Question 9070xt?

[ul1234personal]

Is the 9070xt worth it for price/performance?

depend on what price you can get your hand on

Depends what your currently running !

The 9070xt is a compelling product for it price and performance .

Even im thinking of swapping my 7900xtx for one

I would wait for actual 3rd party reviews before pulling the trigger !!

If it does better RT and is close to my 7900xtx in raster i think im going to swap to the 9070 xt

I paid $2000aud for my 7900xtx 2 years ago at the 600 msrp plus AIB increases on the 9070xt if its a close product at maybe $1300aud its a good deal

Keep in mind though with your 7900 xtx has 8gb more ram, probably better raster. So you may not be too quick to jump. Though I have a 7900xtx and I’d be lying if I said the thought hasn’t crossed my mind lol.

I don't think your standard 9070 XT will beat a 7900 XTX.
Maybe the very best 9070 XT OC model will tie a low performing 7900 XTX, but most 7900 XTXs have decent overclocking headroom too.
Ray tracing is another matter. Can a good 9070 XT beat a 7900 XTX? I'd say probably from the info I've seen so far.

I get on another forum as well and someone has a good write up. If you have a 7900xt or xtx this may be interesting to you.

9070 / 9070 XT Why Its Important to manage expectations

The new XT is certainly fast enough at its price...remains to be seen how many of them will be remotely close to msrp...But It is important to manage expectations. What do I mean by that? Well....It's not going to be faster than the XTX or XT in any form, MAYBE a slightly edge in RT against the...

A quick look at 3DMark Time Spy scores shows that graphics scores over 34,500 are near the top 1% for the 7900 XTX. It's great that this person's card performs so well, but they are obviously an enthusiast. Everyone with a 7900 XTX should not expect to hit those numbers.
Because I want to use it for at least another 2-3 years, I am limiting my 7900 XTX to 400W now. With that said, the RT numbers do look better than I expected. I currently don't play much RTd games but maybe I should start. Maybe the 7900 XTX will still be the king of raster AND RT for AMD.

Even from Tom’s review of the 5070 it mostly showed the xtx ahead of the 5070. I’m just glad I’ve got a 2 year walk in warranty from Microcenter so if my card goes kaput just take it back and get another card for the same value.

Getting a 9070xt in MSRP is definitely wonderful.
Getting a 9070xt in MSRP+50$ is OK.
Getting a 9070xt with more than 649$ is not OK.

I wont be replacing my RX 7900XTX, but i will definitely be replacing my wifes Dell OEM RX 6900 XT. That card hits 89C global and 101C on the hot spot every time it plays a game. That is with an undervolt within the adrenalin software, originally it was hitting 92 and 108.

Might toss that 6950 onto eBay and see what you can get. Even with it doing that, you might get someone who is willing to try changing pads and thermal paste for a working card.
