Ok thanks man, for the thermal paste do i have to buy specific thermal paste or the ones that you use for the CPU are fine for the GPU aswell (i have the arctic MX-4), for the radeon settings everything default (https://prnt.sc/tu4riu , https://prnt.sc/tu4t1j ) and what can i do for the frequency that is getting stuck is it gonna fix when i double check better the thermal pads or do i have to twerk some settings to fix it.

 

Regular CPU thermal paste is good and fine. You need to / should change thermal paste.

Thermal pad you can re-use, so check make sure they are put back correctly.

Settings on Automatic, so it should be okay for now...need to resolve the temperature problem first.

hello guys, so today i opened up my rx 5700xt gygabyte 3 fan edition to clear it up and all went good, the issue is when i started playing something wasnt feeling ok so i did a benchmark on heaven one and got a score of 804 on extreme settings with highest fps 70 and lowest 20 (old score was over 2400) and the mhz never went above 700.

So you took the GPU apart to clean it or? Is that what you mean by opened up?

temps? make sure every thermal pad is on, some components don't have sensors on them so they could be overheating without the gpu knowing. re seat the cooler. 

ddu the drivers.

109 is getting really hot. Do you know if it was die junction or memory or vrm?

Ok so basically i have to reopen it and make sure every pads are making Contact cause the mhz the maximum was 900 and average 400 never went over 1000 mhz

You might need new thermal pads if they are squished/damaged at all or if they got dirty from dust or your finger oils.

this are the specs while running the benchmark

 

Double check the thermal pads.

When you remove the cooler, it is always best practice to clean off old thermal paste, and apply new.

Best to not re-use the thermal paste.

 

109*C Junction / Hot Spot temperature is very high...even for a 3x fan Gigabyte Gaming OC / Aorus 5700 XT.

 

GPU frequency should not be that low.

It is getting stuck running close to idle state / P1 state.

 

How does your Radeon Settings look like?

Check / share screenshot of 'GPU Tuning Control' menu.
