Will you buy a RX 5700 Or RX 5700 XT?

Will you buy a RX 5700 or RX 5700 XT when it's released?
I've been eying this myself and think it will be more then enough for what I do.

I will wait for the reviews to make my mind, but if truly is 55% faster on 2560x1440 than the V56 (which means is ~20% faster than the V64) as per AMD slides, then need to see how efficient is the blower cooler.
Otherwise I will wait for 3 fan AIB one in August.

I think that's fairly optimistic. More so than most other speculation. Ballpark figures seem to be ~20% faster than V56 and ~10% faster than V64, for the non-Anniversary Edition XT.
 
No, I need something much more high end. I've already got a GTX 1080 and any upgrade needs to be at the very least 50% faster for me to consider it.
 
I'm in the market for a couple of new cards, but unless the price/performance is ahead of nvidia from day 1, there seems to be no reason to.

Roll on the 7th of July, or at least a few days later, when everyone actually shows their hand and we know what Navi vs Super really looks like.
 
Nope, waited, performance and power draw look about as expected but the price is all wrong. Went for a Vega 64 instead with a top end 3rd party cooler for over £130 less than the stock 5700XT launch price.

Nice one :) V64 is great GPU tbh, and best one if you are on proper overclocking through a lot of tweaking, and not moving 1 slider to the right. :D
 
Nope. I managed to find a 'cheap' Radeon VII, and now plan to sit out the next year or so, unless something significantly better comes along for a good price.

Navi may be very good eventually, but the present offering doesn't excite me.
 
What you ask for hasn't happened in about a decade.

Yeah, i know, it's why i don't upgrade every year or two and waste money. I keep what i have until there a good reason to upgrade at a decent price. Hence the 80/100 performance increase.

I'm personally not going to spend the same money for a 15/20% increase, why would i, it's just daft imo.
 
No, just bought the Nitro Vega 64 for £299
I was waiting for Navi, but the 5700 is only at a max 20% faster, but going to be 25% more expensive than what I paid.
