Nearly 3.5GHz! That power consumption though...
We now have a good idea why AMD chose to restrict the 7900 XTX from reaching its ultimate performance potential. A card pulling well over 600W at nuclear temperatures for stock RTX 4090 performance at best isn't exactly what you'd call a win, and it makes sense that AMD optimized performance per watt over performance at any cost.
Other than being a really cool overclock, these results leave me excited for the future. Well, I'm not excited about cards pulling 700W, but the fact that the GPU itself can sustainably run clocks nearing 3.5GHz without liquid nitrogen cooling is a sign that the underlying architecture is fundamentally capable. It's a good advertisement for TSMC's advanced nodes too!
You get the feeling the RX 7900 is just the first step in AMD's chiplet journey. It's no mean feat to introduce a chiplet architecture with a new interconnect and expect it to be optimized on the first try. AMD's boffins are no doubt taking what they've learned from Navi 31 and applying that knowledge to future generation GPUs. AMD will need to be at the top of its game if it's to compete with Nvidia for the next generation's gaming crown.
