Hi. What is your experience with RX 570 in terms of system stability?

But it kind of depends on the where you values are... open source, with 30% extra power while gaming? or closed source with 30% less power while gaming...
Kind regards

Yeah. Like how my Westmeres don't have AVX support. I'm sure that effects my results.

Are there newer games out there today which mandate AVX support? I've heard just of a very small portion and that mostly due to DRM. Anything I threw at my Westmere worked so far. By the way, benchmarking them at stock clockspeeds would be pointless as well as everyone overclocks them to at least 4 Ghz.
My GPU is also running at almost stock clock speeds...I "overclocked" the memory to what almost every other 580 ships with. Mine came with 1750mhz from the factory and I bumped it up to 2000mhz. Other than that, it's extremely undervolted...that high temperature heat exchanger comment wasn't a joke. I like my hardware to last so i try not to overclock at all.
I know there's a PS4 emulator that needs AVX support...but apparently AVX is part of DX12 so it'll start being more common as DX12 becomes more common. Ubisoft has released a few games that didn't work on launch due to an AVX requirement, but later fixed with patches.

I bought RX 570 4G recently to (hopefully) increase system stability. It has been running stable in Linux so far. The chip is reported as RX 470 by glxinfo, so the manufacturer might have used an RX 470 chip in the card and sell it as RX 570 because of increasing memory frequency to effective 7GHz.
I had to turn off C-states, turn off Cool&Quiet, and fix the CPU frequency in BIOS to make Ryzen 1600 stable.
Edit: And to add. My 580 runs really damn stable. My only issue with it is how hot it runs by default. Lowered the voltages a bit and fixed that problem. I can see a 570 having similar heat issues.Last edited by skeevy420; 07 May 2019, 09:34 AM.

One of the reasons I bought RX 570 instead of 580/590/Vega is that I wanted it to be less noisy. Idle temperature is 35℃ (according to /sys/class/drm). radeontop logging does not measure temperature nor fan speed, so I don't have numbers corresponding to high GPU load.
Before undervolting it, it thermal throttled like crazy under load and now it doesn't get hot enough to throttle which makes a big difference playing games.

Mine idles low just fine, it's when pushing it under a gaming load that temperature becomes an issue. I could have made that a bit more clear.
