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.
No joke, it's the most beautiful graphic card I've ever seen, the craftsmenship is nutty (I'm also bias because I own one). Good Video thank you.
I absolutely happy with the decision for Sapphire !
It's been a great card so far
Looks good , it will run just fine on a 750 . I have the Red Devil running on a 750 just fine and OC'd
Watching this before getting my Nitro+ XTX. Making me excited! How you been liking it the past 6 months?
Absolutely love it so far! Since I'm only using 1440p 144hz display I haven't found a game I can't max out yet. Looks and performs like an absolute dream
@@JordanK Highly recommend testing it out on Battlefield 1 or V. I'm getting mine as soon as I'm paid
I would love the 7900xtx. Just need it to come down a bit in price.
yeah it's spendy, but so worth it so far. Also... Great for the next few years
NIce purchase! This is the card I wanted but couldn't find it in stock. Ended up with the Red Devil 7900xtx , also a pretty nice thic boy
I was actually going to get the red devil. Guy at micro center told me they had one of these in stock as well and after looking worked better for what I needed. Those 2 HDMI ports are huge for what I do. Also the color matched the PC better lol
I MIGHT BE A SIMP BUT AT LEAST THIS SIMP MAKES U SMILE
Sometimes 😂😂😂
@@JordanK I don't think it's sometimes. Anytime you've streamed I made u smile or laugh once
Ok fair... I can't argue that lol. Thanks for helping make chat fun!
@@JordanK you're welcome!! 🩵🩵
U must have a powered usb hub plugged in. Mine did that so I got rid of the powered hub. It probably won’t hurt anything but sometimes it’s better to be safe than sorry
At least a display port cable and hdmi could have been included in the package ... At least the display port one since it boasts of the upgraded port
Can you link up what cables extensions are you using? They look dope in your setup. Olso whats that sleeve on kraken cable?
was honestly expecting a linus moment when you were peeling with one hand
Great looking setup. I just picked up that same Sapphire card.
Heck yeah!!!! Such a great card!
i need to get familiar with gpu brands other than nvidia, i have no idea what the numbers mean for this one.😂😂
Edit: im almost finished with my university work so ill be getting back into yt vids if anyone wants to check them out. would be very much appriciated. Apologies for promoting but im excited lmao.
This card would be a competitor to the RTX 4080
What about productivity? How do you edit video on this card? DaVinci Resolve performance?
Resolve doesn't let you render videos using the GPU accelerator unless you pay for it. That being said I've seen a few numbers in other videos where this card absolutely crushes my 2070 I was using. That's totally expected though
I think your power supply still had power in it because your cables were storing power and psu's have transisors can sometimes can hold power and turn it into a power bank.
LOL transistors don't hold power, capacitors do. Nice try though.
I'm going from an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Founder's Edition to this Sapphire 7900XTX Nitro+
How is your gpu ? Any issues?
@@sajithsaji3606 None... but I had to update the BIOS
@@Alexandrov bro I have a doubt is there any difference in image quality comparing AMD and nvidia or both are same? I'm asking about rasterization image quality
@@sajithsaji3606 You wouldn't even notice, 7900 XTX is like 2% faster than the RTX 4080 Super. AMD cards are often on a par with or even ahead of Nvidia at the same price.
AMD GPUs generally have better rasterization (used in almost all games) performance for their price. Nvidia GPUs generally have better ray tracing performance for their price (used in some recent AAA games, such as Alan Wake 2 and Cyberpunk 2077).

Im running mine on a Seasonic 750 psu no issues at all
Good to have some headroom though. Card draws 400 watts of power on it's own when under full load. Pair that with a CPU, RGB, drives, fans, aio pump, and anything else that draws any amount of power and you're going to be close.
@@JordanK But 750w still relative fine. I'm planning upgrading psu next month to 1000w
I’m very jealous of this setup you got going here. If only I wasn’t a broke college student. One of these days I will upgrade my setup…
You'll get there eventually. It takes lots of time for sure
Wait was the GPU sagging at all when you screws weren't in?
Yeah it was a bit. Problem is fixed with the screws and bracket it comes with
i wanted to see u install the bracket... thing was a absurd nightmare to screw in
You think so? I actually found it to be easier than most other brackets I've installed. A few of them are absolutely nightmares (Asrock 7900xtx taichi)
Nice review, how has been your experience with this 7900xtx? Thinking about updating my 3070 to this exact one from Sapphire
I love it! Upgraded my monitor to 4k and I haven't found a game I can't max out and run at over 100fps yet. It's been running like an absolute dream so far
oh my god guys Jordan has his PC on the floor
No
I'm about to purchase this beast of a card. But I'm still wondering if this card can still power on to my 750w PSU. Running low on budget to get a new 850w PSU🤣
Depending on the CPU you could pull it off. The 750w would be cutting it CLOSE
Welcome back to UA-cam, friend.
Thank you kind sir
I have this card too, and it’s great man. Congrats!
Bro i have a doubt Is there any difference in image quality comparing amd and Nvidia or both r same?
What exactly are you doubting? Both AMD and Nvidia would look exactly the same at the same settings.
what are you going to do the that rtx 2070 then?
It's in the streaming PC
4k is such a marketing gimmick. Its one thing to play at 4k native but with all these frame gen and ai upscaling techniques its such a bad joke to even push for 4k. I bought this card and am in 1440p heaven right now. Demolishes every game at max settings well above 240 fps.
4k is definitely worth the upgrade. Recently got a 4k monitor and it looks so much better than 1440p. Also now with frame gen and upscaling I can play games in 4k ultra and still get over 144 fps. It works so well
@@JordanK I downgraded from a 4K 60Hz gaming monitor to a 180HZ 1440p gaming monitor. I've now witnessed the fluidness (is that a word?) that higher refresh rates brings to the gaming experience. So I definitely wouldn't go back to a 4K 60Hz monitor. 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. It's just not worth the hassle, imo . I'm sticking with 1440p monitor.
@TheNerdGasm
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.
I just picked one up for $439.00 on Amazon today... really wanted 4080, but couldnt pass this up
You got a 7900xtx for less than $500???
@@JordanK it was a scam! I cancelled the order. The next day, there were 3 new sellers with xtx's at $439.00.
I ended up getting an rtx 4080 at best buy for $1059.00. A lot for sure, but one i prefer over $949.00 xtx
@@JordanKit’s a scam ! There’s been one seller posting these for 250$ however it was a scam.
does this improve the gaming skill or just the visuals?
Nothing can help my skill
I was always a Radeon fanboy until i met an RTX 4090 :/ just watching this to make sure i never make a mistake lol
Both are great cards. No mistakes made either way
Does it need te extra fan and rgb header to work or can u control the rgb via the pcie slot ... bcouse my mobo 3 and 4 pins are al occupied
Controls through software. You can hook it up to your MB header if you want to control through whatever RGB software your MB has (Aura, mystic lighting, ect), but Sapphire has their own program you can use to control everything
that thing is huge
Hi. What power consumption on desktop? I see you have 2 monitors)
Do you have any problems? Can't choouse - this GPU or 4080.
I actually have 4 displays hooked up to it and I've never had a problem. If you want raw performance this is the way to go. 4080 will win in ray tracing, but that's about it
@@JordanK Roger that. So 7900xtd or 4090) But nvidia seems to have better performance with DLSS/FSR without using RT (+ few years of using. Or not:) )
I’m getting this card anyone know which motherboard and cpu I should get/use?
Well that all depends on your cash flow. For example, I have the Sapphire 7900 XTX Pulse. And it's running on a Ryzen 7 7800X3D CPU, MSI B650 Tomahawk Mainboard with 32GB of DDR5 G.Skill Trident Z5 RGB Ram. That should keep me gaming for a few years before having to upgrade parts again.
you have discovered free unlimited energy with that MB 🤣🤣
How is the card doing? I have 2060 gaming laptop, just bought the same card as you because i found a good price, so guess i need to build a pc now, for the first time lol.
So far I'm LOVING it. I only play in 1440p and not thr 4k this card is meant for, but it's completely maxed out every single game I've put on and hasn't struggled once. It's an absolute beast
@@JordanK are the temps good ?
Temps are great. Highest I've ever seen was 69 and that was with a fan curve where I didn't want any noise. Played Sea of Thieves a few nights ago for 6 hours and the highest I saw with a normal fan curve was 56
Got this same card hell yeah
Is this specific card better gaming performance wise than a msi rtx 3080 gaming x trio 10gb , because I want to upgrade from the msi to this one, is it worth it?
It will be better, but the 3080 is a solid card. I wouldn't upgrade unless you REALLY want a new card.
If you were to guess how much % better would the amd card be performance wise, because i cant run games like re4 remastered at max settings since it uses over 12gb vram, would the amd run a game like that at max at around 100fps atleast? If so I'd be happy
You're gonna have to look up benchmarks and see how it performs. I don't have a 3080 to test anything
@@JordanK shot, thanks tho I've been researching all day just trying to confirm everywhere how much the difference is lmao, I'll carry on.
Do all 4 ports enabled for 4 similtanous monitors at the same time?
Sure do! Works great
I’m finally watching the video LOL
Better late than never
imagine not being able to comment? could never be me
You're one of youtubes favorites
Great video!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
SO, I FORGOT TO CHECK THE DIMENSIONS AND THIS IS SITTING OVER MY 3 FAN AIO LIKE YOURS IS, BUT THE CARD IS SITTING UP TOO HIGH TO PLUG INTO THE PCIE... I WANNA BUILD A SECOND MACHINE ANYWAY, SO THATS WHAT IM GONNA DO NOW, BUT HOW DID YOU GET YOURS IN? ADAPTER? MOBO ON RISERS?
I'm confused by your question? What adapter would I have needed?
@@JordanK LIKE AN EXTENSION, MY AIO IS BLOCKING MY CARD FROM BEING ABLE TO BE PUT INTO THE PCIE SLOT CUZ OF ITS HEIGHT.
@@JordanK ALL I'M SAYING / ASKING IS THAT IT LOOKS LIKE YOUR CARD IS ALSO COVERING YOUR AIO BUT YOU WERE STILL ABLE TO GET IT PLUGGED IN. HOW? IT SEEMS LIKE YOUR AIO SHOULD HAVE BLOCKED THE ABILITY TO PLUG IT IN LIKE IT DID MINE.
Depend on what you consider 1440p my samsung g9 won’t be maxed out by it and it’s 5210 x 1440
hey im getting the g9 neo. is the g9 as good as it looks?
@@epicdessert457 only thing to be weary about is getting a bad unit. Samsung are notorious for shitty QC to a point there have been plenty of people who have had to send back the monitor 4+ times before getting a decent one. Also they seem to crack in the middle later down the line. The panel itself is fine and not bad but at the price its at you are taking a huge gamble on getting a good unit
can we swap my 3060ti ? since you don’t need it on 1440p
Man only thing separating me from this card is money.
monster card but too expensive in bulgaria it costs 1300 us dollars $ right now ...
why you said rx 7900 xtx is an overkill for 1440p ?
Because it is. It's a card meant for high end 4k gaming. 1440p is nothing for this card
@@JordanK ok. then what amd cards would you be suggesting for 1440p gaming
You CAN use this card for 1440p and be ready for the future with more demanding games, but the. 7900 GRE, 7800xt, or any RTX 4070 variant would be great
a huge gpu for a huge man
Truuuuuuuue
No one installs the support bar tsk tsk
It is though?
Damn, that gpu tho.
It's a beast
Omg I been researching this card all day but sold out unless you want to pay 1500 now 🤦🏻♂️ with that price 4090 is better choice
I got mine at Micro Center for MSRP. Great deal if you have one near you
this card is at $449 on amazon right now worth it?
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
@@JordanK I just realized that
What case is this one? 9:40 sec.

Great video
Thanks dude!
Was the 850watt enough for this card?
I never ran into issues with it, but I did switch it out for a 1300w after a few weeks. 850 just felt like I was cutting it a little close. I also wanted that PSU back in the streaming rig
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!
It's an amazing card! Going to be a huge upgrade for you for sure!!! You buy this now and you won't have to worry about upgrading for a LONG time.
So long story short... "Just do it"-Nike
@@JordanK thanks! I now have one on it's way. Can't wait to install it!
I'm super excited for you!!! Let me know how you like it!
@@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.
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!
lol, listening to this vid on my way to buy a new psu…
EVGA = best NVIDIA Aftermarket brand
SAPPHIRE = best AMD Aftermarket brand
RIP EVGA
Lechonk Boi! 🐖 Names new gpu Pumba or Wilbur (like I did with my pokemon in Violet) this is the way 😂
OMG that would be a hilarious name for a card that big LOL
Mines in the post 😬
HECK YEAH!!! Absolutely incredible card for me so far. Enjoy it!
@@JordanK OMW...... This card is a monster.... hitting a solid 3200mhz on the core, not even touched the turning yet, that right out of the box
3200??? Highest I've ever seen on mine was 3036. That's impressive
@@JordanK what PSU are you running, I'm running a Thermaltake 1000w 80plus gold. I have run three separate cables to the PSU as well, but its not pulled over 380watts yet, I've seen some pulling close to 600watts or more
7:41 the WUT?
I don't even know...
😂
And yet Skyrim still crashes.. semi-regularly...
527 mods will do that. Not the GPUs fault
Why would you get this over 4080? It draws almost double the power and performs only slightly better at select games.
You're right. Slightly better in the games you select and then out performs by a significant amount in most others.
Also with all the shady practices and anti consumer crap Nvidia has been pulling recently I didn't want to go with them.
And has more vram, 4080 has only a mere vram of 16 lol
No no no no no no no no no no no no no
Wow... Such insight
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.
I'm hoping to see improvements in drivers as well. I've noticed a few quirks, but I also have never had an AMD card. Just wanted something that wasn't Nvidia this time around
even 850w is little you need 900w but to be safe go with 1000w
