It has exactly the same configuration as the one I usually use for GPU testing, but there may be a slight difference in total power consumption due to component variance. The BIOS and all settings should be identical to the first system, but this machine is running the English version of Windows 11. All measurements from today\u2019s test were performed on it, so some values may differ from those measured in the previous test.<\/p>\n<p>Reviewers usually test the performance, thermals, and noise of graphics cards on open-air test benches. In such a setup, the system has virtually unlimited access to cool ambient air from the surroundings, and the warm air from the graphics card is quickly expelled into the open air. Inside a case, however, the air volume is much smaller. Once components are installed, it becomes necessary to find a balance, tuning the cooling system so that system fans aren\u2019t too noisy, while still ensuring sufficient airflow through the case. Powerful CPUs and GPUs produce a lot of heat, raising the temperature inside the case, and component temperatures are usually higher than under ideal open-bench conditions. This is why results for clocks, temperatures, and noise in such test setups tend to look better than what you\u2019ll see with the same components inside a PC case.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why graphics cards are tested inside a PC case. For this purpose I chose the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fractal-design.com\/products\/cases\/meshify\/meshify-2\/black-solid\/\">Fractal Design Meshify 2<\/a><\/strong>, featuring one of the most common case layouts and cooling designs. Unlike expensive, oversized cases, its size and price make it suitable for lower- and mid-range GPUs, while still being able to fit and cool even large power-hungry high-end graphics cards. In this setup, using a case with all fan mounts populated lets us compare cards under identical conditions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fractal0000.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fractal0000-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"780\" height=\"439\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fractal001.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fractal001-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"260\" height=\"146\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fractal003.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fractal003-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"260\" height=\"146\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fractal002.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fractal002-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"260\" height=\"146\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>All system fans are set to around 780 RPM.

I opted instead for a top-of-the-line air cooler, the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/en\/noctua-nh-d15-g2-meeting-all-our-expectations-review\/\">Noctua NH-D15 G2 LBC<\/a><\/strong> in an offset mounting configuration, for two main reasons. First, it offers greater reliability and more predictable long-term cooling performance compared to liquid coolers. Second, it has a smaller impact on case airflow than an AIO.<\/p>\n<p>When CPU load increases, speeding up the radiator fans on an AIO cooler can significantly change the airflow inside the case. With an air cooler, higher CPU fan speeds have much less impact on case airflow. The system fans are set to a fixed speed to maintain constant airflow, making it more suitable for comparing graphics cards under similar conditions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/noctua-nh-d15-g2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/noctua-nh-d15-g2-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"780\" height=\"439\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fractal005.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/fractal005-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/noctua001.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/noctua001-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D<\/h2>\n<p>Our graphics card tests run on an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/en\/amd-ryzen-7-9800x3d-top-gaming-cpu-with-mt-perf-boost-review\/\">AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor<\/a>.

But on the test card, no such change was visible or measurable. The most likely explanation is that the manufacturer already raised the power limit from the reference 304 W up to 330 W. And while you can still manually push it up by another 10%, this profile doesn\u2019t apply that change.<\/p>\n<p>It can be assumed that with cards using reference or only slightly raised power limits, this profile would increase the limit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-default-en.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-default-en.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"380\" height=\"306\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-favor-performance-en.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-favor-performance-en.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"380\" height=\"306\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no noticeable change in HWiNFO either, with power limits and clocks looking the same.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-default-hwinfo.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-default-hwinfo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"380\" height=\"761\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-favor-performance-hwinfo.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-favor-performance-hwinfo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"380\" height=\"761\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The same holds true for the following tests, where the differences fall within normal measurement error.<\/p>\n<h2>Cyberpunk 2077, BIOS Quiet<\/h2>\n<p>This is again a run of the Cyberpunk 2077 benchmark with RT Medium settings at 3840 \u00d7 2160 resolution.

A similar extreme reduction is visible in the card and system power consumption charts below, though the performance impact isn\u2019t nearly as dramatic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-power-limit-30-en.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-power-limit-30-en.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"518\" height=\"420\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-power-limit-30-hwinfo.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-power-limit-30-hwinfo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"209\" height=\"420\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Cyberpunk 2077, BIOS Quiet<\/h2>\n<p>The first operating characteristics test was run in the Cyberpunk 2077 benchmark with RT Medium settings at 3840 \u00d7 2160 resolution.

We\u2019ll show a simple way to overclock the GPU both manually and automatically using the basic presets, how to undervolt it, and how to adjust the power limits for overclocking. We\u2019ll also measure how performance changes when we reduce the card\u2019s power draw by 100 W, and we\u2019ll try VRAM tuning.<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Default settings vs. Voltage Offset -100 mV<\/h2>\n<p>Power consumption is tied to voltage. But with high-performance cards, the main limiting factor is usually the overall power limit. Lowering the voltage mostly just shifts the clock\/voltage curve, while the power limit\u2014and thus overall consumption\u2014remains the same.<\/p>\n<p>The voltage offset can be adjusted between -200 mV and 0 mV. I quickly tried lowering it by -200 mV, but the card couldn\u2019t handle it. I then measured at -100 mV, which worked. In HWiNFO, the change in voltage isn\u2019t noticeable when the card is idle.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-voltage-en.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-voltage-en.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"518\" height=\"420\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-voltage-hwinfo.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/amd-software-rx-9070-xt-voltage-hwinfo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"209\" height=\"420\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Cyberpunk 2077, BIOS Quiet<\/h2>\n<p>The first operating characteristics test was run in the Cyberpunk 2077 benchmark with RT Medium settings at 3840 \u00d7 2160 resolution.

The effective clock is also slightly lower\u2014in practice, setting 2850 MHz results in memory running at 2835 MHz (around 22.7 Gb\/s).<\/p>\n<p>In the monitoring of the VRM for memory, it didn\u2019t look like higher memory clocks raised its power draw, nor was there any difference in temperatures.

Most custom settings influence multiple values at once, and some aren\u2019t all that intuitive\u2014for example, lowering GPU voltage doesn\u2019t cut its power draw, but actually overclocks it.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"fancybox image\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/gigabyte-radeon-rx-9070-xt-gaming-oc-11-630px.jpg\" rel=\"gallery\" aria-controls=\"fancybox-wrap\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-226074\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hwcooling.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/gigabyte-radeon-rx-9070-xt-gaming-oc-11-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why I focused on each of these settings individually. Even with just these, you can do a lot\u2014by lowering the power limit, you can achieve significant power savings and undervolt the card with only a small performance impact. Conversely, raising the power limit allows overclocking. Reducing voltage again overclocks the card without increasing its power draw, and the same applies to memory overclocking.<\/p>\n<p>Next time, we\u2019ll take a closer look at how all the settings work together, what can be achieved by combining them, and go into more detail on fan control and card noise.<\/p>\n<script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<!-- responsive -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block;background-color:transparent\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-8150419924824893\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"6522017574\"\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u2019ll look at how the performance-tuning profiles in AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition affect the behavior of Gigabyte\u2019s Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC.
