The Radeon RX 7900 XT(X) Owners Thread.

[Zaguer]

This is my 4th XTX with this issue. Only thing left to test is motherboard change. All have the exact same whine.

I really doubt it could be the motherboard. Sounds like might be the GPU design and there is nothing we can do.
In any case, that is not as bad as the one I had (reference) so definitely worth spending a bit extra on the Nitro. Still, is very annoying spending so much money on something and being far from great

 

[Vimes]

Yep they happen under load and anything over 60FPS.

And is that noticeable for you, where you sir and where the PC is placed?

It's yours fairly typical, rather than exceptionally loud?

Thanks

Seems the XT and XTX can be similar.

Yep it’s beside me on ikea ALEX drawers so it’s touching distance away. I can see and hear it. If the case was away I wouldn’t mind but I don’t the space to move it any further away.

you must have had an accommodating retailer to now be on your 4th

Thinking of changing the motherboard, desperate times. Kinda understand even if it seems a little extreme. Is that an expense that you would have to take the hit on, perhaps not being able to return and refund your board..?
Most frustrating for you.

Out of curiosity, how are you on your 4th? RMA?

how do you spot rma'able coilwine vs 'normal'

The retailer I used actually tested the cards and got the same coil whine and logged it as faulty.

That's fortunate for you, point taken I have shopped there for ease of replacements. So critical, especially with monitors. Really difficult to get a decent performing monitor that is acceptable first time round.

Perhaps you also need to think about an Nvidia card, after changing the motherboard if that does not work..?

Becuase Nvidia cards don't have coil whine....

He’s had 3 nvidia cards already

 

[Vimes]

There is a third option now............................. Intel

Deperate times, and all of that.

At the cheaper end....

Perhaps they should be included now, rather than Haribo's.

Nvidia is just as bad maybe even worst just have look around YouTube and this forum.

the Pulse is down to £979 which is a pretty good price. I hate to admit it but I care about RGB too much to pull the trigger on that one so I'll wait a bit more for the Nitro to come down too
