Cheers. 1440P, going for high frame rates. Have a 240hz monitor so might finally be able to make proper use of that now lol.
Yeah one of my concerns is power and heat though with some undervolting I guess I can get it down under to 240W, or so. Which isn't too bad!

Yea I wouldn't worry too much. AMDs driver team has improved greatly from the past era and the amount of fps the 7900XT will give you will blow your mind. Let us know how it goes and post pictures of the sexy beast! $745 is an absolute steal! |
True pretty excited ngl. Passed on a few generations of GPU's already so will be a monumental upgrade in terms of visuals. Can finally boot up most of my games without much comprimise if at all - maybe not the RT ones xP Hopefully drivers will improve as will performance and still have FSR 3.0 to look forward to.
Yup, was waiting for this to drop and I just wanted something now and this was pretty much my biting point. And I will :D just a week to go!

Thanks man. Yeah.. quite happy with my system so far. And with this in my current build.. I won't have to worry about any upgrades for a good while. Have enough CPU, GPU power and RAM to last a gen or two. At least until upgraditus hits again.
