is that post installation?

i downloaded it onto a usb stick, and used the bios to update it. took 2 min

had exactly same issues as yours, i thought the RX580 works straight OTB. also i used unibeast 8.1 to get through the installation. as couldnt get it to work with 8.2

Can someone here which has it stable , can share his efi so I can check mine is similar or same . I seem to have random reboots. Thanks
