[Solved] First build complete, NEED HELP with lots of 5700 XT issues!

Hi, peace,

 

I've completed my first build 3 weeks ago: 

 

PCPartPicker Part List: First time Build

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor  
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D15, Premium CPU Cooler with 2x NF-A15 PWM 140mm Fans  
Motherboard: Asus TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (WI-FI) ATX AM4 Motherboard 
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory  
Storage: Silicon Power 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive  
Video Card: Sapphire Radeon RX 5700 XT 8 GB NITRO+ Video Card  
Case: Phanteks Enthoo Primo ATX Full Tower Case 
Power Supply: Corsair HX1000i W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply 
Monitor: BenQ EX2780Q 27.0" 2560x1440 144 Hz Monitor 

 

Windows 10 pro (Genuine)

Bios updated to the latest version

All the drivers installed & up to the latest version

No overclocking of CPU or GPU

Power plan: "AMD Ryzen High Performance" but no longer available, don't know why, tried every fix but couldn't bring it nor "AMD Balanced" back, I think it happened after GPU drivers update, only my assumption!

Current power plan: Win 10 pro "High Performance"

 

CPU temperature: 35-50°C Max

 

GPU driver version: Adrenalin 2020 Edition 19.12.3 Optional, uninstalled!

Current version: Adrenalin 2020 Edition 19.12.2 Recommended (WHQL), installed again yesterday!

 

Sapphire Radeon RX 5700 XT NITRO+ issues:

 

* GPU temperature reaches 50-56°C rarely goes to 58°C (doesn't remain at 56°C for long, back & forth from 50 to 56°C) when idle (web surfing & watching videos) with 0RPM fans spinning, I've read that it's normal for this card, thus no worries, but is it normal?

 

* Black screens, when watching prime every time I forwarded or re-winded the video, screen went black & then came back, super disturbing but last time I checked the issue seemed fixed, can't try it now, Out of Subscription ?

 

* Black screens, when watching youtube or any video especially when trying to go to full screen, goes black & comes back again, happens rarely but really disrupting!

 

* Screen sometimes wakes up & sometimes doesn't wake up, when the monitor screen tuns off, clicking & moving the mouse won't make it turn back on, sometimes it works even after a long time remaining off & sometimes it won't work even if the screen turned off seconds ago, sometimes/mostly it turns on but says: "NO HDMI Signal"!

Solution: Turn the monitor off & on, can sometime takes 2-3 tries, if that doesn't help unplugging & plugging the HDMI cable from the GPU works!

 

* Black screen most annoying experience till now, yesterday or the day before I was watching a gameplay video on youtube & upon trying going to full screen, boom screen went black, GPU fans started spinning at full speed, as always turned the monitor off & on but with no luck, unplugged & plugged the HDMI cable again yet no luck, used the reset button on the case, tried that at least thrice or more but with no luck also, even after doing that GPU fans kept spinning at full speed!

Solution: turned the PC off using the power button!! 

 

* Freezes/Crashes: When starting the game using the rockstar launcher! Fix: Can take 2-3 restarts!

When going full screen mode with my VPS, Fix: Can also take 2-3 restarts!

Random freezes/crashes!

 

So, are there any solutions, what your advice, I am thinking of returning & replacing it with 2070 or 2080 super??

 

Thank you.

 

FIX: The problem was with the HDMI cable that came with my BenQ EX2780Q monitor, after I purchased a VESA certified DP 1.4 cable, this issue was gone, thank GOD it was the most annoying issue for me!

Are the drivers current?

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.
