5700xt thicc iii be good for my Ryzen 5 2600? And should i use water cooling system on this to minimize the temperature or should i use 8 fans instead Thanks for answering
I just got the thicc ultra 3 and I have a ryzen 7 2700x and I downloaded all the drivers for the gpu and my game sometimes freezes for about 5 seconds when playing modern warfare. This never happened when I had my gtx 760 4Gb card. I did get rid of all the nvidia drivers before installing this gpu but still have minor issues. Any help will be awesome
I reckon the Sapphire Pulse gets better temps, If that's what your after. But good luck finding a reasonable shipping date if you order online, they're all out of stock :(
@@bmxismylife123 I did eventually, but I can't really recall the sizes.I think I went for 1mm for the VRAM. For the MOSFET It was either 1.5 or 2mm. I can't remember which one actually. Looks like I have a bad memory😢
@@elrater0999 Damn, there's absolutely no information online regarding this card. I tried so many places, even emailed XFX themselves to no avail. I now ordered Thermal Grizzly's Kryonaut for when I'll repaste the card. I'll try and get the thermal pad sizes when I tear the card down. It still functions great for me, the VRM temperatures for me are like 51 degrees Celsius tops for me, though the memory sometimes can get as hot as 88 degrees with the stock fan curve, but I think my oven of a case is probably to blame, too. I will also be upgrading my NZXT H510i to Corsair's 4000D Airflow with 2 Noctua 140mm fans as intake, 1 Noctua 120mm fan as exhaust and the original fans the case comes with will be used as the top exhaust.
@@bmxismylife123I did the same and looked for weeks and didn't get an answer. So in the end I bought 3 different sizes (1mm, 1.5mm and 2mm) and tried different combinations until it worked out. I've probably repeated the process 6 or 7 times and took me almost 2 weeks of testing. And I've tested both Arctic and thermal grizzly. I would recommend you to use Thermal grizzly for both the thermal paste and thermal pads. I also had High memory temps only while mining but not while gaming. It was sitting in the high 80's but now it maxes at 72 degrees. Wish you good luck with the process and have fun with it
If I'm looking to REALLY push games on a 3440x1440, but want to stay amd due to freesync (monitors range is 80-100fps). Upgrading from an rx590 sapphire nitro(surprisingly, hits around 60-85fps on medium settings!), would this be able to hit 80-100fps with high to max settings and get me into that sweet sweet freecync range (Games like D2, Rocket league, ESO)? i72600k, 16gbddr3. Edit, picked up an rx5700xt and seem to be able to play at max settings on my 3440x1440 and stay around 60fps.
@DankMemeKid hrm. I do have it oc'd to 4.4, so maybe that's why I'm not noticing anything? It will definitely get replaced eventually, but I just spent more on a video card than my entire pc, so it's gonna be awhile, lol Is there a way I can test it and see other than monitoring it while gaming?
@DankMemeKid Ran one because I got curious...it actually went really well! 62nd percentile overall, lol it got rated an aircraft carrier on userbenchmark?
oofff! I highly recommend ditching that ancient CPU, and upgrade. the AMD Ryzen 3 3100x and 3300x are 90-120 USD and they beat a i7 7700k, if money is tight.
@@lynnmckenney1987 Just because its not using 99% of your CPU, does not mean that its not bottlenecking your system. Trust me! I had an i7 4770k with a GTX 1070, and with Half life Alyx I had to play on low fidelity, and just upgrading my CPU to a Ryzen 7 3800x, I am now able to play on high settings with the same GPU. Now my GPU is the bottleneck, but Ill be resolving that very very soon. Regardless I didnt think my 4770k was much of a bottleneck, and figured it was mainly my GPU...but nope! It was my CPU. My CPU was maybe usuing 40-50%..but it still bottlenecked my system HARD! You can easily get a Ryzen 3 3100 and a mobo for a 200 bucks give or take, keep that ram you have, and upgrade your GPU. If your ram is under DDR4 3200..I recommend upgrading that as well. Your CPU and GPU are the most important things to upgrade from what I see.
@@OutlawCaliber13 I have just paired this with 3900x and msi x570 tomahawk but getting cpu debug signal on on motherboard. I have updated the bios as well. Any suggestions?
This things running apex at 20 fps and call of duty at like 30, league is at 240 but stutters alot. Anybody help me please, i just built a 2000$ pc and i cant get it to run any games right. Update: i had my hdmi plugged into myotherboard and not my gpu. Why nobody tell me this in the videos i feel stupid as hell...
Meh, still has that cheap pieces of shit around the card, making it look bigger than it really is. And did they fix backplate design? Because from the photos it looks like they didn't change it
This is an oxymoron btw. More fans equals always more noise. I would bet my left nut that because of the larger fans together with the updated revision of the thicc 2 paired with a custom fan curve, you can run it with slower rpm and with that quieter than the thicc 3.
You show very limited info for a good review and analysis. What is the test scenario here? Open bench? closed case? What Bios was selected? What are the operating frequencies? I have a Thicc 3 card and it gets around 80ºC+ on closed case and boosts up to 2150Mhz @ stock and get a bit noisy cause it reaches above 3000Rpm Also there shoul be more FPS differences bettween the 2 cards.
