Wich is the best value Graphics Card for around 300$

[DrFredge]

From what i have seen it is the Gigabyte Gtx 1660 Ti OC 6GB

Gtx 1660ti or the rx 5700.

 

One on the lower side, and one on the higher side.

Apparently you can flash the rx 5700 with the bios for the rx 5700 xt and get almost the same performance which would definitely be the best deal. Maybe look into that.

None of them. Dont waste 300$+ in a videocard. Not until companies fixes all those graphic problems on videogames. Its not worthy and absurd. And you will be doing what they want, again.

5700, if possible the xt, but that depends on pricing. You could do the bios transfer like mentioned above but this does void warranty (duhuh).

I really have no clue what you are saying, what companies should fix which problems in which videogames?

the RX 5700 is closer to a 2070 with a bit of work

the best VALUE will always be found in used hardware imo.

 

both, the Gtx 1660ti or the rx 5700 are a good value in that pricebracket if you are going for new, but there are 2070 cards in the used market that are close to 300$.

 

i got my MSI 2070 armor used with warrenty for 350€. that card still starts at 530€ where i live

no, it is still missing cores, so it's only 90-95% as fast as the XT.

 

You mostly get a boost in memory speeds.

 

Takes less than 5 minutes to flash the bios, but you want a dual bios card for recovery like the Sapphire pulse, Unless you have a 2nd PCI-e slot and spare GPU to boot with.

The chances of something actually going wrong when following a guide is close to 0 though.
