Running a Ryzen 5800x3d need a new GPU for upcoming bf6..

9070xt

The 5800X3D is still a very good gaming CPU and seems able to feed reasonably high refresh gaming in BF6. I'd still have mine were it not for a couple of games I regularly play bumping into limits (Darktide and Helldivers 2, both on the same engine, which topped out lower than I'd like with that CPU-though it was still very playable in both titles).

GPU wise it's hard to call. The 9070 XT is better value than the 5070 Ti comparing the cheapest cards, with the latter only really making sense if you're very interested in RT performance in games with a heavy implementation. DLSS with the transformer model is slightly better than FSR4, but from what I've seen it's the kind of difference you'd forget once you start playing a game instead of just ogling the visuals.

As to whether you should buy one now or wait for the Super release? Tough to say. If the 6800 XT can tide you over then you could wait, but we just don't know what the price/performance will look like.

Thanks..i am not interested in RT but i want a very healthy fps, my gpu is not pathetic but still borderline any good for bf6. I have a feeling the rtx 9070xt would just be a stop gap card so hesitant to pull the trigger if i could get one of the better msi versions of the 5080 for around £1k i would probably go that route. Bit of a tough call atm.. if i hang on and just stick it out with my present card what's the point upgrading for a 6 month old game i have hammered when the super cards get launched.

The thing that makes the 5070Ti still worth the extra, is the massive back catalogue for DLSS3.X, due to Nvidia sponsoring 90% of games - there are hardly any FSR3/3.1 games in comparison, which is quite laughable considering how long ago FSR1/2 was, yet things like Resi4R still shipped with FSR1/2

FSR4 doesn't seem to be making up for this in terms of historical support, just like it's predessor didn't and that will always be the case with the lack of AMD sponsored games.

I've no brand loyalty, but, I'd want to get the most out of my money, and having continual support for any new games and their tech, will always win, along with a juicy back catalogue of anything that I've missed.

It's very frustrating, as I'd love to get something mega, such as a RX 9950XTX (if one were to exist)

For balance though, a 9070XT is still an incredible card, but I don't like having to sacrafise things for the sake of say another £100-150, if it buys me a longer lifespan with it.

It seems the price of the 9070xt is coming down. I am not interested in back catalogue games i don't play many to be honest..bf a flight sim and a little HLL my radeon 6800xt works fine with them but the new monitor gives me cause for concern with bf6 i want very good fps. I may buy a 9070xt as a stop gap card i might get around £250-£300 for my asus rog liquid cooled 6800xt so i could possibly pick one up for an additional £400 which isn't bad. If next year i feel the need i could perhaps get a 5080 super something like that.

cheers

I played the bf6 playtest with 5800x and 3070 and it was kind of miserable especially having 165hz gsync monitor. I bought a new 5070 ti this week ready for BF6 but now I'm afraid my 5800x is going to hold me back. i loaded up bf1 and bfv and my gpu usage sits around 30-40% and my cpu reaches 60%. will bf6 be somewhat similar? am i going to lose a lot of performance due to this 5800x?

I've not seen any tests using a 5800X, but considering the usual delta between it and the X3D counterpart I think you'll likely be fine on a 165Hz display.

Well i ordered an Asus Tuff gaming rx9070xt as its dropped to a good price now...my ultrawide monitor can do 240htz but a pipe dream with this card just not willing to spend double the price for an rtx5080 or wait 6 months for a super card and then have the agony of Nvidia price gouging yet again. Paid £659 inc delivery and i traded my old monitor in so card was £550 see how it goes after much praise for the card on this fine forum

Thanks all
