Which 9070Xt are you going for?

The Pulse seems the one for me. It's in TPU's charts and the cooler looks like it will be very quiet and the card will run cool. The price is also a big factor.

Will be quite the update based on my current RX 6600 running at 4k!

Christ, I thought I was doing well to dance around the settings to get a decent compromise between quality and framerate at 1440p on my 6600XT
 
Looking at the pulse myself. Will be a good upgrade from my 1070! (yes i'm updating the rest of my system too)
 
Pulse or the Reaper, though I can't see me being quick enough! :(

Maybe it's just the pics, but often tend to think the Pulse model looks a bit tacky, though, very popular among users, it seems.

Wow, If you look at the cheapest 5070TI "£860" and the cheapest 9070XT "£570" On OCUK, thats a difference of £290 and as you can see, people still buy Nvidia and the 2 cards are trading blows in benchmarks fps wise.
 
Not in a great hurry to upgrade from a 4070, but tempted by an xt model when prices/reviews/availability is fully known, had no intention of upgrading this gen, but never say never.
 
THink I mught now go for the Powercolor Hellhound first, then the Sapphire Pulse if I miss out.

Anyone know what the Powercolor warranty situation is? UK based? OCUK deal with it?

The Powercolor Reaper did well for acoustics when tested by Tom's, so that's encouraging.
The last thing I want is to go from a near silent FE model to a hoover.

Additionally, the 9070 (non-XT) Challenger from Asrock looks okay. Some previous Challenger models looked bad, IMO.
 
Pulse XT, I don't need one realistically but I'd like to mess around in Linux and Nvidia is still bit eh with VKD3D (DX12)

If however price goes up to £630 for it I might spring for Nitro+ or Red Devil just for extra OC potential
