Put the old card back in, downloaded the AMD driver cleanup, ran that in safe mode, shut down the computer and installed the RX5700XT. Installed the new AMD drivers and ran Furmark 2 for about 20 minutes. Looks good, no issues or artifacts.

Next, I need to download a utility to copy the HDD to and SSD and build the Ryzen 5 system in a different case.
I would recommend starting with a fresh Windows install on the new SSD instead of trying to copy your old spinning drive to it. You can run into driver related issues if you use a Windows install that was setup on different hardware. Sometimes it won't even boot.
