***** AMD RX 7900 SERIES AVAILABLE & IN STOCK TODAY FROM 2PM ****(BACK ORDER UPDATES WITHIN THIS THREAD)*

@Gibbo same here. No feedback for my upgrade order since you announced the Nitro+ XTX stock arrival and the website was already shown they are in stock.
I already sent a web ticket 2 days ago but no response as of now. My order number is 6482657 (Internet Reference: ST5189522).
Could you have a look on it? Will it be faster if I cancel and reorder the same item to let the team ship it?
Many thanks.

Just asked warehouse to look into, for some reason the computer systems are treating your orders as if you still have an MBA card and as such is flagging them out of stock. I've told warehouse to manually over ride and ship your Nitro's out whilst we still have stock.
 
@Gibbo sorry to also be a pain, do you know what the situation is with the Sapphire MBA cards? I ordered mine back on the 13th December (ST5189660), and I know they're on back order, so happy to wait, but was just wondering ;-).


Yes we have around 300 coming in next week which will cover all back orders. :)
 
@Gibbo Hi Gibbo, any chance you could see if someone can reply to my web note/email, unfortunately ive this heat pipe issue on my 7900 XTX and have had to revert back to my 3090 RTX currently as games keep crashing etc :(

are the issue cards being RMA'd to overclockers or AMD directly?

Cheers
James

You return to OcUK via the normal RMA channels, who will get the card replaced / refunded.
 
Evening @Gibbo

Just wondering on left stock in hand at warehouse for Sapphire RX 7900 XTX Nitro? I may wanna order and just wanted before it goes.

Also I had a Sapphire RX 7900 XTX Pulse on pre-order, Order Number: 6488620 (Internet Reference: N/A). If that's coming this week or two I may just hold off Nitro, any chance of ETA info?

Per chance any ETA info on EK RX 7900 series water blocks?

Cheers
Gup

Yes Pulse XTX are due in next week. :)

What a pain in the arse, RMA'd my card last week hoping for a replacement, got a refund instead, despite desired action being replace, and seeing other here who RMA'd on the same day getting replacements. Just called up both sales & returns and nothing they can do about it. Not willing to spend more than I already have for an MBA card (price has gone up since I originally ordered).

Oh well.

When more MBA cards land in stock, please drop a message here and I shall reduce them to £1049 to let you get an order in for one.
 
Any update on the ETA? Thanks!

Yep sorry, they have been delayed further, it seems AMD is testing them prior to shipping as the 300 units expected to ship is now reduced down to 265 units. So they are checking the coolers.

In short good and bad cards reach 110c junction temperature but a faulty card will reach if pretty damn quick, even with regular gaming and then throttle heavily below even advertised clocks.
A working card will still reach 110c but it takes longer and normally only using stress testing or benchmarking, gaming less likely and even then when they do hit this temperature the card only throttles a little and is still within AMD guidelines.
 
If 110c is normal then AMD should simply stop making their own coolers. Perhaps cards completely, not defending that crap.

Junction temperature is the highest temperature of a semiconductor (GPU hot spot, not entire package) on a card.

Don't confuse junction temperature with GPU temperature, two very different things and pretty much all cards will reach 100c plus on junction/VRM/hotspot, but typically a card won't sit and remain at 110c limit it will be brief or not at all in normal use, but of course if the cooler is faulty (lack of water in vapor chamber) then the card is not able to remove heat effectively or quickly enough from the GPU because vapor chamber is not working, at which point the card see's temps at 110c quickly and not reducing so throttles hard. A card with a working vapor chamber should only be reaching 110c is stressed heavily and it should still take some time. In regular gaming scenario it should not hit 110c or if it does will be short and/or a minor throttle to within spec will solve it.

Hey Gibbo, I bought the Sapphire Radeon RX 7900 XTX with 2 yr warranty, can I change my order to the Nitro + the warranty I've already bought? Thanks

We don’t sell warranties.

A card comes with a warranty but if you contact customer service they can change / upgrade your order for you.
