GPU running loud and bad fps.

[Speedsterx7]

So, I've recently upgraded from a 1060 to a Vega 64 Arez Strix and this card very loud/hot...

 

Before upgrading, I would get around 80-90 fps in most of my games at 1080P...

 

now I'm still getting around 90-150 but it's never consistent.

 

Is due to me not having a free sync monitor? I do get a lot of screen tearing though.

 

Please, I just bought this card 2 days ago and I'm not sure what to do.

1060 to v64 is not a huge jump. may i ask why you made the upgrade?

[MrTiC]

Yes its hot and loud

Not consistent frames could be a cpu bottleneck

And for the screentearing set enchanced sync to on in global settings

i7-7700k.

 

Can't be a cpu bottleneck.

 

I'm thinking about replacing it for a 2070 or wait for the Radeon 7 GPU...

Yes it is.

 

Vega 64 is over 65% faster then a 1060.

its like a 1070ti. its a jump.. good jump... but not worth the cost imo

That’s what I plan on doing honesty. May even consider going up to a 2080, never buying an AMD gpu ever again.

No it’s not.

 

A RTX 2060 is.

 

vega 64 is around a 1080/RTX 2070.

Im really not sure why you're having issues with your V64, but don't take it as a perminate no to AMD! I currently have an RX580 that I've had no issues with, nor have I ever had an issue with an AMD product over the years. Before you flat out give up on it, RMA the GPU and see if it has the same issue.

I understand but many other people are having issues with the GPU. I’m playing a game for about 15-20 minutes and it’s already 80 degrees and my whole system is burning hot.

Did you uninstall old drivers with DDU? there could very likely be a driver conflict.

A RTX 2060 is.

 

vega 64 is around a 1080/RTX 2070.

basically the same thing.... 1070ti oc is about as power hungry as v64 and performs about the same.

I did that....twice.

Prob a overheating issue so the card is throttling.

 

There's a reason so many makes fun of the Vega cards as hot ovens. Now you know.

Have you undervolted at all? It's pretty mandatory on vega cards and you'll probably see a good increase in framerates. Just undervolt and overclock to squeeze as much as you can out of the card.

my 580 strix would easily cook a steak and no matter what I'd set temp limit to it'd still exceed it

I haven't heard much in the way of V64 issues, so I can't comment there. I will admit I haven't been looking either, as Vega was never an architecture that interested me.
