Have I just had bad luck with my AMD products?
I've had four Nvidia GPU/Intel CPU computers with no issues.
I've had three AMD GPU/AMD CPU computers and they all have been loud and hot and slightly unstable. A bit cheaper sure, but I rather have a silent and stable experience.
This has made me see amd as the inferior lowbudget crap. But maybe I have just bought from the wrong manufacturer or something.
You have just been unlucky. I've never had any such issue. Were you using stock CPU cooler? I'll admit the CPU cooler that comes in the box with AMD is atrocious.
I could not even be in the same room when using the stock cooler on my 3900x that I have now.
Had to use a radiator with silentwing fans to get it acceptable.
so this is also several years ago that you had this problem I don't I think you will have those problems with a modern GPU
2020 I bought my new pc.
He's talking about noise, not thermals.
