Radeon RX 5700 XT Graphics Card, 8GB GDDR6 256-bit Gaming GPU HDMI DisplayPort Interface Video Card 2K 4K Game Card for Desktop PCs (Radeon RX 5700 XT)

I was a little confused when I first saw the box this comes in, because it looks like an off-brand video card from a company called MLLSE, and the documents inside the box say that you have to download drivers from peladn.com. But there is a sticker on the box, which looks like it was put there as an after-thought, saying that it is a "Radeon RX 5700 XT Graphics Card, 8GB GDDR6 256" so I suppose it really is what I ordered.I put it into a Razer Core X external GPU case, and connected it by thunderbolt cable to my NUC computer running Linux Fedora 38 with a 6.3 Linux kernel and thunderbolt 3 with 4 PCI lanes. The peladn.com website suggested that I install the amdgpu-install program and run it, but that did not seem to work, apparently because the Fedora repositories do not have some of the code that the script wants to use. So I went online and learned that Fedora does not always support AMD GPU's, and that the amdgpu-install program is not written to be run in Fedora. But then after reading more online postings I tried removing the amdgpu-install program, and relying instead on the AMD GPU capabilities that are apparently already in the Linux kernel. That seemed to work.So in the end I was successful at putting this into a Razer Core X eGPU case, connecting it to the thunderbolt 3 port of a NUC computer, and using it with Fedora 38 without installing any extra programs or drivers. I connected two 4K monitors to the Razer Core X, and both seem to work fine.In Linux this card is described as: "Navi 10 [Radeon RX 5600 OEM/5600 XT / 5700/5700 XT]" and the Linux driver being used is "amdgpu".Here are additional details from the "lshw" command in Linux:description: VGA compatible controllerproduct: Navi 10 [Radeon RX 5600 OEM/5600 XT / 5700/5700 XT]vendor: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.

I was hesitant to buy this when so many reviews say it overheats easily. But I haven't gotten it over 70 yet. That said, I don't do heavy gaming. So if you're looking at light gaming and other workstation level tasks, the card is perfect. High performance and low cost. If you do heavier gaming, get something more up to date that doesn't run the risk of overheating.P.S. For debian users, from what I can tell this card doesn't have amd gpu pro driver support and the base driver is hit or miss. So if you're on debian, I've had the best success using the driver the os comes with. Just plug and go. I've tested all the working drivers I could find with various online benchmarkers and the difference is within 100 points. So for the sake of stability I think the packaged driver is the best option.

This GPU is really good for its price. I used this for my gaming pc and its working really good so far. im getting about 300 fps on competitive setting in Fortnite.

Black screen of death after installing this GPU. I have a 750w PSU, so that is not the issue. I tried updating the BIOS, but have the latest version. Backdated BIOS, still nothing. Brought BIOS back to original. Disabled onboard graphics. Nothing. Updated graphics card drivers. Nothing. Reinstalled old graphics card, and it worked. Put back in this one, and it didn't work.It displays the BIOS menu, but on boot, there is just a black screen. Can't find customer service information for troubleshooting. There was no manual in package. I do not recommend getting this.
