This is a great GPU. it’s the most premium version of the 7900 XT from XFX, and arguably the best version of the 7900 XT that you’ll find manufactured by anyone.
I typically run games at 1440p but it handles 4K very well when I do. At 1440p it runs almost everything at native Max/Ultra settings and maintains 120+ FPS, even intensive games with mandatory ray tracing like Indiana Jones the Great Circle. However, you really need to have ray tracing set to lowest possible. Kick in path tracing in games like Alan Wake 2 or Cyberpunk and you’ll drop below 30 frames, it’s just a limitation you’ll find on RDNA3 GPUs, and shouldn’t be a surprise. Playing native 4K games without RT/PT, I generally get around 60 FPS at least
Using AMD Adrenaline for drivers and customization of the clock speed and other things is a breeze and allows for easy overclock and undervolting.
It also looks great. IMO XFX tends to be a bit on the flashier side with many models. This one, the Black version is more refined and just looks like it’s a solid device without any flash needed. Aluminum backplate and small LED XFX logo. Refined not flashy.
It also stays nice and cool. Even under heavy load it’s always stayed under 70 with a hotspot max only ever reaching 81 or so. Typically it’s around 65 c (not hotspot). Also XFX gets some flak for being loud, and I agree because a 6750 XT I have is loud, but this is not. No coil whine or excessive fan noise.
Overall this is a premium quality GPU and excels in pretty much all aspects.

★★★★★An absolute monster - Literally...
Like most of you, searching for a next gen GPU just to get the best performance we can for the hard earned dollar that we spend. I've been eye balling this and the 4070ti for some time and while I'm seeing similar results in benchmarks, I ultimately went for this due to two things - VRAM and price.
Now that this card hit the $720 range(as of 7/9/23), this is about as much as I'm comfortable in spending on an upgrade. Did I need to? Not really, but my RTX 3070 was doing good, it wasn't exceptional. This has put my computer back into the stratosphere, limited only by the hz of my beautiful 3440x1440 monitor.
My 3070 average fps @ 3440x1440:
RDR2 - 50 to 70 (medium to high)
Hogwarts Legacy 50 to 70(medium to high)
BF2042 - 60 to 80 (medium to high)
Diablo 4 - 100 to 120 (high with DLSS quality)
7900xt at 3440x1440p - capped at 120hz monitor
RDR2 - 90 to 110(Ultra)
Hogwarts - 110 to 120(Ultra)
Diablo 4 - 120(ultra)
Bf2042 - 100 to 110 (Ultra)
You could say I didn't need to upgrade, as my 3070 was powerful enough for anything I threw at it, but I did have to drop settings and I started getting some nasty stuttering due to the 8GB VRAM. I'm now with a +40% boost AND maxed settings, with the stuttering gone on everything.
Very happy with this purchase and so will my 14 year old son as he's getting the 3070.
One large(pun intended) negative is the size - this thing is definitely the largest GPU you'll have used in your case. I'm using an NZXT H510i and it BARELY fit - I couldn't even use the Z-support bar that came with the card. I'll have to purchase a vertical bar to keep it from sagging.
Overall - if you can get this card for $700-$720 - I'd say it's a very good buy. Install was a breeze and the AMD drivers went just as well.
Pros:
Cooling - stays around the 60s temps.
Sound - can't hear it - no coil whine at all.
Price - MSRP is where the 3080 used to be at, with about a 25% gain in performance.
VRAM - 20 gigs!
Software - Never did I think to say it, but I dig the AMD software over Nvidia's.
Cons:
VERY large - make sure you can stuff a 13.5 inch card in your case - add probably another inch with the zbar
TDP - expect this thing to consistently draw 350ish watts at stock settings
Get it!
Specs:
850w EVGA PSU
Ryzen 9 5900X @4.6 All Cores
32 GB DDR4 3600mhz Corsair LPX
XFX RX 7900XT Black
BTW - excuse the wiring in my pic - I'll fix it later

★★★★★From a die-hard Nividia fanboy, this is a Great card for a good price!
This card is awesome! I purchased this card a few years ago and it's still running strong! I used to be a Nividia fan since 2012. With their new cards being overpriced and hard to find, I picked one of these up to try. Out of the box, It works very well. The noise level is a little on the high side but you can easily get used to it. I did do some extra overclocking but that's because I do a lot of 3D texturing and modeling. Gaming wise, it runs ever game on ultra graphics at 2k resolution flawlessly at 165 fps. It does struggle a little with ray tracing enabled but you an easily tweak the card's settings in the AMD adrenalin control panel. I highly recommend this card for anyone looking for an affordable card!

★★★★★Just Get it.
Stop sleeping on XFX. This is my third card of there's and it just keeps getting better. It's not the most silent one around but is in my mind has the best bang for your buck. I've never had problems with them or any coil whine. And personally, I like the sleek look of the card without too much RGB. Love it, and definitely sticking with them for the future. Quality is great.
