XFXSpeedster MERC310 AMD Radeon RX 7900XTX Black Gaming Graphics Card with 24GB GDDR6, AMD RDNA 3 RX-79XMERCB9

Bought this monster, coming from a 2080 which is a MASSIVE improvement.Card runs very cool at around 60° when playing 4k max/benchmarking and is pretty quiet.Inundervolted slightly and still get stock performance but with less power draw (no more than 360w) depending on game.I've tested a fair few games on 4K and it's insane how good this card is. Performance below:Dead space remake 4K max: 90-120 FPSTotal war warhammer 4K max: battle bench: 94 FPSFinal fantasy rebirth which has forced ray tracing (I believe) 4K max: 120 FPSIndiana jones and the great circle (also forced raytracing) 4K max: 90-110 FPSCOD B06 2K max AVG FPS: 190 (FSR enabled 240-290)Kingdomcome deliverance 1 4K max (updated for modern cards) 130FPSBlack myth wukong (only played 2K so far) max with RTS around 75FPS. (Thirsty game).Considering this card is 2 years old it's still an absolute beast for the price and the 24GB of ram is nice to have for future games.

Fast delivery and great card. Upgraded from a 1080 GTX. The difference is amazing! It's a hefty card, so make sure you use the support bracket, or a good PCI riser.

After the horrible 50 series Nvidia launch I decided to stick with AMD and went for the 24GB of VRAM monster. Brilliant card. 4k high fps and refresh rate on AAA games. Unreal.

Premium price for a non-premium experience TMI'll start this review with the following: My unit seems like it may be DEFECTIVE. This to me implies there's some serious QA issues, and for this price I think that's unacceptable. This is supposed to be the top tier of AMD's lineup but it really doesn't impress in terms of reliability. I had to spend over 8 hours cumulatively of my time, trying to debug the issue, and I have ended up not finding a solution. I have tried almost everything I could think of: removed half my RAM, reseated CPU, reseated GPU, tried different PSU and cables, tried different drivers, tried a fresh install of Windows and many other potential solutions - NOTHING resolved my problem.Looking at other reviews, it seems like people had similar experiences to me, and judging by the fact there are over 5% of negative reviews about similar problems, there's a 1 in 20 chance that your GPU may have issues or be defective - which is just insane for a product of this price tag.This review is purely my experience with my specific unit. Your experience may vary.Pros:+ Runs good in terms of performance (if it runs).+ The temperatures are impressive. From my testing my unit never exceeded 85C on the hotspot, and never exceeded 78C on the die/memory at full load.+ The fans on my unit were very quiet, even when ramped up high, or during normal use with the side panel off.+ The GPU is very well equipped in terms of raw specs. Plenty of VRAM and raw performance under the hood.+ The GPU is very well equipped with DP2.1.Cons:- Constantly crashes (BSODs, whole system freezes, soft driver crashes, game crashes). There has not been a single day without a crash that I've had this GPU.- Uses a tremendous amount of power on idle. On idle this GPU at worst has drawn 98W. I was able to reduce this number to 60W with a lot of tweaking in terms of monitor refresh rate and CRU parameters. This is something a normal user will not even bother doing, so this is just terrible UX.- Build quality seemed a bit underwhelming. The whole backplate is plastic, but has a metal-*ish* look to it. The card was a little flexible, but the included bracket made it quite stable. I can't imagine this plastic backplate helps temperatures in any way - so why include it in the first place?So far this experience has made me reconsider if I really need to upgrade. I will probably move back to my old and reliable GPU until maybe the new series of cards release, and hope that those are any better.

Best graphics card I've ever purchased. Looks great, performs great, not too loud, good value for money. Plays all my games at native 4k at 100+ FPS. Superb. No complaints at all. Highly recommended!!

powerful card everything works better than I expected, it should be added that at peak it can draw 460w+, this is information so that after purchase no one will be surprised

After delivery problems I finally got my GPU.Works great, No coil noise and installation was easy. Use the Z bracket to reduce vibrations and keeping it from sagging. I also bought a sag stand to just help with sagging for years to come. I highly recommend buying an extra sagging stand just to make it last for years.I switched from a GTX 1080 and now I have 10X the performance. On monster hunter wilds I was running 20fps and now I have 200+ with frame gen. Runs super smooth at 1080p. I would suggest also getting a 1000w PSUOn the picture the size comparison from my GTX 1080 to the 7900XTX. Great sellers as well helped me with the delivery issues.

Absolutely Love this card. Running beautifully utilizing the "unlocked " BIOS switch setting but no Manual Overclocks - This card absolutely delivers. To be fair - it is probably overkill for my needs as I play in 2560 x1440 @ up to 160Hz all the time as this is My favourite Monitor resolution - I play pretty much every game with Ultra+ Settings - Those in my library that support it that is.I have had no issues with Temperatures, drivers etc and absolutely recommend this GPU to anyone that is considering it. The extra Vram and super fast speeds etc all amount to My not needing to worry as to whether I can fully enjoy the games I Play and on the settings I choose.NOTE : this particular MERC 310 version of the GPU requires 3x 8pin connectors for power rather than the usual 2 x 8pin setup. I am Using 3x individual Splitter type cables (as that is what shipped with my PSU) but am only using one 8pin header off each cable as I am not a fan of splitting the power from one PSU connection.Great Job with this Product AMD ! Thumbs up all round !
