Will you buy a RX 5700 Or RX 5700 XT?

[Troezar]

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.

That's very cheap. I'll wait for the reviews to drop then decide. I dealt I want something a good bit faster than a 1070 but not over £500. Less would be better.

Guessing these cards aren't aimed at people on super wide or 4k resolutions who play games at high/ultra?

Have a good look at the only perf slide AMD published against Vega

https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/posts/32805335/

Pointles sbecause AMD released a full benchmark suit against the 2070 and the result was 5% faster. That is AMD's own numbers. In reality that is likely to be 0-2% faster across all games. That is a fair bit slower than a V64

No, doesn't have the grunt for modern games.

RX5700 is 10% faster than an RTX2060 for probably 20% to 25% more. Nvidia is the value for money option here!!

Nope, although those may come later. But for now, if you want a 4K card from AMD, then it's still the Radeon VII.

Sure, when the Vega 56 matches or beats it yet is cheaper

 

[Mrmigs2011]

Tempted but no, think amd are waiting till super is out to consider a flag ship card again just so they can go after them like they have been intel.

Personally thinking the Vega offer the best price to perf to date and don't think the xts will be faster in the long haul at all, power efficient yes, but performance, well my Vegas say bring it on!

 

[FredFlint]

Was going to get a 5700X but the price is way to high so I will skip it.

 

[Martini1991]

I'd buy a 5700XT, at £350.

 

[FredFlint]

I'd buy a 5700XT, at £350.

I would be tempted @£350, I see it as a 590 replacement and they sell for ~£250 so £300 is what I expected, £450 is just an Nvidia move.

Nope got a v7 for a nats knicker over £500

Doubt it. AMD loses money on current prices. If rumours are correct is already EOL selling the chips to Apple for 5 times more profit.

 

[delvey]

As would most people, but realistically it is going to be closer to £450 ($449 is around £350, then add 20% for VAT)

Erm, Doubt what ?

 

[TNA]

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.

Nope. Over priced.

Undervolt and the performance they offer rivals the new stuff at a much lower cost.

Sorry I can't bring myself to buy a blower card and the Pulse is still too high price.

This. There's a whole bunch of us ready to fork out £250 for the Pulse.

But not £270.

 

[Troezar]

Anyone else noticed prices rising and warranties getting shorter?
