Sapphire AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX 24GB

Ive been using 90% Nvidia gpu's for the better of 35 yrs , but Ive had it with Nvidia's ceo and raping its customers . Ive decided AMD is looking good these days and Ive been happy since early Ryzen and SUPER happy with my 5900X rig for the last 18/24+ months that Ive decided to switch to an AMD gpu . ~ Basically with the three ultrawide screens (7680x1440) I was going over the 12gi limit on my Evga 3080 FTW Ultra 12gig . I was not going over the 12 gig by much (so I thought, and proved otherwise) , but knew I was restricting myself visually , in game FPS , etc . Likely any future usage might/WOULD be problematic . ~ Hence the 7900xtx Nitro , going by some other reviews , the xtx was a no brainer and the Nitro was told , built well , ran cool and quite was an added plus and a must in all respects . ~ To make a long story short .... The AMD 3 screen setup was a bit to get used to vs Nvidias 3 screen setup and Iam still learning on tweaking the screens to my liking , but I expected a bit of learning curve . ~ Ok , day one just try the card out ..... NICE! ....running quite , cool and wonderful on a few of my AAA games thus far and definitely going over that NVidia 12gig limit to a 17/18+ gig average of video memory with the XTX . ~ I think (I know) I made the right choice to switch and the correct brand and version of the 7900XTX . ****** I must note though , the first 7900xtx Nitro was DOA (my first ever gpu doa over all these yrs ) I had Amazon send me another (kinda a pain as the changed how this used to be done) , but Got the new card the next day (thanks Amazon) , and the second Nitro fired up right away and in 15 minutes was up and running some test/games/etc. ~ *** Wish these cards had a 3 yr warranty instead of 2 , but I opted for the 4 yr after market warranty as I know 2 yrs is not enough and Ive learned not to always count on some companies on rma's being problem free , such as Evga's used to be all these years . Right now Iam very happy thus far even it only being day two of usage . ~ If anything major changes I will update . Wallet is definitely abit lighter , but I know its worth it for me and I should be more than ready for yrs to come . **** SYSTEM : Ryzen 5900x (on mild custom water loop), MSI Mag X570s , 7900xtx Nitro+ , Gskill 3600/18/ 2x32gig , Multiple Nvme/Sata SSD's , Creative AE5+ s/card , 3x 34" LG Ultrawides (in AMD EyeInfinity ) . Corsair 780T case . EDIT UPDATE : Ive now had the gpu for two months now and Iam still happy with my decision to sell my Evga RTX 3080 FTW3 Ultra 12gig and replace it with this 7900xtx . ~ Ive had a few problems , but nothing major or even closed to major . ~ Part of the problem was learning the best settings for the 3 Ultrawide's as one , and a few other settings that were new/different from my past Nvidia settings . ~ At this time all problems have been resolved/learned and all games have been rock solid since this review update . ~ Gpu does run nice and cool and quite (set at 50/55% fan at around 60 degree *c) and running at 7680x 1080p/1440p with all games running at its native rez with 120-160 fps on average . At this time I have ZERO regrets switching to an AMD gpu and happy as heck that I should be good for some time to come (including amount of gpu memory) ! *UPDATE 9/9/23 Card is still running great , no problems with latest driver update(s) , some games look even better at default resoltion . Latest installed 23.102 . ~ Not sure if I need update 23.11.1 . *UPDATE : 02/27/2024 Ok , eight months later with my Sapphire Nitro+ 7900xtx and ........ STILL happy as heck with my gpu , and its been running extremely well , cool and quite as usual with all 3 screens for gaming. ~ No problems to speak of , AMD drivers have been pretty good and solid over the months. ~ HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY ! **** SYSTEM : Ryzen 5900x (cpu on mild custom water loop w/ 2x rads), MSI Mag Wifi x570s , 7900xtx Nitro+ (stock/oc bios) , Gskill 3600/18/ 2x32gig , Multiple Nvme/Sata SSD's , Creative AE5+ s/card , 34" LG Ultrawide's (in AMD EyeInfinity 7860x1080/1440p ) . Corsair 780T case . ***** (UPDATE : 8/9/24 , 14 M0NTHS later w 7900xtx) Well its 14 months later already with my beautiful Sapphire Nitro+ .... Still running the same 5900x system as previously mentioned , but now running the "native" resolution of 10320 x 1440 in EyeInfinity vs my past 7680 x1440 (due to slight monitor change) . Bottom line .....STILL super happy with my Nitro+ 7900xtx .. Thx to AMD and driver updates , this card still handling all my gaming withOUT being self overclocked as of yet. ~ Solid gaming , drivers have been good , temps are xint , all is GREAT in my long time gaming experience (35+yrs) . Have no intentions of changing my gpu , but ..... maybe to AMD 7 or 9 series 7900x3d or 9000 ? ; but still in no hurry or need atm . Bottom line , lam VERY HAPPY still with the Sapphire 7900xtx Nitro+ (solid card , temps cool , very quite = LUV)\ ***IMPORTANT UPDATE : I forgot to mention , I have upgraded the PSU for this card about 4 months back (about a year in on owning this gpu) from my Evga G3 850 watt , to a Seasonic Vertex 1200 watt ; this due to using a 10300x1400 resolution I now use that was causing minor game blick outs . Since the PSU change all is extremely well again in all pc work including heavy gaming . ` ***UPDATE 2/1/2025 My beautiful 7900xtx Nitro+ is STILL doing fantastic and still at native 10300 x1440p (no upscaling or bs fake frames here ) while in AMD EyeInfinity ( 3 screens as one). ~ Card runs everything nicely and STILL not running it overclocked yet . ~ Stable , problem free , quite and runs nice cool and quite (very quite ) .... GOD I really luv this card , and it has been a good investment even at 1k and still NO need to upgrade after 20+ months ~and this is still on my Ryzen 5900x (yes oc'd )/MSI 570x as mentioned in earlier review . ~ Thank You AMD ,Sapphire and Amazon !!! (I'll try and send pic's of setup time permitting) .

I have built computers - for decades. Getting the correct GPU for your build takes some effort and research. Do your research, make sure your motherboard, cpu and power supply will support the GPU you select. The Sapphire has a good reputation and this particular model has very good reviews. I purchased a refurbished unit (finding this one new would be a miracle) and almost returned it after installation until I discovered a driver conflict was causing my problems. The gpu didn't come in OEM packaging but it appeared to be new externally. I have had good luck with refurbished items through Amazon. It is definitely an improvement over my RX 6800 XT. It has been very stable and capable. It runs cooler than my old GPU and runs every game I have thrown at it I have a 1000w psu, so power hasn't been an issue. It came with a rail to prevent sagging - a problem I had with my 6800. It fit my ATX case with no problem, as expected. Pros: stable, speed is great, gaming capability is good, stability is good, and a good value Cons: hard to find new, but may still be available from reputable sources on Amazon. I do recommend this product for those who do their research and know their systems can handle this level GPU.

I recently upgraded my Asus Strix 1070 to the Sapphire Nitro+ AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, and it has completely changed my gaming experience (as to be expected). This monster of a GPU is a game-changer for anyone serious about gaming and graphics performance without shelling out for a 4090 and with the plus of no potential melting cords. Pros: Cooling: The cooling system is really well done! I have not heard any coil whine even playing Maxed Darktide (154 FPS) Design: The Nitro+ RX 7900 XTX boasts a sleek design. The metal shroud and backplate gives it a premium feel, and the customizable RGB lighting adds a touch of personalization to my rig. I don’t look at the lights so ehh. Performance: I will be using this for Video and Photo editing in the very near future. I will update my thoughts on that a bit later. I will include my Averages (These come from the AMD Adrenalin software) on games I play for reference. Everything is at 4k max settings (90% sure on all of them) Warhammer Total War 3: 56.5 FPS (This feels a little low for how buttery smooth it is) Warhammer 40k Darktide: 154 FPS State of Decay 2: 541 FPS (LOL this maybe off also) Deep Rock Galactic: 111 FPS League of Legends: 220 FPS Advanced Features: The inclusion of ray tracing and variable rate shading enhances the visual experience sure Nivida is supposed to be better but ehh not a ton of RT content out there yet and by the time there is in a few years I will get a new card. Cons: Power Requirements: This card requires larger power supply, I have a Gold 1k PSU that handles it and my 13900k just fine, so make sure your system can handle it. Higher Price Point: The premium features come at a higher price, making it more suitable for enthusiasts and serious gamers who prioritize performance. It might be overkill for users who don't engage in demanding gaming or content creation tasks. I got it on sale for 999.00 and was happy with the price to performance. I did not see the benefits of the 4090 to the price points they were asking In conclusion, the Sapphire Nitro+ AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX sets an awesome price to performance for high-end gaming graphics cards without breaking the medium spender’s bank. I will update this review later if my sentiments change in the future either in a more positive light or if I find an issue.

Spent a lot of money on this, all I can say is its 100% worth it. 4K gaming is a breeze at 60hz/120hz (in select titles) This cards primary selling point is its aesthetic appeal, and overclocking/undervolting abilities. Simply a beautiful card with very nice programmable ARGB lighting strips built in (with synchronization cable) This model features Vapor-X vapor chamber technology for improved cooling, keeping temps down under load. The card is technically a 3 slot design, but its frame extends outward, essentially turning the card into a 3.5 slot design. This will limit PCIe slot accessories due to its shear size blocking the ports. The card comes with a support bracket, Although its pretty difficult to setup properly in order to limit card sag. Fans are easy to clean thanks to the single screw design, making it easy to reinstall the fans after cleaning. The 24GBs of GDDR6 VRAM will keep this card relevant for a long time. It's performance is about the same as a 4080 Super overall. A BIG exception is this card is capable of ray tracing, but its far inferior compared to the 4080 Super. However, if you don't care too much about ray tracing, DLSS, or framegen, I would get this card. Its rasterization performance is better than the 4080 Super and you get an additional 8GBs of onboard memory. So for non-RT gameplay, this card is a dream. Now for the software side of things. I personally use Adrenalin drivers for my card. The drivers are usually perfect with no visible artifacting or visual anomalies in most titles. Some exceptions are made for indie games with generally lacking driver support for AMD cards. I've only experienced driver timeout due to overclocking/undervolting past a stable limit. Overall the drivers aren't that bad anymore, when compared to 2019 AMD drivers. [Disclaimer: If you want a certified stable driver, I would recommend Pro over Adrenalin.] Overall, this card will deliver in gaming, rendering, video encoding, etc. with ease (within reason) 10/10

(Updated 12-12-25) When it worked, it was good. Already having problems within the first year of ownership. Had to RMA twice, the rgb stopped working originally. Then i started getting constant driver timeouts and random reboots from the AMD software. This is likely on the software side completely from Adrenaline. They need better Q and A. Adrenaline is unreliable. Nvidia definitely has them beat with proper driver updates. But adrenalin has so much more options to tweak. As far as my RMA experience, more disappointment, they use a small company with a couple of guys (Athlon Micro) who just recycle old gpu"s they "repair"; all refurbished, i use the repair term loosely, it seems they just inspect them and send them back to the wild. The two i recieved both ended up repeating the same crashes, so i gave up and accepted my fate. I won't be buying another AMD gpu. once I get my replacement, but, I don't like having to pay 60 bucks to ship off a brand new GPU in less than a year. Not feeling the customer service so far. I'm requesting a refund, the radeon software is very buggy. And sapphire cards are not reliable. Unable to use both a display port and an HDMI simultaneously without a screen freeze, ive also noticed. When it actually worked it was great.
