Is it normal for voltage to jump around? ( Afterburner )

My clocks sit at 300 Mhz ( under non load) and my Voltage jumps around from 737mV to 743+mV the highest i have seen is 800 during a game. Is it possible the auto throttling / power saving is making the value fluctuate?

rx 580 on windows 8.1pro? No Drivers?

This crap is absurd. Why would they support 7 and not 8.1 .ffs. I can upgrade myOS to 10 but support for my current mobo is flaky.

rx 570 vs rx 580 4GB Vram vs 8GB vram and prices.

I'm wondering why some rx570's with 4GB vram are nearly the same price as some 580's with 8GB vram? --Also some 570's are priced higher than the 580's with more vram.

Passmark shows the FX processor coming out ahead of the I5 for a few dollars cheaper.. Any thoughts on the matter? Would it be best to go with an FX processor vs the i5? https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare.php?cmp[]=1780&cmp[]=2230
