5700XT

Loving mine, great card for 1440p

Doesn't seem like you get that much more performance for nearly twice the price?

Yup, that's why the smart money is holding onto it til at least next gen

That's why I've still got a Vega 64 (AIO), I will buy either AMD or NVIDIA (I have had both in the past), I do kinda want to support the underdog/competition so I will probably go AMD

Tbf by next summer/Fall you should have some more options on both sides!! I'm not a fanboy either, have a 2080Ti and 5700XT here

edit - Also, nVidia DX12 driver is trash man, just trash. Get crashes in both Division 2 and Borderlands 2 if I use it, the 5700XT has no such problems and gives it a healthy boost over DX11 in both games!

Tiz a bit quicker than the 2070.

Yup, and creeping *very* close to the Super

Decisions decisions.... i have until April/May to mull it over.

I managed to get a few days old Asus 5700XT blower for £275 from the MM, bloody good performance for that money and a solid 3yr warranty!!

I really need an upgrade as I'm running a Samsung C49RG9 @5120 x 1440, currently I run most of my games in a window

Perfect, what good luck.

Yeah, big Navi would be perfect for you

Hold on if you can unless you spot a bargain XT to tide you over!

 

[JediFragger]

Perfect, what good luck.

Runs 2Ghz/1780mem so gives it a decent boost too

I've got too used to no fan noise as my VEGA 64 is AIO, I did have a 5700XT but while in "benchmarks" the XT is faster it was really hard to perceive any "real world" difference.

You won't unless they are big jumps, i can't tell the difference between 60 and 75 FPS, but 60 vs 100 i can, and again at 100 vs 150. 150 vs 200, no...

 

[JediFragger]

Agreed. Hell I don't even mind knocking some of the settings down so it's pretty pointless me having a 2080Ti as I don't run 4k atm!

 

[b00merang69]

No but you can run 1440p with highest setting at high FPS/HZ which I would prefer over 4K with lower FPS esp on high HZ monitor even on a 2080Ti 4K is not IMO quite here yet.

Do not see point in downgrading once bought unless some get buyers remorse and they shouldn't have bought it in 1st place for cashflow/other reasons (sound like any one here).

I just hope this launch is better handled than the 1080 cards, that was a shambles waiting 4 months after release and still pre ordered on day one.

“AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics” faster than GeForce RTX 2080 Ti
Something interesting has just shown up in OpenVR benchmark results database. The leaderboard access is limited, as it requires a separate purchase. However, “muchcharles” (a member of AMD Sub-reddit) discovered a new entry in the database.

The OPN code of the CPU corresponds to Ryzen 7 4800H, but the clock speeds are not the same. This might be a variant of 4800H running at different TDP, or an early engineering sample (4800H has a boost clock of 4.2 GHz).

The bigger question appears when we are trying to figure out what the GPU in this test really is. It could be an unreleased graphics in an external GPU enclosure, a Radeon running in CrossFire, or the Big Navi.

We simply don’t know yet, but this is an interesting find for sure.

Nearly 20% performance increase over a 2080ti. Not bad but nothing spectacular.

It can be a CPU bottleneck caused by the Ryzen 7 4800H. 20% is not bad.

Interestingly enough, the unnamed GPU appears to be coupled with the freshly announced Ryzen 7 4800H CPU designed for laptops, while the RTX GPUs all run on desktop-grade CPUs like the Core i7-8700K and the i9-9900K. Since the high-end Navi is expected to be launched this summer, the tested model is probably an engineering sample, so there is still room for improvement, but even at these early stages, the AMD GPU managed to render 103.32 fps compared to the 88.1 fps rendered by the RTX 2080 Ti in the 1,512 x 1,680 test ran on the HTC Vive MV headset. This would roughly translate to around 17% increased performance.

VR benchmarks are not really that popular when comparing raw performance for gaming GPUs, but Nvidia natively has the upper hand in this sector. It looks like AMD has at least stepped up its VR game and it would be interesting to see if this performance edge is maintained in synthetic gaming benchmarks and AAA games. Also, the timing for the high-end Navi GPU might be a little off, as Nvidia is also planning to release the Ampere GPUs this summer, and these are expected to bring performance gains of around 50% over the Turing models.

nvm (misread VR)

I was disappointed AMD didn't announce the new high end card. I'll make do with my 1070 until then. Unless a crazy good deal comes along.
