Question Help choosing a GPU / 1080p 144hz

[nxnje]

Hello,
I had posted time ago about a tip about the RX5700, but things have changed a bit.
I bought a Ryzen 5 3600 and I need to get a GPU as I have sold my GTX 1060 at 130$.
I have 400€ budget and I need to buy a GPU in order to play 144hz 1080p.
As far as AMD launched my thoughts were getting a reference card, but I see many people who's even arguing against the AIB models.
I'm decided to buy a rx but cannot choose between the RX 5700 and RX 5700XT.
The reference 5700 here costs around 310€ whereas the reference 5700xt is priced around 370€.
Custom AIB models are still pretty expensive and I do not know what to do.
I need a GPU with which I can play 1080p 144hz at least for the next 2 years without issues, as I do not wanna change the GPU next year again just like I did with my GTX 1060.
I play: PUBG, Apex Legends, Rainbow Six Siege, Quake Champions, Battlefield 5, CSGO and Overwatch.

Do you think buying a reference 5700 for like 310€ could be a good option for 2 years of 144hz 1080p playing? Or should I wait some more for the AIB 5700xt to go down with prices?
Do you think a 5700xt would survive for more than 2 years in 144hz 1080p?

Thanks in advance for the kind help, i'm really confused.. atm I'm "playing" (because this is not playing ahahah) with a crap Nvidia GT640..

DISCLAIMER: didn't mention the Nvidia GPUs as they're more expensive and I am not interested in RTX. I buy from Italy.

I will not buy reference card. How much is RTX 2070/2060? Which country?

If you want to go amd get partner models
I have a reference 5700 its not bad at all but if you want to play with power tables get partner models
If you prefer nvidia then get a 2060 or 2060 super they are good cards and yoy will have that ray tracing if it fancies u
But for raw performace at €400 5700xt does win especially if u get a partener model u can get it to 2080 levels

RTX 2060 SUPER is around 430/440 euros. RTX 2070 SUPER is around 600+ euros.
rx5700 reference is 310 euros, rx 5700xt reference is 370 euros. AIB 5700xt versions are around 500 euros.
I wasn't looking at them mainly because I wanna buy a freesync monitor, and I do not have a specific model, but I know I'm gonna buy the less expensive 144hz that I will find with freesync. G-sync retrocompatibility through drivers on freesync monitor is officially supported on very few monitors, that's why I was looking for an AMD card for easy adaptive sync without killing myself searching for a compatible monitor.

Yes, i would have liked buying the 5700xt for its performance and frames per euros.

In that case, reference 5700 XT it is. What psu do you have in mind?

Corsair CX550M.
The reference XT is hot, that was the problem.

But I mean.. my main question is: if I had to buy something that can survive in 144hz 1080p for like 2 years, would the 5700 be a good choice or it's way way way better going for the xt version? I could get a AIB model for some little money more than 400$ but will it be a game changer compared to the 5700 non-xt?

If you buy a aib 5700 they have dual bios and this one person flashed a rx 5700xt bios to the slower on board bios and he gets roughly 5700xt performance

I have seen that on reddit, but it's obvious that if something goes wrong then I will still have a 5700.

My question was just if a 5700 would be enough for 1080p 144hz for at least 2 years or if the 5700XT would last for some more.
