Amd Radeon R9 200 Series Graphics Card Update

First graphics card upgrade in eight years. My old card (Radeon RX580) was creating a 54% bottleneck within my PC. Upgraded to a 3060 12g v2 and have seen a marked performance increase. Which is to be expected when making a three generation jump in graphics cards. No longer getting a bottleneck.

I have bought 4 APCs over the past decade and they have all lasted longer than the specs would suggest. I bought this for a computer w/ a Radeon R9 280 GPU which it can handle (loads exceed 500 watts). I really like the LCD screen on the device because it can display load and event information quickly and conveniently.

Runs any game I choose at full graphics along with my AMD 6700 graphics card. I previously had the 3900X processor and it was the bottleneck in my system so I upgraded and now no bottleneck.

Upgrading from a 3080FE, and this card has got me where I wanted to be, a solid 144fps on my 3840x1600 monitor in pretty much everything. This AIB card has 3x8pin power connections and a massive heatsink which allows it to OC very well, thermals are never a problem as long as it has room to breath. Some things to note: Linux users - this card works well, BUT you need mesa 22.3+ and llvm 15+, as well as the latest firmware from the kernel git repo. As of this review, that means it won't work ootb on pretty much any distro. I updated an existing Arch install using nomodeset and 3 to boot to the shell and install the needful. Xorg and Wayland work fine. This process will get easier as distros update and drivers mature, but for now, don't just assume AMD == 100% linux support. MMO players: For players of GW2, FFXIV, WoW, etc, be aware that even a 5900X will be CPU bound in most cases, so while you might get 250+ FPS in Thavnair, you can expect 60-80 in Limsa Lominsa. I'll be pairing this with a 7950X3D if and when it comes out to help with this. Windows users: Make sure you are using the latest drivers from AMD, they are specifically made for the 7900 series and need to be downloaded manually for now, I didn't see the update from the AMD driver app. While I expect the card will get even better over time as drivers get better (AMD was kind of behind the launch curve here) , don't buy a promise. That said, even if it never gets any better, I am still happy with my purchase.

Just installed it will a AMD Ryzen 5 3600 CPU and Radeon rx 580 gpu. Haven’t had any issues and it has been running smoothly and fast. No complaints at all.

I upgraded from an AMD Radeon Pro WX 9100 to Radeon Pro VII. I can tell the difference right away, although my system has a few outdated parts now, this is an excellent step forward to upgrading my entire system.

This AMD W5500 is Great the graphics are outstanding

This graphics card delivers notable improvements over the GTX series I was using previously with my ASRock B450/ac motherboard with AMD Risen 5 3600 6-core 3.6GHz machine. Raytracing and other improvements produce better graphics in games like CP2077 without any video lag. Images and effects process quickly and reliably in Photoshop. Performance with the GTX 1660 Super that I used previously was not bad, but ever advancing software required an advance in hardware, too. This card seems like it will meet my needs with this PC for another 3-5 years.

this is one of the best graphics card

I could not be more pleased with my purchase, but be aware if you are upgrading, the mark uses a different memory card than the rebel series and you have to update your photoshop for it to work with raw images from the mark, so there were added costs and as a hobbiest, it got very pricey.
