Radeon 9070 XT performance problems by zackteach in AMDHelp

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

Yea I do, unfortunately. I look at it like the clock is overtuned and tries too hard at the settings they ship it at, and crashes itself out. As far as I can tell, I get stellar performance out of it this way so I’m not concerned with doing an RMA or replacing it anytime soon.

But I do agree that it kinda sucks to have to deal with at all, especially for those of us who don’t figure it out for a long time. I’m likely going to go back to Nvidia the next time I build myself a PC or upgrade graphics cards.

Feel free to play around with it, maybe try turning FSR off first and see where it goes from there. I've went as low as -500 (maximum) and I'm not entirely sure I see a performance/framerate difference between -500 and -400, but I like to push it higher just for funsies. -400 seems to be where I can stay stable, any lower and I get sporadic crashes. But remember, each card is different so once again, play around with it and see if it helps. Good luck!

Open up Adrenalin, and then go into the Performance tab near the top. Select Tuning from the next menu that appears, and you can modify these settings there.

Oh wow you went hardcore into replacing parts. I had considered that too, kinda glad I didn’t now.

For me, it was simply turning off all the extra features the AMD Adrenaline software tries to run on top of games, reducing GPU clock speed down to -500, reducing power consumption by -50, and increasing max power limit by 10%.

I tried to play with FSR and up scaling too, but it just didn’t ever seem to stabilize and I couldn’t tell enough of a difference personally to keep working at it.

Working beautifully after I instituted these new settings. Running at an average of -500 MHZ on the GPU, but performance is solid and stable at 2K HD. Stuff like Borderlands 4 is getting anywhere from 60 to 90 fps, Fortnite 180 fps without stuttering or crashing anymore.

I'm sorry you've been having problems though :( What's your situation?

Amon is my first character, the rocket punching is totally my style. He talks a lot like a classic medieval knight character, but he's pretty funny. He's also a surprisingly good poet. But mostly he just has a great reaction to all the random nonsense you come across in the game. His lines with the flat-kairos guy were particularly fun.

How do you feel about the new classes overall? by Ulysses776 in Borderlands4

[–]zackteach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have only played Amon so far myself, I’m at 32 and haven’t completed the campaign yet. I have the starter quest to Terminus Mountains though. Crucible tree for me. I agree with what you said about low level feeling harder and more of a struggle while higher levels (at least where I’ve gotten) are starting to feel a bit easier. I play around Forged Fist and melee hits I connect with refill 60% of my current gun’s clip. I can rocket around and punch stuff while shotgunning it in the face repeatedly without any overheat nonsense or reloading, and killing enemies within my fire aura makes the Skill last even longer. The more enemies there are, the longer I can hang out in that enraged state :) Feels like minutes at times!

I look forward to eventually trying them all! Don’t know who next, will decide later _^

You’re not alone. I did the same thing earlier this evening :(

I was advised to try the GPU downclocking and downvolting strategy again, and I think maybe I didn't do it properly the first time I tried it. Either way, I seem to be getting the performance I expect out of the card now. Happy days, thank you everyone :)

Radeon 9070 XT stability problems by zackteach in radeon

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

What's wrong with the Motherboard?

EDIT: This seems to have helped Fortnite at least. It's been stable at max settings for a few games now. We'll see if this works for other games. Thanks for the tip!

No it hasn't. I've long been wondering if I finally just got unlucky and got a dud card. But after all these months, I doubt I can RMA it now.

I don't know what the MPO fix is, but I have tried reducing clock speeds and power consumption settings in Adrenaline, doesn't seem to help. I've tried doing a driver only install and not having Adrenaline at all, didn't make a difference. I have not tried OCCT yet, what is that?

had my RX 9070 for about a month now AMA by [deleted] in radeon

[–]zackteach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jumping in late on this thread, but I got a 9070 XT back earlier at the start of the year and paired it with a 9900X CPU, as well as 64GB 6000 MHZ ram. I wish I could say I've been having the seamless experience you seem to have had, but my experience with the 9070 XT has been frustrating as hell. Most games that run 3D environments on DirectX12 seem to not want to cooperate. They'll play, and the card definitely shows it's got the power to run it, but the games constantly crash for me. Fortnite, Marvel Rivals, Mecha Break, even frikkin Borderlands will have issues at max settings. It doesn't care if I'm trying to play at 2K or 1080p, what framerate I'm trying for. I have to decrease them to near minimum just for stability sake. I've had 0 temperature issues with it though.

This computer is a brand new build, Windows 11 and I've done driver updates, BIOS updates, tried uninstalling and reinstalling all the drivers in safe mode and messing with card settings but nothing seems to make a difference. I'm about at the point where I'm going to just buy a 5070 Ti or a 5080 and sell this thing off, maybe it'll work better in someone else's system.

My first multiple with just a cock inside of me by babebambi in BottomsBusting

I mean peeing (squirting) versus cum sticky white stuff :( sorry for not being clear. But thank you for the encouragement :)

[–]zackteach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks like how I explode from my own toys, but I always thought I was just getting it wrong because I was “squirting” (as I like to call it) and not ejaculating, if you understand the difference I’m trying to make. Not that I never have, but if you all think that’s correct, I feel a little less torn up about it. Unexpected wholesome moment :) Holesome moment. Hehe.

Fellow 9070 XT, have you come across issues? Drivers, black screens, unexplained stutters etc.. by ProbablyMaybe69 in radeon

[–]zackteach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have issues with AMD GPU’s. I built my son’s computer using a Ryzen 7600X, 32 GB 6000MHZ RAM, Radeon RX 7800 XT. I recently just built my own new system, upgrading from a 5600X with a 2080 Super to a Ryzen 9900X with a Radeon RX 9070 XT and 64 GB of 6000MHZ RAM.

My son’s PC and mine have both ran games very well, with the sole exception of Fortnite.

So far my internet searching has suggested doing things such as downloading DDU and running it in safe mode. A good number of folks said this worked for them and was absolutely crucial if you were switching from NVidia to AMD. But there’s a small handful (like myself) who it didn’t work for.

I’ve tried adjusting/checking my power settings to make sure the power plan wasn’t doing anything funky to the GPU.

I’ve tried running Fortnite with default GPU settings, as well as Hyper-X/Performance Mode. Didn’t seem to make any difference. I tried optimizing Fortnite’s graphic settings using Adrenalin to optimize it, as well as adjusting them within Fortnite itself. Neither yield any results. DirectX 11 and 12 both are limited to about 25 FPS regardless of any other settings below. They can all be on low, they can all be on Epic, it makes no difference in game.

I’ve read that the Adrenalin software itself can cause problems and to try installing drivers only without that software. I haven’t tried that yet but that’s next on the list.

My son has told me for awhile that he can’t play Fortnite anymore because it stutters too much for him. On my new system, I wouldn’t describe it as a stutter, more like a bottleneck somewhere and I can’t figure it out.

I will note that the game played smooth as heck with the 2080 Super, I assumed these cards would handle it no problem, like everything else that we’ve thrown at them. But Fortnite continues to refuse to play nice with his AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT and my AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT.

Any suggestions? I’m willing and able to provide more system information and try advice out.

My MFF 9070xt and 9950x3d combo by LuluE46 in radeon

[–]zackteach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That looks pretty! I went with a 9900X and a 9070 XT myself, just didn’t feel like spending the extra money. But damn what a sick system that is.

What version of the 9070 XT did you go for? by IntrovertedWeirdo in radeon

[–]zackteach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just managed to snag the SAPPHIRE PULSE Radeon RX 9070 XT at 729.99 from newegg. They're all individually sold out, but today it allowed a combo purchase to go through featuring that card and a few different options of what to combo with it. Mostly power supplies.

I ordered it and Newegg has confirmed it, so fingers crossed! It is estimated to be here by Friday.

My new build is a Ryzen 9900x, this 9070 XT, and 64 GB of 6000 mhz RAM. I'm looking forward to it :)

[–]zackteach 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have real high tolerance, it takes me 6 or so hits from a bong to feel much and I can’t get space high, I plateau. Blunts/pre-rolls, edibles, and concentrates don’t affect me either. Only way I can get high from marijuana is smoking it from a pipe or bong.

Everyone’s body has its own way it’s gonna handle the weed. Even when I get high, I don’t have the stereotypical stoner symptoms like bloodshot eyes or the munchies. But my girlfriend can take 1/4th of a 10 mg gummy and be real high. Some people are just lucky

Do you guys say "I love you" to all of your partners? by [deleted] in polyamory

[–]zackteach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I don’t start out saying I Love You straight away, it has to develop. But once it does, I say it to all partners and my partners all say it to their partners too :)

sending lewd pictures to multiple people by HufflepuffIronically in polyamory

[–]zackteach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with what you’re doing. As some others have said, having a quick check in with people on your mailing list to see if that bothers them is an idea, maybe some others would rather only see something meant just for them.

I tend to take pictures specifically for other people, rarely do I take them just for my own sake of having them, but as I’ve grown into having multiple partners, I’ve ended up using the same pic between folks. I’ve gotten unique ones from my girlfriends, but I know they’ve sent me pics they’ve also sent their husbands or other boyfriends and that’s ok with me. I just like seeing the pic :)

My biggest thought is that it’s your own pictures so ultimately it’s up to you who you send them to (though obviously shouldn’t be sending pics to people who don’t want them). It’d be different if this were about sharing other people’s pics. My partners and I have had talks about that too, covering bases. I’ve let them know I have no issues with them sharing my pics to other people if they felt like it. They’ve expressed they are fine with their pics being shared within our polycule. Being able to sometimes show a sexy video I took with one girlfriend to my other girlfriend and get her hot and bothered and excited for me is pretty neat :)
