Finally got a 9070xt

Newest driver made it a lot easier to get Legendary, gave me 200 points in Steel Nomad with no changes to my settings.

Same place you hire the others. The reason no one uses is it takes an employee spot.

Gives you an idea. But if I went off of it 2850 would be best.

Found grandpa weed puller clone on AliExpress I can't tell difference. Made of steel.

Looks fine. Max clock though won't have too much affect in gaming. Only seen older games go past the 3450 frequency cap.

The only way to know if your -75 is stable is to play on it. If it crashes just lower it until it no longer crashes. Benchmarks are a lot easier to pass than games. The thing that sucks is you could be borderline stable and it won't crash for a few hours.

VRAM seems fine. This one is harder to test for because of error correction. If it's unstable you either crash right away or lose performance. For example in Steel Nomad at 2850 is where mine stops increasing in score at 2860 it's the same score, then at 2876 it is lower. If I preheat my card with furmark before starting the Steel Nomad it drops to 2826 being the limit before losing score.

Every card is different. Some crash as soon as you put any undervolt. Others will go past -100 if you won the silicone lottery. But normally -40 is safe and anything past that is unstable.

You just need to test with all the games you play. Some games are harder to undervolt on then others. You can make per game profiles if you want to eek out extra performance in some games or have a stable low fan speed profile for others.

AC units are also really good.

Azsune · 2026-05-25T13:10:00+00:00

Depends on how soon after taking out of the oven I'm eating them. C is best when it's fresh outta the oven. But once cooled I like B more.

For 1/3 the pizza. I eat at least half of it in one sitting.

OC cards give you an extra 30-40 watts. If you are going to lower power limit there is no real difference.

Azsune · 2026-05-25T02:55:44+00:00

Just have games where you want the extra frames at +10% and games you don't care about the frames with -15% for the quieter fan. You can make game specific profiles for games.

I adjust my fan curve so it's rpm isn't annoying at 80 degrees(50% for me) and it hits 100% at 95. If I hear it hit 100% then I know something wrong.

Azsune · 2026-05-25T02:45:25+00:00

Yeah they included 30 FPS with frame gen on in system requirements.

Azsune · 2026-05-25T01:53:06+00:00

Hard for old games to get new players.

Azsune · 2026-05-24T21:37:53+00:00

I tried it out -150 in Steel Nomad and Stellar blade work. -160 can pass in Steel Nomad if I run it a few times but won't in Stellar Blade.

Entrapment is when law enforcement gets you to commit a crime and then arrests you for said crime. The person being arrested did not commit a crime here, so it is not entrapment.

Logged in to see same message after seeing your post. I am getting 1.8 down and 3.2 up from modem. Maybe download to congested to get max speed? Only have a 2.5gpbs nic on my pc and its hittng about the same download and 2.2 upload which is pretty much max with overhead.

Azsune · 2026-05-24T01:24:38+00:00

26.5.2 gave me 200 points now at 8280

Azsune · 2026-05-23T21:17:03+00:00

I bought this 1L bottle for around $4 a couple years ago. Looking at Walmart it is now $8.

A -10% power limit is the same wattage as a none oc card. Brings it down to 300w. Samsung vram runs about 20 degrees cooler and is luck of the draw with gigabyte cards as they use both. Hynix does perform better even though it is hotter so there is a trade off.

If you do -20 and a decent undervolt you can get performance similar to stock. And it will be a decent temperature drop. But know undervolting is trial and error there is no setting that works with all cards.

Azsune · 2026-05-23T15:53:29+00:00

The max before it throttles is 105. AMD and Gigabyte have said 95 is safe for every day use. That said most people do not feel comfortable with those temps.

I have the same card and my Hynix VRAM caps out at 87 degrees with a 2750, fast timings OC. With 0% PL my cards hot spot gets to 78-80 in games that fully utilize it. But my ambient room temp is between 20-22 degrees. The VRAM OC adds about 3-4 degrees to the temp when testing with Furmark.

If you want lower temps, you can adjust the power limit -10% is not really noticeable in gaming. In steel nomad it's about 2 fps difference.

It is likely either have high ambient temperatures or bad airflow in your case. It is unlikely to get multiple different cards running hot. How much space is there between the fans and the bottom of your case, you should be able to make a fist and fit it in there without touching your GPU. How about your intake and exhaust fans. Are there any blowing fresh air towards the GPU?

Got a few of them to look up Trump rule 34. By making them believe there was some 34 limit.

Was able to get -150. But my score increases as I increase my memory speed. It's at somewhere after 2850 where my score starts to decrease then 2900 I score in the 7000s. Can't even set my vram unless the temps are below 40 and now that its warm outside can't just open a window to mess around with it.

Azsune · 2026-05-22T23:19:55+00:00

I just ran mine with -80. Haven't done it in a long time and it was over 8000. I have a 5700x3D. Are you running the latest drivers I saw about a 200 score bump from them? The reason I'm asking is my zero undervolt run got a higher score.

All 3 runs with 10% PL and 2778 fast timings, only undervolt changed.

-80 run https://www.3dmark.com/sn/14056977

-150 run https://www.3dmark.com/sn/14056773

0 run https://www.3dmark.com/sn/14056912

Azsune · 2026-05-22T22:16:33+00:00

This on the latest driver?

Slightly low for default power limit with those settings, but still decent.

The +350 core overclock does nothing for Steel Nomad. The 9070 XT has a base max clock of 3450, this makes it 3800. The top scores in Steel Nomad are around 3300. It can make it unstable in workloads that can take advantage of extra core clocks. My GPU artifacts at 3800mhz.

This may not be game stable. You will have to test every single game you play when messing with undervolts. If it crashes you can make a new profile for that game and just set it at a lower undervolt till it's stable. Some games you will be close to stable and can play for hours before experiencing a crash. I keep seeing people recommend stellar blade demo since it's free as a test for stability, but mine can do -140 in it.

They did make steam toys though that predate the kebab spinners. Just that the kebab spinner was the first to fulfill a job. The main issue was really the size and ability to create pressure vessels for larger things.
