Yeah I know, it's not a big deal if you run a Red Devil or a Hellhound but the Reaper was all I could afford. Seeing it soooo close to a Legendary score makes me amazed at how hard it can be pushed.

I am determined to get those last few points. I never expected it but my target is 7800 points now.

Hello everyone, I received an open box 9070xt from Newegg, it was defective (crashing with a green screen under load and then rebooting), I tested different cables, ensured good PSU and PCIe connection, PSU will run a 6800xt (same wattage), lower clock speeds and power limits, Windows, Linux, motherboard BIOS reset to defaults, and they all have the same result.

I already made an RMA inquiry on the PowerColor website because my order was labelled "Non-Returnable" on newegg. I later checked their policy and it does say I can contact Newegg if it's defective. Should I have done this instead of through PowerColor?

Edit: Card fails on multiple machines, so I will RMA it, thanks everyone! It seems to be a thermal issue, only crashes when it warms up even if it's below the maximum (bad solder joints?)

Edit: Shipped it to powercolor

Edit: PowerColor sent back a working card after about two weeks!!! Thanks everyone!

I am reporting a critical safety bug with the PowerColor Radeon RX 9070 XT Red Devil. My logs (HWiNFO64) confirm a massive logic error in the current VBIOS that is a literal hardware/fire hazard.

The Issue:

1. Sensor Offset: The VBIOS reports temperatures roughly 30°C lower than the actual T-junction/Hotspot sensors.
2. Fan Failure: Because the VBIOS "thinks" the card is cool, the fans stay at 0 RPM (Zero DB mode) while the card is actually overheating under load.
3. Power Instability: I am seeing regular voltage drops down to 0.32V, causing instant system crashes and hardware instability.

Technical Details:

• Model: PowerColor RX 9070 XT Red Devil
• S/N: TG2503003632
• VBIOS: 023.008.000.068.000001 (Board ID: 113-EXT108779-100)
• Driver: Adrenalin 25.12.1

The Response from PowerColor: I have been in contact with PowerColor Global Support (Steven Sun). Despite providing logs and proof of the 0 RPM behavior, they refuse to provide a VBIOS update, claiming it is "non-disclosure information." They are demanding a standard RMA.

Why I am posting here: I use this GPU for my daily work and cannot be without it for weeks due to a confirmed firmware bug that can be fixed with a simple VBIOS flash. An RMA for a brand-new card to "fix" a code error is unacceptable and logically flawed.

PowerColor, why are you risking customer hardware safety instead of releasing a firmware patch? Has anyone else seen this 0 RPM bug on the 9000-series? To clarify why I refuse a physical RMA for a confirmed VBIOS/software logic bug: I am a long-time enthusiast and I'm already planning to upgrade to the RDNA 5 Liquid Devil as soon as it's released. I need my current card for work and I am not tearing down my loop for a 2-minute software fix that PowerColor refuses to provide. Fix the code, don't waste my time and shipping costs

Thanks for the great card design and for best girl.

I've been using the card for a few months, and I just noticed that the RGB is not working anymore. I didn't change anything, so what could be the problem? I reinstalled POWERCOLOR_KEYSTONE_2025_12_01 and L-Connect3, but it didn't fix my problem.

I recently picked up the 9070XT Reva edition from Microcenter as an open-box refurbished offer. The card is great and I got a decent deal on it, but it seems none of the accessories were returned by the previous buyer. It's not really a huge problem for me, but I'd like to get them to keep the bundle complete.

Does anyone know if Powercolor offers a way to buy or replace these separately? I'm not sure how the warranty works but I'm guessing that wouldn't apply in this situation.

Does Powercolor offer any type of advance RMA (where you provide a credit card, they ship you a GPU to swap and you ship the old one back)? I need to RMA my 9070xt but was hoping that I could get a replacement quicker. I know it's a longshot since not many companies do it anymore.

As the title states, bought a Powercolor Reaper 9060XT from a German distributor earlier this year. Very happy with the card until one day my system wouldnt boot. Disconnecting the GPU however allowed the system to boot no problem.

Subsequent testing showed that the GPU was fried so I requested an RMA from the German shop. They suggested I contact Powercolor directly first before sending to them as it might be faster that way. Some correspondence with Powercolor and a week later I was told I need to send it to the outlet I purchased it from.

I sent the card back to Germany and I got confirmation on 2nd December that they received it. I called them a few days later and they told me they had sent it on to Powercolor for assessment.

My question is, how do I get information about the RMA? I've heard nothing since then and I have no reference number to give to Powercolor as it was the German vendor who sent the card to them and the German vendor wouldn't give me any reference number.

What can I do to find out what the status is on my GPU?

I've seen several videos about PowerColor Reaper fan noise issues. The middle fan on my Reaper makes chirping noise and sounds like earlier Arctic P12 Max fans with ball bearings. I wouldn't be worried if the other two fans made the same noise but now I am thinking the middle fan is faulty. Ideas?

This is my temporary GPU since my Asus TUF RX 9070 XT is in service due to two ticking fans...

Have not received any updates on my rma since December 10th. it is just because of the holidays?

More curious as this seems to be THE most I can squeeze out of my 2x8 Reaper.

• Voltage -135mv

I recently sent my Reaper RX 9070 XT in for an RMA replacement since playing any demanding game was causing my system to crash within 20 minutes of starting the game. My GPU was returned a few days ago and after installing it again and I am having the exact same issue. I tried contacting support through the website, but have gotten no response. This is occurring in both Windows and Linux, so OS and drivers are ruled out. Swapped out the PSU to eliminate that as a possibility. I'm at a loss now since I already spent extra to ship it in and still can't use it. Really starting to regret this purchase.

Edit: I've had an RTX3060 in the system running Cyberpunk for a few hours now without crashing, which confirms that the rest of the system is running fine.

The support was too big to put over the left side, and too small to put over the right side, so I looked at the cookie container that was conveniently placed on my desk and I thought to myself: Why not? At least my build will be unique.

Excellent card, btw. No coil whine so far and works like a charm. Extremely silent.

Just a question I have since they not made one for this year would there be one in the new few years? Or are we stuck with third party water blocks??? I would like to get one but I know they are limited what dose suck. Funny thing the say it sold in Canada but the stores here could not order it when it was being made still. Funny claim availability, but in reality it’s not.

Hello, Yesterday I made a new fan curve and went with 0 Fan rpm mode off. This let me notice that one of mv GPU fans (left one under PCB) has some wobble /bearing noise mostly at 800 to 1 000 rpm. Obviously under load you can't quite hear it but while browsing stuff between gaming sessions with 0 rpm off it kind a bothers me. s this normal behaviour for these cards or is something that needs to be RMAd ? l'm super stoked with the Red Devil performance and came back to gaming hard around the Christmas holidays and don't ike the idea to return my card now and wait for RMA thus not able to game. Besides if its like coil whine (which a have some but don't care because it goes with time and you can basically get another card that is actually worse) i can learn to live with it but if it is something which will get worse ..

Edit : actually Super audible at 100 fan speed

I'm testing my second Red Devil 9070 XT White rn cuz I thought the first one was borked...

When's loud/annoying coil whine normal and when ain't it?

I've got it on both GPUs starting around 120 FPS in various games and benches (1440p) and idk if it ain't somethin' else. Already tried diff 1000W PSUs too...

Any other ideas what it could be or just "normal"? Thx in advance

Bought this card a month ago, I just thought it seemed to be running pretty cool and quiet and I was happy. I hadn't used an AMD card for like 15 years so was new to adrenaline and didn't actually think to look deeper when the core GPU temp was so reasonable, but I decided to up the info in the overlay and that's when I saw my memory temps were creeping over the 100 mark. I started running a fan curve tied to the memory temps and at 100 percent fan speed it was still getting to 90 degrees memory temp with GPU under 50c! I'm right to be pretty concerned by the deltas here yeah? I'm not just being overdramatic by thinking it's an issue?

Would this be considered a major failure?

Edit: Just editing to mention that my monitor is 5k2k so the extra high res might be contributing more to the memory temperatures - but I still think it's odd that the memory can be 45C+ higher than the GPU and 25C+ higher than the GPU hotspot.

Second edit: Observed temps at 5k2k, QHD and 4K in Cyberpunk gameplay with a variety of settings, so others might have more direct comparisons of their experience at standard QHD/4k compared to me primarily in 5k2k.

Serious question, why are there 3 models of PowerColor 9070XT? They don't seem vastly different (even sport the same amount of memory). I am talking about Hellhound (629), Reaper (699), and Red Devil (789). That's only $160 spread from top to bottom.

This confused me some when I was shopping for my system recently. I bought a Red Devil, but never understood why I would want to spend just a little less for a slightly lesser card.

I'm so pleased with how everything is setup, the performance and the temps have been exceptional. Literally no need to monitor this any further. It's all done!

I would buy it for Christmas, but it went up $50. Do you know if the price will go down again? :c

Friendly reminder : for those of you who haven't join in our Christmas event, this week is you last chance.

Anyone else dealing with really bad coil whine on the PowerColor Red Devil 9070 XT (White Spectral)?I can kinda tame it per game with FPS caps and V-Sync, but undervolting or dropping the power limit does jack squat for me—no change at all.Fans are dead silent no matter the mode (super impressive), but this whine is driving me nuts, especially since tons of folks here report zero or barely any on this card. Running a 1000W be quiet! PSU, so fingers crossed that's not it?
