I can see watercooled cards being the future. With the size of coolers needed now surly its the cheaper option to slap a waterblock on them. Would like to see "pre built" water cooling also. So you buy a unit with rad, block, res, and they come with 4 pipes 2 for the cpu and 2 for the gpu. Just plug and play quick connect/disconnect. I know this already exists but i can see it becoming a standard with every PC.

It looks awesome! For me though, with that difference in price and the fact it is a strictly water cooled card, there should be a higher power limit than it has or at least the ability to increase it higher than it does without having to mod the bios. Personally the "unleashed" bios should have a bigger difference than it does. Other than that it looks to be a great card!

I really like PowerColor's Devil logo. It's so simple and clean.

I went all out this time and bought a PowerColor 7900XTX LE and to be fair Im over the moon with it and its the quitest card I have ever had. I go into the Amd software and set it to balanced mode and the hot spot never goes over 89c with the fans at around 1700rpm.

@4fiHysteria byskie needs to have a block available to be able to use them. Right now they don't even have a 7000 category on their own website. They have one for preorder at 194. Ekwb at least has 7900 blocks available to buy and ship out now. Byskie's one block that I saw was for the sapphire nitro +. That card starts at 1200. Add the 200 for the byskie block and you are at 1400, same price as the liquid devil without the hassle of needing to install the block yourself. Also, I didn't mention that it came with the loop leak test kit. 30 bucks right there. Now I know not everyone will use that, but it is added for free. Don't get me wrong, I get that most of the time buying a pre-blocked card costs more than doing it yourself. In this case, purchasing in the US, the liquid devil makes a lot of sense because the cost of the card and block is comparable to buying the base card and base block itself. Most budget blocks that are out for the 7900xtx are for reference only. If you want an aib block your options are limited. I didn't see a heat killer block in my search, same with byskie until recently with their preorder of the sapphire nitro + block. Ekwb is a reliable brand that you can generally always trust the quality of their product. It isn't unreasonable to consider them as a gold standard of the industry. They are the only ones that I have seen with more than one aib block. Availible now, they have the Asus tuf and reference cards with the red devil cards launching at the end of March early, April. They are also the only brand that I've seen that actually has a tab for the 7000 series gpu. Not trying to shill for ekwb but when it's been 3 months since the launch of the card, and you plan on making a waterblock for the card maybe you should have a tab on your website to advertise that you are in fact going to sell blocks for that line. Edit: never heard of Optimus and just looked at their stuff, they don't even make amd card blocks, so why bring them up?

Hey Roman, had you considered for your WireView thing having the display press-fit into connectors similar to how the Raspberry Pi CU does attachment to other boards? It would permit use of the same display unit across multiple power boards so that less material could be required overall. If I am wrong about this, I am sure your audience will let me know.

I wonder if you could improve the coil whine using the same trick that CRT manufacturers used in the 80s and 90s: potting them in wax, or adding glue to the sides. Back then the reason for the whine was the horizontal beam deflection transformer being driven with a sawtooth wave at 15.6kHz. Would be interesting to see you add some hot glue to the sides of the inductors on a card with loud coil whine and see if it reduces it significantly. You could also try something more permanent like epoxy or cyanoacylate, although you'll probably want to try those on a cheaper card than this one!

1060mV +15%PL GPU-2850 Mem-2800 was the end stable result with a reference with 2pci-e on water. Mine pulls on average 325w during games. I think the 7900xtx just works so well with water cooling.

I wanted the standard Red Devil RX 7900 XTX. They are over $2000 NZD though (about 1200 euro). $2K knowing it will be superseded so quickly made me hesitate. I went cheap and got a Red Devil 6750XT new for a little more than half what they were on launch. It'll do for now. I also went cheap and recently upgraded my 3700x to a 5900X that was discounted, instead of going 7000 series. I'll wait for the next Zen gen to see if it is any good. I only play a little ESO at 4k, so do not need a supercomputer (it's plenty for my digital audio workstation stuff too). I sold the 3700X to my nephew for an extra large pizza delivered. I have to pull it apart, though. I put my M2 NVMe drive in the easy to get to slot. Using that slot makes my GPU run PCI-E 8x3, instead of 16x. I doubt it hurts, but it still bothers me. Now I have saved a bunch of money I can catch up on all the electric guitar stuff I need to buy, mod, and maintain etc, e.g., stainless frets on my Strat, or a new USB audio interface etc. There's always something huh?

Great video - whats the difference between the Powercolor red devil air cooled bios and the water cooled bios?

Great video as always. Not that it matters but your clock speed comparison graph has wrong Y axis label.

This card looks beautiful

Where van you buy the 2x8p version of wire view? I love how it looks. I wonder what would have happened with this card if you lowered the target voltage like 50-100mv.since since you are still power limited it would be very interesting to see if you can hit 3000MHz+ with the low temps it might be possible. The clock curve will be steeper. Just like with RDNA2 you would want to stay below the power limit on RDNA3 to keep the clockspeed predictable and constant looking at what the cards I tested could run with the stock MBA cooler and power limits 3GHz should be possible with this card if you tweak it to the limit by also Undervolting it a little.

One thing that can also be improved is location for water entry/exit into the water block. Waterblock's slot size or length in most cases isn't issue will it fit insade smaller cases, but problem is width. My question is why not separate those entry/exit points by moving water entrance to top left corner, and exit to bottom right corner, that way even if GPU is vertical mounted or regular, water can have natural flow. + Width of card is reduced.

@antoniocepaj7544

Жыл бұрын

Also if they added one more power connector, why wouldn't be possible to have them put at end of GPU, instead of traditional way on side ? That way it would even further reduce width of GPU.

Cant wait for a video on this card with a shunt mod C:

I came from Red Devil 6900XT on which I put an Alphacool block. The upgrade path competition was between Liquid Devil 7900XTX and iChill Frostbite RTX4090. Went for the latter due to 2x the RT performance, better upscaling and Frame Generation. The price difference in Asia was only 250€ so it made sense. Frostbite has a 450W PL, however it can still be OC'd around 7% by upping the voltage to 1.1mv, and the clocks stay at 3.065ghz consistently at +130mhz core, memory did a solid +800mhz, passing the Port Royal stress test of 30 loops. Temps stay under 63C at worst case scenario, hotspot 75C, most of the time 45-55C core and 55-65C hotspot. No coil whine after the first two weeks of screaming like a pig.

I had to open mine up to clean it (never using coloured coolant again) and to get to most of the screws I had to destroy the nice metal covers on the front, now they are all bent and kinked, there's no way I'm going to get them flat and pretty again, and underneath them was lots of now ugly glue.

What are the port sizes? G1/4? I assume the same as the standard EK block?

3:30 how can he tell about the flow direction from what we’re seeing here? How can he tell it’s wrong? Would appreciate a reply. Ty.

Hello Sir, where can we buy the watt meter you use on the pci-e connector? Thank you

what about undervolting this card.... or is that not a thing, like will you get lower temps at the same clock?

What's the difference if any between the red devil with ek block and the liquid devil?

I'd love to have the resources to test if having 32MB of additional L3 cache on die, along side the 96MB of L3/L4 on the MCM would significantly increase performance over the current RDNA3 design. There must have been a reason AMD put the 3D cache on top of their CPUs instead of the much cheaper, and cooler IO die, i feel like this is the reason RDNA3 acts so slow, because it has to go off-die to get the cache.

Hotspot deltas seem comically high for this gen. If you can, I'd love to see if Honeywell PTM7950 allows for a much lower GPU hotspot delta relative to the other reading. On my Sapphire Nitro+ I was able to get as low as a 12-15c delta where here it looks closed to 20-25c.

On stock settings my 7900XTX Red Devil had juncture temps of up to 98C. I had to up the maximum fan % to 75% from its stock 45% or whatever.

On every I card owned the last couple years, I replaced the standard paste with liquid metal from TG. That meant a world of difference on the overall die temp, but a massive drop in hotspot temps. On idle my watercooled Powercolor RX 6900 XT Red Devil Ultimate hotspot is now 2 degrees above ambient, where my gpu die itself is ambient(water) temperature. Even in gaming the hotspot never reached above 54 degrees and in benchmarking it never got over 72 degrees.

pcb looks almost identical to the upper 6000 series cards from powercolor, fan header, switch, led headers power stages all in the same spot as my red dragon 6800xt, only real diff I can see is the extra 8 pin and the capacitors I assume are on the back and are the solid type instead of electrolytic the same as the 6900xt red devil

Quick note, in the video when you are showing graphs of frequencies, the Y-axis reads "Power Draw in W", it took me a few blinks to reset my brain and figure out that this doesn't mean I need a 3 kilowatt power supply :')

I wish they sold this as a block for the red devil, it looks so much nicer than the normal waterblock

I’m confused; this is a Red Devil but with a water block preinstalled and thus it’s sold as the Liquid Devil.

It’s not the same look on the block. I understand what he’s saying. I’m just mad that ek hasn’t sent my red devil block it yet after delaying the pre order delayed twice.

I bought the Red Devil limited edition, kinda wishing I had waited for this release lol.

The Unleashed BIOS clock was 3915 mhz and the OC was 3940 mhz. Apparently Unleashed means Silent/Power Saving in terms of clock speed.

This is the the gpu I wanted but got the asrock aqua 7900xtx. Is there anyway you could do a comparison between the two also there is quit alot of price difference 1300 for aqua vs 1700 red devil is it really worth the extra
