    Undervolting on new AMD cards is great, because you typically get more performance with lower temps and noise because you just boost higher under the same power budget. How much depends on the silicon lottery basically, but I recommend everyone to basically just turn down the voltage percentage scaler until you crash a benchmark immediately, and then turn it up ~5%. You can find the sweetspot more accurately (depends on thr load too) but you should be stable like that. If you still get crashes just turn the dial 1% up at a time until it doesn't.

      ​@@RKBenchmarker I am inclined to agree. At the very least it's the easily best value in the current generation of graphics cards, and that's coming from someone who recently bought a 7900 XT and is absolutely loving it.
      There's always going to be the argument that the 7800 XT is barely faster than the 6800 XT - and it's 100% true - but power consumption is down _a lot_ and the 7800 XT will most likely see driver support and game optimizations at least two years beyond the EOL of the 6800 XT.
      And it has AV1 encoding for streamers and content creators. Even non-streamers can benefit from the AV1 support if/when they sell the card a few years down the line, because even if they don't care about AV1 a future buyer might, and that's going to make the card easier to sell at a slightly higher price.

    I switched from a 3060 to a 7800 xt, been loving it. More of a competitive player over ray tracing so I just appreciate the raw performance of the 7800 xt. Price per frame is like half the 4070 especially when I got mine on a Black Friday deal, a xfx Merc 319 Radeon RX 7800 xt with a 3 year warranty and I got a free game with it. And I only paid, 500 no tax in nh at that time when I got my card 😅 very beefy card if you go the other manufacturers route so make sure you take that into consideration. Actually didn’t even install mine right away until I ordered a cooler master v3 vertical mount for my ATX case cause for example the OC xfx card is literally massive. Nice build quality over the regular stock Radeon, with the sales always happening with amd I wouldn’t recommend getting the base card. My xfx card stays cool and quiet and it may not be like in your face with rbg, but it does what I need it to do while looking sleek and cool with the all black and silver feel with the xfx white logo.

It's amazing to see how you can reduce power draw by 40-70 watts and still keep the performance at around stock levels, because the power draw was my only problem with the GPU.

    Thinking if I want 4k I’m going to have to return this card and get a 7900xt.

    Really great video! Honestly I was surprised to see the UV vs. OC settings. Maybe AMD should take note and just set this card to this UV by default to better compete vs. the 4070 in terms of power draw.
    Edit: I just got inspired by your video to try and Undervolt my 6900 XT Limited and I can't believe I didn't do this sooner. Playing CP2077 RN and basically the benchmark test went from 1.200V@341W -> 1.050V@267W with a ~2 FPS average drop for CP2077 (getting about 100 FPS on 1440p Ultra no-RT native) just by dropping the max frequency from 2700 to 2560. There's clearly some hidden algorithm with AMD here so there's more testing to go but man, you just saved me a ton of money and heat!

      AMD knows that very well but they have to play it safe for the average consumer. hence they pick voltages that work for every GPU they're selling.

      Don't listen to him about the 4k. With FSR turned on at quality and ultra settings this card will excell. I run a Sapphire 5600 XT with FSR balanced in cyberpunk 2077 and am around 30-60 fps. You will need to watch a settings video on youtube to find out which settings you can free with no cost and which actually decreases performance. And I do play on a TV, flasgship samsung Q90T 55', you will have no problem running 4k with this card. To be completley honest the HDR matters more and HDR is fps agnostic, but is depended on the quality of your monitor/tv.

    I opted for the ASUS TUF version of the 7800XT since it is rated as the most cool & quiet running 7800XT under load. It's pretty chunky sized though. Using it in my new 1440p build, paired with the 65W Ryzen 9 7900 12C/24T CPU (using the DeepCool AK620 Digital CPU cooler instead of the mediocre stock AMD Wraith cooler).

    Dude great vid here. The 7800XT is the replacement for the 6700XT. The 6700XT MSRP was $480 vs $500 for the 7800XT. Basically the same MSRP 3 years later and 47% faster. Think about that. We all know at this point AMD moved names up a peg in error. 7900XT is the 6800XT replacement when priced at $800 and below. 7900XTX is the 6950XT replacement at $900 now. The ONLY reason 6800XT was close to $500 was to clear them out. Everyone understands that now. TLDR on the 7800XT? It's your upgrade from the 6700XT or RTX 3070. AMD should NOT have moved names up like that. Stupid move but the cards are great.

      Dude. Your name clearly tells me your position here lol. Look AMD did a scummy move by naming it the 7800 XT. They shifted the product stack exactly like Nvidia. It’s scummy. It’s confusing. If they don’t want it compared to a 6800 XT, then maybe they shouldn’t have named it a 7800 XT. 🤔 I know it’s a crazy thought. But I think you can see where I’m coming from if you really think about it. Also, as a side note, even from the 6700 XT, I don’t think those users should upgrade. Just sit tight with your current and still relevant hardware. Also, the majority of the video is not even about the 6800 XT comparison. That was a couple of lines. Yet, this morning, all you guys only want to talk about is how the 7800 XT is a 6700 XT replacement. Are you guys in a group or something? lol what the heck man? Thanks for the view and comment.

    I do recall you said you wouldn't use this for 4K, and I agree to an extent... but I would confidently recommend this as a bare minimum for 4K, where I don't think I can say the same confidently about the 6800xt. They do tend to mature in drivers over time, as you referenced with the 6800xt.
    I really don't understand either hardware company cutting power in a stack shift, you'd think they'd try to do the opposite. 🤣

    • @ErockOnTech
      @ErockOnTech  7 місяців тому +6

      Yeah and 4K is hard to gauge because if you're running Halo The Master Chief collection, for example, you can max that game out at 4K and run a locked 120 FPS on a 3070. So clearly in that regard, a 7800 XT is a 4K card. But I wouldn't use it for 4K in CyberPunk for example. So as with all things in the PC space, it depends lol. But 4K is demanding in general. I really do believe 1440p is the sweet spot.

      @@Dlo_BestLife I'm not really sure what to say here, because it's not an entry card at any level lol. The 6900/6950xt does 4k just fine... like most cards with the exception of CP77, which can even to this day cripple a 4090 with path tracing. Speaking of which, are we excluding nVidia? Because I've got a 3080ti that says it's a 4k60+ card on every title I've thrown at it, including CP77. Even as biased as UB is against AMD, they aren't claiming a 3080ti beats a 7900xt... so I don't agree in the slightest either.
      I'm not saying I'd recommend the 7800xt as *_the_* card to get for 4k, as Erock says... and I agree... its' niche is clearly 1440p. It is also the bare minimum in *my* opinion, that you can buy from AMD in this gen, and game respectably at 4k. It can be two things at once, after all. lol

      That exact issue was at launch and was fixed with an update. The reason for some of the "weird" results was because of the game itself causing the know issue (such as the OC gpu having a lower wattage usage than stock). In the OC, the mV was left at default so he was strictly testing OC vs UV.

      What exactly are you asking? Benchmarking a GPU is just a test of how well the GPU performs at a given task. An example is how well does a 7800 XT run Halo at 4K? An overclock is different. An overclock is pushing the GPU past its out of box default settings. You’re squeezing as much performance out of the GPU as possible.

    The problem here is AMD's naming scheme. In reality, 7900XTX should be 7900XT and everything follows suit. So 7800XT should actually be 7700XT and it reflects with the performance. 7900XT should be the 7800XT which is the successor of the 6800XT. One possibility is so that they can sell it at a higher price while making people think they are selling it at lower.
    6800XT MSRP at launch is $649; 7800XT MSRP at launch is $499. Now if you think 7800XT is the successor, it would give the illusion that AMD lowered it's price. But if you look at 7900XT which should be the actual 7800XT, it's $899.

    Could someone please elaborate why undervolting leads to higher FPS? I would have thought its the other way! Would it work th esame on my old 1060 6GB too? Thanks!

      It gives your GPU headroom to boost clock speeds, which are dependent to some extent on heat, which is usually lower with undervolting.

    Here, 7800xt 16gb is costlier than 4070 12gb by around 84 usd(yes that’s right 😅), which should I buy, or should I wait for 4070 super, I was leaning towards nvidia

      If u need it now and prefer Nvidia 4070 but if ur fine with AMD drivers then go with this it's great value

    Is this card able to run 3 Monitors simultaneously? Triple display? @ 7:00 The overclock includes undervolt right? That might explain the lower watt draw on OC. Guessing
