AMD Radeon 9070XT review thread

I'm considering getting one of these to replace my rtx 3070. Seems like a good 1440p card, if I ever buy a new monitor that actually supports that resolution.
Its roughly 80% faster from ur 3070 on avg
About getting 1440p monitor- its great choice coz u can always use res scaling in more demanding games, i do it on my 4k monitor and 3080ti in most demanding/newest games is nowhere near strong enough anymore but count in dlss and it can last me till future 5080ti/super or 60xx cards(or amd's rdna 5, i welcome any great gpu with open mind here).
 
I guess I got lucky because I was only interested in that model, which meant when orders opened they didn't evapourate in seconds like the MSRP models.

I'm very happy with it yeah, the cable management is genius.

I will probably get another Nitro when I build a new pc in a few years.
Just checked for stock, saw Pure and Nitro+, and went for it - bough the Nitro+!

Now I need to buy the rest of a new build to match, as it might be a slight bottleneck to put it alongside my i5 4690k from 2013 or whatever it was.

Congrats! I'd recommend using a native 12 pin for the GPU. My Corsair PSU predated that power cable but luckily they sold a backwards compatible one that plugs in to two PCI slots.

Just a slight one..... and by slight i mean
really fucking huge. In fact I'd bet that GPU is being neutured to 6600 speeds

My local Microcenter got a handful of XFX Quicksilver 9070 XTs in this afternoon and I raced over after work. Apparently unnecessary as I was the first one there, but I wasn't chancing it. Bought above MSRP, of course ($860 pre-tax), but my current rig... has been chugging along in a concerning manner recently, so I'd rather get started on a fresh build sooner rather than later.
