OcUK GUIDE TO ORDERING YOUR AMD 9070 GRAPHICS CARD TODAY AT 14:00

[Copesman]

It's 500 cards so my guess is they will sell out tonight. People are not constantly checking like launch day. Over 50 have gone though.

Gone up a little in price ? Thought they were £629

 

[Copesman]

They have been 650 since second batch.

Must have been dreaming then

Which card was that?

Sapphire pure xt

 

[stuartharrison]

Not to mention the Gigabyte OC was available for £580 today.

That's a great card for 580. Reminds you what the 9070 xt is meant to be about

If its the site that begins with E then all those orders are being cancelled

MSRP is 569

Yes, but the gigabyte has an OC, takes 3 8 pin connectors and even has a bit of RGB on the logo. Worth paying the extra theoretical 11 quid for.

I got the pulse and the Zotac 5070 is going back.

Review of the Pulse just up from TPU. The thermals/cooling sections might be of interest to those looking at different models - https://www.techpowerup.com/review/sapphire-radeon-rx-9070-xt-pulse/39.html (basically - it's good)

 

[Thaifood]

Pulse better than the nitro for thermals. Thought it would have been other way round

nitro is drawing more power and a higher clock

Good choice, it's a brilliant card

 

[Copesman]

Sapphire always make good cards. Pulse cards just don't have a lot of bling

So tempting but I fear my 5600x won't do it justice and with mothers days coming up...... Maybe invest in a 5700x3d first then next month GPU

Probably a better route I have just brought a 5700x3d and pulse for my son's birthday So have to pay the overtime MSRP tax to ensure I had a card for him. The 5700x3d really help the pc by itself coming from a 3700.

Depends on your resolution 1440p or above you should be fine

I play on 1440p with a 6750xt.. space marine 2. Cpu usage is high 90%.. and So is GPU.. that's why I was thinking the CPU won't have enough grunt

Space Marine starting point, I'm getting 50-80% usage per core. Ryzen 7 7700. 1440p max setting RT off
