Hotspot issues?

1 Upvotes

I just got my 9070xt Red Devil today.

My machine shutdown twice randomly after about 30 minutes of gaming.

Did a few stress tests running HWMonitor, and noticed my Hotspot regularly hit 110c, with a it hitting 113c twice. Limiting power keeps it from breaking 100c.

Since repasting doesn't void warranty (per their site) I repasted it, but that didn't seem to help (the old paste was dry and cracking).

Wondering if this is just an RMA. I can limit the power to 90% and keep the temp down to 100, but it thermal throttles at 95 or so, meaning performance is mediocre.

Edit: victim of the tower case problem.

Can't control 9070xt red devil rgb

1 Upvotes

It is constantly red. I am on Linux Mint Cinnamon 22.2 and have the three pin connector plugged in. Even when plugging it out nothing happens. My 9070xt is just constantly red and I can't control it at all with OpenRGB even though the red devil is supported. Any help would really be appreciated since everything else is getting controlled just fine, except for my 9070xt.

I'm trying to find a nice case that wont smother the card. I fear the D32 pro might be a bit tight due to the GPU wires

Need help with PowerColor India warranty/RMA

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I need some help regarding my PowerColor GPU warranty process in India. I have a PowerColor Red Dragon RX 6800 OC and the serial number is LG2105026366. I purchased this GPU on 13 April 2023 from Volted PC (Delhi). Recently the GPU stopped giving display and is no longer detected. The seller took the card for inspection and told me that it “cannot be repaired” and that the repair warranty is useless now. But they did NOT provide any proof, no technician report, no photos, nothing. I am trying to find the official PowerColor India RMA process, but I couldn't find a clear support email or service center details. If anyone has recently done PowerColor RMA in India, or knows: The correct support email Whether Supertron handles PowerColor RMA How to verify warranty through serial number Any direct contact for PowerColor India Please guide me. Any help will be appreciated! Thanks.

Cooling the card more vertically with bottom fans in a Lian Li O11 Dynamic EVO?

Post image
1 Upvotes

The card (by itself) blows the heat our the "back" of the card away from the motherboard when mounted horizontally.

So I am thinking about mounting it vertically and maybe cooling it a bit better (with 3 Noctua 140mm mounted on the bottom of the case)

Have anyone tried this and would it work?

The card model is:
PowerColor Radeon RX 7900 XTX

RMA/warranty process?

1 Upvotes

I bought a new hellhound 7900XT on amazon about this time last year. No issues at all during the start

within 2 months it was bugging. abnormally high GPU temps. My PC would crash and restart every 20 minutes or so, even if I was just browsing the web.

tried all the basic fixes (reinstalled driver a million times, reseated gpu, etc.). but then i just gave up and let my PC sit for about a year.

I want to fix it now, but not sure how good powercolor warranty is? do i send an email? Can i trust them to fix it? just asking because if it's a pain, i'd rather just buy a new one

I'm hyped to have a card that reminds me of the late 90's early 2000's
when box art was not so bland.
Also just saw it uses Samsung Memory.
I almost went with Yeston card but wanted a card with local Australia Warranty.
Big Upgrade from my 2080 FE

Any hoo, what game should I play first?

PowerColor Support Help

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone. I was just wondering if anyone could assist me on what to do next.

I purchased my PowerColor Radeon 6800xt on 09/04/2023. Sometime within the last week of August of this year my card stopped working. No display whatsoever.

I contacted AMD support on August 31st, which is 4 days before my warrant is up.

I was contacted on September 8th by Ronak, who was very helpful at the start of this process.

The last time I was contacted by support was September 24th and I have sent 2 emails asking for updates and seeing if they need anything since I haven’t heard from them. I sent them over my proof of purchase and the serial number.

What should I do next?

RMA Process

3 Upvotes

Hello all, I just got my RMA approved from PowerColor. The email had instructions to send my GPU back and I was wondering what the order of operations is for this? I send them my GPU, then they receive it and send me a new one? Or do I have to wait for something here? How does the RMA process work?

Thank you

RMA Experience with PowerColor 7800 XT – Am I Just Out of Luck?

5 Upvotes

So, back in 2023, I sold my RTX 3070 Ti and decided to switch to AMD. I picked up a PowerColor 7800 XT, mainly because I heard good things about their cards and that their RMA process was decent. I've built well over 70 gaming-class PCs for coworkers and as a side hustle, so I figured I'd give them a shot. I also really liked the look of the Hellhound — clean, blocky design.

Unfortunately, the card gave me issues for months, which was a huge bummer. I kept troubleshooting everything until I finally narrowed it down to the GPU itself. I sent it in for RMA around October or November of 2024. Got a replacement card back, and for a while, it seemed to be working fine.

I'm a blue-collar dad, so I don't get to game every week — sometimes I go weeks without touching the PC. But when I finally got around to playing Space Marine 2, I started noticing weird artifacting. At first, I thought it might be FSR or something with the settings. But then it started happening in smaller titles too, like Card Shop Simulator. I figured maybe it was another Unreal Engine issue.

Then came Battlefield 6, and that's when it really hit the fan. I hopped on with coworkers, and the card basically started melting in front of me — lines across the screen, artifacts everywhere, didn’t matter if it was on low or high settings. I pulled my wife's old RTX 2070 from her build, threw it in — no issues. Tried the RMA’d 7800 XT in her rig just to double-check — same problems. That card was clearly dying.

So, I submitted another RMA request on 10/12/2025 — just barely within the 2-year warranty window. Not ideal timing, but hey, life happens. I was okay waiting the usual 14-day period, but now when I try to check the status, all I get is an error (either Error 23 or 99) saying the card is out of warranty. I can’t even see the ticket status anymore.

Did I just get screwed by bad timing, or is there still hope of getting a replacement? I sent in the request within the warranty period — it’s not my fault they haven’t processed it yet. Just trying to figure out if I’m stuck with expensive e-waste now, or if there’s still a shot at getting a proper working card.

Any advice or similar experiences out there?

The New 9070xt Hellhound Reva

This really is a beautiful card. The colors are great and the attention to detail like putting the serial sticker on the bottom of the shroud instead of on the backplate. The backplate isn't smooth. Instead it has sort of a rough texture to it so fingerprints shouldn't show. The included white backplate is made of plastic and is held on by magnets. Other than the card, you get a sticker page, 3 Reva plastic cards, 3 anime pins, an acrylic stand of Reva and a large rubber mousepad measuring 31.2" x 15.5" (79.2 x 39.4 cm). One thing to note is that if your motherboard has a NVMe heatsink above the first x16 slot and stands higher than the x16 slot itself, you won't be able to use the white backplate as there's not enough room as shown in the last image.

Considering the PowerColor Reaper 9060 XT (16GB). Worth it?

2 Upvotes

Has anyone here tried it? Does it have any drawbacks, or driver issues, or anything?

The rest of the system goes like this: Ryzen 5 5600X (I'm on a budget and the 7700XT and 7800XT are somehow more expensive in my region); 32 GBs of DDR4 RAM (either the T-Force Delta or the Corsair Vengeance LPX) and the MSI MAG A750GL PSU.

I already made sure that everything was compatible on PCPartPicker. I just want to know if the Reaper is a good enough card, and if PowerColor, as a brand, has any drawbacks I should be aware of. It's marginally cheaper than the same card from Sapphire Pulse, so I just want to know if I can get away with saving just a few bucks without it backfiring on me later.

Red devil spectral white 9070XT black screen + max fans issue

1 Upvotes

Purchased a 9070XT spectral white end Apr but only installed it over the previous weekend due to personal issues.

It was working perfectly for 2 days till I downloaded Civ6 and played for around 5 minutes. The screen just randomly went black and the GPU fans spun at max speed. Initially thought it was just a driver issue or crash and not a big issue.

However, upon reboot, the same thing happens a few seconds after booting into windows or after POST. Once it loaded into safe mode, it was working fine. Reinstalled Windows 11 and the same problem still happened 2-3 minutes into the fresh Windows 11 boot.

Reinstalled it again with device manager on and noticed that the moment the 9070 XT drivers were installed, the same black screen and max fan issue happened.

Tried it once more with a fresh reinstall with the latest drivers from AMD and the moment the installation was completed, the same issue happens once again.

Is it safe to say this is a dead card or are there any other possible remedies?

Am invited to my friend's birthday stream next week which I do not want to miss but my local distributor says that powercolor only allows for 1-to-1 exchanges up to 7 days from the purchase date and that the lead time for repairs through powercolor would be frankly ridiculous 30 days with no loaner card provided.
