Sapphire 11322-01-40G Nitro+ AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX Vapor-X Gaming Graphics Card with 24GB GDDR6, AMD RDNA 3

Ive been using 90% Nvidia gpu's for the better of 35 yrs , but Ive had it with Nvidia's ceo and raping its customers . Ive decided AMD is looking good these days and Ive been happy since early Ryzen and SUPER happy with my 5900X rig for the last 18/24+ months that Ive decided to switch to an AMD gpu . ~ Basically with the three ultrawide screens (7680x1440) I was going over the 12gi limit on my Evga 3080 FTW Ultra 12gig . I was not going over the 12 gig by much (so I thought, and proved otherwise) , but knew I was restricting myself visually , in game FPS , etc . Likely any future usage might/WOULD be problematic . ~ Hence the 7900xtx Nitro , going by some other reviews , the xtx was a no brainer and the Nitro was told , built well , ran cool and quite was an added plus and a must in all respects . ~ To make a long story short .... The AMD 3 screen setup was a bit to get used to vs Nvidias 3 screen setup and Iam still learning on tweaking the screens to my liking , but I expected a bit of learning curve . ~ Ok , day one just try the card out ..... NICE! ....running quite , cool and wonderful on a few of my AAA games thus far and definitely going over that NVidia 12gig limit to a 17/18+ gig average of video memory with the XTX . ~ I think (I know) I made the right choice to switch and the correct brand and version of the 7900XTX . ****** I must note though , the first 7900xtx Nitro was DOA (my first ever gpu doa over all these yrs ) I had Amazon send me another (kinda a pain as the changed how this used to be done) , but Got the new card the next day (thanks Amazon) , and the second Nitro fired up right away and in 15 minutes was up and running some test/games/etc. ~ *** Wish these cards had a 3 yr warranty instead of 2 , but I opted for the 4 yr after market warranty as I know 2 yrs is not enough and Ive learned not to always count on some companies on rma's being problem free , such as Evga's used to be all these years . Right now Iam very happy thus far even it only being day two of usage . ~ If anything major changes I will update . Wallet is definitely abit lighter , but I know its worth it for me and I should be more than ready for yrs to come . **** SYSTEM : Ryzen 5900x (on mild custom water loop), MSI Mag X570s , 7900xtx Nitro+ , Gskill 3600/18/ 2x32gig , Multiple Nvme/Sata SSD's , Creative AE5+ s/card , 3x 34" LG Ultrawides (in AMD EyeInfinity ) . Corsair 780T case . EDIT UPDATE : Ive now had the gpu for two months now and Iam still happy with my decision to sell my Evga RTX 3080 FTW3 Ultra 12gig and replace it with this 7900xtx . ~ Ive had a few problems , but nothing major or even closed to major . ~ Part of the problem was learning the best settings for the 3 Ultrawide's as one , and a few other settings that were new/different from my past Nvidia settings . ~ At this time all problems have been resolved/learned and all games have been rock solid since this review update . ~ Gpu does run nice and cool and quite (set at 50/55% fan at around 60 degree *c) and running at 7680x 1080p/1440p with all games running at its native rez with 120-160 fps on average . At this time I have ZERO regrets switching to an AMD gpu and happy as heck that I should be good for some time to come (including amount of gpu memory) ! *UPDATE 9/9/23 Card is still running great , no problems with latest driver update(s) , some games look even better at default resoltion . Latest installed 23.102 . ~ Not sure if I need update 23.11.1 . *UPDATE : 02/27/2024 Ok , eight months later with my Sapphire Nitro+ 7900xtx and ........ STILL happy as heck with my gpu , and its been running extremely well , cool and quite as usual with all 3 screens for gaming. ~ No problems to speak of , AMD drivers have been pretty good and solid over the months. ~ HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY ! **** SYSTEM : Ryzen 5900x (cpu on mild custom water loop w/ 2x rads), MSI Mag Wifi x570s , 7900xtx Nitro+ (stock/oc bios) , Gskill 3600/18/ 2x32gig , Multiple Nvme/Sata SSD's , Creative AE5+ s/card , 34" LG Ultrawide's (in AMD EyeInfinity 7860x1080/1440p ) . Corsair 780T case . ***** (UPDATE : 8/9/24 , 14 M0NTHS later w 7900xtx) Well its 14 months later already with my beautiful Sapphire Nitro+ .... Still running the same 5900x system as previously mentioned , but now running the "native" resolution of 10320 x 1440 in EyeInfinity vs my past 7680 x1440 (due to slight monitor change) . Bottom line .....STILL super happy with my Nitro+ 7900xtx .. Thx to AMD and driver updates , this card still handling all my gaming withOUT being self overclocked as of yet. ~ Solid gaming , drivers have been good , temps are xint , all is GREAT in my long time gaming experience (35+yrs) . Have no intentions of changing my gpu , but ..... maybe to AMD 7 or 9 series 7900x3d or 9000 ? ; but still in no hurry or need atm . Bottom line , lam VERY HAPPY still with the Sapphire 7900xtx Nitro+ (solid card , temps cool , very quite = LUV)\ ***IMPORTANT UPDATE : I forgot to mention , I have upgraded the PSU for this card about 4 months back (about a year in on owning this gpu) from my Evga G3 850 watt , to a Seasonic Vertex 1200 watt ; this due to using a 10300x1400 resolution I now use that was causing minor game blick outs . Since the PSU change all is extremely well again in all pc work including heavy gaming . ` ***UPDATE 2/1/2025 My beautiful 7900xtx Nitro+ is STILL doing fantastic and still at native 10300 x1440p (no upscaling or bs fake frames here ) while in AMD EyeInfinity ( 3 screens as one). ~ Card runs everything nicely and STILL not running it overclocked yet . ~ Stable , problem free , quite and runs nice cool and quite (very quite ) .... GOD I really luv this card , and it has been a good investment even at 1k and still NO need to upgrade after 20+ months ~and this is still on my Ryzen 5900x (yes oc'd )/MSI 570x as mentioned in earlier review . ~ Thank You AMD ,Sapphire and Amazon !!! (I'll try and send pic's of setup time permitting) .

I recently upgraded my Asus Strix 1070 to the Sapphire Nitro+ AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, and it has completely changed my gaming experience (as to be expected). This monster of a GPU is a game-changer for anyone serious about gaming and graphics performance without shelling out for a 4090 and with the plus of no potential melting cords. Pros: Cooling: The cooling system is really well done! I have not heard any coil whine even playing Maxed Darktide (154 FPS) Design: The Nitro+ RX 7900 XTX boasts a sleek design. The metal shroud and backplate gives it a premium feel, and the customizable RGB lighting adds a touch of personalization to my rig. I don’t look at the lights so ehh. Performance: I will be using this for Video and Photo editing in the very near future. I will update my thoughts on that a bit later. I will include my Averages (These come from the AMD Adrenalin software) on games I play for reference. Everything is at 4k max settings (90% sure on all of them) Warhammer Total War 3: 56.5 FPS (This feels a little low for how buttery smooth it is) Warhammer 40k Darktide: 154 FPS State of Decay 2: 541 FPS (LOL this maybe off also) Deep Rock Galactic: 111 FPS League of Legends: 220 FPS Advanced Features: The inclusion of ray tracing and variable rate shading enhances the visual experience sure Nivida is supposed to be better but ehh not a ton of RT content out there yet and by the time there is in a few years I will get a new card. Cons: Power Requirements: This card requires larger power supply, I have a Gold 1k PSU that handles it and my 13900k just fine, so make sure your system can handle it. Higher Price Point: The premium features come at a higher price, making it more suitable for enthusiasts and serious gamers who prioritize performance. It might be overkill for users who don't engage in demanding gaming or content creation tasks. I got it on sale for 999.00 and was happy with the price to performance. I did not see the benefits of the 4090 to the price points they were asking In conclusion, the Sapphire Nitro+ AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX sets an awesome price to performance for high-end gaming graphics cards without breaking the medium spender’s bank. I will update this review later if my sentiments change in the future either in a more positive light or if I find an issue.

I’ve been building PCs for over 30 years. For the past 20 year I’ve bought primarily NVIDIA GPUs and only owned three Radeon cards for personal builds. I’ve even recommended NVIDIA over Radeon for nearly 14 years. That is until I built a system with an RX 6950 XT in it about a year ago and that was the first Radeon card to make me regret buying an EVGA NVIDIA GPU. After testing that thing I was floored at the performance. Now I’ve recommended EVGA every time someone has ask my opinion for a build. And I’ve never regretted it. They were hands down the best third party GPU manufacturer on the market. But unfortunately they’ve decided to get out of the GPU market entirely. It’s a true loss for the industry but given NVIDIA’s decisions over the past two years I completely understand why they left. I wish to God they’d come back and make an AMD card but no such luck. Now before I get into talking about this card I want to explain that if you’re more concerned with Ray Tracing, which is only available in about 92 titles at the time of this review and takes way too many resources to run, you will likely be inclined to buy NVIDIA. You’d be right because DLSS is a fantastic bit of tech. But it’s practically required to run anything with RT on and you’re gonna pay a premium for it. That’s the way NVIDIA wants it. And keep in mind RT is likely something you won’t care about in the end if it tanks your FPS or giving ghosting with DLSS enabled. Secondly if you’re more concerned with performance per watt then again you’re gonna go Team Green. The 40 series is fantastic for power saving and still getting performance. However, if you’re like me you’re gonna want performance and high memory count, but you’re gonna want it for a more reasonable (still too high) price. Well Radeon has that in spades whether it’s a 6750 or a 7900. So for me, once buyers remorse finally got the best of me, I decided to drop my RTX 3080 and pick up an RX 7900 XTX. It was a choice between the Sapphire Nitro+ and the Powercolor Red Devil. Now I’ve used Powercolor before and they’ve always made fantastic cards. The Red Devil is no exception. But Sapphire has managed to make a GPU that can not only almost match for power but also beat it in cooling. So when I was looking at the hotspot temps having anything go about 90C doesn’t exactly sit well with me and based on my research there was definitely a 5-8 degree difference between the Red Devil and this. So Sapphire it is. And I don’t regret it one bit. This Card doesn’t have its logo all over it like it’s some kind of Nike shoe for one, but it’s also fairly simple and sleek. I highly recommend this to card to anyone looking to upgrade and with the recent price drops of the RX 7900 XT I’d say that should be a mighty fine buy as well. Hope this helps someone out there trying to decide what to buy or just between NVIDIA and AMD. Game on.

This product died after 6 months of using it. It only have 3 months warranty.

Its combination of advanced features, outstanding cooling, and competitive pricing make it a top choice for those looking to future-proof their setup.

Impressive powerhouse GPU, doesn't suck too much power, thermals are great with a proper fan curve. Turn off zero RPM, and save a profile, it likes to reset it on crashes. Zero RPM is great when not gaming, but heats up like a mother when gaming. Bad feature to have on by default, just saying... Paired a 5950x, when your BIOS settings, overclock, and Windows settings are optimized, and Windows is debloated properly the FPS in ultra/max settings in a huge amount of gaming in 4K is nuts. 144+ in a lot of games I play, certain games which aren't optimized for this GPU, or at all will dip naturally. You can't fix stupid unfortunately, I got this on sale and I gotta say I don't regret it. Easy to take apart and change thermal pads, and thermal paste. Thankfully my fans and vapor chambers are in perfect condition, I did have to switch to the secondary BIOS but it's only been perfect since. Please make sure you properly setup your GPU Support bracket, as if you squeeze against the fans it will severely cripple your thermal overhead. I accidentally put mine in a bad spot, I had no fan RPM (in hwinfo, amd settings, etc...) and my thermals were awful, since I fixed it I got an RPM readout and it works perfectly. Download Sapphire TRIXX to verify your fan health, you can even change the RGB color of the GPU with it. This thing is considered a 4090 competitor, and for a much more reasonable price. With driver updates it will only improve, if you see this on sale I'd highly recommend considering picking this up. It's dual bios also for your overclocking, and tuning pleasure.

This thing is a beast of a GPU. Not sure if mine had issues or I just had really bad luck with the AMD drivers. No issues in Warzone at all, it ran like a dream at crazy FPS. My PC crashed during other games and I kept getting driver timeout issues or other errors, black screens and total failures. I ended up returning it and getting a Nvidia GPU instead. Maybe you’ll have better luck because when it did work it was awesome.
