Got myself a red devil xtx limited. Love the card. For the price and performance you get out of this thing, especially when you undervolt it is amazing. Easy 280 1440p with competitive settings but textures and shaders set to high or ultra. Fortnite I can get an easy 144hz locked at 1080p with every setting maxed out(lumen nanite). Gpu temps avg around 48c, hotspot avg around 68 but with shoot up to 85 here and there, memory junction temps between 67c-71c
this is a very good video a 10 fps increase seems very good when playing at 4k and at max settings. so im gonna bookmark this video and comeback once im done with my setup
I have Nittro+. Not really sure why should i undervolt when at the smae time i have to increase PL which increases power draw significantly. Power draw goes up by 20% or more performance insignificantly
Just got my XFX 7900XTX. 3Ghz+ sustained in game with OC/UV and VRAM at 2.7Ghz. Hot spot stays in low to mid 70's. Impressive. Just an FYI though I had major issues trying to bench in Furmark, that thing is straight up broken for the 7900XTX as of right now. I couldn't get the max clock to boost anywhere near the target I set in Adrenaline without setting min to close to max, and that always ended up causing the VRAM to tank after 2-5 minutes. I thought I got a defective card until I did some benches in other apps/games. Leaving the min at default and setting max to 3150Mhz and VRAM to 2714Mhz, I'm getting 3Ghz sustained and 2.7Ghz VRAM with in-game benchmarks like Forza 5, CP77, and apps like Time Spy. Also in Halo Infinite while playing.
Great tutorial and similar to the way I overclock my 6900xt. Hopefully getting my xtx today. One thing I love about amd software is that you can set an overclock per game and I think more reviewers should take advantage of that when doing overclock comparisons because some games allow more overclocking than others and that's a benefit amd gave us
I think this xtx overheating took some time away from amd to create better drivers for the xtx and I expect the xtx to get some nice improvements in temps, clocks, and fps boosts in future drivers
I managed to run all of the 3DMark benchmark suites on a loop for hours just fine at 1000mV and max frequency of 3000Mhz, but drivers would crash with some games all the way up to 1070mV. Validating an undervolt profile tales a lot of time and effort, so be prepared!
I think an important thing to take into consideration when OCing these cards is how the board splits the power draw. An example would be that while i CAN get the GPU core stable with higher clocks, it takes more power and thus doesn't give the ram enough impacting its clocks and thus performance outright. The best i can achieve right now is 16576 with a 1040mv, GPU core 2700 and ram 2650 and i think thats because my board is limited to 380watts.
I was able to undervolt my XT to 1012mV. Increasing the power limit along with UV boosted my core clock from about 2500Mhz to about 2900Mhz. Overclocked my memory by +100. This Boosted fps in gears 5 by about 15% on minimums, and average fps. Cyberpunk fps went from about 120 on average (no rt) to about 137 at 1440p (a smidge higher than a 4080 stock). Superposition scores are 15230 on 1080p extreme, and 20182 in 4k optimized. Didn’t test it at stock before running super position, but my friend ran his at complete stock settings without PL increase and he got about 13300 on 1080p Extreme superposition. I think after these vram clock/idle power consumption issues get fixed, we’ll have more power available for core OC. It seems like memory, at all times is consuming it’s maximum, or near maximum power draw at all times, which is terribly inefficient.
Superposition seems to favour more memory speed, especially on higher resolutions I set mine to 500/2360Mhz (I didn't saw any difference with changing min freq, though I'm not sure what I'm doing... this new amd way of oc is confusing) at 1020mV (I'm basically trying to keep power usage around 300w) and memory at 2670Mhz, got 22999 at 4k optimized
Great video! I have a 7900XT, and it is fine. I actually have it OC and undervolted, (3210 core, 2648 Mem, 1075mV, +15 power limit, ramped up fan curve slightly). It is not over heating and I slowly climbed each value up or down appropriately until I lost some score in Port Royal, then backed off. I honestly expected to be capped at 2900-3000 like the XTX, but I went from a 13352 Port Royal Score to an even 14000 in about 5 steps. Other settings came easy, Core took a little longer. Before anyone says why the XT, in Canada, any GPU that out performs the 7900XT still costs more, even last gen, and you can't get the XTX here, always sold out. Cards below the 3080 have dropped below MSRP, but 3080 only hit MSRP then sold out. Above the 3080 they never reached back MSRP, stayed inflated even with discounts, and stock is very low too. For AMD, 6950 a tempting deal but the 7900XT still better. 6800 and 6900 some models on sale but out of stock, and ones in stock are still over priced. Below 6800 are all below MSRP now but not what I am looking for.
I'm in Canada too! ya the 7900 XT is still much cheaper than a 4080 which starts at $1699. The 7900 XT is $1222 that's a huge diff in price. BTW great results on your OC/UV.
Same in UK. I got the XT as well as it was in stock and at MSRP, where cheapest XTX sku was 50 above MSRP and UK only got a few of the cheap sku, and are not getting more of that sku so actually 150-350 more. However all xtx sku's went out of stock within an hour. The cheap 4080s sku's are in stock but cost 300-350 pounds more than XT. I did the price/fps and XT actually came out ahead of 4080 in games in 1440p. Heck on ebay the 3090ti costs 100 more for a used card (with 30+ bids on it) The XT shits all over the 3090Ti in performance, is new, has warrenty, more efficent, smaller, dual 8 pins.
This is how all high end GPUs work....More cores = lower clocks....Therefore, because there are more cores, they don't have to work as hard to get the same performance uplift as a card with fewer cores. So your XT can reach 3000+ MHz core, but an XTX will provide the same factor performance uplift at around 2700 MHz, because it has more cores.
I just installed my new XFX RX 7900 XTX Black Edition and was following the instructions in this video when I noticed the VRAM clock speed was spiked to 2700MHz and was stuck there while this video was displayed on the screen (whether the video was playing or was paused). The total board power hovered right around 100 watts. I did not have any games loaded. When I switched to a browser tab with a different website displayed, the VRAM clock speed dropped to 909MHz and stayed there. The board power dropped and hovered around 70 watts. As soon as I switched back to this browser tab, the VRAM timing and board power went back up to 2700MHz and around 100 watts, respectively. Prior to installing the latest Adrenaline software for the XTX, I used the AMD Cleanup Utility to remove the previously installed software. I also blocked Windows from installing its own driver. Prior to the RX 7900 XTX, I had an XFX RX 7900 XT installed and had the exact same problem. I returned the RX 7900 XT thinking it to be defective. I read there are quite a few people that have this problem with the 7000 series graphics card, but no one knows what causes it or how to fix the issue. Prior to the RX 7900 XT, I had an XFX RX 6750 XT installed and never had this problem. The problem is not specific just to the XFX brand, as the problem has been reported for 7000 series cards from every manufacturer. The monitor I am using is a Samsung 85" 4K QLED HDTV at 120Hz. There are no additional issues when I run a stress test. Anyone have any idea what causes this or have you heard any kind of fix? Should I try running DDU? I'm at a loss.
Undervolting amd gpus shifts the FREQ curve so lets ssay it does 1150mv for 2800mhz, if you put it to 1050mv it will now use that for 2800mhz, then it can use 1150mv for higher freq. But their is a certain point of voltage that actually uses less than the 1150mv. Like with my 6700xt the max voltage hardware limit is 1225mv but the software limit is 1200mv so i slide my undervolt to 1175mv and you wont see any issues. But also that might be wrong because I went all the way down to 1000mv and it still said 1.2v
I think Min Frequency can only hurt performance if clocks are unrealistic, which might happen depending on the game and what kind of load it makes. I really don't understand why AMD has that slider in RDNA 2 and 3
it helps to stabilize the voltage the difference between max and min should be at least 500mhz the guy in this video will definitely have performance drops.
@@TheZutox I don't think slider for power limit goes that far in the minus. But you can lower the voltage to really low, like 900 mV and find stable frequency, like 2300 MHz and it should consume 200-250W. And with that method you should lose like ~3%, really nothing noticeable.
So I just got my RX 7900 XTX and although I haven't done any overclocks or under volts my numbers a WAAAAAY off from yours. For example: GPU Tuning Clock is 2540 MHz, Voltage is 943 mV, VRAM Clock Speed is 2487 MHz, Fan Tuning Fan Speed is 1765 RPM, Junction Temp 83 C, Power Tuning shows Total Board Power of 403 W. I don't understand???? Any ideas??? EDIT: Nevermind, I had MSFS downloading some updates in the background. WOW, I can't believe it made THAT much difference!!!!!!!!!! Wasn't even PLAYING, was just sitting there!!!!! WOW!!!!
Fantastic video, nice and easy! Subscribed for more future helpful content, thanks again. I have the 7900 XTX TUF OC and I was able to get 500/3000, 2714 VRAM /w Fast timings @ 1050mV and +15% PL and I was beating a 4090 in certain games and beating a 4080 in every other title, so I'm definitely happy with the purchase.
Make sure for the love of everything graphics card you do the fan tuning and put it at least 70%! Do not forget fan tuning or your card will get so hot as stock settings it’s only 46% fan speed!
@jstahliv83 on a reference card? Mines a nitro and i have lots of case fans so cooling isnt an issue. Also in benchmarks it'll get hot but drop in games.
Thanks very much for this nice and simple guide! My clock speed when I enabled GPU tuning was set to 3070, I believe that was stock for the MSI Gaming Trio 7900 XTX I thought it was a bit high at first compared to yours in the video but I just left it as is. My power limit settings as well only went up to +8 o.O
Ok, so I have a reference model. It seems that I cannot go any lower than 1125 mv for voltage. And if I put my max clock up any higher than 2500 mhz, I get a crazy delta temp spike. Straying steadily into 100 degrees. With the 2500 mhz cap, I am quite damn stable. At default, I am stable still. It's not like I am getting the infamous 110-degree bump from the get go. But basically, going over 350W power draw outright derails my temps. Also, to put things into perspective, I have a 750W gold PSU, a Ryzen 9 3900X and 32 gigs of RAM at 3600 mhz. Did I hit the absolute short end of the stick in the silicon lottery? Or is this card no good? Another thing I am really and truly wondering: Despite my PSU being seemingly enough, would an upgrade possibly make a difference? Well, I kind of guess it shouldn't be the problem, but is it possible that the CPU is an issue here? I would appreciate some input a lot. It's not like I am not alright at 2500, but it insanely bugs me that I cannot come close to any of those nice overclocks I am seeing everywhere.
With your easy OC I got about 10% higher score. But my junction temp was always near 110º, but never downthrottling (damn cooler stuck at 96%). That said, my case is flipped as to put the gpu in vertical, otherwise there is throttling XD
One thing I do know for sure you can't just put a bunch of power on it and hope it's going to work because that actually will make it worse not better I saw that live on the stream well it wasn't actually like I saw it but the after effect when you uploaded it.
Well first of all I tried it and my game was running at 165 frames and only using 50 percent usage which is good and temps were low but why did my game crash everytime?
When I run stock I hit 100-102C junction temp. With a similar OC to yours I hit 110C on junction temp. I have a reference XTX, 5900X, X570, 64 GB RAM, running on a 4k 120hz single monitor setup. Good airflow, all air cooled. Have you had issues with your board hitting temps like that? I'm reading that many folks have but watching your stats during Port Royal and playing games I saw it say under 90 the whole time.
Many ppl with reference cooler report the same issue. It's poor quality control, the part where cooler is touching the GPU chip is not flat enough, which sucks. That is why I gave up on buying the reference model. Sapphire Nitro looks sweet tho.
110c junction temp on ref card sounds like you have the heating issue some of the ref cards have. An easy way to test this is to turn your pc upside down and run, if you get better temps then you have the steam issue and should return the card. My reference 7900xtx runs at 89c° hotspot, furmark 4k stresstest with an oc of 3.3ghz core and 2.8ghz vrm.
@@jewelersofwhale Upside down didn't fix it. Tried everything, ended up buying an XFX card which fixed it. But I still had stability issues in certain games and ultimately switched back to Nvidia. No issues since.
Lo and behond Dee Batch with custom OC profile to the rescue. I managed to accidentally download Adrenaline so figured I may as well try it out. Some features seem flakey (the custom fan profile does nothing) but as long as I can OC it shouldn't make any difference whether I use this or Afterburner.
Will the ryzen 5 7600x bottleneck the XFX 7900xtx? I’m using an asrock x670e steel legend motherboard + 64gb of teamgroup t-force ddr5 6400… I’m currently building it all. Is the ryzen 5 7600x good enough to handle this gpu for gaming only?
DEE BATCH, can you p[lease tell me how you manage to always get every new generation of graphics card (the latest and greatest) right at launch?? I remember in an old RDX podcast episode that you said you were the king of the refresh page key or something along those lines lol. Like how often do you refresh the page? What's your methodology lol? Thanks in advance and God bless buddy
at the 4:40 mark when you talk about undervolting and you see the clock runs at 2900 (lock it in).. How do you know it runs at that? stress testing before you lock it in?
@DeeBatch Hey Dee - I need you help :) I have the possibility to buy the following GPUs: Sapphire PULSE AMD RADEON RX7900 XTX for 1052.65 or Sapphire NITRO+ AMD RADEON RX 7900 XT for 923.65 I want 4k/stable 60 frames on the highest settings. Which one would you recommend for me?
What’s the power draw looking like with your OC settings applied? I haven’t received my card yet but when I do ideally I want to try use less power than stock settings but achieve slightly better performance whilst lowering the overall power consumption.
at times 390-410w(at load)Aftermarket cards will draw more. To get perf with less wat is possible of course. I just took clocks above stock. So it draws more power.
@@jamie56k The best results are gained by tweaking your GPU by yourself, every silicon is different in power characteristics and clocks. Set your goal of power consumption and reduce the GPU voltage until it's not stable. Then overclock the memory and test until stops scaling in benchmarks, that's very important because you can get worse performance when memory clocks are too high. Lastly you can finally tune gpu clockspeeds max clocks first, and be aware of clock stretching, given that you want to reduce power, increasing clockspeeds may be detrimental of performance.
Humm, trying to, but does not matter what seeting I change in tunning, when I press apply changes he just automatically resets to default value. Is there a need to change or give permission on the adrenaline driver's before coming to this steps you explained?
No, they can draw more. It just stock PCIe specs they can pull more. some of the 12vhpwr cables only use 2 plugs on PSUs. My OC and UV are good. I got a very good chip.
i tried this and played forza horizon 5 but my game crashed pretty instantly. my specs: ASRock Z790 Pro RS RX 7900 xtx hellhound i5-13600k rm850e corsair vengeance 5600MHz 2x16GB cl36 i use lian li strimer plus v2 for my gpu and mobo if that changed anything.
i've got an msi gaming trio 7900xtx is there any reason why the power limits goes up to 8%+ at max and not 15%?, might be because of the psu being a 750w?
Its all MSI will allow. Im not sure why as with 3 8pin the card should comfortably draw above 400watts, seems to be limited to 380watts, but its how they are limiting the card and it hurts its OCs massively.
Why does APPLY SETTINGS return my values to default immediately :((( IT won't let me. and i don't have MSI afterburner installed, only rivatuner statistics serv
Games won't be stable at 1050 for 99% of users. A benchmark isn't enough. Some games might be fine, but you'll run into a game that crashes your gpu sooner or later. 1090 is lucky, 1120 is normal.

Easy way to overclock your new 7900 XTX. Did you get the card? What are your thoughts on the price? Any questions and comments leave them down below.
Please, tell us - 2800+ RPM - how loud is it?
@@TheImpartialTruth55 not too bad tbh
Got myself a red devil xtx limited. Love the card. For the price and performance you get out of this thing, especially when you undervolt it is amazing. Easy 280 1440p with competitive settings but textures and shaders set to high or ultra. Fortnite I can get an easy 144hz locked at 1080p with every setting maxed out(lumen nanite). Gpu temps avg around 48c, hotspot avg around 68 but with shoot up to 85 here and there, memory junction temps between 67c-71c
this is a very good video a 10 fps increase seems very good when playing at 4k and at max settings. so im gonna bookmark this video and comeback once im done with my setup
I have Nittro+. Not really sure why should i undervolt when at the smae time i have to increase PL which increases power draw significantly. Power draw goes up by 20% or more performance insignificantly

Glad I could help.
thanks for sharing this. pushed my Steel Nomad score from about 67 fps up to mid 70s and continuing to fine tune to get higher.

I don't understand???? Any ideas??? EDIT: Nevermind, I had MSFS downloading some updates in the background. WOW, I can't believe it made THAT much difference!!!!!!!!!! Wasn't even PLAYING, was just sitting there!!!!! WOW!!!!
just tried, rise up my 7900xtx on 3d marks from 28200 to 30200
Is this the reference rx 7900 xtx or an AIB?
Fantastic video, nice and easy! Subscribed for more future helpful content, thanks again.
I have the 7900 XTX TUF OC and I was able to get
500/3000, 2714 VRAM /w Fast timings @ 1050mV and +15% PL and I was beating a 4090 in certain games and beating a 4080 in every other title, so I'm definitely happy with the purchase.
glad I could help. Thanks for the sub and the fantastic results you got.
what I experienced is that in benchmarks I could go as low as 1020mv. but cyberpunk or mw2 for example would crash unless I go up to 1110mv :P
Would love to see how your OC performs in a 4k Callisto Protocol benchmark. :)
The results were in the video here th-cam.com/video/pZThC3ZHwuE/w-d-xo.html&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE&t=344
Make sure for the love of everything graphics card you do the fan tuning and put it at least 70%! Do not forget fan tuning or your card will get so hot as stock settings it’s only 46% fan speed!
40-55% is plenty
@@I.AMWallzy No way, it was putting my juntion temp to 92-93c, I put to 70 and it runs 8 degrees cooler.
@jstahliv83 on a reference card?
Mines a nitro and i have lots of case fans so cooling isnt an issue. Also in benchmarks it'll get hot but drop in games.
Thanks very much for this nice and simple guide!
My clock speed when I enabled GPU tuning was set to 3070, I believe that was stock for the MSI Gaming Trio 7900 XTX
I thought it was a bit high at first compared to yours in the video but I just left it as is.
My power limit settings as well only went up to +8 o.O
Ok, so I have a reference model. It seems that I cannot go any lower than 1125 mv for voltage. And if I put my max clock up any higher than 2500 mhz, I get a crazy delta temp spike. Straying steadily into 100 degrees. With the 2500 mhz cap, I am quite damn stable. At default, I am stable still. It's not like I am getting the infamous 110-degree bump from the get go. But basically, going over 350W power draw outright derails my temps.
Also, to put things into perspective, I have a 750W gold PSU, a Ryzen 9 3900X and 32 gigs of RAM at 3600 mhz.
Did I hit the absolute short end of the stick in the silicon lottery? Or is this card no good? Another thing I am really and truly wondering: Despite my PSU being seemingly enough, would an upgrade possibly make a difference? Well, I kind of guess it shouldn't be the problem, but is it possible that the CPU is an issue here?
I would appreciate some input a lot. It's not like I am not alright at 2500, but it insanely bugs me that I cannot come close to any of those nice overclocks I am seeing everywhere.
Dee I love you dude! Lol I don't agree with everything you say, but you've always been a solid/real dude
Thanks bro
Well Done Sir! 🔥🙏
With your easy OC I got about 10% higher score. But my junction temp was always near 110º, but never downthrottling (damn cooler stuck at 96%). That said, my case is flipped as to put the gpu in vertical, otherwise there is throttling XD
Can I do the same only for video editing in Davinci resolve?
If i use your settings at 2:00, I will both gain better performance AND lower my temps?
Thnks Dee 👋
Appreciate the tips. But why doesmt adrenaline save the tunning
Thanks man, my score went from 13677 to 15088 my voltage was only stable at 1050 any lower than that and the benchmark crashed
still good results.
One thing I do know for sure you can't just put a bunch of power on it and hope it's going to work because that actually will make it worse not better I saw that live on the stream well it wasn't actually like I saw it but the after effect when you uploaded it.
Ya not the way to do it.
My cpu frequency is all over the place with constant dips, I also have a 5950x, what have you done with yours?
does fast timing really make that much difference, i turned it on and i lost fps in certain games?
Well first of all I tried it and my game was running at 165 frames and only using 50 percent usage which is good and temps were low but why did my game crash everytime?
Why do you raise your minimum frequency so high? Doesn't that increase idle power draw? Thanks for the useful video!
MY oc I only use for gaming.
When I run stock I hit 100-102C junction temp. With a similar OC to yours I hit 110C on junction temp. I have a reference XTX, 5900X, X570, 64 GB RAM, running on a 4k 120hz single monitor setup. Good airflow, all air cooled. Have you had issues with your board hitting temps like that? I'm reading that many folks have but watching your stats during Port Royal and playing games I saw it say under 90 the whole time.
depends on the chip. Each chip is different. lower your clocks put fans to maybe start at 50%.
Many ppl with reference cooler report the same issue. It's poor quality control, the part where cooler is touching the GPU chip is not flat enough, which sucks. That is why I gave up on buying the reference model. Sapphire Nitro looks sweet tho.
110c junction temp on ref card sounds like you have the heating issue some of the ref cards have. An easy way to test this is to turn your pc upside down and run, if you get better temps then you have the steam issue and should return the card.
My reference 7900xtx runs at 89c° hotspot, furmark 4k stresstest with an oc of 3.3ghz core and 2.8ghz vrm.
@@jewelersofwhale Upside down didn't fix it. Tried everything, ended up buying an XFX card which fixed it. But I still had stability issues in certain games and ultimately switched back to Nvidia. No issues since.
Lo and behond Dee Batch with custom OC profile to the rescue.
I managed to accidentally download Adrenaline so figured I may as well try it out. Some features seem flakey (the custom fan profile does nothing) but as long as I can OC it shouldn't make any difference whether I use this or Afterburner.
lol glad I could help man.
Will the ryzen 5 7600x bottleneck the XFX 7900xtx? I’m using an asrock x670e steel legend motherboard + 64gb of teamgroup t-force ddr5 6400… I’m currently building it all. Is the ryzen 5 7600x good enough to handle this gpu for gaming only?
naw you be fine
DEE BATCH, can you p[lease tell me how you manage to always get every new generation of graphics card (the latest and greatest) right at launch?? I remember in an old RDX podcast episode that you said you were the king of the refresh page key or something along those lines lol. Like how often do you refresh the page? What's your methodology lol? Thanks in advance and God bless buddy
sheer will and determination.
at the 4:40 mark when you talk about undervolting and you see the clock runs at 2900 (lock it in).. How do you know it runs at that? stress testing before you lock it in?
yes use the metrics to see if stable
DEE BATCH, how much perf are you missing, if you don't increase the power limit at all (otherwise the same)?
without increase in power limit you probably lose some performance and gain some electricity back.
JUST got mine and it reached 3034. I am not even going to tes it, nope, nope, not risking it, i am undervolting it right away.
@DeeBatch
Hey Dee - I need you help :)
I have the possibility to buy the following GPUs:
Sapphire PULSE AMD RADEON RX7900 XTX for 1052.65
or
Sapphire NITRO+ AMD RADEON RX 7900 XT for 923.65
I want 4k/stable 60 frames on the highest settings.
Which one would you recommend for me?
7900XTX one
@@DeeBatch thanks!
What’s the power draw looking like with your OC settings applied? I haven’t received my card yet but when I do ideally I want to try use less power than stock settings but achieve slightly better performance whilst lowering the overall power consumption.
at times 390-410w(at load)Aftermarket cards will draw more. To get perf with less wat is possible of course. I just took clocks above stock. So it draws more power.
ancient benchmarks made a video on underclocking and undervolting go check it out, thats the answer you´re looking for.
sorry I meant Ancient Gameplays youtube channel.
@@sergioramos1287 I did see that but he didn’t show much. Waiting for a tutorial
@@jamie56k The best results are gained by tweaking your GPU by yourself, every silicon is different in power characteristics and clocks. Set your goal of power consumption and reduce the GPU voltage until it's not stable. Then overclock the memory and test until stops scaling in benchmarks, that's very important because you can get worse performance when memory clocks are too high. Lastly you can finally tune gpu clockspeeds max clocks first, and be aware of clock stretching, given that you want to reduce power, increasing clockspeeds may be detrimental of performance.
Good video! How can I undervolt the xtx so that it consumes less than 300 watts?
try 1040Mv put min clock to 2600 max to 2700
@@DeeBatch
Nice. But is it posible to limit this card to max 200W? And what is RT performance difference when we set power limit to 200W?
@@TheZutox you could but why? just get a 7900 xt at that point cause perfomance is going to be lower.
😂😂😂
What should my sapphire pulse setting be any less min max frequency
Humm, trying to, but does not matter what seeting I change in tunning, when I press apply changes he just automatically resets to default value. Is there a need to change or give permission on the adrenaline driver's before coming to this steps you explained?
no try a fresh install of AMD drivers
How are you able to get over 400 watts tdp off this reference model? isn't 2x8+PCIE 375w max?
No, they can draw more. It just stock PCIe specs they can pull more. some of the 12vhpwr cables only use 2 plugs on PSUs. My OC and UV are good. I got a very good chip.
can you overclock a rx 7900 xtx hellhound?
How’s that UV working in game?
OK BUT I use my 4090 mostly
For me work just fine, but when i restart my pc all settings reset🤔
i tried this and played forza horizon 5 but my game crashed pretty instantly.
my specs:
ASRock Z790 Pro RS
RX 7900 xtx hellhound
i5-13600k
rm850e
corsair vengeance 5600MHz 2x16GB cl36
i use lian li strimer plus v2 for my gpu and mobo if that changed anything.
then you have to slowly back off the UV and OC till it's stable in Forza.
@@DeeBatch what is the UV and OC? I’m new to pcs so I don’t know a lot
@@williamknows3908 UV=Undervolt. OC = Overclock. so say you but clocks atn1900 try 1875MHz etc
@@DeeBatch okay so what would you recommend i pit everything else on? Volt and power usage memory etc?
@@williamknows3908 full power + 15 UV 1090 , clock 2650-2700 mem adjust and test
So this is for the Sapphire 7900 XTX reference card?
any 7000 series GPU
i've got an msi gaming trio 7900xtx is there any reason why the power limits goes up to 8%+ at max and not 15%?, might be because of the psu being a 750w?
Its all MSI will allow. Im not sure why as with 3 8pin the card should comfortably draw above 400watts, seems to be limited to 380watts, but its how they are limiting the card and it hurts its OCs massively.
Same. I have that same card as well.
I use a 1000W power supply and I as well only have +8% as the max power limit.
Do you prefer 7900xtx to the 4090
No
Clicked the overclock GPU option on mine (7900 XTX) and it went to 3095Mhz
Why does APPLY SETTINGS return my values to default immediately :((( IT won't let me. and i don't have MSI afterburner installed, only rivatuner statistics serv
Not sure uninstall then redo installation of drivers.
I thought raising the min frequency on rdna 3 was a no mo
should i undervolt my 7900xtx for lower temps?
yes even if just a little
@@DeeBatch thanks man my temps are now between 55 to 65c ...earlier it was over 80c
Hey how to you undervolt the card to draw less powder and save some watts?
take it down to about 950MV and lower clocks
@@DeeBatch is there any videos on this? How much roughly Watss could you save? Im worried my psu wont be able to handle it and will have to send back
Games won't be stable at 1050 for 99% of users. A benchmark isn't enough. Some games might be fine, but you'll run into a game that crashes your gpu sooner or later. 1090 is lucky, 1120 is normal.
I agree my sample is golden
i agree with you.

Uff, your junc temp is so low. Mine is hitting 103c while using 90% util
gpu fan at 2820 rpm man, u can definetly heard that
ya th was for benches I leave normal curve on otherwise. Was not as loud as you would think though.
