The factory-overclocked XFX Radeon RX 7800 XT Merc 319 comes with a powerful triple-slot, triple-fan cooling solution that uses a metal shroud instead of plastic like on many other cards. The cooler runs much cooler than the AMD reference version, by over 20°C, and noise levels are greatly improved, too.

Yes merc 319.. not sure why naming has to be so complicated

i think „speedster“ means oc? Or does it mean „gaming“?

Is it possible to put all 7800XT cards together and 7700XT cards together and show the performances next to each of their respective cards.
As much as I enjoy reading the reviews, comparing the cards and which one to buy based on speed/looks/noise etc, would be nice to see next to each other.

Thanks, and yes, the naming is silly. Funnily enough, this is available for the equivalent of US $492 here.

Speedster means nothing as long as all cards they make are into the so called Speedster Series, from the paltry 6400's to the mighty 7900XTX's.
Difference only comes from their monikers: Swift (SWFT) < Quicksilver (QICK) < Mercury (MERC). And that's both for build as for clocks.

Thanks for the explanation. It also reinforces @W1zzard 's point about naming; quicksilver is liquid mercury.:kookoo:

But Mercury is also the Roman god of speed, and that's the only reason I can personally find to explain what XFX may have thought.

Yup, we're doing that on our YouTube channel. Video was just posted this morning

Now that I think about it, I don't see a link to the channel on the website. It might boost exposure to have a link to it on the front page or something.

Edit: Woops, took a second look. I see the icon now. It's tiny though.

We’re just starting out, mostly messing around, learning things, our core business is the website for the foreseeable future. Any thoughts where you would place a yt link to make it easier to find?

The location's probably fine. Just make it easier to spot.
Maybe in colour, instead of black and white.

Adblock also seems to block the group of social media icons
