What workloads are you running on the system, do you need ray-tracing, and what is your budget?

Ray tracing doesn't really bother me don't think I would use it a whole lot. My budget is around the £400-£500 mark sorry it is not in USD

 450 Pound sterling = $556.42 USD

 

Just to confirm, are you buying from the United Kingdom or a different county?

Okay, I would recommend MSI Gaming RX 5700xt with 8GB GDDR6 video memory which costs £439.99 as of the time of this post:        https://www.amazon.co.uk/MSI-Crossfire-Freesync-Architecture-Graphics/dp/B07Y8XCB36/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=RX+5800xt&qid=1587851570&sr=8-3

Yes, I would still recommend going with the 5700xt, the card is very commonly used, so driver updates and support for the future shouldn't be an issue.

The driver issues were mostly about the vega cards and don´t happen anymore at the new navi cards, such as the rx 5700 xt

Thank you!

and in Vulkan based games, the 5700xt might even beat an rtx 2080S
