Useful video, thank you :) Shame there's no info on thermals in the review, everyone tested the Nitro+ model and found temps to be a little high, would have appreciated more of a breakdown on hotspots and operating temps
Incoming in the roundup video, but this card games around 85C, slightly higher than the Nitro+ by a couple degrees. The fans are barely spinning though, so you could trade heat for noise. The temps are well within safety spec for the chip so you don't really need to.
@@TechPowerUp Thank you :) I've got one of these on the way, good to know temps are fine - gonna adjust the fan curve I think, trade fan noise for temps
The 7800xt seems to go on sale much more frequently than the 7900gre. So I'd go with that if you can find one of those sales. But at MSRP it's definitely the 7900gre
I went from 1650 super to rx 7900 gre pulse and I love it, and I love that it came with a gpu bracket support. I was thinking between gigabyte gaming oc or this but im glad i went with the pulse lol
I got the Sapphire RX 7900 GRE Pure and during benching the gpu doesnt go over 53 celsius on the core and 73 celsius on the hotspot. During gaming I havent passed 66 celsius on the core and 82 celsius on the hotspot. Got my clock @ 2,780Mhz (undervolt at 0.940) and unfortunately I can't overclock my memory past 2400Mhz. Nevertheless this card is a beast for it's price.
Thank you for the video but 6950 XT RDNA3 refresh needs to be compared with RX 6950XT RDNA2, not fair the old one exact settings not present, can you buy new RTX 2060? or even new RTX 3090/Ti cards are not available anymore in a lot of places... so or we test new cards versus available new cards on the market or we compare also with former gpus (not former name gpus only). Average results are good but some extrem cases on settings stressing hw stock setup are welcome, there are lots of settings and resolution scenarios where RTX 3090 24GB is faster and cheaper used than 4070ti and RX 7900GRE or any 16gb vram current gen gpus.... GTA V 8K rendering ultra all need little more than 24GB vram, good luck playing with 12GB or 16gb smoothly, but other games PS5 poted or newest will seem slide show vs >30 or >60 FPS smooth...
Its on strange place in market, that's not big difference against 7800XT that's cheaper and cant competing with 4070 super because of Nvidia's technologies. need to be more cheaper. My Choice: 7800XT Or 4070 Ti Super ( yes, its more expensive but it provides better value on the market)
In fact it beats the 4070 Super in many contexts, and out performs the 7800 XT by 10% and more. It also is equal to, or close to the 4070 ti Super in some use cases. So no, not a single credible reviewer is saying that the 4070 ti Super 'provides better value on the market,' lol. the Did you just completely ignore the video, which absolutely proves you wrong, or you decided to make things up anyway?
@@ObakuZenCenter Yes , in raw performance this is a good card but you ignore what i said, i talk about technologies like DLSS and frame generation on nvidia gpus.(its better than amd's FSR) But if we compare in raw perfomance so for 7900 GRE you pay 10% more price with 10% perfomance increase compare to 7800XT and its not bad but not that valuable.. This 50 dollars you can use in other parts like increasing ssd storage or maybe better RAM. So if i buy amd in this price category i will choice 7800XT. In Nvidias side i would buy 4070 ti super. Yes is way higher in price but its cheap ultimate experience from nvidias gpus ( compare to 4080 and 4090). 4070 Super not that bad , but 12 gb vram.. doesn't give hope for the future, but 3080 10GB is still Rockin, so 4070 will also be afloat for at least 2-3 years at 1440p. in conclusion, our choice depends on or priorities and what the size of your wallet is.
Yup, the price difference isn’t enough to make amd a clear winner. When the 7800xt was $100 less than the 4070, there was a stronger case but even the 4070 is now as low as $520 so price isn’t as enticing a factor and unless the 7900gre slots in at $500 and 7800xt drops, it isn’t enough to make me want to pick it. Plus the model I want which is the nitro plus costs the same as a 4070 super anyway so value is no longer a determining factor
@ttf2 nahhh.. you can simply undervolt the card and you'll be fine.. but how about that 12GB vram on 4070 super? we all know games are becoming more and more vram hungry. Can you do something about that lack of vram when it becomes an issue? For a $600 card with only 12GB vram eww...
@@otakuchan3173 ofc AMD fanboys always brags about extra vram on their slower cards when vram isnt everything lol and also AMD only plays and offer more Vram and cheaper price because thats the only thing they'll good at unlike Nvidia whos vram is most useful not just for gaming but for ai workload and other most productivity stuff too thats why theyre being stingy with vram
@ttf2 tbh if youre paying 600 bucks you shouldn't be running out of ram at 4k. Unless you do work dont talk about workloads tbh. Nvidia and AMD have to do better generally, but for most gamers AMD is in a better spot currently. (and certain AI workloads amd is powerful in)
I just bought one. Manufacturing quality of the sapphire pulse is very low. First time I see such a poor quality in 20 years. Cooling system is very big and noisy. Dissipator is bended...I think this is the last time I go for Sapphire and AMD...
nice we now have a 3090 class card for 550 :)

if amd start charging with RT in mind they will wipe the floor
was going to buy a used 3090 for 750usd but then decided to buy Sapphire Radeon RX 7900 GRE NEW for almost the same price
3090 used for 750 is a terrible deal in the first place
Can't decide between 7800xt Asus tuf and the 7900gre sapphire pure.....

@@leftyfourguns got the 7900 GRE Pure for 660€.
Easy choice go for the 7900 GRE.
I take 2 days ago rx 7900 gre openbox only 12$ more than to same model of rx 7800 xt
I went from 1650 super to rx 7900 gre pulse and I love it, and I love that it came with a gpu bracket support. I was thinking between gigabyte gaming oc or this but im glad i went with the pulse lol
would like to see the entire 7900 GRE market. And in addition to GPU temperatures, also look at HOTSPOT and memory (and under overclocking)

better buy than the 4070 super.. $50 cheaper, much faster in raster while having 4GB more vram
2% to be exact... much faster looks differently 😁119.7 x 118.4 , iam sure you will notice the difference
and more power hog ? no thanks lol
