AMD reportedly denied an RMA request for an RX 7900 XTX card that was hitting a junction temperature of 110 °C with thermal throttling. More importantly, the company called the 110 °C hot-spot temperature “normal” before acknowledging the problem as a genuine issue.
The RTX 4080 will be up for sale starting today. Compared to the RTX 4090, the latest rumors suggest the GPU is in short supply at major retailers. On the other hand, the RDNA 3-based RX 7900 XT and the RX 7900 XTX are expected to have much better stock compared to the RTX 4090 and the RTX 4080.
