Posted April 20, 2019 So I built a system with an RX 570 and it was struggling to run the dumbest games like Roblox and Insurgency, then my friend gave me his GTX 1080 because he was waiting for the rest of his PC to ship. So I popped in it and it worked great! But a few days later I had to give it back to him and put in my old RX 570 back into my system, but this time it was running better than it has ever before! Definitely not as fast as the GTX 1080 but it ran Roblox and Insurgency like a champ! Keep in mind I ran DDU and installed the latest GPU drivers on all 3 graphics card swaps. The RX 570 has been on the same driver version since I built it. So what happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know hard to say, there's so many things that could've happened to mess up your performance, you should've been aware of the RX 570 performance and tried to diagnose it, but since it's already fixed you'll never know what was causing it Quote or Tag people so they know that you've replied.

Posted April 20, 2019 There can be so many factors that changed it, so it is hard to tell. One time i mounted my gpu poorly, and it got like 10fps, then i remounted it properly and all was fine. It could also be drivers, software etc. I only see your reply if you @ me. This reply/comment was generated by AI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted April 20, 2019 Your PC didn't want to disappoint you after the 1080 gave you high standards. /S the ol' "unplug and plug it back in" strategy has helped throughout time, usually solving the unknown reasons why hardware doesn't behave. there could be any number of reasons as to why your 570 it wasn't doing what it was supposed to. I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B Primary PC: i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me. Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference. How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah It's probably just the GPU not sitting right on the PCIe slot, especially since the motherboard is a cheap Chinese "X79" board paired with a $30 Xeon lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RX 570 is not a low end card, it's a midrange card, and as for Roblox the RX 570 should tear it apart like it's nothing. Quote or Tag people so they know that you've replied.
