Unless i'm an actual idiot, which is possible; the support bracket doesn't actually fit on my Pulse - not that it needs it.

Here's mine fitting fine:

Decided I may as well take this opportunity to post proof for the owner's list :D

Just noticed from these pics I must still have some plastic sticking to my card.

My favourite case mod is the well sized piece of wood it sits on on the the floor lol.

To get on The Owners List all you have to do is post a pic with your user name on it of your Radeon RX 7900 XT(X).​

You git! As if the price drop on the Pulse hadn't already made me a little tempted, seeing the card in the same case I have only increases that urge...
 
Coil whine at >60 fps is a pretty rough. My 7900 XT can have coil whine at sub-100 fps, but only in weirdly specific scenarios (certain game menus), and I've not played around with the power settings or ruled out the role of my PSU yet.

I'd be looking at returning it if I were you.

From this thread and others seems to be luck of the draw on coil whine, though some models can have worse coil whine than others.

Though do the Reference cards have better or worse coil whine than AIB custom cards?

I have returned three cards already for Coil whine the only component I haven’t changed to check coil whine is my mother board. I have tried two different AIBs ASUS, Sapphire, two different PSU, EVGA, Corsair all have coil whine with my setup so the only thing I can think of is the motherboard now or it’s just my house as it’s a new build and I don’t know if the current in the house is clean. It’s wired as I have a 1080 Ti gigabyte old card and it too has coil whine so am like

I think it's just that most have coil whine.

Remember a lot of people have terrible hearing and can't hear certain frequencies :p

I've had coil whine in different cards in loads of different machines, houses, with different PSUs etc.

I came from a 3070 with barely any coil whine to a 7900XT (reference) with unbearable coil whine, so much that I had to return it. Now I’m looking for a nitro as it should be less noticeable.

The fans on the reference were also very loud under load, another reason for the nitro lol
 
I bought my 7900xt MBA in January and always struggled with temps.

I followed guides on undervolting and overclocking and one of the first thing everyone says is "push power limit to +15%". This is bad advice in my opinion but I suppose it depends on silicon quality.

My card doesn't really boost any higher having any power power limit over 9% with 1058mv on the core. At 15% power limit I often hit 95c on the hot-spot with 100% fan speed and case cooling is pretty damn good.

At 9% power limit and letting max boost clock down from 2950mhz to 2900mhz I get a max on 83c hot-spot at max 75% fan speed.

For the power, noise and heat difference I'll take that.

This sounds like you either lost the silicon lottery or the cooler has a bad contact with the gpu IHS. It should not be hitting 95 C with fans at 100% even with power limits increased, I would consider taking the cooler off and redoing the paste. I took cooler off my XTX and it is relatively straight forwards, do not forget to undo the tiny screws by the DP and HDMI and keep them all in a lil pot so you do not lose them.

Whilst the XT MBA does not have a vapour chamber it does have heatpipes and these can also be faulty in a similar fashion to a vapour chamber. If it is attached correctly then it just may be faulty because it certainly sounds like something is wrong.

7900XT doesn't really have it thank ****, my 4090 TUF did that was *awful* so I can def hear it despite boomer ears :p

It really can depend. My 7900Xt is acceptable to me i think. It is vaguely noticeable on occasion.

I have had some cards in the past that were REALLY bad. Like sounding like a pig squealing all the time :p
