so i repasted my xfx rx 470 yesterday after putting it up for sale for a while i decided to put it back into my system. the new pasting made it cooler but it still is loud as it was before. i feel like the fans are giving out. because this gpu was quiet and cool before i cleaned it a few years ago. after i cleaned it in around 2020 it got loud and hot but after recleaning yesterday now its only loud. have i damaged the fans the first time around ? should i get the fans replaced? should i be using new thermal pads as the old ones are kinda ripped apart and i just took bits and pieces and put them on the supposed things they go on. here's some clips so you can hear the audio and sorry for the messy text. i wanted to tell everything in as little as possible. also ignore the beeping sound its someones car being robbed outside i think. 1) idle 2) in game 3) yesterday right after pasting it sounded so weird and that was at 1000rpm only.

My RX 470 (i have 2 of them) gaming g1 from gigabyte are not being detected by the upper PCIE slot in the motherboard. Tried: Resetting CMOS Reseating GPU Physically Inspected GPU Physically inspected and cleaned GPU and MB slot vBios updates weird thing is that the pc i tested it on lets call it PC 1 is my main Pc which has a 2080 and that 2080 works perfectly in the upper slot, and i had put different gpus in there and they work perfectly too but the rx 470s dont work up there. I also tried it in my gfs PC which has a 1070 and the RX 470 doesnt work on the upper slot either so i narrowed down that the problem is in the RX 470. WELL GUESS WHAT THEY WORK ON THE LOWER PCIE (x4 slot) ON BOTH PCs. I have updated the bios, run bench marks while it was on the lower PCIE slot and it doesnt overheat or show any signs of anything wrong with it. I dont think is a bios corruption, only thing i can think of is that it was used for mining but wouldnt the vbios update delete any mining update stuff they did on it? NOTES: On PC1 Upper PCIE is a 4.0 x16, Lower is 3.0 x4 SPECS: PC 1 I5 12400f 2080 Msi pro b660m-a ddr4 750 PSU gfs PC i5 11400 Z490 gigabyte gaming x 500 or 550 PSU 1070 Recently tried it in a 3rd rig that only had a: i3 10100f 550 PSU b560 acer motherboard that only has 1 pcie slot x16 and it didnt work on that x16 any ideas on what it can be? Thanks very much

Backstory: Few months back my PC was not booting I checked and found that a RAM stick was causing it so I cleaned it and it worked. This thing happened again few weeks back when I was playing game and blue screen of death came. I did the same as before but this this time it worked only once later ram got wasted. So for few days I was gaming on just 1 X 4gb ram it was working fine but later games would freeze for brief moment ( Deus ex, Dying Light). I thought This was because of low RAM as it was working fine on low spec games. So I added another 8gb RAM (Total 12gb) and it was working fine (Deus ex was was glitching though) Problem: Later that same day when I turned on my PC it was giving no display turns out GPU was not detected (though LED and Fans were working) and my IGPU was giving display through VGA I removed CMOS, reinstall drivers (did not worked) Cleaned my GPU (using rubber/eraser) and PCI slot and put it back and this time both GPUs were not giving display I thought my GPU was dead but today I gave it another try Turned on PC same as before no display turned it off and turned it on again it started giving display Question: I just want to know what could be the problem ? Is it going to kill my GPU in near future ? as I lost the RAM before What should I do to prevent this ? Possible Reason Dust Specs: i5-3470 Seasonic 500w 80+ PSU ASUS B75m motherboard 12 GB RAM Sapphire Rx 470 4gb

Hello friends I’m new here and I have a REALLY confusing hardware problem, so this is a gonna a bit long. tl;dr, I think my RX 470 is locked to Ryzen systems and will not work with Intel systems. Context: From the Philippines. I bought my girlfriend an RX 470 that she could use in her new build until GPU prices calm down. I found the card secondhand from a seller with many positive reviews, and he proved to me (with timestamps even) that the card was in good working order and could play games, could do anything really. All this to say that the seller seemed solid. My old setup: I received the card, it was old, had faded gold pins, but otherwise looked normal. I plugged it into my OLD system with an i5-4460, Asus B-85 Pro Gamer, 8 gb RAM, Windows 10, to test the card. The system would turn on, GPU lights on, fans spinning, but no display. Reseated the RAM and the card, still no display. It would show up as no signal on my monitor. I plugged the HDMI cable into my motherboard with the 470 still attached, and found that the GPU was not detected at all even when running off of my integrated graphics. AMD’s driver software that detects your GPU for driver updates wasn’t even finding it. My current setup: My current personal system has a Ryzen 7 5800X, Asus X570-F, 32 gb RAM, Windows 10, and a GTX 1080 FE. I swapped out the 1080 for the 470 to see if it would work, and it did! The card worked perfectly fine in my current system. I could play games and do anything. I thought it wasn’t working on my old setup because maybe the mobo was dying, so I decided to let it go and hope for the best until my girlfriend’s setup arrived. GF’s setup: A couple weeks later, my gf’s parts finally came together and we set up an i5-10400F, MSI B560M Pro-VDH Wifi, 16 gb RAM, Windows 10. Plugged the 470 into her setup and boom, no display, exact same problem as with my old setup. It would light up, fans would spin, but no display. I tried placing my GTX 1080 into her system and THAT worked. I went to Reddit to ask around and somebody suggested the possibility that the card may somehow be locked to Ryzen systems being that it failed to work in two Intel systems. I asked the seller what his system was, the one he had the 470 running in, and sure enough, he had a Ryzen 5 1600, B350M. This just furthered one Redditor’s theory that somehow it isn’t compatible with Intel systems. My original theory was that my X570-F could detect the card because being that it’s a higher-end mobo, it was more sensitive to even faded contacts? Although that makes no sense with the original seller’s mobo being an older, cheaper B350M. Currently: As of now, I have given my girlfriend my GTX 1080 to use for now until I can figure out what to do with her RX 470. The 470 works in my system so it’s currently plugged into my R7 5800X, X570 system. The temps are fine, even better than my 1080 FE’s temps. What I have tried: I’ve tried a lot of things to try and solve this so I can’t remember all, but here’s what I can recall right now: - Reseating RAM - Reseating GPU - Using HDMI, Display port, VGA, none worked - Updating drivers (could not because AMD software could not detect the RX 470) - DDU-ing NVIDIA drivers - Updating BIOS - Resetting BIOS to default - Removing CMOS battery and replacing it after 2-3 minutes, did it again for 5 minutes. - Cleaning the contacts with an eraser twice, with and without alcohol - Checking if integrated graphics were enabled (it wasn’t) - Checking if Resizable Bar Support was enabled (it wasn’t) - Enabling “Normal Setup” on msconfig instead of Selective Startup - Booting from Integrated Graphics on my old Intel system, entered device manager to check if the RX 470 was detected, but it wasn't I have considered having someone re-apply the gold pins, but I did my best to budget for this and I would rather find another way that doesn’t involve paying hahaha Thank you so much for any help you can provide! I will reply to you as soon as possible, I'm studying for an ophthalmology exam at the same time hahaha Edit: Pix of the RX 470 contacts: https://imgur.com/a/FNYZvq3

Hello All, I'm running into a common trend with a lot of older boards when trying to utilize a newer GPU, in this case the RX 470. I'm currently experimenting to see if semi-modern GPUs can be used on older cheaper boards that I have laying around to do some cryptocurrency mining. I'm experimenting with 3 boards in total; however, each board has its own unique set of symptoms with the card. The basic requirement of all the boards was to have 3 PCIe slots. Here is how I will organize the post for each motherboard: The board in use and its configuration The problems associated with the board My thoughts on the matter and my approach To preface I have tried all of the following troubleshooting measures on all boards: Reseated all components and connectors (CPU, RAM, GPUs, PSU Connections) Reset the BIOS utilizing the CMOS jumper Updated the BIOS Utilized 1 GPU Alone Utilized a second PSU to power the external cards 2 and 3 Externally tested the GPUs on a more modern motherboard to make sure they were all working, all cards passed Externally tested other components to make sure they're all working Configuration 1: Components: MB: DG45ID, Chipset: G45 Express Processor: Celeron 450 RAM: 8 GB DDR2 800 MHz PSU: 500 W GPU 1: XFX RX 470 4 GB GPU 2: Gigabyte RX 470 4 GB GPU 3: Gigabyte RX 470 4 GB Problems: The motherboard makes no POST beep and puts out no display no matter which GPU I utilize in the x16 slot. It powers on for a couple seconds, turns off, and then turns back on permanently. I've also removed the PCIe x1 to x16 riser connections to no benefit. The motherboard is able to POST as when I remove the RAM, I get 3 beeps as expected. It recently had a unexpected BIOS corruption and I had to take it for repair. Following this it worked for about a day and then ran into the issue outlined above. Additionally, this board was working fine with other configurations, including a Gigabyte RX 470 before. My Thoughts: My theories have considered that somehow the BIOS doesn't recognize the card in the slot; however, this doesn't make much sense to me as online PCIe is lauded as being backwards compatible and that as long as the slot was a x16 any card should work in any motherboard with any PCIe slot generation. Also the cards worked previously. Additionally, I learned more about how PCIe lanes were managed in the old days only by the chipset present on the motherboard. Perhaps the board is running out of PCIe lanes. I could fix this by changing their config; however, I can't access the BIOS to run the x16 slot as x8 instead since there is no output. I know the chipset supports 16 PCIe lanes, so the card with no other add ins should work; however it doesn't Configuration 2: Components: MB: DQ45CB, Chipset: 82Q45 Processor: Celeron 450 RAM: 4 GB DDR2 800 MHz PSU: 500 W GPU 1: XFX RX 470 4 GB GPU 2: Gigabyte RX 470 4 GB GPU 3: Gigabyte RX 470 4 GB Problems: The motherboard makes no POST beep and puts out no display no matter which GPU I utilize in the x16 slot. It powers on for a couple seconds, turns off, and then a blinking red LED on the board flashes twice until I turn off the power. I've also removed the PCIe x1 to x16 riser connections to no benefit. The motherboard is able to POST as when I remove the RAM, I get 3 beeps as expected. I have no knowledge if the board was working before. My Thoughts: Again my thoughts run to BIOS compatibility and possibly PCIe lane use. Though I'm still confused as to why a single card doesn't put out a signal at all. Configuration 3: Components: MB: M71E Lenovo 03T6014, Chipset: H61 Express Processor: Pentium Core G840 RAM: 4 GB DDR3 1333 MHz PSU: 500 W GPU 1: XFX RX 470 4 GB GPU 2: Gigabyte RX 470 4 GB GPU 3: Gigabyte RX 470 4 GB Problems: The motherboard makes no POST beep and puts out no display unless I utilize the XFX RX 470 4 GB card in the x16 slot alone. The motherboard POSTs and boots into linux fine utilizing that card alone. Utilizing any of the Gigabyte cards results in no POST and no display whether in the x16 slot or connected via x1 to x16 riser. Additionally, plugging the cards into the PCIe risers causes while running the XFX card yields the no post and no display from the card. My Thoughts: I think that the problem may lie with the PCIe lanes in this instance and possibly with motherboard compatibility. I've seen some horror stories about these proprietary motherboards and utilizing non standard add in parts. I just wanted to try this one so it didn't end up in the trash so fast. That being said, the pentium processor has no dedicated PCIe lanes from what I can tell and the H61 express chipset only has a grand total of 6. So perhaps that's causing an issue. All that being said, feel free to focus on one or all of the issues. With all of the issues being so similar, I figured I'd just make one big post and see if the solutions provided for one would help solve the others problems. Any thought or unusual suggestion may help. There are probably some things I don't understand about older hardware going on so hopefully someone can lead me in the right direction. Honestly after days of trying to figure this out, I'm at a total loss. Thank you community!

Hello, I'm new to this forum, so if I have made mistake with posting this thread please redirect me. I'd like to apologize for bad english. Recently i bought used rx 470 graphic card which seems to be used for mining. I managed to get bios update because when I install graphic driver there is yellow triangle in display adapter driver, and AMD adrenaline software couldn't pick up graphic card. After flashing new bios from this site Adrenaline could pick up graphic card and there was no yellow triangle. So naturally i wanted to play games (CSGO, Lol) but strange things started to happens, for instance in Lol after playing for a while screen just go flicking black screen for about 10s and then it go back to normal *this would happen randomly and more times*, and for CSGO even on all setting on Low and disabled all features, it would just send me to desktop while i can still hear sound from background like reloading, shouting, moving, etc. I am no able to get back in game with either alt+tab or clicking with mouse on minimized icon in taskbar. Thank you for your time reading this, and hopefully not dying inside or digging your eyes duo to bad english. EDIT: While playing csgo right when 'error' occurs i got message from radeon 'Default Radeon WattMan settings has been restored due to unexpected system failure'. I have disabled 'Turn on fast startup' in power options. I am using: PSU: 550W I7 870 1st Gen. 16gb ram P7H55-m PowerColor rx 470 4gb

I have the opportunity to trade an old case and some fans for an RX 470 4gb. I built my girlfriend a pc with left over parts and she currently has a gtx 960 2gb. She has an i3 8300 & 8gb ram. I think the power supply is a 450w Corsair power supply. Would it be worth upgrading the gtx 960 to a Rx 470? And would it draw the same amount of power or (more/less). Im only asking because I have gotten mixed information from what I have been able to Google.

I remember plenty of tutorials for using the nVidia P106 and other mining editions of the RX 470 for gaming. They all required flashing the BIOS and using an integrated GPU to output the video. However, I noticed there are some mining editions of the RX 470 that actually come with a DVI output on it. Can these mining GPUs be used as gaming GPUs without needing to flash the BIOS and using an iGPU? I presume the DVI port must be used for video output so what would happen if I used one of these RX 470s as a primary GPU for gaming and output video directly through it? Or would there need to be more done in order to use them for gaming?

Hi there. I just bought second-hand pc from ebay. Seller is claiming everything was working before he posted it, but I just had "no signal detected". PC Specs: Ryzen 3 1300 Rx 470 4gb Sapphire 8gb Kingston 2666 Evga 600w a320m-pro I swapped rx470 with rx590 and everything was working as it should. However, rx470 still was not working in my main pc. I tried it with 3 different monitors as well different cables HDMI, DVI and Display Port. Only once I managed to get some kind of "feedback" from the rx470 which was white/pink artefact screen. I didnt try to update the BIOS since newer card was working just fine on a320. I try both modes of BIOS on gpu (V Bios switch) with the same results. Just want to ensure that gpu in fact is faulty or I am missing something specific about this card? Thank you

I just wanted to ask. Which one would be a better buy in terms of gaming performance? I only play pubg steam. I already have some of the other parts. I7 3770 Asus h61m-c Team elite 16gb 2x8gb ddr3 1600mhz Adata su650 240gb 1tb hdd Corsair gs600 Please consider the bottleneck if there is any. I would really like the one where i can really utilize the gpu.

I recently upgraded to a 470 from GTX 660 and while going through Gpu-z i saw instead of Pcie 3 it was shown as running @ x2 1.1 and in hwinfo Pcie 3 (8GT/s ) @ x2 (5GT/s). This mobo has Pcie 3 advertised but in actuality does it only have 2.0 ? If it is does will it have significant impact on performance as i am aiming for 900p 60 Fps on high settings.Also i updated mobo bios to latest update of v1107.

I have a sapphire RX 470 4GB (Blower Style cooler - which is very loud and the card gets too hot now, after 3 years), I was thinking of upgrading. Is the 1660 Super a good upgrade over a RX 470? Or should I spend more and get a RTX 2060 non-super? Where I live the 1660 Super costs 19000 INR (~267 USD) and the 2060 costs 25500 INR (~358 USD). EDIT: I play mostly AAA games (Red Dead 2, Assassins Creed Series etc.) and PUBG.

I built a pc for a friend around two months ago. The specs: P5q Se PLUS Xeon E5450 8 GB DDR2 RX 470 Cooler Master MWE 550 So, he was able to use it for around two weeks before the pc started to go black screen randomly (even without GPU load). There was no artifacts, lines or anything that shows sign of a broken GPU. Sometimes, if he waits for a few days, he will be able to play again for hours without any problem. Sometimes the pc won't even complete post. The diagnostic beep or lights will tell that somethings wrong with the GPU. What I had done: 1. Replaced RAM, still the same 2. Checked cables, good condition 3. Tried another motherboard, same no post at boot. Could it be a faulty PSU? Just found out that the Powerdevil RX470 in this pc was used for mining for over 2 years+.

Hey guys .. I was looking for a used gpu to buy from an online store .. and i found a good deal on the rx 470 4gb .. the problem is the seller sent me a photo of the card which is included in this post .. but i did some research on Asus website and i found that the card in the picture looks just like rx 480 Dual 4g OC and i also found that Asus dis not manufactur rx 470 8n this Dual ( white ) design .. so Could this card be an rx 480 flashed with rx 470's bios for some reason ? .. like pay low costumes for example ? ... Any guidance or help will ne appreciated Thanks

Hello, I'm currently interested in knowing if it is worth upgrading my GPU at this moment in time. I'm currently using - CPU - Ryzen 7 1700 (Stock) Cooler - wraith spire RGB cooler MOBO - GA-AX370-GAMING 5 GPU - Rx 470 RAM - 2x8gb corsair @3000mhz PSU - 750w EVGA G2 I'm looking to upgrade to either a 2060 or 2070, although I'm wondering if it would be worth the wait to see what else comes out of the 16 series, or the rumored Navi GPUs. I mainly play at 1080p@60hz and use two monitors, but I would like the choice to move to either 1080p@120/144hz or 1440p in the future.

Hi everyone! I have a custom built PC that I got way back that seems to be dying already. I've tried reinstalling Windows 10 but I'm constantly getting blue screens when I try to install either drivers (latest drivers) or even applications like Office and Photoshop. The hard drives are fine so I either suspect that it might be the motherboard or the memory that is dying. Old Specs: - AMD A10 5800k - Asrock FM2A85X Extreme 4 - 8GB G.Skills Ripjaws X Dual Channel - Sapphire RX 470 4GB Nitro Anyways, I assume that it is indeed dying and would like to upgrade to a newer CPU. Can anyone suggest a build suitable for me that's within $400-$500? I'm most likely going to play games and I also do some work on it (like editing photos, videos, rendering stuff, etc.) so I'm kind of leaning towards a Ryzen build. I only need to buy a CPU, Memory and Motherboard since I plan on salvaging other parts since they're still doing ok. Thanks!

Hey guys I'm just looking for some second opinions on my buying dilemma. Looking to buy a used video card off Kijiji and I cannot make a decision. My options are: - Zotac GTX 1050Ti 4GB listed at $180 CAD - Sapphire Tri-X R9 290 4GB listed at $180 CAD - MSI RX 470 4GB listed at $200 CAD Some other important information is that the power supply for the system is a 500w Rosewill unit so I have some doubts about the R9 290 using that psu. Basically I wonder if I should go for a newer card such as the RX 470 or 1050Ti, even if it is a little bit slower just for the fact that they are a newer architecture and perhaps have better driver support. Any insight you guys can give is appreciated. Thanks!

Hello, I just bought 2 used Radeon RX 570 graphics cards from Geeks.com. I installed the graphics card along with the drivers from AMD’s website. The graphics card is running quite well, but when I started up Elite Dangerous it told me my adapter was a Radeon RX 470. I then checked windows with the dxdiag and it too said my graphic card was the RX470, along with the AMD software detecting it as the 470. The graphics card says RX-570DE PA6050. Looking at the phisical form it looks like the RX 470 with one fan on the left of the card, looking at its face. While the RX 570 has two fans from the AMD website. I tried both graphics cards and they are both detected as RX 470. Did I actually get an RX 570 or did I receive a RX 470? Or do I have the wrong drivers for the RX 570 cards? The store is closed at the moment so I can’t ask them about the 2 products till tomorrow. I have been searching the internet for a while and haven’t found much. Any information would be helpful.

Hi all, im having problem with Asus Strix RX470 OC 4GB DDR5. Card is working normally(good fps, normal temps etc.), until it's not working. Card just shuts down, fans stop spinning, I get a message on display "no connection". And i have to press a power button for a few seconds to turn the system off. Everything is fine when i watch youtube videos, surfing the net, movies etc, but problem occurs when playing games. Happened in LoL, Fortnite, Borderlands, PES. (in PES shuts down very fast). When running FurMark or Unigen(Heaven and Superposition) PC and card are working normally, no shutdowns, no stuttering, no problems. So i tested with old and new drivers, flashing new BIOS on card, tried messing with OC software(lowering power, speeding the fans up, etc.), reinstalled Windows(all legal software), tested with other PSU. Tested GPU memory, no problems. Tested graphics card on another rig with new installation of windows and same thing happened, after playing PES for some time, card just shut down. I've read on another forum that low quality PSU can be a problem, low Max Amp on 6pin rail or something like that. But i've tested with 3 differnet PSUs doubt thats the case (maybe it is). I would appriciate any help. Thank you!
