To make a long explanation short, I'm getting a warranty refund on an Asus Tuf 5070 at Micro Center, and thought about using that store credit to switch to a 9070XT. Looking at the store's stock/prices, I'm seeing several from ASRock and XFX priced where it would be an even exchange or well under $100 out of pocket

I'm not too familiar with these brands in the GPU space. Is either a great bang-for-buck value for these cards or would I be better off spending the extra $80-$120 get one from Asus/Sapphire/another brand?

EDIT: Sounds like XFX is the way to go. Thanks, friends

I have an Asus TUF 5070 with what I suspect is a dead DisplayPort port. At first I thought the cable for my secondary monitor had died, but in my testing I used 3 different monitors with 2 different DP cables and plugged each in via HDMI as well - Every monitor instantly finds the signal and works in any other port but none of them can get a signal in DP port #2 regardless of the cable used. Windows can't detect anything plugged into it. During this process each monitor was power cycled, I reseated the power connector at both ends and updated the GPU drivers 

Is there anything else I can try (and/or is worth trying), or is it safe to assume at this point the port is dead at the hardware level and I can move forward with a warranty claim?
