Sapphire Radeon RX 7800 XT PULSE (11330-02-20G)

The Sapphire Radeon RX 7800 XT PULSE is an excellently balanced solution for gamers seeking a mid-range graphics card with high performance and a reasonable price. It is part of the Sapphire Pulse 2023 lineup, where the manufacturer focuses on overclocking capabilities and efficient cooling rather than secondary features like lighting. Based on RDNA 3 architecture, the Sapphire Radeon RX 7800 XT PULSE is equipped with 16 GB of GDDR6 memory and 60 compute units, providing impressive results in modern games.

The GPU is optimized for gaming with high graphic settings at 1080p and 1440p resolutions. For more demanding 4K, Radeon offers a more expensive and powerful model, the RX 7900 XTX, with a 24-gigabyte memory buffer. Among its additional features, support for AMD FSR stands out — it is a free alternative to NVIDIA DLSS for enhancing performance through algorithmic upscaling and frame generation.

The modification from Sapphire is 280 mm in length and occupies 2.5 slots in the system unit. This is a relatively compact graphics card for its category, making it suitable for most cases. The graphics card's cooling system is equipped with two 80 mm fans with alternating blade rotation, a composite copper heat pipe, and a massive heatsink. As practice shows, the cooling system effectively manages heat dissipation from the graphics chip and memory, ensuring stable operation even under loads in the most demanding games.
