The Radeon RX9070XT / RX9070 Owners Thread

Some Steel Nomad Testing Results to show the effect of changing the different settings.

For me the Core Offset does nothing when setting to a positive value but helps stabilise the above 3.4Ghz boost when set to negative.

I threw in a couple of 50% static fan profiles to show how cooling effects performance.

Mem above 2760 Fast timings had no extra performance and above 2800 had a negative impact.

First scored entry is trying to simulate a reference clocked none OC card with reference power limit.

Run on the system in my Sig. Steel Nomad required a higher core voltage to be stable than the games I currently play.

NOPE means it wasn't stable enough to run multiple runs.

Well done this is excellent work. When mine finally turns up I’ll give this a go.

210% difference according to techpowerup.
Wow, I didn't realise it was that high.

I hope this works out, last time I had an AMD card it crashed continuously and the one before that released the magic smoke on first boot. From then on I stayed with Nvidia and it's been a pretty faultless experience.

Feel's good giving Nvidia the finger though, based on Jenson's ego, lies and poor 5000 release.

You will need to do a minimum of using DDU to get rid of the drivers. Some forum members have had todo a clean install.
 
I used FSR3 in the game settings and I'm getting FSR4,the problem is it says I have a 4090 in the benchmarks

I can't get the FSR3 inputs to work. The optiscaler menu comes up but changing upscalers has no effect. Only XeSS as source API is working for me. I'm on Win11 so maybe that is causing the issue. FSR4 still looks great though but would prefer to use the fsr3 inputs.
 
Regarding Optiscaler; how likely is it that NV will accidentally "break" support for it from DLSS if it gains considerable traction (though I guess you can use Xess/FSRxx in it's stead)?

They do have form in this regard from the past.

NB. I've not yet played with Optiscaler so this is just based on what i've cursively read.

Optiscaler and other mods such as CyberFSR and DLSS2FSR3 have been around for over 3 years now. I doubt Nvidia cares or if they can do anything about it. They have to have their dll files in the game directory and that is where Optiscaler hooks into the game. They wouldn't integrate DLSS code into a game because it's proprietary and even game devs can't look at it's code.
 
Makes sense, thank you for the explanation. Sounds like there is nothing to lose by trying it and a considerable gain if it works.
 
Decided to buy one on Thursday on the 2pm drop, card arrived Friday morning at 7.15am! I set a limit of £650 in the rumour thread a month or two ago so I was at my limit! I think it's too much really but I've been waiting for 3 months to upgrade so that I can build my girlfriend a PC of her own. Absolutely 0 chance I would buy an Nvidia card at this point so I couldn't be bothered to wait any longer, especially as I don't expect to see msrp any time soon.

In optiscaler I just used FSR3.x,then changed FSR settings to FSR4.0.0.I'm in Windows 11 also,but it doesn't really matter if it's working,it's so much better than FSR3
 
What people should remember regarding Cyberpunk and the difference between FSR3 and FSR4 via Optiscaler... CDPR's implementation is awful, and is actually worse than the FSR2 in the game. And FSR2 is bad in that game to begin with. They added FSR3 months after 3.1 released. Which makes sense as they didn't want 3.1's decoupled frame gen to use with older RTX cards and DLSS upscaling.

It makes sense as it's an Nvidia-sponsored game, and FSR4 is a massive leap ahead of FSR3.1 in general, but Cyberpunk isn't a great scenario for FSR native.

Thank god for modders :)

I hope that the vendor neutral endpoint is eventually adopted from MS
 
Cyberpunk uses XeSS inputs to get FSR4 working.
I just booted up CP2077 and it remembered that FSR4 was enabled. It works like this : Enable XeSS in the game settings and open Optiscaler menu, set upscaler to fsr3.x (FSR4.0.0). Now when I change upscaler in the game settings to fsr2 or fsr3 it uses those upscalers but when I switch to Xess it uses FSR4.

Generally you shouldn't need to change the upscaler in the game settings once you have Optiscaler working. You can change the upscaler from within the Optiscaler menu to test out the different upscalers for comparison reasons.

Once you set it that's it
Lol, thanks @fs123 for trying, thanks @Case1987 for the info I was looking for.

I'm lazy so just tried your last one without really thinking and got Timespy from 28k to 31k (GPU score) no bother. Nice work!
