Downloaded the drivers.
They just will not install??
Get errors just as im installing about halfway through.
Sometimes if i am installing the drivers as it gets near the end.
Theres is flickering dots all over the screen with tv im using flashing on and off and thrn to a full green screen error then have to restart.
Restart.
Get to windows.
If i click an item screen freezes few seconds.
Screen flickers on n off then it moves the mouse on screen.
Untill i press another icon.
Same thing again
What the actual fu k its been a day n half now trying to fix this.
Definatly seems a driver issue but maybe it is thr card?
Piece of shit nearlly went through the window earlier.
I might rma the card.
Get nvidia think im done with amd as heard nothing but issues with them with the drivers.

Go with 'green', please save yourself all the trouble, RMA the card. Windows 10 is bad enough without adding more poison (AMD) to the mix. At least Nvidia drivers can be de-bloated to some extent, AMD variants, not so much. 
Did you also check that you have all power connectors to the motherboard?, ATX 24, 4, 8, 8, etc.
Is your PSU supplying enough AMPS on each rail that your hardware needs? (forget about wattage).
If your having trouble with the RMA process, I can help a little , and you may just get an RX 5700 XT back?, but I'll need an extra brick off you.

Sounds like a hardware issue to me. If you were OCing flickering dots usually says its a memory issue. Could be a heat issue on memory too. Anyway, it shouldn’t happen. So better to send it back.
"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

Finally sorted the problem.
It was the order in which i installed all the drivers.
I installed the chipset drivers before the gfx card drivers and it seems fine now.
Downloaded for honour.
Looks a good game this.

i dont think i ever really needed chipset drivers to get a gfx card working though ... , and i had agp and pci cards , windows comes preloaded with basic stuff that works for installing the card normally

Take what you will Franty  You can install 'said' chipset info, but, even on Windows 7, the devices will still want a driver for them, if they should have none, regardless. The chipset package itself contains nothing, as regards drivers, thus, it couldn't have had anything to do with the original problem, which is what I was meaning. How can a chipset package, which installs zero, apart from information, cause a GFX card to not work? Nonsense. The reinstall of the GFX drivers probably fixed whatever was wrong?, I dunno?, but it certainly was nothing to do with the chipset inf install. Get a random chipset package and extract the .exe yourself. There are no drivers in it whatsoever.
Believe me, I've forgotten more than you will ever know.
