XFX Speedster MERC310 AMD Radeon RX 7900XT Ultra Gaming Graphics Card with 20GB GDDR6, AMD RDNA 3 RX-79TMERCU9

I'll update this review when I'm home to take a few photos. But as of right now, this card is working just as good as can be expected.First things first. Yes, the 7900xtx performs better. Yes, for only 100$ it is the better buy. But that is if you can find one for ONLY 100$ more. I bought this gpu when it was 800$, so that makes the xtx version 200$ more. To me, that simply isnt worth it. But again, im just putting this info out there. Also, as of right now, I have an 850 watt psu, and the xtx recommends at minimum a 850, and when it comes to a psu, id rather not push it to the limit, even though I have a good seasonic platinum psu.Anyway, moving on ....This gpu is also .... quite large. So make sure you have an appropriate pc case. I have the 4000D and with three 120mm fans in the front of the case, I was JUUUUUST able to fit this card. The gpu does come with a brace, but I was not able to attach that, as it made the card an inch too long. I would recommend a brace / bracket/ support for this gpu as it is large and heavy. I'm just using a simple one I found on Amazon and works for what I need. Granted, each motherboard is different, as some have better reinforced pcie slots. Anyway, onto the performance of this card.Under graphically intense games like CyberPunk, Dead Island 2, and similar games. I'm able to get a solid 110fps on cyberpunk, and 160 on dead island 2, at 2k max settings. A card like this is obviously overkill on older games and mobas, but it works flawlessly. Enough about the fps, it will handle any game at max settings at 1080p, and definitely 100 fps at 2k max or damn close max settings. Under heavy load it's hotspot temps hit around 74c, and gpu temp around 55c. I also use a custom fan curve so these results are going to differ pc to pc, and how much airflow you have... etc etc. But the card does hold up well for its temps given my fan curve which is fairly subtle. I basically run the fans on the gpu at 30% at all times, ramping up to 50% while gaming. Also at 50%, I can tell you, at least in my case, the fans are fairly loud. Again, that will be subjective. But to me, they are a tad on the loud side.All in all this is a great card, and if you made it this far, hopefully I helped answer some questions.

I've had this GPU for about 8 months, and I love it. It is super quiet and is fantastic for gaming. It is a 3 fan GPU, so it is a little big, but it looks great and runs games even better. I rarely need to turn FSR on and I never have a problem getting 180 FPS at 1440p for my monitor. This GPU will last me many years and is a great bang for your buck.
