This the wildest GPU design I've ever seen! In a recent video from JayzTwoCents titled "This the wildest GPU design I've ever seen!" the spotlight shines on the PowerColor 7900 XTX Red Devil Limited Edition graphics card, a standout in AMD's lineup. The video kicks off after a review of the AMD 7900 XT and XTX, diving straight into an unboxing of the Red Devil, which arrives in a premium package complete with a carrying handle and metal locks.
Key Highlights from the Unboxing
- Premium Accessories: Inside the box, viewers find an impressive array of accessories including a GPU support stick and a magnetic Red Devil eye magnet. The support stick is designed for larger cases, which is beneficial as this card is substantial in size.
- Design and Build Quality: The 7900 XTX Red Devil features impressive engineering with a dual BIOS option (overclocking and silent mode), triple axial fans, and a 3.25 slot thickness. PowerColor has emphasized a custom cooling solution that includes a direct contact copper plate for enhanced thermal management.
- Unique Backplate System: A standout feature is the magnetic backplate system, allowing users to swap designs easily without screws. The video showcases two backplate options: a geometric design and a unique prototype resembling an alien exoskeleton, although the latter may not make it to the final production model.
Performance Insights
The testing results suggest that the PowerColor 7900 XTX Red Devil Limited Edition performs slightly better than the standard 7900 XTX model, occasionally yielding one to two frames per second better in games like Forza Horizon 5 and Gears 5. The card drew about 375 watts under full load, showcasing its potential for higher performance through increased power consumption.
Final Thoughts
Overall, the video encapsulates the excitement around this limited edition GPU. While it competes closely with NVIDIA's offerings, the 7900 XTX Red Devil's customizable features and premium design set it apart. As JayzTwoCents concludes, the market is brimming with compelling GPU options, and while pricing remains a concern, the innovation doesn't seem to be slowing down.
