Reply to comment by Creepus_Explodus in AMD says a “limited number” of 7900 XTX GPUs have a thermal throttling problem | Owners of cards with throttling problems are encouraged to contact AMD support. by chrisdh79
So what's the problem here with those AMD GPUs? The GPU overheats and it gets damaged? The GPU throttles too fast even tho it was not hot?

Essentially, yes. It's a protection mechanism for the GPU to prevent overheating, so it slows down to reduce temperature. Stuttering can have other causes though, so it's just an indicator that thermal throttling may be occurring. To actually validate it, you need some way to monitor the GPU temperature under load. You can enable an overlay in Radeon Software that shows your hardware stats during gameplay, or use some other software like GPU-Z or HWInfo.

A lot of people can't be retired as early as they wish. It's sad. Work till the end I guess.

So, if it gets too hot too fast and it lags, that means it's thermal throttling?

Radeon Software has hardware monitoring built in. If your junction temperature reaches 110 degrees C, your card is thermal throttling. When this happens, the clock speed of the GPU gets cut back significantly which shows as stuttering in gameplay.

I called this like 3 days ago ... team Green was having NONE OF IT.
Now they look dumb for trying to equate it to Nvidia's issues.

Fry some eggs on your gpu while gaming. If you don't get food poisoning, your 7900xtx gpu is toasty and it's time for rma.

Yeah. I am top 1-2% in income and thinking 2x about upgrading my 4 year old TV or a new espresso machine (Jura). Granted I am in one of the most expensive cities in US with multiple kids (and thinking about their college). That's the other thing, top tier private university is insane amount of money in US (it's like 60-70k usd not including anything else per year now)... Retirement is still a while away, but also thinking about that...

I had a buddy that dated a dominatrix that was in to water sports. Just buy a camera like her and people will pay you to analyze it themselves.

i'd rather get my family some electric scooters, some bikes, and maybe a fucking moped with the left over money for the soon to be graduate holy fucking shit man.

Reminds me of that scene from Benchwarmers where they’re at Mel’s mansion and Gus (Rob Schneider) goes to use the urinal and it says “a chemical analysis of your pee shows you’d better stop eating all that fast food, or you’re going to die”.

The electric motor assist on uphill and downhill seems more useful than any of the other features.
But I wonder how much it weighs, people want to be able to collapse their strollers and put them in the car, and they are often heavy enough without the electric motor and batteries.

Why not just put a steering wheel in it, send the kid out and stay home.

Don't know why, but I read that title as "self-destructing stroller". Got to the word stroller and was like, nope, not right, let's try that again brain.
