Replacing RX 580 with RX 5700 (non-XT)

[Phantompoison21]

I've been having issues with my XFX Rx 580 8 GB GTS card. I've already RMA'd it and it seems to be the card cause I can take a Sapphire Rx 580 from another system and not have the issue. I was thinking of gettng a RX 5700 non-XT but I'm not sure if I should get the MSI Gaming or one of PowerColor's. They go best with the build I already have if you go by color aesthetics.  Any suggestion why to go with one over another

Wait for your 580 back and save some $$$

For sure get the power color card, all of their cards are fine, MSI may have some thermal pad issue with the memory modules.

Or a pulse if it's the same price as power color.

Or wait for a sale on a blower card for $289, then add some thermal paste and washers.

I RMA'd it earlier in the year and now its doing the same problem as before. Which is random blinking screens.

is there a nitro for the 5700 or just a pulse?

 

Does the Gaming X have the same lacking of thermal pads as the evoke as shown on the XT from GN?

No idea, they probably fixed the issues anyways, just not a priority card for me.

 

The Nitro is really sweet, but it's only an XT card.

I may look at those cards as well.
