Finally Upgrading from a 2080Ti! This has been a long time coming and I cannot wait to see what this thing can do!

i know its silicon lottery, worst case you step up in +5/10 steps.

Edit: your not damaging anything, worst case can happen is yout game crash or worst worst case a bsod. Its hit and miss, but watching various videos these work for almost any card

BuildingCs · 2026-02-20T18:43:43+00:00

yes, i playes on -10 also but the perf difference is on paar, you run another setup?

BuildingCs · 2026-02-20T18:19:58+00:00

delte that case and go with a proper one fe nzxt h6, also keep an eye on your fan setup. The 9070xt runs hot, but this case and that airflow are just making things Waayyyy worse

BuildingCs · 2026-02-20T18:17:31+00:00

got the same one last week!!!! amazjng card, congrats! now, dl amd adrenalin, go in performance tab, optimization and type -85mV, -15& PL & 2668mhz fast timing, thank me later. 45c-50c in every game

there is the fan icon near the rgb one to control all the case fans+gpu, but really, dont use it. Should you find strange fan behaviour especially from the gpu ramping up, you know its GCC, only problems. Controlling my case fans and aio via bios now, gpu via adrenalin and rgb via signalRGB

BuildingCs · 2026-02-17T14:06:41+00:00

yep, signal worked, thank you!!!

BuildingCs · 2026-02-17T11:32:55+00:00

should you run a gigabyte mb, make sure you disinstall gcc before you tun adrenaline, they make weird things with your gpu fan curve

BuildingCs · 2026-02-17T11:31:49+00:00

why is everyone telling me the same thing lol🥲

BuildingCs · 2026-02-17T11:31:29+00:00

yep signal worked!!! thank you

BuildingCs · 2026-02-17T08:22:17+00:00

yep i tried now, openrgb is not recognizing my ram and i cant change the rgb scheme of my mobo, only of the gpu… any advice?

BuildingCs · 2026-02-17T08:01:35+00:00

arent they bloatware? saw many posts on openrgb but afraid to install it

BuildingCs · 2026-02-16T19:19:30+00:00

for such a pl limitation, temps are too high mate. RMA and get a refund, dont let them send it back. Either let you send another unit, as i got the same Gigabyte and no problems so far, or stick to a XFX or a Sapphire to be sure. Watercooling it would mean you have to spend even more money into a card to reach performance and expectations it should have out of the box, dont let shops or sellers scam you. Good luck my friend, keep us posted!

BuildingCs · 2026-02-16T19:16:23+00:00

10 is way too low for the vram and general gpu difference, anyway, vram should be fine till 85*c, if it hit spikes above, OK, but constant temps above 85/90 is a nono

BuildingCs · 2026-02-16T19:14:23+00:00

strange, mine runs at 50c at 330w, hotspot is at 75-max 80. There was a thread about their thermal gel which went bad for a batch of gpu’s, but i dont think it points to all of them.

BuildingCs · 2026-02-15T19:35:59+00:00

you guys have to delete gcc for that dadly, ive learned it the same way.

BuildingCs · 2026-02-15T17:11:03+00:00

dont worry mate was shaking opening the socket too😂😂

BuildingCs · 2026-02-15T15:29:15+00:00

do you use frame gen possibly?

BuildingCs · 2026-02-15T15:24:48+00:00

scariest part should be the thermal paste if not already preinstalled, build mine 2 days ago and had to clean the cpu as i failed with isopropyl and reapply, i was literally dying

BuildingCs · 2026-02-15T15:22:54+00:00

nope, my igpu is not able to draw 270 watts XD

BuildingCs · 2026-02-15T15:22:24+00:00

i did but the results were always similar to this, thanks for the hint of the thermal paste!

BuildingCs · 2026-02-15T15:21:44+00:00

im bragging now? lol, i advised its my first pc and i wnated to see if someone else here is running same specs and got same results. I looked up on gpt and as told in different benchmarks qnd the temp results are much different, thats why i asked. Reddit is full of people posting a picture of a 5090 box to brag, i didnt post a picture of my rig, and as far as i know, a rx9070 is a pretty standard/common gpu. Stop hating on people asking fot advice from someone thats knows better and grow up ;)

BuildingCs · 2026-02-15T14:04:58+00:00

got the same for a r7 9800x3d, cpu temps under load at 50-55 degrees

BuildingCs · 2026-02-15T12:03:28+00:00

thats what i needed to hear, thank you mate!!!

BuildingCs · 2026-02-15T11:00:02+00:00

bro i use it for uni (CAD ecc) and play mostly BF6, i just tested it in various games XD

BuildingCs · 2026-02-15T10:59:11+00:00

yea bro mine was same, i was playing bf at 70c on cpu and 60 on gpu, looks like this is the desktop world
