ASUS Intros Radeon RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT Dual OC Graphics Cards

[btarunr]

ASUS updated its AMD Radeon graphics card lineup with the introduction of the Radeon RX 7800 XT Dual OC and RX 7700 XT Dual OC. This is an interesting development, given that the company only had TUF Gaming series custom-designs of the two GPUs at their early September 2023 launch. The company continues to lack any ROG Strix series products based on the RX 7800 XT, RX 7700 XT, and the RX 7900 series. The two new Dual OC series cards are positioned below the TUF Gaming products, and predictably, share a common board design for the RX 7800 XT Dual OC and the RX 7700 XT Dual OC.

The new Dual OC common board for the RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT is just about 2 slots thick (or 2.2 slots to be specific). It is 27.9 cm long, and 13.39 cm tall, or about an inch taller than what constitutes "full height." Its cooler features an aluminium fin-stack heatsink that's ventilated by two 100 mm Axial Tech fans backed by dual ball bearings, webbed impellers, and idle fan-stop. The card draws power from two 8-pin PCIe power connectors. With its OC Mode enabled (via software), the RX 7800 XT Dual OC offers a Game clock of 2254 MHz and 2565 MHz Boost clock (vs. 2124/2430 MHz reference). The RX 7700 XT Dual OC, on the other hand, offers 2239 MHz Game clock and 2599 MHz Boost clock with its OC Mode enabled (vs. 2171/2544 MHz reference). The company didn't reveal pricing.

They joined the party when party had been over, I guess.
Who would really care after realising RDNA 3 is quite a failure...

Wow TUF only till now, and adding dual cards months later, no higher level variants, can tell Asus was super excited about 7800/7700, about as excited as everyone else I guess.

And remember, folks - there is no such thing as GPP (there are no top models from Asus on AMD chips... just because!).

Radeon 500, Rumor NVIDIA GPP: Meet ASUS AREZ For now, this is just a rumor, but our information comes directly from ASUS. Apparently, ASUS will launch a new AREZ brand for

If Asus is an Nvidia GPP partner, and it wants to continue to use Nvidia GPUs in its ROG [Republic of Gamers] branded video cards, computers, and laptops, it can no longer sell any other company's GPUs in ROG products. So if Asus want to keep building Nvidia-based ROG video cards, it can no longer sell AMD-based ROG video cards, and be a GPP partner.

RDNA3 is doomed, AIBs are not enthusiastic about releasing high-end variants (on 78xt/77xt and lower models), Asus Dual looks like they are using the same cooler on RTX dual models.

They took a huge amount of time to bring some common sense to this upper midrange GPUs. Now they should start to get them cheaper too.

I'd be interested in the 7800 XT Dual if I didn't already have the Sapphire Pulse. They should have brought these into the market at release, with all the free game goodies that were offered back then.

yeah this has been common practice for years now, have you been living under a rock?

Even ASUS was forced to make some N32 models since they sell too well for them to lose a piece of the cake...

Yep. Surely most (if not all) of us have heard what a disaster the Asus Strix 5700 XT was for this very reason (repurposed cooler originally made for Nvidia cards). I even had the "pleasure" of owning one.

Forget these.
Get Sapphire, XFX and Powercolor.

I don't know how good (or bad) these will be, but I couldn't be happier with the Sapphire Pulse 7800 XT, that's for sure.

Hey we got the same one =)

 

[watzupken]

I suspect the reason may be due to the fact that Nvidia is not supplying enough GPUs to the retail space. After all, Nvidia is making a lot of money selling AI hardware, so why allocate resources to make consumer level GPUs. With insufficient supply, and dwindling demand, it makes sense to try and produce cheaper AMD models to attract buyers.

Asucks harder and harder every week. How much for this 7700XT, $500?
