I checked both linux-firmware-20200316 from git and linux-firmware_1.186 from ubuntu and I don't see arcturus and navi12 files that I miss in amdgpu folders. So, nothing to copy...
There are no major problems, so I think it's fine. And if it's about kernel, not firmware itself, I think I just leave it like this. Thanks.

There are rumors of RX 5300 and I'm interested in low end GPU's.
View PC info
My RX 5700 works fine on Ubuntu 18.04.4 with Mesa 20.0 and two displays, but pretty much all other combinations (Ubuntu 20.04 with Kernels 5.4 to 5.6, Mesa 20.0 and various firmware versions) run into hefty problems: long boot times, screen flicker, crashes, etc.
It's not an Ubuntu thing since a live Manjaro image exhibited the same symptoms.
It's not a hardware thing since my Ryzen 7/X570/RX 5700 combo shows the same problems as my Ryzen 5/B450/RX 5500XT.
This is however only valid if you use more than one screen.
I've attached my Ryzen 5 setup to a single 4k display and everything ran without any hiccups for hours. Connect a second display and everything goes south.
This has been my experience so far but they are closely matched by these bug reports (the first issue was reported nearly 8 months ago)

I need to buy another DP to Hdmi converter and try to reproduce this dual screen problem.

At the beginning I had some weird problems with my GPU but they got fixed with the newest Mesa Drivers and kernel release.
Also I remember I had a very weird problem like very slow startups and weird behavior of my pc and that was because of my USB HUB - took me some time to find the problem. Replaced it and got industrial usb hub.
In the past I had also PSU Issues so I always go with 1000 W or 1500 W and always with the top brands like be quiet! Dark Power Pro 12 1500W.
