Choosing 5700xt model

gogogame

Just to make sure

I plan to buy a new Graphic card for my rig

 

I'm going for MSI gaming X model for 13800 THB (around 456.26 USD) but here's some other competitior

Gigabyte gaming OC - for about same price

Powercolor reddevil - around 30$ more

Saphire Pulse - around 30$ more

 

A good decision?

Get the sapphire card, they have much better support and quality among the others

No idea about support but PowerColor GPUs have even slightly better heatsink performance, and Gaming X isn't far from them either.

Then even just for the support I would still stick to sapphire

I have the Sapphire nitro and am really happy with it. The trixx software is nice. With scaling options and bios switches.

The MSi Gaming X is actually one the best, there's literally no need to look for others specially with a 30 bucks premium.

I went with the sapphire nitro. Purely based on looks if I am honest, I was weighing up the same ones as OP. I wasn’t a fan (no pun intended) of the black and red colour scheme. The nitro looks ace though! I keep it in the silent bios and very happy.

To me Sapphire Pulse at $410 is a no brainer since it is $10 above a crappy reference model yet is leagues quieter and cooler.  My only complaint is it being 2.3 slots but it still should fit most cases
