German hardware media HardwareLuxx found in the experience, AMD RX 7900 series of public cards have a defect, the temperature tends to be out of control.

They collated the non-public RX 7900 XTX and RX 7900 XT reviewed by various media and found thatThe maximum difference between the average core temperature, Hot Spot hot spot temperature is generally around 20°C.

In other words, even if the core temperature reaches 80°C, the maximum temperature will still not exceed 100°C and will not trigger an overheat degradation.

However. The core temperature and hot spot temperature difference of the RX 7900 public card reached a maximum of 53°C. At this time, the core temperature was only 56°C, but the hot spot temperature was as high as 109°C, and the latter even reached 110°C on several occasions.

This directly causes the graphics card fan to start spinning furiously, the noise is unbearable, and there is a drop in frequency.

Strangely enough, however, this is not true for every public version of the card, and a few of the non-public versions are a bit on the high side.

It is not clear where the problem lies, is it a design flaw in the public version of the cooler? There is no public version in China, and we can't verify it.

An AMD spokesperson confirmed that the AMD GPU team is investigating this.
