Great card, great perfornance and runs cool
Sweet looking card, good build quality. Runs quiet, runs cool, massive performance boost over my old 3070. Big card so measure your case to make sure it will fit. Barely managed to fit it into a Jonsbo Z20 with full size ATX PSU but recommend fetting an SFX form factor PSU. Was hitting 3100mhz clock speeds stock.

Very fast but runs cool. Always cool to the touch
This is an interesting GPU. First, the heatsink is top tier which, to my surprise, allows it to run cool without running the fans. GPU fans can be noisy but these are quiet and most the time aren't running. Although this isn't the XT version, it is unexpectantly long and I was lucky that it fit into my PC case. I really appreciate how it uses the common 8 pin cable X2. You only need two 8 pin connectors so nothing fancy. Overall, it runs cool and it's fast. However, it was a channel to install in Linux. My Xubuntu 24.10 didn't play nice and neither did 24.04 (stable). Everything worked except games! So I installed 25.04 daily Live and it's great now. Very fast, runs well in Windows and Linux. Games in Linux are fast. The encoder in Linux using OBS doesn't seem to be as nice as Nvidia so I assume something needs fixing but overall it's great. I couldn't get the XT version at the time because it was out of stock but I'm very happy about this one. It runs cooler, it's easy to keep cool, it's still wildly fast. I paired it with an AMD 9950x and things are great. Oh, the build on this is TOP TIER. Fans, heatsink, backplate, everything. I will buy XFX -again-!

XFX Swift RX 9070 OC Triple Fan Edition
**Purchased on May 16th, 2025 at MSRP from Best Buy** I couldn't be more thrilled with my purchase of the XFX Swift RX 9070 OC Triple Fan Edition! After weeks of researching and watching prices skyrocket across other retailers—some asking as much as $750–$800 for this card—I was beyond grateful to find Best Buy selling it at full MSRP. Major props to Best Buy for not feeding the price-gouging frenzy and making top-tier gaming accessible to the rest of us. Right out of the box, this GPU impressed me with its premium build quality and sleek design. But the real magic started when I plugged it in—AMD’s Install Manager automatically detected the card and downloaded the latest drivers with zero hassle. It was seriously plug-and-play, which made setup a breeze. Performance-wise? Absolutely ecstatic. I'm consistently pulling well over 100 FPS at 1440p ultra settings in AAA titles, and it's holding strong at 4K with no stutter or hiccups. What surprised me most is how cool and quiet it runs, even under heavy load. The triple-fan setup keeps temps in check and noise levels minimal—even during extended gaming marathons. Even more impressive, I’m using this card in an eGPU setup paired with the AOOSTAR AG02 dock, and it has been flawless. Zero errors, no instability, and no bottlenecking whatsoever. The RX 9070 works seamlessly over USB4/Thunderbolt, and I’ve been amazed at how smooth the experience has been. It feels just like a native desktop install, and I can finally game and edit with full desktop-grade GPU power from my compact setup. This card delivers everything I was hoping for and more: ✅ Blazing fast FPS ✅ Whisper-quiet cooling ✅ Effortless installation ✅ Outstanding value for money ✅ Seamless eGPU performance If you're on the fence about upgrading or wondering if the RX 9070 is worth it—do it. I feel like I scored a unicorn here, and I couldn't be happier. Thank you again, Best Buy, for offering fair pricing and making this dream setup a reality!
