Massive upgrade over my RTX 3080.

I recently upgraded my primary game rig and cobbled together a dedicated PC VR machine out of the swapped parts. I needed a GPU with some power but not necessarily breakneck speed and wanted to balance the choice against cost. This 9070 discounted for Black Friday was perfect. I have had great luck with XFX cards previously and opted for this one. It has been fantastic. It performs well and has more than enough graphics power for my needs, while consuming less power and generating less heat than other similar cards.

Pros? Where do I even start?! Okay, so this is an upgrade from my RX 590 Fatboy Core Editon, and WOW is there a difference. I can crank the games all the way to max and still get over 100 FPS! If my 590 tried that it would beg for the sweet release of death, but the 7900 XT? It's just as smooth as a knife through melted butter. As for other people mentioning coil whine, I have yet to hear any! I mean it, I can't hear a single whine, not even under max load! On top of that, it was actually easier to install than my RX 590! It was less wide and only slightly longer. Using a Fractal Design Meshify C ATX Case, with a max GPU length of 315mm, this card fits onto my ROG Strix B450-F Gaming II with ease! And maaaaaan, does it look sleek! No flashy extra "Oooooh shiny bright" stuff, just straight raw power and performance at the ready. You want to get shtuff done? This card will get shtuff done! I haven't even touched the overclock yet! Heck, I don't even think I need to, but it's good to know I have that extra headroom! As for the cooling, I treated it the same as my poorly-designed cooler on my RX 590. I made my own fan curve to be a bit more aggressive to keep temps down (as it makes me feel safer), but this card actually unlocked so many settings I didn't even know existed on the AMD Adrenalin software! Even more so, under the stress test this thing pulls over 300W, but do I feel it? Pffft! Nah, 1000W ROG Strix PSU gives it all the beans with room to share! And the frame, ohhhh, that excellent frame! when I picked up the GPU for the first time, I felt the cold (and slightly heavy) reinforced metal framing of the card, which gave me the reassurance that this thing was DURABLE! No support bracket needed at all, which surprised me! Such performance out of a reasonably sized GPU! No need for a masonry brick that's the other guys, especially when you pair an AMD CPU and GPU together! They work in tango with each other. Paired with a Ryzen 9 5900X, nothing can stop it. I can only imagine what its like when you pair it to a Ryzen 9 7000 series! Connected to a 2K resolution 170Hz monitor, the crispness and responsiveness of the display is like a kettle-cooked potato chip, mmm-mmm-mmm good! This card is also much more stable than my RX 590, as much as people said that this thing is riddled with driver issues, I have yet to see one! Heck, this thing was basically plug and play! Didn't have to install anything! Just whim-bam-boom hooked up and ready to go!

-This GPU is fantastic

Price, Performance, Size, Color, Cooling, and Software.

So far I have okayed starfield, bo6, Indiana jones, beamng,American trucking sim and a handful more gems and this lord with the 7600x gets me over 200fps on high in 1440p in cod. And well over that in most games in 1440p

Good performance Lots of VRAM No black screens yet

Great card, runs cool and powerful, I personally like the RGB.


Looks and Price to Performance

Bajo consumo de energía. Sin problemas de temperatura. El software de AMD es muy estable.

100+ FPS in BF2042 on 4K Ultra Settings (keep in mind, that's with a Ryzen 7 7800X3D, this is a very CPU intensive title)

cost effective upgrade from existing GPU


-16gb -Supports FSR4 -dual fans are more than enough to keep it cool -relatively low power draw



- Includes 12V-2X6 to 2x8 pin adapter - Includes really nice support stand - Runs soo smoothly and now I can finally play at higher graphics without experiencing any stutters
