    The Radeon RX 7900 XT(X) Owners Thread.

    For the Sapphire Pulse? feels like GPUs are becoming similar to Monitors in the way you need to go through a bunch before getting a normal working one. I've heard the Asus TUF cards are pretty bad for coil whine on the AMD side this time round as well.

    The Radeon RX 7900 XT(X) Owners Thread.

    7900xt Sapphire Pulse: Owned this card for a couple of hours; it's an absolute beast. I play 4k 144hz, and wanted 16gb+ VRAM without paying £1200 from Nvidia... Even from the 4070ti I briefly owned, this feels a fair bit stronger in a few of the games I've tested out. (MHW, WZ2 etc) It's...

    The Radeon RX 7900 XT(X) Owners Thread.

    Didn't turn up today despite paying extra for 'guaranteed' delivery. Off to a fantastic start! :rolleyes: ...and the 4070ti I sent back for RMA...was lost/stolen as well, never reached the retailer. I think I'm just cursed lol.

    The Radeon RX 7900 XT(X) Owners Thread.

    Ordered a 7900xt Pulse, should be here tomorrow. Got an open box for £100 less. Fingers crossed this is all good, as I've had god awful luck with GPUs recently. (3090ti I ordered was a scam, so was the 4080, then my 4070ti Gigabyte Eagle had fan issues...so back to the 2070 at 4k 144hz lol)...

    GSync not working on some games? Certain games look horrible.

    I assume no luck on your end?

    GSync not working on some games? Certain games look horrible.

    To update, I've upgraded my GPU to a 4070ti....still does the exact same thing. I've now replaced every single component in my PC, with no luck.... (to recap, anything other than 144fps locked, in basically all games, especially dota, looks trash) Only things I can think of left are trying an...

    If you are going to buy a next gen GPU, what games do you plan on playing?

    The reason I ask is that I use a 1440p 144hz monitor with a RTX 2070. I want to upgrade (damn itch) but the games I play don't REALLY require an upgrade. What games are you planning on playing if you have a GPU that is hypothetically 50% over a 3090? Do you just plan on going to 4k 144hz+ to...

    Do all of your games feel bad at 90-100fps also? BF2042 does the same. Great consistent frametime graph, but 110fps feels absolutely awful for some reason. :(

    GSync not working on some games? Certain games look horrible.

    I don't get it in every game. If I play say R6 Siege, 90-100fps feels so much nicer than 60fps. It's just certain games. It's also not due to framepacing or poor frametimes, as I've checked that as well and it's not related to when it looks jittery.

    GSync not working on some games? Certain games look horrible.

    Yeah, my monitor has basic and extended. Perhaps it's related to having a Freesync monitor with an Nvidia GPU. Who knows. I don't mind playing a game at locked 60, it looks bad compared to 144fps but, it's not the same thing that I get in Dota. If I use RTSS to cap FPS in dota at 60 or 75 or...

    V-Sync Off - Games feel choppy.

    Playing around with 0.1% and 1% lows...it seems random on my system. I'm using a 144hz monitor with G-Sync on. Playing TF2, if I cap it to 240fps with RTSS, the lowest I get is about 220fps, with a highest of 250 ish. This looks reasonably smooth, not quite as smooth as 144 vsync, but sort of...

    V-Sync Off - Games feel choppy.

    It's a weird one to describe as well, almost like it's another frame trailing the other. It reminds me of when video/drone footage is taken at the 'wrong' shutter speed or fps and looks jittery. It feels even worse if I try the 1ms blur reduction on my monitor as well. Probably because it's...

    V-Sync Off - Games feel choppy.

    Hi, Attempting to play CS:GO or TF2 with V-Sync off, and getting 300fps+, the game feels choppy, almost like it's at 30fps (no tearing though). I'm guessing this isn't normal? As I don't see how anyone could play without VSYNC ON otherwise in first person shooters. This is a bit of a...

    GSync not working on some games? Certain games look horrible.

    Have you been able to swap any parts with your brother's pc? perhaps SSD or GPU would be useful to know. Today I tried a new CPU, plugged my PC and Monitor into a different room, with nothing other than the display port and mouse plugged in...offline...still same issue. I feel I've tried...

    Well, 5800x didn't fix the issue unfortunately. No idea what else to try.

    GSync not working on some games? Certain games look horrible.

    Just got myself a 5800x. Will update if it makes a difference, even if not, still happy with upgrading. Also planning on replacing all SATA cables. Definitely also getting it in Phasmophobia when CPU bound.

    GSync not working on some games? Certain games look horrible.

    No I don't get it if I fix the game to 90hz or 75hz, but my game never drops to that low anyways. If I set it to 120hz, it will do it whenever it drops below this, and my theory is because it is the CPU usage spiking that is causing it. (mainly because I have no other theories :p)

    GSync not working on some games? Certain games look horrible.

    I think I see this with most games that are CPU bottlenecked now that I've looked for it, with Dota being the worst offender. Honestly I've no concrete idea what it could be. I've tested everything other than swapping CPU or GPU, and seeing as GPU usage is none existent when I see it, I'm not...
