of note it did not require me to restart my PC after driver installation and GPU Z correctly shows 17.1.1 as driver version

also of note, b.net app wouldnt load until i did a restart. like the program was running in system tray, but i couldn't pull up the window for it

 

[fullinfusion]

Gotta love these MSI cards and how cool they run

plus the thread needs a bump

 

[fullinfusion]

You know I was going to make a thread called..

The RX 480 that could.

You know I play DX9 to DX12 games and have always used Cross-fire cards.. But not any more, the 480 8GB hammers all my games.

Really who nees a 1070 or 80/ti card?

You know this has been the best cash spent since the 3870X2 days lol

cool

RX-470 user here. XFX RX-470 4GB Triple X Single Fan to be exact. Got a decent oc on the core but for some reason I just can't do anything relevant on the memory. Even at 1800 I couldn't get rid of the gpu mem errors.

[PerfectWave]

WOW! u have almost RX480 performance in pixel fillrate and texture fillrate!

 

[Evo85]

Just ordered a PowerColor Red Devil RX 480 from the Egg yesterday.

https://m.newegg.com/product/index?itemnumber=N82E16814131694

It will be here Tuesday. I will post some pics ASAP. Already have some mods planned for it.

 

[PerfectWave]

the problem with amd videocard is the dual monitor memory: my rx480 keeps 2000mhz while with old drive my r290 was doing 300/150 forced with overdrive with no flickering at all

 

[Evo85]

My Red Devil showed up a day early (love the Egg).

Well I finally found the time to get the beast installed. And I have to say this thing blew me away. Major jump in all benchies versus my highly oc'ed 960's. I didn't do any OC'ing, just boosted it to 1330.

Temps were good. Highest was 61c. Though that was with my case completely open.

I'll post some before/after numbers as well as overclocking results in the next couple of days.

 

[Evo85]

Well, Here's what I have so far.

Managed to OC to 1400 on the core without upping the voltage or temps over 64. Ran Unigine Valley for 1 hour to test stability.

As for benchies. I am comparing the RX 480 (@1330/2000) against my strongest EVGA 960 (@1490/3703)

Unigine Valley: RX 480: Avg FPS=51.5 Score=2155
GTX 960: Avg FPS=36.7 Score=1537

Timespy: RX 480: Combined=4118
GTX 960: Combined=2579

Firestrike: RX 480: Combined=9693
GTX960: Combined 6866

Still have a lot to go. Rest of my comp parts will be here tomorrow so I can button her up and really focus on performance.

The Hynix 480 4Gb I had did pretty much the same thing, the memory only hit about 1810Mhz but an improvement is an improvement really, its still something.

The Samsung 4Gb 480 I have now is a whole different story, I originally thought it could only hit 2090MHz and I have a Gaming X model. After looking at the temperature of the VRM I noticed it was a little high and the Gaming X uses an MMCP(memory mosfet cooling plate) so when the VRM heats up, the entire card heats up. I thought maybe the VRM temperature is limiting the overclock on the memory. So I manually set the fan to about 50% and the memory hit 2250MHz from 1750MHz but if the VRM hits 85C+ it drops down to about 2050MHz.

checked with ScannerX and OCCT also.

Still going to run mine at 1303/2000 but its nice to know if I somehow drop the VRM temp later on I can get more performance.

Edit:
I checked the card itself and the memory is not HC25(8000Mhz) but HC28(7000MHz) instead.

 

[PerfectWave]

when using in single monitor my temp remain to about 30° celsius. when using multimonitor is going up to almost 58° and the fan is spinning only at 60°. If i use eyefinity the memory clock stay at 300 mhz. This is really bullshit cos sometime i dont need to use eyefinity but just dual monitor and temp are going to be really hot. This is stupid from AMD. Cart with dual monitor is capable to keep 300 mhz instead of 2000mhz.

My temps on my card always run at about 55 to 60C multi monitor or not, I'm ok with it at this point.




Also I rechecked the memory overclock on my card and the max was 2090 again after I reinstalled crimson after DDU sadly but thats still pretty good for some HC28 memory I guess.

i just got a radeon rx580 msi gaming X+ 8gb OC ... its clocked at 1431MHz, and 2100MHz ram (2000 default) .. i was wondering whats a good voltage in msi after burner and a good core clock to overclock it at.. i also have a MSI ARMOR RX480 8gb 1291MHz, 2000MHz ram .. and i also have a XFX RX460 Slim 4gb..

im wanting to overlcock them all but im having trouble, i dont know whats safe and what isnt.. i cant really overclock the RX480, its cramped with the rx460 in the 3rd bottom slot (even in my full tower case) i have a 20" box fan up against the side panel of my case to keep these beasts cool, but the armor doesnt have good enough cooling to run at full clock while data mining, it hits 87c and downclocks itself, ambient temp in the room is 72f (central air conditioning)

however the rx 580 and rx 460 run nice and cool

the clocks on the xfx are 1220 gpu, 1750 mem

ive unlocked the core voltage in msi afterburner 4.3.0

on a full sia mining load the rx580 runs at about 73 c, on a dual ethereum+sia mining load they reach the lower 80s (sorta like a furmark load i suppose)

not sure if that leaves me much room to overclock, but i got 3 120mm intake fans and 1x140mm exhaust fan, and a 20" box fan with both side panels off *lol*

system is a core i7 4790k devils canyon @ 4.8GHz (1.41 volts) Noctua NH-D14 cpu cooler (arctic silver 5)
ASrock Fatal1ty z97x killer
16GB of G.skill 2400MHz RAM DDR3
240gb PNY Optima SSD
two 500gb 2.5" 5400RPM 16mb of cache Toshibas in RAID0
one 1tb seagate barracuda 7200rpm 64mb of cache
1x MSI Gaming X+ RX 580 8gb
1x MSI ARMOR RX 480 8gb
1x XFX RX 460 *SLIM* 4gb

Rosewill Rise Full tower gaming case
Rosewill Photon 750 watt Gold Certified PSU

what would be some good overclocks to try that wont fry my cards or possibly cause blue screens for my cards?

also on the rx460 i get lockups in doom 2016 (doom 4) with all the DLC's on steam and the season pass, running the latest WHQL drivers and the ReLive optional.. ReLive has problems streaming.. there some sort of lag on the rx460, even though i can play at 720 with every thing off and set to "low" and the texture quality set to performance in the global settings

ive since then switched to running my primary on the rx580, and leave the rx480 and rx460 to data mine in the back ground

does anyone else get lockups in doom 2016? is it just good ole bethesda? (like with the fall out 3 series lockups) or is it a driver issue? .. ive even tried at stock clocks on the cpu and it still locks up, and streaming to twitch produces some kinda ingame lag, the FPS dont drop, it just is weird, i stream on high settings at 720p within relive, 3.5MBPS (im 80mbps down, 20mbps up on cable) which is more then enough id say.. xbox recording seems to be flawless on the xbox app DVR so i really dont know.. AMD hasnt updated the drivers since may 3rd as far as i know

I just realize I need to enter. LOL. Now to read all the pages for tips.
