Ever since I bought a RX 5700XT I have games crashing on me. Different reasons, but crashing A LOT. Also while browsing.
I thought it was the XFX 5700XT thiss II ultra - it was really hot to touch while gaming. But OTOH, it crashed even with card copletely cool, set to 1080p gaming, etc. Or in browser, sometimes windows itself.
So today a friend lent me his old R9 270X. Tried it immediately with my two currently played games. Both crashed within minutes. Same crash reports / dialogs as 5700.
I replaced an NV card with that RX 5700XT and both of these games were running completely fine with that card.
I don't get it: I'm pretty sure these two cards work just fine for people. After all, the R9 was successfully used by my friend for quite a while.
I even replaced my old Intel setup and went with a 2700X / B450 trying to fix these issues. Windows 10 freshly installed, the whole shebang. AMD driver cleaner ran a gazillion times, multiple driver versions tried too. No dice.
I just cancelled my replacement order with Amazon until I figure out what the heck is wrong with my setup. Tomorrow I'm switching the R9 with an 1060 GTX in one of my servers and trying that one out in my gaming rig.
But I would really like to get that 5700XT working, it' way more price-effective than current NV offerings. Anyone have a good idea on what else I could try?
