So its been a couple of months now, and Ive tried everything. Now I'm not experiencing black screen anymore. It change to a full pc locked up/freeze! Will RMA this stupid card.

Good read indeed. Now the Gigabyte VEGA 64 is not melting the PCI-E power cords. What I did is I directly connected it to the PSU (No extensions) But it still goes BSOD with the fans revving up to 100%. I noticed that I only get this when setting a custom profile at wattman Settings are: State 1: 992/900mV State 2: 1082/950mV State 3: 1137/1000mV State 4: 1237/1025mV State 5: 1437/1045mV State 6: 1577/1065mV State 7: 1632/1075mV HBM2: 945/1000mV Power limit +50% Fans at 75% when going 65c I already tried tuning down the clock speed with the given mV's, and it will still BSOD with fan going 100% I'll try using balance profile for a few days and check if it will still bsod

What I meant is it safe to undervolt and then push the clock at a higher speed? Cause in WattMan 975mV is at P4 and 1000mV is at P5

Could it be my undervolt settings? Is undervolting + high clock speed harmful? P6 - 1537/975mV P7 - 1597/1000mV. This settings worked before. I really liked the card cause it can run on a lower voltage compared to my Strix(when I put p6 lower than 1000mV, Adrenalin crashes)

Why is the Strix card not shorting then? Defective GPU? Purchased the Gigabyte Vega 64 just last December 2018. Those 2 cables are from 2 different rigs. Just tried using the stock 8 pin connector and plugged it in the 2nd spot where the gpu melted the Phantek cables, it worked for 30-45 mins, after that, black screen again. Did not try a 2nd attempt cause Im afraid that the 8pin connecotr might melt again.

I have 2 setups with Vega 64(Strix and Gigabyte) The Strixx runs flawless even though its hotter(due to the awful VRM). However, on the Gigabyte model when launching a game or even Heaven Unigine, I'm getting a black screen and fans revving up. Running the Strix with a Corsair VS650 PSU and the Gigabyte with at FSP K 700W. Both PSU are almost 1 year old. After swapping the GPUs, the issue was still persisting on the Gigabyte Vega 64. After checking the 1st PC I noticed that the 2nd 8 PIN PCI-E extension was melted. Cleaned the 8-PIN slot on the Gigabyte GPU, hooked it up on the 2nd PC and it melted it again. Is this a PSU issue? Take note that I did test the Gigabyte 64 on 2 separate rigs that has their own PSU 8-PIN PCIE Cables are Phanteks 500M

I have 2 setups with Vega 64(Strix and Gigabyte) and I'm having the exact same issue with the Gigabyte model. The Strixx runs flawless even though its hotter(due to the awful VRM). Running the Strix with a Corsair VS650 PSU and the Gigabyte with at FSP K 700W. Both PSU are almost 1 year old. Will try swapping the GPUs to determine if its the PSU.
