This is it. If you want the best bang-for-your-buck high-end card in the current gen, this right here is the one to buy. Anything else is either inferior performance or grossly overpriced.

After running nVidia's swan song, the GTX 1080 Ti, from mid-2017 until November of 2023, it was time for an upgrade, and looking at the market there was (and still is) absolutely no WAY I was going to pay nVidia's absurd prices for the garbage they're trying to hock now. Almost an entire year to release a 4070 Ti with more than 12 GB of VRAM, when I was already running 11GB since 2017? For $800? Lose my number, nVidia.

Snarky complaints aside, I don't upgrade my card often so I needed something that would hold me for another several years, and boy howdy so far this has been it. I am once again running EVERYTHING at 60fps, in 4k, at max settings. No leaning on the FSR crutch; if I wanted an upscaling cheat I would just send it at 1080p to my TV and let it handle the rest. I used to not care much about VRAM, but in this day & age you really do need 12-16 minimum to keep your performance smooth at high quality settings, so having 20GB at my disposal makes this card feel pretty solidly future-proof.

Build quality is great, noise levels are great, temperatures are great, stability is great. I have literally not had a single issue with this card, other than one single game from 2009 (Burnout: Paradise) which I had to drop down to 1080p because the decade-old rendering engine would crash in 4k during certain camera sequences. Not much of a loss considering that game was made for the 1080p era anyway. Be advised, I did absolutely use DDU to make sure the install was as clean as possible; whether that's the reason the drivers have been so stable, or whether it's because AMD's drivers just work fine nowadays, I can't honestly say. Personal favorite feature: being able to toggle EyeFinity on and off with the click of a single button, to get that immersive 5760x1080 triple-monitor wraparound for games like War Thunder. Let me tell you, doing the same thing in nVidia Surround was a MAJOR pain.

As previously mentioned, I got this card in early November 2023. It's now early May 2024, and I still have zero problems and zero regrets. I cannot recommend it enough; this IS the card you want, if you're looking for high-end performance at a reasonable price. Happy gaming.

Comes with a support bracket since it's a big card, which was a little difficult for me to install, and had to adjust the bracket support rubber thing a little to ensure it made contact with the card by loosening it a little, and pressing up for a little vertical adjustment before retightening. Feels sturdy and well built. Has some coil whine, but that's to be expected when on the menu screen for games and it's at over 300-600 fps. The coil whine is unnoticeable when playing games and in particular when not in a menu screen. Coil whine as I understand it can be mitigated by keeping refresh rates below 300-400 fps, and that possibly swapping out the power supply so the card and PSU don't have harmonizing frequencies. For reference, I'm using an EVGA 850W G6 power supply. The card recommends a 700W power supply.

Runs Doom Eternal with max settings and raytracing enabled at 1440x3440 at 160 fps. The Riftbreaker, same resolution, raytracing enabled and settings also at 140-160 fps in the graphics benchmark.

Temperatures seem to max out around 75-78 C. Fans can get a little loud if they need to rev up, but that doesn't happen very often during my games and is quieter than my older XFX Radeon rx 580. IMPORTANT NOTE about fan speed, going into Adrenalin (the AMD Software driver) to manually change the maximum fan speed to only 50% instead of it going to 70% then 100% when going above certain temperatures, the fan noise was significantly decreased, while the Hot Spot temperature was interestingly no different than when the fan speed was at 70-100% despite the GPU utilization/load being at 100%.

Playing Doom Eternal with these changes, I didn't notice it at all. I tested Quantum Break, and was getting about 65 or so fps, however from what I've read online, that game is an unoptimized mess, so given that being the case, and that my older rx 580 was only getting 14 fps, I'd consider that a win.

SUMMARY (TL/DR section)

Overall, a well built, quiet and fast card. If you can't get the XTX card, you might not notice any performance difference with just the XT. I do recommend changing your maximum fan speed to 50% in the Adrenalin software for quality of life and without it really impacting temperatures.

I've had this for awhile now and have used it on heavy workloads and lots of gaming, and it has been great. I moved up from a 1660ti to this (7900xt).

- Solid Construction

- Fantastic heat dissipation

- I can't hear it, but my cpu fan is huge and loud.

- Drivers have been working fine, one hiccup so far but it was solved within minutes of updating the software

- I love all the options in the AMD software, it's a league above Nvidia's.

- This thing produces a lot of heat. It goes around 320 watts for me at 100% utilization. However, the card stays at about 72c which is amazing.

Will run 4k at 60+fps. I have been using it mostly for 1440p ultrawide though and have had no issue getting 144+fps on max settings on 99% of games. (monitor set to 144hz, could go much higher on most games). Cyberpunk 2077 with ray tracing on gives me about 70-90fps but it's also very smooth. Without ray tracing I'm more around 140fps, and I'm sure giving me much more in certain environments.

Using cyberpunk as a benchmark in this review since the graphics are crazy, but I have had a great experience with all games and emulators.

This card will handle anything you throw at it. I'm very pleased with the solid build, the software, and the low temps. My 1660ti got up to 80c in the same case for reference, though it wasn't a triple fan design like this.

I have been holding off upgrading my GPU for quite a while now, upgrading just about everything else in the mean time. Part of that was my previous card was a evga 2070, a card that is still pretty good. Most of it was the jaw dropping prices being asked for the 30 and 40 series, which still haven't fallen enough. Lastly the switch to AMD was due to Nvidia's behavior. While prices are still a little high, it was finally low enough to warrant the upgrade, and i am very happy with the 7900xt pulse. Its a solid card, pretty quite, runs cool (i have rarely seen it higher then the 40s c) and managed to fit in my case (i have less then an in clearance left). It comes with a support bracket to help hold up the card, which was annoying to install, but is solid and seems to offer good support. Unless you really must have the absolute top shelf (4090, 4080, 7900xtx) then this card is the best option and can match or beat anything else for now.

If I could give out 10 stars, I would. Sapphire's always been my go-to for graphics cards and their Pulse lineup is just remarkable. The build quality is superb, it's got a heft to it so you definitely need that support bracket but it just feels solid and well built (personally a fan of the red accents). Regarding it's graphical performance, it can ABSOLUTELY take on todays AAA games and would be an ideal future-proof card.

First, the 7900XT at $700 or less is a great deal in today's climate. It is a powerful card with loads of VRAM, and when kept at reasonable clocks and power limits, is quite energy efficient. The Rasterization performance is fantastic and will more than satisfy most gamer's needs!

Sure, Nvidia has better Ray Tracing and DLSS is generally better than FSR. However, if you don't use either of these technologies, as I do not, then it doesn't matter, and this is the superior card. I'll be interested in Ray Tracing when we can get 100FPS+ 1440p @ Ultra Settings + Path Tracing without Upscaling on sub $1k hardware without ridiculous power consumption. For now, RT implementations either make no difference, or require other compromises to be made to get acceptable performance.

Now, it hasn't been all sunshine and roses. When I first started using this card, I would sometimes notice stuttering. Turns out, it's a glitch after alt-tabbing, and disabling the "In-Game Overlay" option in Adrenaline solved this. Just took forever for me to figure out. I even upgraded from my 5800x platform to 7800x3D platform to maximize performance, and it still did it. Once I disabled this setting, all good. Recent drivers claim to address this problem.

The more important problem to me is that of coil whine. I tried two of these cards, and they both had it, and I kept the less noisy of the two. Yes, limiting FPS, clock speeds, voltage, power limit, or some combination there off will help reduce it, but it still at the various least buzzes quite a bit even when these "fixes" are applied. If you go all out, maxing the power budget, 2.7Ghz, etc., the card absolutely flies! But it sounds like a pig is being tortured in my computer case. I generally like building computers as quiet as possible, so these stands out over fan noise and other noise. My old MSI RTX 3070 wasn't silent either, but it got no where near this 7900XT. Personally, I've settled on 2300-2400Mhz, -10 Power Budget, and a Radeon Chill on 120FPS on most games. This gives me the performance I want with very stable FPS (My goal), and only an occasionally noticeable sound effect emitting from the card.

I bought an RTX 4080 Super at $1k to maybe replace this card, due to stuttering and coil whine, but I figured out the stuttering (see above) before I received the 4080, so I never tried it and returned. I got the 7900XT for $670, and just had a really hard time justifying the extra $330 Nvidia tax to have just similar rasterization performance. Maybe it would have coil wined less, but people complain about those, too, so IDK.

But in conclusion, this is a great card. It runs cool and the fans are quiet, even under a max power limit extended load. And keeping it at lower clocks/power budget only loses 5-15% performance while using 25-40% less power and very cool. If it didn't Coil Whine, I'd love it. But due to coil whine and some missing features compared to Nvidia, I gotta remove one star.

Upgraded from a 6700xt 1080p 144hz setup in order to achieve 1440p 144hz. Works pretty well. Drivers need a tad bit more optimization as I had zero issues with 6700xt and had a few crashes with this 7900xt.

Card looks great. Has a bracket to help support it. I have this paired with an amd r5 3600/32gb ram/650w gold psu.

For the $670 I paid I'm not disappointed. Yes, you do pay a premium for high end cars and its no where near the "value proposition" of the mid range cards, but you have to pay if you want the top performance. It is what it is. It was originally on back order but did get it in about 2 weeks. Will update in a few months.

**Update May 2024**

Drivers are getting better. Less issues. Currently on 24.5.1. I still would definitely recommend this GPU.

**Update Jan 2026**

Card has been going strong with no issues. No driver problems. Plays all games at 1440p maxed out 144hz. Love this card.

Died A MONTH after the warranty period. Sapphire QC is apparently awful now. It started having minor issues a few months ago, but when I realized it wasn't driver related I tried to contact their support. I guess I'll go kick rocks. Avoid Sapphire. I won't be buying from them ever again.

It's a shame, this used to be a good company.

Va como un tiro, nada más que añadir, prefiero las AMD mucho antes que las Nvdia, además tienen mayor compatibilidad con distros se Linux.

Sehr Zufrieden! Hammer Grafikkarte Preis Leistung Passt
