What's better?

MAXimum01

So I was just wondering if a 2070 super (Asus rog to be specific) was $650 used for 3 ish months vs a rx 5700 xt (gigabyte gaming OC to be specific again) brand new at $680 which one would you pick? This is kind of urgent and I've been told to return my unopened and card and get the 2070 super as it's a bargain!

Note: Currency is AUS

 

Thanks, Max

If you dont care about tweaking or OCing and/or enjoy RTX, then go for the 2070s. But tweaking the 5700xt will make it a better option. 

My Build (5800X3D, RTX 3070)

 

disclaimer: i probably don't know what I'm talking about but I try to give the best advice I can

You are getting overall better performance with the rtx 2070 super, but to be honest you are comparing a used card to a brand new one which doesn't make a ton lot of sense, should have gone used to start with if you wanted better deals.

It's kind of a no-brainer isn't it?

The 2070 Super is cheaper, performs better and has more features.

The only reason why you should consider the 5700 XT in this case is because it's brand new vs a second hand card. Some people are against buying second hand stuff but that doesn't seem to be an issue for you so it doesn't make sense to get the 5700 XT. Why pay more and get less?

No, tweaking the 5700 XT will not make it a better option.
