GIGABYTE Gaming Radeon RX 9070 16GB

I bought this just to play Crimson Desert on Ultra!

I got older, made more money, I can now sit on top gaming rigs, but end up falling asleep most of the time now.

Pros: Paired with a Ryzen 7 9850X3D 1080p on Ultra gets me 122 fps on Crimson Desert with only 5Gb of VRAM

Cons: It's bulky! Watch how you place your AIOs can keep it from seating in right.

One of the best

Just as much performance as a 5070ti and a simple undervolt makes it better than it in every title. Solid drivers especially after the recent one Nvidia just released. At this point I can't see myself ever going back to Nvidia.

Pros: -performance -drivers -not Nvidia

Aorus has the best looking 9070XT by far!

I am so happy with the quality of this card. When the launch happened, I was looking at all the different varieties in the various partner cards and it was the Aorus card that jumped out at me the most. I would gladly recommend this card to everyone I can.

Pros: - I love the design, perfectly fits most aesthetic builds - ARGB lighting is perfect for a vertical mount and not over the top - OC / Performance mode vs Silent mode switch is a great addition - Uses three 8-pin power ports instead of the faulty 12v High Power one that has been such a problem so far

Cons: The anti sag stand included is well made, but does not easily adjust for vertical mounted GPUs. I was able to use one screw and make it work for me and my case, but a different bracket with the screw holes going vertically would have been perfect.

Card runs amazing

Going to give it some breakin time and hope the sound goes away waiting on a vertical mount.

Pros: Very fast card for the price

Cons: Mine makes a buzzing noise like the fan it clipping, something shined a light in the fans, and it's clearing all the sides and nothing is obstructing.

Big Upgrade

Coming from a 3070 and playing primarily at 4K 8 GB of VRAM has been my Achilles heal for the last few years easily doubling my performance and no longer running to the vram limitations has been amazing. The software can be a little quirky till you get used to it, but everything has been smooth sailing so far!

Pros: Temps performance value and looks

Cons: Can sound like a jet engine
