4070 had higher average framerate but the 9070xt had better 1% lows and smoother frametime, drivers might change things
So I’m looking to upgrade my GPU and I’m stuck between the RX 9070 XT, RTX 5070ti and the RTX 5070.
Right now the 5070 Ti is the one I really want, but in Australia it’s sitting at around $1400 AUD which is expensive, i would get it but the 9070xt and 5070 are at 900aud. Is getting a 5070ti really worth it in this situation when the 9070xt is its competitor and 500 cheaper i just wanna know if its really worth paying 1400aud. 😩
Saw a 17.200.000VNĐ or 650$ "deal" for a Gigabyte 9070xt, lowest ever in my country, couldnt resist. Pretty nice upgrade from my old Palit 3070Ti. Been playing Forza Horizon 6 and the gpu temperature is only 50 degree which is fucking insane.
I’ve read it here a bunch of times how this feature is basically useless and wanted to share my experience which is the complete opposite.
Granted my use case may be pretty specific - I have a 9060xt and my PC is connected to a 55’’ 4K TV.
And for example just yesterday I’ve decided to start replaying AC: Odyssey which doesn’t have its own FSR support and wouldn’t work in 4K60 max details, then boom I change resolution to 1440p, everything is now buttery smooth constant 60 and I can’t for the life of me see the difference in image quality even though it’s supposedly only FSR1.
Had similar experience with Greedfall. I’d say for someone that tends to play a bit older games on the GPU that’s reasonably good but not the best the feature is super useful.
hi, planning to buy a 2nd hand 6800xt, what brands should i avoid? and what brand should i get? and what do you think the range price of these 2nd hand cards?
I said you could match a stock 4090 with a 9070 XT with an XOC, they called me a madman… so, fine, I did it myself.
I made a longer post on PCMR explaining some challenges preventing higher FPS, im going to run more tests tomorrow when it’s cooler outside
448.9 watts, +5mv to GFX
On my 7900gre, at 1440p extreme + rt , with fsr 3.1.5 , ghosting on rear car trails aswell as the well reported microstuttering . Who okayed this to be "useable"?. Guess I'll wait a month or until July , when we get fsr 4.1 . I would not mind native Fsr3.1.5 AA but the ghosting is very noticeable as it's in the rear of car . Vsynch off but might re-enable . Maybe that'll fix it?
[UPDATE] Screenshot of FSR Balanced and NO Framegen also available. The 9070 XT still shreds: https://imgur.com/a/fSJfv2t [/UPDATE]
Hey everyone, just wanted to share some benchmarking results after upgrading to the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT. I honestly wasn't sure how it would handle heavy ray tracing/PT, but Cyberpunk 2077 with full Path Tracing runs beautifully.
I’m running the game at 1440p (FSR Performance) paired with a Ryzen 7 7800X3D.
Screenshot is attached.
As said, I turned on FSR 4 set to Performance mode. Also using FSR 3.1 Frame Generation, which gets bumped to a machine learning solution with the new Adrenalin drivers (Redstone).
Thanks to Redstone's ML advancements, the image quality is incredibly sharp. The motion is fluid, the lows stays 120+FPS and there is zero noticeable stuttering while playing.
If you were on the fence about the 9070 XT's heavy ray tracing capabilities, it looks like the hardware upgrades combined with the new ML Redstone tech finally closed the gap.
Currently I have a PowerColor Reaper Rx 9070 that I got for $632. I can return it and get the same card for $535 or upgrade to an Asrock Challenger 9070xt for $630. I'm having a hard time deciding if I should pocket the money or make the upgrade. All of the prices include tax.
I have a 650w evga gold 80+ psu with a i5 12400/32gb ddr4, planning to upgrade to a 13600k. I play wuthering waves, the finals, and wukong.
I managed to overclock and undervolt my 9060xt to achieve 3500 mhz clock speed 2683 mhz vram fast timing and max hotspot of 76 stalker 2 ultra 1440p. Not sure if this will work on other cards or if i wont the silicone lottery but here ya go
still on 25.9.1 because one of the newer versions was glitched to shit and had to go back an update. Has anyone had problems with 26.5.2? or do i just hold off yet again on updating my drivers
Hello everyone, I made a previous post about this issue with forza horizon 6 on my rx9070xt and it has seemed to worsen. Also the video memory is jumping.
Holy benchmarking gamers !!!
EDIT: I meant to say UDNA, not CDNA.
First off. I am NOT an AMD fanboy. I have a 5090 and my wife has a XTX. Both are insane cards. XTX has the better cost per frame for sure for the 800 bucks I got it for. Let me point out something I have noticed.
When comparing the 9070 XT and 5070 Ti in benchmarks, notice how they are only a few frames apart on average. According to the latest HWUB video, they are two frames apart on average. If you take a look at the techpowerup average ranking, there is 6% difference between the two.
What amazes me is how close they are while the 9070 XT has a smaller die area. 9070 XT has a 357/2 die area while the 5070 Ti has a 378/2 die area. If you look assume both are on the same process node, the transistor count per die area is quite similar.
The kicker is that the 5070TI is only 4% more performant per die area (assuming they were both on the same process node). This is actually kinda crazy how fast AMD is catching up. Currently, AMD 9000 series is actually more efficient per die area, but it is on a slightly more advanced process node.
I'm waiting for UDNA before I upgrade my wife's XTX. UDNA is where the PARTY STARTS.
What is impressive is how much AMD is improving gen on gen. They are not wasting die space on fixed function hardware; they are using a more universal approach.

Hi, a few months ago I shared my concerns about the BIOS mod for the RX 9070, and after doing a lot of research, I was surprised to find that the VRMs on the 9070 are actually quite oversized, so I decided to go ahead with the mod without hesitation.
I installed the RX 9070 XT Reaper BIOS on mine, since it seems they share the same PCB and VRM configuration.
It’s drawing 320W with a -115 UV, and the hot spot is around 78 degrees.
A score of 7105 on Steel Nomad is on par with some stock RX 9070 XTs. I’m including the HWinfo data in case you want to check the amperages and the card’s total power consumption.
What do you think? Is it safe to use the card like this for an extended period, or should I lower the power consumption to around 280W+?
So, I used the optimized settings by benchmarking but I'm only getting around 60 frames per second, which is way lower than what I've seen others get on YouTube. And when I go into a new area, like a dark tunnel, my frames totally tank to about 10 fps for a bit, which is just unplayable considering my setup. I'm running a 5700X3D with 32 gigs of RAM. I even tried FSR, but that only gave me like 6 extra frames. It really shouldn't be this low, right, especially with 2K resolution and medium ray tracing?
Edit: Well, in my case, the issue is how the game handles steering wheel inputs. I actually found the fixes over on another subreddit here. My bad, it turns out the game was the issue, not the GPU.
Just want to share my happiness with you AMD fans.
After a long long time of saving money and waiting for my new PSU to arrive, I just upgraded from a 3060Ti to a RX 9070 Challenger from Asrock.
Nomad scores leaped from 2.488 (stock 3060Ti) to 5.979 (stock 9070). With just +10% Power Draw, -95Mv and +80Mhz to Clock Boost on Adrenalin, I was able to get to 6.592! Super happy with these results, guess I won't event mess with memory clock.
The rest of my setup includes a R7 5700X3D and 16 GB of 2666Mhz janky ass non matching DDR4 memory sticks (wish i upgraded before the RAM apocalypse). Also, the PSU I just bought is the 850W CenturyII by Montech, seems good so far.
Special thanks to my GF for supporting me on my hobbies hehe.
I did some testing with the newest test build of ZachHambree Optiscaler Fork (Releases · ZachHembree/OptiScaler). Works pretty well with Alan Wake 2. Hogwarts Legacy is also okay. I could not get it to work with the Star Wars Outlaws Demo though.

Hi everyone, been looking all over for a video showing how optiscaler handles FSR Redstone's Ray Regeneration and the new Frame Gen on Alan Wake 2 and haven't seen it anywhere, so i decided to do it myself.
Some disclamers:
I am running a 9070XT paired with a 9800x3d
Saga's sections (MAINLY in cauldron lake) are very heavy on the GPU with path tracing on because of all the foliage so i had to turn on FSR in Quality mode.
I am obviously acting stupid and making the model move fast to see how the Frame Gen reacts
Either the current version of the Optiscaler fork i am using or the actual GPU and it's drivers, can't handle Path Tracing indirect lighting in ultra quality yet (they crash the game), it's why the setting is on High
Shout out to ZachHembree for making an optiscaler fork with Ray Regeneration: https://github.com/ZachHembree/OptiScaler/releases
