HEATING AND POWER CONSUMPTION |
As for overclocking, in our opinion, the ASUS Radeon RX 7900 XTX It's better not to overclock for now, there is no profit from overclocking - the frequency in games is automatically set by the video card itself. The only thing that can be achieved by overclocking is an increase in energy consumption.
ASUS Radeon Gluttony Test RX 7900 XTX was carried out in conjunction with Intel Core i9 13900K 3.2 GHz + Z690 AORUS MASTER in a closed Thermaltake Core V51 case:
In "Bublik" in stock mode ASUS Radeon RX 7900 XTX shows 65 degrees, consumption 351 watts. From the socket the system consumes about 517 watts. Cyberpunk 2077 in stock mode ASUS Radeon RX 7900 XTX also shows 65 degrees, consumption 358 watts. From the socket the system consumes about 583 watts.
Now let’s put these temperature and energy consumption indicators into tables, with the results we obtained earlier:
As we can see, in FurMark the power consumption of the ASUS Radeon card RX 7900 XTX similar to consumption in games.
ASUS Radeon card temperature mode RX 7900 XTX is the same in both modes, but the frequency in the "donut" is 2200 MHz, and in games 2500-3000 MHz.

CONCLUSION |
Well, based on testing ASUS Radeon RX 7900 XTX we can conclude that the video card turned out to be very interesting, although it has a reference design. The model itself is quite compact and will fit most cases, unlike NVIDIA flagships. At the same time, the temperature regime is quite comfortable and, with proper cooling of the case, does not exceed the temperature of the graphics processor and does not exceed 65 ° C.
But, still, Radeon software RX 7900 XTX, in my opinion, is still quite raw and requires some refinement. Perhaps over time with new driver versions the card will show more impressive results and the performance level will catch up with GeForce RTX 4090 — she has the resources for this.
Well, for now, in games without ray tracing, Radeon RX 7900 XTX shows the performance level of the GeForce RTX 4080, and with ray tracing - the level of the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti. And although many users expected AMD to be a more worthy competitor to NVIDIA products, we got what we got.
Advantages
- good performance without RT
- compact dimensions and reasonable temperature conditions
Disadvantages
- performance in RT at the level of the top competitor of the previous generation
Well, of course, this is far from all of our ASUS Radeon tests RX 7900 XTX- to keep the intrigue for the annual reviews, so visit the site daily you will have more results of our new products!
