4k gaming machine !!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was a little hesitant buying it since I have never used an amd Gpu but I made the decision and don’t regret it at all this Gpu can do 4k 120fps at native and at maxed out settings but some games like cyberpunk you will need upscaling and the temps will not go past 57 degrees at 50% fan speed but overall it’s an amazing card in my opinion this is a better buy than the 4080 super unless your a creator and care about ray tracing but if you want just raw gaming performance go with the 7900 xtx also 24gb of vram is so good I still can’t believe that the 4080 super still has 16gb of vram at 1000$ but that’s just me I think ima stick with amd for a while.

Great card, ignore the ignorance of 1/2/3 stars
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Anyone talking about pulling over 400 watts and the games crashing has over clocked/under volt and has unstable settings and clearly doesnt know what they are doing and it’s best to ignore their stupidity. I am new to the oc/uv world but actually did my research on how to properly do it and have had zero issues. Any good guide you follow should tell you that oc/uv isnt a one setting works for everything. This card does lack in ray tracing but imo, if you want good ray tracing, you buy the 4090 or wait until next gen like myself because the 4090 struggles doing it in fortnite, which is the new unreal engine 5 meaning any new games coming are going to be taxing for even the 4090 if you want to run the game maxed out. Also, if youre like me and mainly play COD, this is the best card at any resolution or settings. 1440/4k ultra settings itll get higher fps than the 4090. I play my games on high settings with no upscaling. Pics are 4k ultra and 1440p ultra mwII benchmarks

GREAT UPGRADE FOR THE PRICE
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.GREAT CARD FOR THE PRICE I have been looking for GPU Card for sometime but did not want to pay over a grand for one. I did some research and finally settled on this one. This blows my old 1080 out of the water. It can plan Forza Horizon 5 on max settings with not issue. I will be testing it on Starfield when it is released. It is a large card so make sure you have the room. Also it is a heavy card and it does come with a support but you may want to get an additional support to hold it in place.

Power Hungry Monster!!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So, this generation is as bad as the last generation when it comes to cost. I previously spent $1k on a 6700 XT; which was a "deal" considering the mining tax at the time. I then picked up the 6900 XT after the mining crash for $700 and they are both fantastic GPUs. The 6700 XT is really a 1440p card, but Shines @4k with FSR 2.x turned on. The 6900 XT is twice the card and can handle native 4k/60 at max settings as well. This all makes perfect sense and again I would highly recommend either of those GPUs at their current prices based on the performance and VRAM capacity you're getting. Admittedly, AMD's GPUs don't run "traditionally RTX geared Ray Tracing" as well as the newer RTX 4080 or 4090, but they do just as well or better in newer ray tracing games; as can be seen in Fortnite using unreal engine 5. This card is hundreds of dollars less than an RTX 4080 and it has way more memory; which we are going to need considering even some of today's UE4 games use 17GB with maxed out settings at 4k. It's also almost $1k less than an RTX 4090 and literally trades blows with that GPU in most of the games I own. It's just incredibly fast and will age like fine wine (again and as will AMD's 6xxx series GPUs) as Ray Tracing moves from its current mish mash state to a more refined model in UE5. The Huge number of AAA games coming out over the next 5-10 years that will use UE5 is Staggering. I had no need to swap out my case (This 7900 XTX is only slightly longer than the 6900 XT as you can see), or my 850w power supply. This card takes 3x8pin power plugs and does suck down a fair amount of juice, but the performance is simply extraordinary and I cannot stress enough the Long Term Value vs Nvidia's current offerings. If the 4080 had 20-24GB of VRAM and only cost $200 more, maybe. That said, this card still beats it easily in rasterization (aka most games) and with FSR it's also easily capable of just powering through the current RT implementations. I would have considered a 4090 as well, but it would need to be no more than a $300 premium over this. That's partially bc it would have required a brand new $200 PSU to boot. All in all I'm absolutely in love with this card specifically. As with the XFX 6700 XT and 6900 XT the cooling solution is Over Engineered to handle way more than is necessary. This results in amazingly high clock speeds and shockingly low temperatures. As Happy as I am with this GPU now, I cannot wait to see all of the new UE5 games coming in this year and in the decade to follow. Grab yourself one of these if you can! You'll be very happy you did! *Pictured (all XFX) RX 580, 6700 XT, 6900 XT and the 7900 XTX

Great gpu!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This card can handle graphically demanding games fairly well, such as cyberpunk on ultra settings and avatar frontiers at max with ray tracing. It runs minecraft raytracing flawlessly, i love the upgrade from my old 580

Worth It
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had this gpu for about 6 months now. Personally, I don’t have anything bad to say about it, other than the price. The price is a bummer, but for top tier gpus today this seems to be the norm. Here’s a few pros and cons to summarize my experience. Pros: Very fast for games with high frame rates (1440p) Stays cool and quiet during heavy use Easy to use (AMD Adrenaline is extremely user friendly) No software crashes after initial set up Cons: Price (even though it has slightly dropped) Size - this thing is freaking huge PSU requirement - make sure to have AT LEAST a 800w PSU (a good one at that)

Best AMD GPU right now
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my first AMD graphics card and likely won't be my last. I came from a Nvidia 1060 & 2060. This is a massive value for the money. Great performance for a very competitive price. It only sits below the 4090 (which is to be expected) and is massively cheaper and more available. If you aren't big into ray tracing then this beats out the 4080 as well.

Awesome Card!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome Card, if you are reading this it is because you are thinking about buying a 7900 XTX. You will be very pleased with it's performance, and it has 24GB of V Memory! I will not need to even think about needing to upgrade for years to come. I Highly recommend buying.

RTX 5080 Competitor
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The reviews are in, and if you've seen any of them you'll know the 7900 XTX stands toe to toe with the RTX5080. If you're disinterested in the AI frame gen technology and want to stay on the pure path, this card is the best you're going to get in AMD's lineup. The 9070 doesn't even compare to the 7900XTX, it's going to live on another generation as the big boy AMD card so make sure you get your before stock dries up and you're forced to shell out double after market.

Great performance, when it isn't crashing
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was unable to play any games without some kind of driver crash. On R6 siege, I ended up getting LESS FPS than my 3080 for some reason. Temps were 100% amazing, even at 23% the max junction temp was 83-84c. This thing draws A LOT of power.. I was seeing a max draw of 472 watts, even at idle it was pulling nearly 100 watts. Will be a great card if the drivers get ironed out. Also, this thing is HUGE. Still had plenty of room in my Meshify 2 XL, but normal cases might struggle.

Blazing fast, good drivers.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good performance for the price, IMO. I came from an RTX 3080, and this card blows me away with how good it is. I decided to give team red a chance for the first time in over a decade. My first GPU was the AMD 7970 Lightning by MSI; the experience is now much better. I was having constant crashing issues on my Nvida card playing COD MW2, and this card has no issues. If you aren't wanting to spend $600 more for a 4090 then this is the way to go for most people.

Fantastic card and drivers are improving!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a 6700 xt on 2 Samsung G9 49" ultrawides, one stacked on top of the other, with 2 1080p lcd monitors in portrait mode. It ran great. I had no complaints, other than the split from stacking to 2 G9s on top of each other. For Christmas I bought myself a 55" LG OLED C2 panel and upgraded my side monitors to 2 31.5" LG LED monitors. Well, my poor 6700 xt struggled to say the least. Using AMDs upscaling helped a bit in gaming, but I still had issues running my trading software across 3 displays. This card has no issues whatsoever, and I feel like the picture quality and improved vastly as well. Very happy with this purchase! The only issue I ran into is my mid sized case didnt allow for the support bracket. I epoxied a dowel rod to the case to hold it in place.

XFX MERC 310 7900XTX
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I compared this GPU with several other 7900XTXs online beefier massing my purchase. At the time, there weren't any in stock at my local MC, and Best Buy only carried this card and Gigabyte's variant. The XFX had overall great reviews so I decided to get it. First: It's a long card. I had to move my front radiator to the top of my case. This is not a complaint, as I took measurements before I bought the card and was prepared for that. It's not as fat as other cards, either. - It's pretty quiet. The only stock case fan in my build seems to be louder than the 3 fans on this GPU at load. - It runs very cool compared to my previous 6900XT. At the same fan curve the XFX 7900XTX is easily 15-20 degrees cooler than my previous GPU. During gaming I'm averaging about 55-65 degrees on the GPU and 70-75 junction temps. - This is a solid 4k GPU, and i only play at 1440p, so it demolishes everything I play with ease. I really don't have any cons. It's s great GPU.

Amazing
||Posted .

Could I have spent more for ray tracing yes, but I love the graphics. Definitely worth the purchase!!

It's a beast.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a beast. Big, beautiful, and loud as hell if you want it to be. It sucks back power like there is no tomorrow in Rage mode but is quiet as can be and still cool as a cucumber in balanced. I've pushed everything I can at this monster and it's eaten them all, and video editing has never run smoother.

Very impressed with first AMD card!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Moved up from a 2070S to experience 4K gaming at 120fps and this card blew me away. Hitting between 90-120fps at ultra settings on modern titles like God of War Ragnarok and FF7 Rebirth. It is very big but makes sense being a heavy hitter, at a cheaper price than Nvidia options for similar performance.

Good but there are better options
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Im a little torn on this card. It worked well for a month, then started getting artifacts on half of my ultrawide monitor. It would appear while starting certain games then would go back to normal. I used DDU to wipe drivers and reinstall but was getting the same issue. I returned for a 4080 and it works flawlessly. This card is a beast and actually gets more fps than the 4080. I would look at another manufacturer if you are dead set on the 7900xtx. but now that the 4080 super is basically the same price, I personally would recommend team green
