XFX RX480 8GB crashes

[skiepa]

Hello everyone,

I've got a problem with above mentioned card - it crashes terminal after random amount of minutes/hours. The other card which I got (same RX made by Asus) works perfect. XFX crashes no matter if it works together with Asus or alone.
Hashrate is normal, bios is not modified - where is the problem? Did I buy very used card? (it's not brand new)

Help me, please.

Wrong section bro.....

But,have you tried older drivers,from 16.2 up to 17.4 ??

My 480 likes the 16.11 drivers & MSI afterburner for fan speed & clocking  

OH,NEVER buy used on ebay or any where,my luck with used cards is crap,return it if you can,it may be a dud

I have never done this and probably wouldn't unless a card was absolutely dead, but your thread reminded me of it and I knew someone that said it worked for them.  You can "bake" the video card, at a very low temp, like $250 for about five to ten minutes in the oven and then let it sit and cool.

What it supposedly does is heat up the soldered joints and allow them to re-set again.  I would not actually suggest it until you are ready to toss the POS in the trash, but hey, you never know.

Maybe the bios was flashed when you bought it??
