Radeon RX 590 gpu problems

[Luke26]

So I received a new armor AMD Radeon RX 590 8gb for Christmas and i replaced my old NVIDIA GTX 1060 3gb with it. I installed the AMD drivers and installed the GPU correctly yet when i launch a game the card gets really hot and crashes the game when I get into a match. I did not have these problems with my 1060 and I am unsure whether it is my power supply that is the issue or another part of my PC. Please Help!

Had something really similar happen - and also read this many many,  far too many times actually now to be a "coincidence".

 

I bought a msi rx 580 "armor" to replace my msi 1050ti gaming x... 

 

Ran hot af,  performance in *any* game was incredibly bad,  installing every available driver did absolutely *nothing*  all while the card was running extremely hot (80-90C) and strangely enough nonetheless had pretty good benchmark scores, so it wasn't like some settings weren't right or anything,  the card simply had awful performance in any games I tested. 

 

Returned the AMD card,  bought a NVIDIA 1060 6GB instead and no issues whatsoever since,  card performs as expected (a bit better actually) runs very cool (~59C) and over clocks very easily too. 

 

(Almost) needless to say I'm done with buying AMD GPUs of any kind after the honestly rather traumatic and extremely frustrating experience with the RADEON RX 580.

And is there are particular reason you chose not to tell us your specs,  especially the exact name of the PSU?
