Sapphire RX7800XT Nitro+ - Unboxing and Installation

[@krishnaprasath]

i'm looking to buy this card, and you have played my fav game also...i feel you could've given more RGB treatment to your system to compliment the Sapphire Nitro card, very nice video.

[@khorneflake5943]

@@krishnaprasath I have a led strip that came with the sound card, but never bothered to use it.

Getting the 7900xt pulse, the Nitro is too expensive in my country

[@Blu3Mj0ln1r]

Opinion after 4 months? I am mainly curious about the stability of the drivers. Getting good, stable performance in games or getting crashes, bad performance etc?

[@khorneflake5943]

I had constant flickering, while having vids on both of my screens, on any driver coming late last year. I switched to some experimental drivers, back in the day, that were used to test AMD Fluid Motion tech, and it seemingly fixed all of my problems, but after a while I had Quake 2 falling apart, and my whole system started behaving unstable. I downloaded newer version of that experimental driver, and since then I have no more issues. Occasional flick while playing games and having a vid playing on the other screen, but nothing biggy. I didn't try any of the drivers from this year, and this Fluid Motion driver matured to the full version in the meantime. That's how I roll, if I get a stable driver I don't touch anything unless some game forces me to....

@@khorneflake5943 Dude mine 7800 xt has stopped showing rgb after 6 months, Have processed for RMA because there is a chance they will give me new card, many users are facing the same issue ...rest the card is working great, they had same problem in 6000 series gpu as well,,, I still feel that RMA is not worth it just for rgb , but it hurts

[@khorneflake5943]

@@gurpindersinghmuttar mine still works, but if it dies I would hardly bother to RMA just for the RGB. Less glow in my room while I'm trying to sleep...

@@khorneflake5943 even i dont wanted to go for the rma , but the saphire said they will mostly give me a new seal pack box it is just 6 months old, so took a chance .. if the rma card dont survive long will never trust the saphire or any brand RMA(as it will mostly be used/refurbished) I really wanted to see if any newly purchased card kept in good condition can survive 7-8 years that chance now i have missed

[@jdcasanasr]

You won't regret it!

[@daonedollarguy7669]

Niceeeeeeeeee!!!! what GPU model you have before 7800xt?

[@khorneflake5943]

RX6800... After 3 years it started blackscreening, so I needed a replacement asap. Otherwise I would still use it till next gen.

[@LostSoul-TeemoMain]

Just out of curiosity when it black screened did it have issues connecting to display on reboot? I've been finding my old computer has been doing that lately when i play games. This started during the KZbin ADblock war when they throttled pcs with adblock installed. It'll Crash Video TGU Error then restart itself and display will not power back on, I have to power it on and off a couple dozen times to get it working again. Started making a new PC cause was not sure if its the GPU or something else. Plus it wouldn't of ran Dragons dogma 2.@@khorneflake5943

[@cameltoeinspector6015]

Crysis 3 still wrecking GPUs 11 yrs later

[@khorneflake5943]

Yes, it was ahead of its time in that regard. I mean, today's GPUs are running it great, but it scales great with the hardware. I still remember having two Vega 64s and used to have exactly the double performance comparing to a single card. You can always run the game to test the hardware.

[@SlickNick19]

Looking to upgrade to this gpu. Coming from a 3800x and 2060 super. Would you recommend this gpu still over the 4070?

[@khorneflake5943]

Well, I personally always preferred Radeons, especially because they always gave me more for the money, particularly in VRAM. For the comparison with 4070 it has 4GB more, and even 16 nowadays gets close to maxed at 4k in certain games. If you prefer having better RT you might go with the nV, but there's still that weird non-standard power connector... Although, I'm not sure if all models are like that.

[@pavelburov8903]

на пакете что, нет пломбы??? Is there no seal on the package???

[@khorneflake5943]

There's a seal on the package, but not in the plastic wrap of the card.

Hi! How is the RGB Strip holding up now? I have seen quite a few people claiming issues with dead RGB strip. Really want to get this version of 7800XT but quite concerned about the RGB issue. Thanks!

[@khorneflake5943]

*looks through the case window* Yep, still works.

[@dalheplay]

Threadreaper is not a good CPU to push the RX 7800XT. But its a nice card dude. Congrats! 👌

[@khorneflake5943]

Well, its an older gen now, for sure. I bought this platform originally to use two Vega 64s properly, had a 1900X. Later on I upgraded to this one, and its the farthest in terms of CPU generations thats supported on this X399. I'm really happy with the performance still.

[@dalheplay]

@@khorneflake5943 it performs good, but as i told you before, cant push the 7800XT to high. But if its good for you to play that way, its whats really matter man. If i was money to buy a new card on a old CPU i was ok with for me cause i play at solids 60. I just comment to tell my opinion, not to "Blame" or something else 🙂 but your system was a beast years ago yeah, and for me still, for work and gaming, but with a litle limitation.

I have sapphire rx 7700xt nitro+ and I can see the led's, I think thats because I didn't connected the 5V cable. I hope this will fix that.

[@khorneflake5943]

Well, back in the day I grew sick of having to get my case in the hands to the local service, or waiting for that busy friend who knows stuff, and started doing it on my own. Started with simple stuff like OS reinstalls, changing RAM sticks, and storage drives, and eventually moved to the GPUs and CPUs. Now I'm assembling my own PCs, or for the others.

Well, I'm usually using two different 8-pins, instead of one cable splitting into two 8-pins. You still don't do anything wrong, but I'm used to this setup ever since I had two Vega64s.
