The XFX THICC RX 5700 XT was the worst 5700-series we looked at, primarily at fault for poor thermal performance and poorly configured fan curves.

The XFX THICC, ironically, had the biggest issue with its curves. Fan curves, that is. In further testing and attempting to fix the XFX RX 5700 XT THICC (with AMD Navi), we discovered that the plastic embellishments along the PCB also caused issues, as did mounting pressure, thermal paste application, and backplate. Basically everything was causing thermal transfer problems, and that's something we were able to explore in this video of attempted fixes. Not all improved the card, but we did find the important ones that can.
