RX 5700 XT vs RTX 2060 Super

Beovy

Where I live (Ontario Canada), the RX 5700 XT is on par or in some cases cheaper than an RTX 2060 Super. I am aware the 5700XT out performs the RTX 2060 Super in games, however, AMDs driver issues are making me lean towards green side.

 

The games I currently play include: LoL, CS GO, Valorant, OW, BF4/V, Division 2, CODMW. All at 1440p 75hz (although that may change to 1080p 144hz in the future)

Programs I also use: Solidworks  (I'm an engineering student), Adobe Premiere/Davinci Resolve, Adobe Lightroom/Photoshop (photo and video editing are merely a hobby however I can appreciate a stable experience in said programs), casual game streaming on OBS.

 

Planning on running on a 3700x or the gen 4 successor if I decide to wait that long...Although quarantine is driving me crazy right now gaming on this ultrabook...so we'll see. 

 

I have also been considering stepping down to a 5700 because it's cheaper and the games I play aren't that demanding anyway....but those drivers I'm still not comfortable dealing with if that is still a problem.

 

I've read countless problems with these two AMD cards and the games I play so I'm just asking if it's worth just getting the RTX 2060S that I know wont give me problems. I could also benefit from the GPU acceleration in the programs I use.

i have no issues but some of my friends have. It is purely hardware and RNG based if you get any driver issues. from my experience and what i heard from my friends AMD has fixed most of theis bugs and issues.

 

you can bios flash rx 5700 to 5700 XT's bios and then rx 5700 is only 1-3 worse than the 5700 XT.

 

get the rx 5700/5700XT

You must compare Radeon RX 5700 XT only with RTX 2070 Super. 

RT 5700 XT is much better than RTX 2060 Super...

Just, personal experience here. I build a system with a 5700xt for my nephew and yes, the first weeks it had driver issues.

But, AMD released a driver yelling "it's all fixed now!" so I installed it on his system and it has been running with no problems since then.

 

So, I understand you are afraid of the bad drivers that came with navi, but from personal experience, they got their shit together and fixed it and it's not really a worry anymore.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

Unless you already got it working and is using it, you don't know that.

there is no "VS" between those GPUs...

 

RX 5700 xt is faster and cheaper.

For the same price of $399 the rx5700xt is the winner. You can find 5700xt for around $360 if you shop around.  I got my friend one  2 weeks ago for that price.  
 

I have a pulse 5700xt and have 0 issues with it. I did have a xfx dd Ultra rx5700 non xt that I had a ton of trouble with. 
 

Buy the card from a company with a good return policy. If you have issues send it back
