The Sapphire RX 7900 GRE Pulse ships in a bright blue box, with a large AMD Radeon logo and 7900 GRE branding in the bottom corner.

Inside, the only included accessories are a short quick installation guide and GPU support bracket.

As for the design of the card, it is very reminiscent of the RX 7900 XT Pulse we looked at in 2023. Its shroud is made of mostly black plastic, though there are a few red accents which tie in with the Pulse colour scheme.

We can also note the triple fan cooler, using Sapphire's Angular Velocity Fan Blades, while each fan measures in at just under 100mm in diameter.

The Pulse isn't quite as large as the Nitro+, measuring 320 x 128.75 x 52.57mm, while it weighed in at 1105g on my scales.

The side of the card is home to the Radeon and Sapphire logos, again coloured red. We can also note the full-length metal backplate, with the Pulse branding and an ECG printed in red – a staple of the Pulse series throughout the years.

As expected, power is still delivered by two 8-pin connectors. Display outputs consist of 2x HDMI 2.1 and 2x DisplayPort 2.1, so there's an extra HDMI but one less DisplayPort than what we usually see.
