LOLs.
I had no idea it was the same driver. Remember driver cache on games with a differeing VRAM amount?
You do understand right
In a word no not really. There will be some edge cases. You will get FSR4 upscale and ray tracing performance will be improved. From a raster perspective roughly 20% would not be enough for me.
Would FSR4 and better RT not make up for that smaller increase though? I suppose if raster is all your after then likely not. Depends on @Dirk Diggler and his priorities.
Yeah it’s a tricky one. From a Nerd perspective I would say go for it. But that’s not for everyone. Op needs to check the games he plays to work out if it is worth it to him.
To be honest, it's a difficult one to answer because I avoid Ray Tracing due to the crippling performance hit and therefore don't actually know what I'm "missing".
If you have cyber punk try that with varying ray tracing settings to see what that looks like. Do bare in mind it does put extra load on the cpu and that can be a factor aswell.
Is the 9070 XT a capable RT card or is it still Nvidia for that stuff?
I think the 5070ti might edge it, but they are very close. Not had any problems in borderlands 4 and RT is on all the time. Say that FRS4 is so good now I cannot tell the difference between that and native.
If you're struggling to get playable FPS (e.g. at 4K), I guess could be worth it, but the upgrade is mild.
The reaper 9070XT is the best physically fitting card being a true 2 slot, standard height, standard length card.
It's longer than the Gigabyte?
Their listed length is wrong, it's only 1mm more than the gigabyte. If you can take the extra height then by all means take advantage.
