Asus will now ship the cards with higher mounting pressure and will offer an upgrade to people that already purchased the card.     The ROG Strix Radeon Rx 5700 series of graphics cards experienced over-heating issues. Asus states that of torqued cards to a mounting pressure of 30-40 PSI "based on AMD's baseline recommendations". This pressure seemed low and following testing from Asus, the company determined that a pressure of 50-60 PSI works better. Here's an extract of Asus post:      "Initial batches of ROG strix Rx 5700        series graphics cards were torqued         to 70-30 PSI based o
