Take a breather buddy

Lets get you started with a few questions

How much money you wanna spend?
What games do you play?
Is the GPU just for gaming?
And because it can be a factor what your PSU?

 

These being said the best Value for money GPU imo is the 9070 xt but again depends on your budget

I edit my posts for so if you saw a typo.... no you didn't, you are just crazy

Aight so 
VR games sadly no major reviewer that I can find has done much  to benchmark them. The closest I can find are a few vids getting 50+ FPS on MSFS and this Benchmark on the various VR room benchmarks

Racing sims from examples I can find like forza 5 the 9070xt is somewhat faster

And general gaming I covered in the 1st post

 

I would stick with the 9070xt as it is just at the borderd of your max budget at about 605 GBP

 

Btw dont mark it as solved yet cause other folks may have some more extensive info

None, the cheapest one that doesnt have a history of catastrophic fails is more than enough

Brand loyalty is a practice nobody should follow for GPUs

If he can get a 9070XT near 600 in the UK, I would rock that.

Shit, I was thinking that was a good price then I looked at the exchange rate.  $810 USD.  Ehh for us.  Good for them I suppose.

Generally I use exchange rate + tax

Its (rounded up to simplify) 540 GBP is the MSRP so 65 GBP over MSRP or roughly 12-13% over MSRP which isnt too terrible imo

i personally own a sapphire GPU (rx7800xt) and it's an amazing card, literally ZERO COIL WHINE, runs actually pretty quiet and this below is something i'm keeping my eyes on because the price is actually not that bad, i would recomend sapphire as a known brand with an actually pretty fast answering support (i opened a ticket and they answered me in less then 40h)

Well coilwhine seems literally lottery, my Gigabyte 3070 vision OC has some, my Gigabyte 5070 Aero OC has none, my MSI 1060 had some, my EVGA 1070 had absurd coilwhine (until I changed the PSU cable lol) 

The direction tells you... the direction
