My New GPU

I'm so happy. My new GPU arrived yesterday, and so far I have had zero issues with the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT.

The box was really clean looking and the way it opened was pretty cool.

I appreciate the red fins on the heatsink. It just makes everything look even better, and thankfully this model has no RGB.

This GPU has been perfect for replacing my old one since they both are the same size. Hopefully it serves me for many years.

That clean of a card deserves some pretty red extensions...

I have a new gen CPU and MB. But refuse to pair it with a 6000-gen card and can't afford the new 7900 xtx and ddr5 ram right now. I will be patient but deep down, I am not patient at all and want one!! lol Awesome card!!! @cpurpe91

Have you tried asking your wife to get you the 7000 series GPU for Christmas?  


As Albert Einstein said, "I could have done so much more with a Big Al's Computer!".

Oh yes, I will be putting out little hints and maybe leave a flyer in her purse. lol

You earned it.  Why don't you like RGB lighting effects?

I love RGB but I hate having more than two RGB programs running at once. That is why I configured ASRock Polychrome and then uninstalled it. Quick pointer, Polychrome does nothing while iCUE is open.

Overall looks nice except the 5700x which's gonna bottleneck your 7900 XTX to hell.

I'm working on getting together an AM5 build but it will take time to save up.

Looks cleannn! Grats on the upgrade, my friend! Which CPU is on your upgrade list?

It will depend on when I get everything together. I will take any R7 AM4 CPU. I'm planning on staying with AM4 until I absolutely need to upgrade, that way I can save up and just buy the platform all at one time.
