    One of the best things about the Sapphire card is the RGB will work with any MB, would be nice if all manufacturers made their GPU’s RGB work with any MB without having to install their software.

    Being able to attach case fans to it is a huge thing. it'll let the bottom half of the case run automatically to cool the card like the top half does to cool the CPU. I just don't know how many fans you can hook up to it though. I'm emailing Sapphire and waiting on their answer. Only thing irritating me was the first few emails they thought I was trying to replace the stock cooler and told me it will void my warranty. took 3 emails for them to figure out i want to know the specs for the fan out header on it. It's the weekend now so waiting for Monday for them to get back to me.
    They have been quick to respond to my questions though. a day or less for each reply. If I get an answer I'll post what I find out about the fan header. I've been wanting a fan out header for case fans for 20 years. All gpus should come with that by now.

    • @Jean-pi4qi
      @Jean-pi4qi 6 дней назад

      @JordanK T
      hanks for your answer, but in view of the leaks the new AMD cards will be positioned below the RX 7900xt and therefore also the XTX, so I'm not sure the price will be impacted.
      On the other hand, as for NVIDIA, with the RTX 5080 at €1400, this could well affect the prices but enough to make the wait interesting? We'll see tomorrow but I'm afraid prices won't be affected until early February, so it's going to be a long wait.
      What do you think?

    • @JordanK
      @JordanK  6 дней назад

      Prices will still go down because it will be "Last gen" and they'll eventually phase it out. I'm going to be using mine for the next few years, but I also bought it 2 years ago when it launched. If I was in your position now I would wait and see what the benchmarks are for the 9070 from AMD, but also the 5070 and 5080 from Nvidia. The XTX is on par with a 4080/ 4080 super so if the 5070 or 5070ti has the same performance it will also be cheaper because it's a 70sku.

And if you're wanting to game in 4K then get ready to pay for it. 1, the cost of going above 60Hz to a 4K 120 HZ monitor and 2. you'll have to start messing about with graphic settings to reach a decent frame rate for the 4K 120 Hz monitor.

      Yup. I have a 1440p 144hz ultrawide and I don't feel like getting a 4k one even as I own the card in the video. This beast runs everything at native res and max settings at the monitor's max refresh rate. Modded games with extremely heavy graphical mods are a joke now.
      I do wish it was an IPS monitor though, but it was out of my budget. Though the colors in this monitor still manage to look fantastic.

      For that price it's a literal steal, but I also went and looked at the listing and the seller isn't Amazon. It's a 3rd party company that only has 1 star reviews because people never got their product. If it looks too good to be true it probably is. That is 100% one of those times

    I currently have a ASUS TUF Gaming RTX 3060ti OC 8gb and have moved my radiator from a front mount to a top mount just to make room for the monster cards that are now in the market. I also have upgraded my PSU from a 750w to a 1300w. All of this in anticipation of upgrading my GPU and now I am at the point where i can but i haven't convinced myself to pull the trigger.
    This is the exact card I have had my eyes on but I keep talking myself out of it then back to it. Power consumption and overheating are little things that are in the back of my mind that are keeping me at bay. I don't overclock and I have a very similar case setup as you do... just a bit bigger case. My first rtx 3060ti had artifacts after 2hrs of use and I still have nightmares from that return process.
    Anyways Please Sell me on this Card! Tell me I just need to bite the damn bullet and get the sapphire RX 7900xtx. personally if I can get all high settings on the resident evil games Ill be happy... especially RE2 remake, that's the one that keeps telling me 8gb of vram just isn't enough.
    thanks in advance!

      ​@@JordanK It's here! They wasted no time sending it to me. I have it installed now and my computer did not explode so it's a win-win so far.
      Gonna pick your brain a little about it. For your PCIe cables did you give all 3 8 pin slots their own dedicated cable to the PSU or did you have to use a daisy chain? My PSU only gave me 2 PCIe cables so I have one that has it's own and the other two I had to use the daisy from one. I might have to order another depending on how good or bad it is to do that.

    • @Brioshi87
      @Brioshi87 Год назад

      Further research on my end I have come to the conclusion that its more beneficial and safer to use separate cables for each 8 pin slot so I have ordered more and will play it safe until they arrive.
      So far I have tested it out on some of my more demanding games and I can safely say that It beats the hell out of my old 3060ti this things a beast! Defiantly glad I went ahead and got it. Thanks for the recommendation!

      You're right. Slightly better in the games you select and then out performs by a significant amount in most others.

    Bought the same card. I replaced my 6900xt Red Devil. The Nitro+ runs hotter & is much louder than my Red Devil. AMD has problems with idle power & multi-monitor support. Connect 2 or more monitors & idle power draw was around 100-140 watts. GPU vram would stay maxed out. Couldn't play VR with the new 7900xtx. Driver's are terrible with VR. Returned the Nitro+ & bought the 4090. All my problems were solved. AMD needs to allocate more funds to their driver dept. I'll stick with Nvidia for now.
