Well I may have committed a bit of Heresy as I wanted something for 2 weeks over Christmas and I sold my old GPU the day I received the 7900 XTX!returning was the smart choicehopefully the replacement works a lot better!

7900 xtx help

at least stock is on the horizon, not like the poor people who sold their cards before the 3000 series launch
Send it back obviously something is wrong with it , it's over heating and throttling to keep itself from burning up . Could be cooler/ paste mounting issue or something hardware related just send it back
I was one of them sold my 2080 about 3 months before nightmare!at least stock is on the horizon, not like the poor people who sold their cards before the 3000 series launch
Blimey thats not good.anyone else had these issues?
found my old saved benchmarks from my 3080 Time spy 16315 port royal 11906. 7900 xtx time spy 10927 port royal 10577
My 6800XT / 5800X does 18500 ish and 5600x 3070 does 12300 ish.

Forget the benchmarks comparisons for now mate. The 110C junction temp on the VRAM is the cause of the performance loss and full speed fans. The 7900XTX is faster than a 3090 in both those benchmarks so it's obvious your card is throttling due to bad or missing thermal pads. Some production workers slack off sometimes and fail to do their job properly. You can use GPU-Z to monitor everything and you should see the clockspeed dropping when the memory junction temp hits 110C.
You need to RMA it and get another one.

I'd echo that based on my tuned 7900 XTX MBA Port Royal score of 18297.
I scored 18 297 in Port Royal

"Much like Nvidia, AMD’s latest cards run a little hot. AMD says the Radeon RX 7900 XTX can run at up to 110 degrees Celsius junction temperature during a typical gaming session, and I measured temperatures hitting nearly 100 degrees during demanding games"
Post a gpu-z sensors screenshot after you have ran the benchmark. Would be a good indicator of whats going on.
Also read this thread for some undervolting info that could help :

Loads of noise now regarding this over heating issue. People saying to see if putting the case on its side so the card is vertical will fix the issue.... I might give this a go tomorrow as its boxed up ready for RMA. Thing is if the temps go down will that improve the speed of the card?
Just send it back.
My xfx 7900 xtx runs at 52 degrees under load, hotspot around 65.

AMD Confirms Investigation Of Alarming Radeon RX 7900 XTX And XT Temp Spikes
Big GPUs run hot; that's expected. However, AMD's new Radeon RX 7900 series can run very hot indeed, and AMD's looking into why.

With all these heat problems with reference XTX, imagine if they'd put a PCIE-5.0 12VHPWR power connector on these cards as well and then people put them in to to compact cases...

People should stop buying reference models, always been historically ****. These AMD cards are shockingly bad craftsmanship, embarrassing.Send it Back

Posted this in another thread but it makes more sense now https://www.reddit.com/r/overclocking/comments/zny4a4/bigger_fansmore_overclock/
