The Radeon RX9070XT / RX9070 Owners Thread

[Kirkatron]

Like for like comparison in Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered 4k Native on my Red Devil 7900 XTX and Nitro+ 9070 XT.

Both OC'd and UV'd with max power, same drivers and system.

HZD 7900 XTX 111FPS

HZD 9070 XT 115 FPS

Genuinely thought i would lose on raster to my XTX as it ran fast.
Over the moon with the 9070 XT overclocking ability as AMD promo material had HZD remastered at 99 FPS native 4k with 9070 XT.

@Craig_d1 Thanks that TriXX SW worked a treat.

Upload it to a image hosting site (imgur for example) then paste the direct image link here using the image icon when you write a reply!

I have only tried Black Ops 6 so far,but FSR4 is a huge upgrade over FSR3

Moved from a 4070 to 9070XT a nice bump in graphics score.

 

[Tythus]

Originally i thought the Core offset did nothing but it does add a little extra to the score.

9070 XT Nitro+:
Core +400
Mem 2700
UV -175mv
Power +10%

Timespy:

Overall Score: 31437
GPU Score: 33875
CPU Score: 22333

Timespy Results Here

Happy with that.

it does but out of the levers you have it's pretty much the least effective

After many driver crashes running various benchmarks on my Sapphire Pulse 9070 XT (Neon Noir, Heaven, Valley, Superposition, World of Tanks enCore RT) I settled on -95mV, 2,764MHz (default timings), +10% Power Limit.

My Sapphire 9070 xt pure arrived today. What an amazing card. Runs so cool and quiet.

so everyone is posting crazy results but none of these are stable , you can easily pass the benchmarks but try to do few different games session and you will get constant crashes

1. Sapphire
2. RX 9070 XT
3. Nitro+
4. 14/3/25

Almost double the performance of the 6800 XT Nitro it replaced.

Seems no one else has had this issue, but wanted to post it in case any one encounters it.

I upgraded from a GTX970 so removed all Nvidia drivers and installed Adrenaline when adding the 9070 XT (Powercolor Reaper). Everything seemed fine, but Chrome would have horrific lag spikes. No other browser I tried had this issue (Firefox & Edge).

Disabling Hardware Acceleration solved the issue, but I wanted to have it enabled. There is an experimental flag in Chrome where you can set the rendering technology (chrome://flags/#use-angle). I've tried all options, and D3D9 is the only one that allows me to have Hardware Acceleration enabled and zero lag.

Likely either an edge case driver issue, or just the fact that I'm too lazy to format and have a clean install.


Loving the card, seems my 3700X is still keeping up with TimeSpy scores around 20k.

I also have a 600w Corsair SFX PSU and have had no issues with power (also with undervolting and TDP at 10%+)

Thats not even a good OC score for an XT, mine is stable, no crashes in games using the OC with 33k score on Timespy. I know how to do a stable overclock from running my 7900 XTX for over 2 years.

This is the classic “how long is a piece of string” analogy. Basically it depends on the game.

I can get stable -100mV in 3DMark time after time. Same with HZD remastered, but load up Elden Ring for some co-op with my son and it will crash with anything more than -45mV.

It’s not a major problem of course because the difference is maybe 2% in performance. I also tune my GPUs more for efficiency than for outright performance. My son’s 9070 XT Pulse is set at -20% power limit, 2700 VRAM fast timing and -45mV to keep it stable in Elden Ring. It gives stock performance at 245w

Basically 3DMark is not a good way to check for a stable overclock.

No it's a really bad way to check stability, i could pass 3dmark with a 200mv undervolt but it wouldnt work in games. I'm saying I've used all the games I knew to make my 7900 XTX unstable to test my clocks to get the settings I scored in 3dmark. Clocks that aren't stable in games are pointless.

Seems like you really lost the silicon lottery with -45mv.

 

[Bidley]

I find Steel Nomad is a good preliminary test. If you can get through 10 loops of that you're doing ok. But yeah the only way to know for sure is to test lots of games.

i am experiencing exactly the same , benchmarks i can go over -100 , meanwhile while gaming it is debatable if -60 is stable , tested on mine and another guy that i know and we are both around that range on the pulse model

He's not going to do much better than that with -20% power limit.
