The Radeon RX9070XT / RX9070 Owners Thread

Sumanji said:
Finally caved in and got the Asus 9070 XT for ~$760 incl. tax (~565 gbp)... the CP2077 2.3 patch with FSR4 is what pushed me over the edge :cry: sorry @Thekwango

One thing that struck me out of the box was the weight difference between my reference 6900XT (1.52kg) and this Asus card (1.16kg). Copious amounts of cheap plastic have definitely been used.

I'm on the latest 25.8.1. driver - any other suggestions for a 9000 series noobie please? :p

@CAT-THE-FIFTH can you TROH me up please? Apologies for the awful pic!

I am massively behind - probably a few 100 owners by now!

Seeing as it’s you, I’ll forgive you :p To be honest, I may have to dig deeper into my pocket and accept I need to buy a new card. My current card is slowly doing the dance of death. :( But she’s served me well so I can’t complain too loudly.

Vega 64 iirc? Might be time to take that ol' dawg out back :(

Join the glorious RDNA4 master race :cool:

Aye, I might actually refit its own cooler (it’s in a custom loop) and mount it on the wall of the man cave when/if I give in and replace it - or it dies completely. I’ve had so much fun with this card as it just loved to be tweaked (ohh err!!)

That seems like a nice send off mate, do it :)

We’re in the midst of doing an extension and the car needs replacing - there’s a strong possibility my missus might well mount me on the wall if I sploodge 600 odd notes on a gpu :p That said, I’m 50 later this year, so she can’t begrudge me an early birthday present….can she:cry:

Edit: all joking aside, I actually think I will do that with the vega when it is finally retired/deaded.

Haha :cry: That genuinely made me laugh out loud, mate :D
Well I suppose, as long as she puts you in a frame on the wall, then you can be mounted next to the Vega? :P
Ah, early Happy Birthday for the upcoming birthday mate :)
If she doesn't comply, then tell her the car you're planning on replacing will have to be a highly impractical mid-life crisis car :D

Yeah, please do, and put a picture up :)

Divorce/dump her, then the whole house is a man cave ;)

Sweet, seems all good from a quick 5 minute run of that tool :D

What about power limits? Any benefit to cranking that up, or is it a case of diminishing returns?

Small benefit from cranking power, but you're well past peak efficiency, I tend to set -10% in this heat.

Well I say man cave. It’s an extension (unfinished but probably 70% there) that will initially be a home office/second living room/bolt hole from the kids but I have been assured that a whole corner of it is for me to do with as I wish. So yea I’m calling it my man cave to any one my wife will never speak with. And yes I do wear the trousers in the house :cry:

You won't have to wear trousers in the man cave though ;) :eek: :p

Is there much difference in the performance of the 9070XT by manufacturer? I'm about to pull the trigger on the ASUS Prime as it's the maximum size I'd want for possible future plans to swap to ITX (it'll fit the cases I'd be looking at, but it's about the limit) which obviously rules out anything like the 3 slot Sapphire on sale right now on OcUK
 
Hi all, just upgraded GPU from an Asus 1080TI to the Asus 9070XT. ive changed the PSU to 1200 watts, which we ran on the 1080TI with no problems. Got the new card today and installed it. New Doom runs flawlessly. But his having massive micro stuttering in Forza 5. Never had this with the 1080TI. Any tips to sort this out? With thanks

Did you delete the existing shader cache? This can cause issues when changing GPU if not deleted.

I scored 32 334 in Time Spy

Intel Core i9 processor 14900K, AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT x 1, 49152 MB, 64-bit Windows 11}

Thought i'd run my 9070XT with the 14900k after swapping out the 13700k. As expected, the 13700k wasn't a bottleneck for this card at 1440 and it still gets 34k GPU score.
