AMD releases statement on Radeon RX 7900 XTX MBA thermal issues

AMD are investigating reports of “unexpected throttling” on AMD RX 7900 XTX graphics cards  

AMD has today released a statement regarding reports of thermal throttling issues on their MBA (Made By AMD) Radeon RX 7900 XTX graphics cards, with AMD confirming that a “limited number of graphics cards” are impacted. 

Radeon RX 7900 XTX users that are experiencing issues should contact AMD support here. AMD’s fill statement is available to read below.

   We are working to determine the root cause of the unexpected throttling experienced by some while using the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX graphics cards made by AMD. Based on our observations to-date, we believe the issue relates to the thermal solution used in the AMD reference design and appears to be present in a limited number of the cards sold. We are committed to solving this issue for impacted cards. Customers experiencing this unexpected throttling should contact AMD Support (https://www.amd.com/en/support/contact-call).

Thermal issues appear to be limited to a select number of Radeon RX 7900 XTX MDA graphics cards. MBA RX 7900 XT GPUs appear to be unaffected, as are custom RX 7900 XTX models from AMD’s AIB partners (ASUS, Gigabyte, Sapphire, XFX, etc).
