Configuració i instal·lació
Before beginning installation, ensure your computer is powered off and unplugged from the wall outlet. It is recommended to wear an anti-static wrist strap to prevent damage from static discharge.
1. Instal·lació física
- Open your computer case and locate an available PCIe 4.0 x16 slot on your motherboard.
- Remove any expansion slot covers that correspond to the graphics card's size (this card typically requires two or three slots).
- Alineeu amb cura la targeta gràfica amb la ranura PCIe i premeu fermament fins que quedi ben col·locada. Assegureu-vos que el clip de retenció de la placa base encaixi al seu lloc.
- Secure the graphics card to the computer case using the appropriate screws.

2. Connexió d'alimentació
The XFX RX 5700 XT Thicc III Ultra requires dual 8-pin PCIe power connectors. Ensure your power supply unit (PSU) has at least a 600W capacity and provides these connectors.
- Connect both 8-pin PCIe power cables from your PSU to the corresponding ports on the graphics card. Ensure they are fully seated.

Refer to Video 1 (0:01:07 - 0:01:21) for a visual guide on connecting power cables.
3. Instal·lació del controlador
- Once the hardware installation is complete, close your computer case and reconnect all peripherals and power.
- Enceneu l'ordinador.
- Insert the provided Driver CD into your optical drive, or download the latest drivers directly from the official XFX weblloc (www.xfxforce.com) or AMD's official weblloc (www.amd.com/en/support).
- Seguiu les instruccions que apareixen a la pantalla per completar la instal·lació del controlador. Pot ser necessari reiniciar el sistema.
Funcions operatives
1. Sistema de refrigeració avançat
The Thicc III Ultra features a robust cooling solution designed for optimal thermal performance. This includes three high-performance fans (2x 90mm, 1x 100mm), a copper GPU base, and four heat pipes to efficiently dissipate heat.
- Zero DB Fan Technology: For quiet operation during light loads, the fans will stop spinning entirely. They will automatically activate when the GPU temperature reaches a certain threshold, ensuring efficient cooling only when needed.
Figure 5: The triple fan cooling system ensures efficient heat dissipation.
Refer to Video 1 (0:00:21 - 0:00:39) for more details on Zero DB Fan Technology and (0:01:21 - 0:01:37) for insights into the internal cooling components.
2. Dual BIOS Switch (Performance/Silent Mode)
Your graphics card is equipped with a dual BIOS switch, allowing you to select between two operational modes:
- Mode de rendiment: Provides higher boost clock speeds (up to 2025MHz) for maximum gaming performance.
- Mode silenciós: Optimizes for quieter operation by adjusting fan curves and clock speeds, ideal for less demanding tasks or noise-sensitive environments.
The switch is located near the power connectors on the card's backplate. To change modes, ensure your system is powered off, then toggle the switch to your desired setting.

Resolució de problemes
Aquesta secció tracta problemes comuns que podeu trobar amb la vostra targeta gràfica.
Sense pantalla / Pantalla negra
- Comproveu les connexions: Ensure the graphics card is fully seated in the PCIe slot and both 8-pin power connectors are securely plugged in.
- Monitor Cable: Verify that your display cable (DisplayPort or HDMI) is correctly connected to both the graphics card and your monitor.
- Font d'alimentació: Confirm your PSU meets the minimum 600W requirement and is functioning correctly. Insufficient power can lead to display issues.
- Configuració de la BIOS/UEFI: Check your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings to ensure the correct primary display adapter is selected (usually PCIe/PEG).
Driver Issues / Crashes
- Instal·lació de controladors nets: If experiencing instability or crashes, perform a clean installation of your graphics drivers. Uninstall existing drivers using a utility like Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) in Safe Mode, then install the latest drivers from AMD's official weblloc.
- Compatibilitat del sistema operatiu: Ensure your operating system is up-to-date and compatible with the latest AMD drivers. Some users have reported issues with older Windows versions (e.g., Windows 8.1) requiring an upgrade to Windows 10 for full driver support.
Overheating / High Temperatures
- Flux d'aire de la caixa: Improve airflow within your PC case by ensuring proper fan placement and cable management.
- Acumulació de pols: Clean the graphics card's heatsink and fans as described in the Maintenance section.
- Fan Curves: Consider adjusting fan curves in AMD Radeon Software to be more aggressive if temperatures remain high under load.
- Pasta tèrmica: In rare cases, if the card is significantly older or consistently running hot despite other measures, reapplying thermal paste to the GPU die might be necessary (advanced users only, may void warranty).
