Card Feedback?

[Kuroo]

 

So these three cards looking at them and with things with Nivida I'm sort of leading away from them with the power and the burning of cards with wires etc etc. But wanted more input as to which of these cards are better overall. Asking me what for and all meh, that doesn't matter I'm looking more for the merits of the cards then other things. So I thought I as the public for some more input and ideas for this.

i believe that the burning wires are more on the uber high end like 90s and 80s but also that that is more FE not as big of a problem on partner cards. could always do what linus did /s

The 5070 Ti and 9070 XT are meant for gaming at 1440P. The 7700 XT is meant for gaming at 1080P.

 

1. RTX 5070 Ti 16GB

2. RX 9070 XT 16GB

3. RX 7700 XT 12GB

9070XT and 5070Ti are direct competitors, with the typical "AMD is faster raster" "AMD is cheaper for the raster performance and more available", "Nvidia is much faster raytracing", "AMD doesnt necessarily use 12V high failure power connector", "Nvidia has better support outside gaming" etc.

 

7700XT meanwhile is the predecessor of the 9070XT, so everything is not as fast but will still get years of software support and may be worthwhile if it's cheap enough.

The 5070 Ti is a 300w card so its pulling half the wattage of what a the new nvidia cable is rated for

It should not be a problem at all.  Not heard of a single similar wattage card ( 4080 - 5070 Ti - 5080 ) having this issue.

I personally have an overclocked 4080 ( around 330-340w ) and I have been fine since release with a variation of cables.

The melting connectors is more of a Darwin thing. It separated those who have a PC IQ north of a turnip from those who shouldn't be allowed to build a PC. Look for a 850W ATX 3.1 psu for that 5070 Ti and don't try and fit that card inside a cracker box size case and all your worries are solved. If all you intend on doing is gaming at 1440 then the 9070 XT imo seeing how it cost less. If you intend on streaming and/or productivity such as rendering / 3D modeling for example then the 5070 Ti for sure.

The 5070 Ti beats the 9070 XT in pure raster.

Your right. Then change it to "cheaper and more available".

So you all are pretty much saying the best thing to get is the RTX 5070 Ti 16GB?

That's the best out of those three cards. Make sure to pair it up with a ATX 3.0 or 3.1 psu.

Yes.  But the 9070 XT is good too  

Up to you.

I wouldn't worry at all about burning connectors on a 5070 Ti.

Can't see the prices you're getting so can't answer.

 

Also PCPP isn't the most accurate, sometimes it doesn't update itself to reflect out of stock situations right away

eliminate the 7700xt thats nowhere near the performance of a 9070xt considering its only about as powerful as a 6800 non xt, have a used 6950xt or 3090 (equiv 4070ti super) in its place instead if you want a good value card around the 400-500$ mark

 

as for 9070xt vs 5070ti if you need nvidia features 5070ti if not 9070xt but this is under the assumption that the 9070xt is cheaper otherwise 5070ti if the 9070xt is the same price (its only real selling point is the price in the first place)
