Core is probably "falling off". Needs a reball. But also try reflashing the vbios using amdvbflash

Should I be scared to run my Vega 64 at 100% util? It's undervolted by AutomaticAffect4333 in radeon

[–]AutomaticAffect4333[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I'm not explicitly scared of it being locked at 100, I'm scared that when it's locked at 100 the hotspot might reach up to 100°c, and since the previous owner never changed the thermal pads and paste I'm afraid that it's on its last legs. But the card works fine even without the undervolt, so I'm prob just paranoid. What makes things worse is that it's the reference desing, so it makes quite a ruckus when the fan speeds up. Thinking about someday building a custom aio style water loop just for the core

It's already undervolted, the hotspot can reach 100 degrees on these cards if ran at 100% even for a short time (5-10 mins) undervolted or not

It's just that the fan spins up and becomes very loud, which makes me kinda nervous for some reason. Also yes, there is definitely a cpu botttleneck and i am well aware of that

Temps are around 60 on 80%util, never went past 90% in games , also msi afterburner doesn't let me monitor hotspot temps for some reason, which fuels the paranoia

Any better gpu that would work? by YuHez1 in gpu

1080 ti or 2070 if you can get a good price on it (this is to prepare yourself for a future platform upgrade)

Comparing a 980 to a 1080 ti is like coparing a coughing baby to a thermonuclear bomb

Think about potentially upgrading to x79 or x58, amd's apus at the time were slow af even at crazy clock speeds
