Product Information

At the core of the NITRO+ Graphics Cards series are the technologies of the SAPPHIRE PANTHEON Suite ofpermanent features. SAPPHIRE PANTHEON guarantees supreme cooling technology and other distinctfeatures exclusive to NITRO+ graphics cards. Each NITRO+ iconic feature stands as strong and permanent asthe pillars of the PANTHEON. Every NITRO+ Graphics Card guarantees the presence of the stable, reliableand innovative SAPPHIRE PANTHEON suite of features.

As you'd expect for a >300W graphics card, you get triple fans to go along with the large dimensions. Sapphire's latest designs use "angular velocity blade" fans, which are supposed to move more air and last longer than previous Sapphire designs. Sapphire notes that the inclusion of the outer rim helps to improve downward air pressure, by up to 44%, with 19% more airflow. The fans are also 95mm in diameter, compared to AMD's reference design that uses 78mm fans. AMD smart technologies, including AMD SmartAccess Graphics, SmartAcess Storage, SmartAccess Video, SmartShift Eco, and SmartShift Max may require OEM or developer enablement and are available with select configurations only. Select additional AMD hardware is required. For additional information see https://www.amd.com/en/graphics/amd-radeon-rx-laptops. GD-216. Though I was not able to run a reference RX 7900 XTX through my full suite of benchmarks before I had to return it, the temperature results I did get show the Sapphire to be 8°C cooler than the reference model, with much lower noise levels too.The build quality is unreal, the performance from a 6800xt to the 7900xt is unreal, and the cooling at full load is 77 degrees at the junction! The all-new innovative Wave Fin Design working in tandem with our V-Shape Fin Design for GPU Cooling reduces wind friction and centralises the airflow around the GPU to dissipate heat efficiently to produce lower thermal temperatures. The Die Casted Aluminum-Magnesium Alloy Frame enveloping the sides of the PCB help to strengthen the structural stiffness of the shroud to create a strong, scratch resistant and high quality finish that elevates the aesthetic and strength of the graphics card. The NITRO+ AMD Radeon™ RX 7900 Series Vapor-X Graphics Cards are constructed with a Die CastedAluminum-Magnesium Alloy Frame that strengthens the structural stiffness of the shroud and ensuresdurability whilst enveloping the sides of the PCB. Located on top of the frame is the Frontplate Heatsinkwhich overlays the entire PCB to cool the VRM components as a dedicated VRM cooling module to createoptimal heat dissipation for peak airflow and cooling performance. Always liked Sapphire cards, and this one is no exception. I personally buy GPUs mostly on aesthetic (after considering pricing obviously), as performance-wise GPUs of the same series from different brands probably aren't really that different between each other, especially for a casual user like me. I mean, maybe a couple degrees difference in temperature or a single-digit percent in FPS, but honestly not enough for me to feel it. AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) 1 and 2 are available on select games and require developer integration. See https://www.amd.com/en/technologies/fidelityfx-super-resolution for a list of supported games. AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution is "game dependent" and is supported on the following AMD products. FSR 1.0: AMD Radeon™ RX 6000, RX 5000, RX 500, RX Vega series graphics cards, RX 480, RX 470, RX 460, and all AMD Ryzen™ processors with Radeon™ graphics if the minimum requirements of the game are met. FSR 2.0: AMD Radeon™ RX 6000, RX 5000, RX Vega Series graphics cards, and the Radeon™ RX 590 graphics card if the minimum requirements of the game are met. AMD does not provide technical or warranty support for AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution enablement on other vendors' graphics cards. GD-187.

A generously sized heatsink efficiently soaks up heat from the AMD Radeon™ RX 7900 XTX GPU, allowing it to be whisked away by the three Axial-tech fans.With the introduction of the of the Radeon RX 7900 XTX we bring the NITRO+ edition for your consideration. We have taken the incredible technology of the AMD RX 7900 series GPU from AMD and added our own NITRO+ twist to bring one of best premium graphic cards to the market.

The Die Casted Aluminum-Magnesium Alloy Frame enveloping the sides of the PCB help to strengthen the structural stiffness of the shroud to create a strong, scratch resistant and high quality finish that elevates the aesthetic and strength of the graphics card. Overlaying the entire PCB, the die casted Frontplate Heatsink cools the VRM, Memory and Chokes resulting in superior heat dissipation for top-notch airflow and cooling performance.NOTE: Minimum recommended system power supply wattage is based on the specific graphics card and the typical power requirements of other system components. Your system may require more or less power. OEM and other pre-assembled PCs may have different power requirements. The Sapphire Nitro+ offers excellent performance, though as has been the case over the last three generations, it depends on what games you play, and what value you place on certain features. You probably know where I'm going with this. I like the way the 7900XT Vapor-X looks better than those other 2 cards and it is a bit cheaper so I am probably going to buy that. But it's not all bling. The Sapphire Nitro+ is superbly engineered from the ground up, The PCB is more than capable of handling the demanding Navi 31 chiplet GPU, while the cooler does an excellent job, achieving both goals of being cool and quiet.

As of March 2022, Radeon Super Resolution (RSR) is compatible with Radeon RX 5000 series graphics and newer and works with games that support exclusive full-screen mode. AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 22.3.1 or newer is required. For additional information, visit www.amd.com/rsr. GD-197. When the temperature of the GPU rises, the fans on the graphics card speed up accordingly. To aid in rapidcooling and heat dissipation, the new Assistive System Fan Control feature controls the speed of a systemfan to automatically increase at the same time as the graphics card fans to assist in expelling hot air from theentire system faster. The GPU is mounted onto the High TG Copper PCB. Constructed of 14 layers of high-density 2oz Copper PCBwith a high TG [Glass Transition] temperature value PCB to match the power requirements of the GPU andmemory and guarantee mechanical stability of the PCB during operation. The board design uses premiumand efficient compact Ultra High Performance Conductive Polymer Aluminum Capacitors which fullyenables the 20-phase power design of the PCB. The WAVE Fin Design reduces friction when the wind goes into the fin module resulting in a reduction of the wind cut noise.There is a praiseworthy, cutting-edge cooling system with triple slots, 3 x Angular Velocity fans and a 6-pipe heatsink, further ventilated by cutouts in its metal shroud, installed on the Sapphire Radeon RX 7900 XT to keep the temperatures under control, which allows players to enjoy their favourite titles without obsessing over internal temperatures, especially when the graphical settings are turned up to Ultra. Regarding inputs, Sapphire provides 2 x DisplayPort 2.1 ports and 2 x HDMI 2.1a ports. The card's power is supplied via 2 x 8-pin PCIe connectors, supporting maximum power delivery of 375 Watt. Sapphire RX 7900 XT: Verdict and Price UK The radiator has six heatpipes to help carry heat away from the GPU core and VRAM, which again represents a typical design for graphics cards with a 300W or higher TBP rating. The only real improvement would be to opt for a full vapor chamber instead of heatpipes, and that's something the Made By AMD cards use. Alvar Miles Udell said:That's what I was going for. Mainstream and entry level cards have compromises, high end designated cards should only have ray tracing as their compromise (and that's not much of one in many cases). That's what I was going for.
