2070 vs 5700 xt

Found a GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2070 WINDFORCE 2X 8G Rev 2.0 8GB PCI-E w/ HDMI, Triple DP for $525 CDN online but was considering using a Radeon 5700 XT GAMING OC 8GB PCI-E w/ HDMI, Triple DP for $550 CDN.  Is the 2070 better and a steal or is the 5700 xt better?

The 2070 is better not by much but I would still choose nvidia for gpus anyway since the 5700xt is known for heating issues if they have yet to fix that via driver update

This 2070 is definitely not a steal. It has more features but 5700XT is faster in general. Btw that 5700xt price doesnt include mail in rebates?

I personally went with the 5700XT, the 2070 super is a pretty decent price jump (like $80 at least) for not a huge performance gain. Regarding the heat issues @ManosMax13 mentioned, I think that's really only an issue with the reference card and some of the other cards. I personally have a Power Color Red Devil with no thermal issues. And if you read reviews there are some fantastic coolers out there for the 5700xt. I would definitely consider it if I were you.

it's not a heating issue, but a cooling issue (manual fan speed control is broken). I'm not sure whether it's fixed yet though

2070 non-Super is slower than the 5700XT. 2070 Super is a tad bit faster.

Actually the 2070 has almost the same performance and is cheaper than the 5700xt in this case

If you're willing to tinker the 5700xt can gain even more performance! Almost level with a 2070s

No 2070 non-super will beat the 5700XT outside of software designed specifically to make AMD cards worthless for hardware acceleration. (Adobe Premiere, etc.)
