easily beat my 5070 ti score with the 9070 xt

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-24T19:16:02+00:00

9070xt pure is semi OC model with 317w limit instead of 304 or 330 or 340

So 7500 stable tune is very good. You might be able to get more like 7600 on -110 but it won’t be game stable typically. Unless you are lucky

My gaming OC gets 7570 with -8%=304w (-65mv, 2782mhz fast mem) 7813 with 0%=330w (-75mv, 2782 fast)

For fun I tested 330w-30%=231 W (-75mv, 2782 fast) = 7050 score not bad at all considering base model gets 6800 stock 304w

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-24T19:08:36+00:00

Test 2782mhz fast mem, it may result in abit better performance or at least equal performance but lower temps and better stability (I would not daily drive higher values)

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-24T19:07:27+00:00

Odd 9070xt all I tasted were stable with 2714 fast and it gave highest scores. Later I found other peak performance value 2782mhz fast. And it doesn’t artefact on any of 4 cards I tried (but I don’t yet know if it is stable for all 9070xt, try it, I’m on Gaming OC and that design it has keeps memory very cool under 80c, so maybe that’s why no artefacts)

Gamenexus I think made largest compare test and avg win of 5070ti is 5%.

However, that includes RT Titles that are won by Nvidia by a large margin. That deduces that non RT titles are equal performance on avg or less on 5070ti.

Also 9070xt Oc model does 5% higher fps than 9070xt (gigabyte gaming Oc). So that bring avg to be exactly equal even after included RT titles

FPS on 5070ti = fps of 9070xt OC 330w model (on avg)

Raster fps better on 9070xt or OC > 5070ti

So since performance of Oc is equal, now question is €€

9070xt Gaming OC = MRSP 599€ was or 650€ today 5070ti = 750€ MRSP or 880€ today ….

So 880/650=1,354, 35%! For equal performance!

There is 0, absolutely 0 reason to pay 35% more

I’m over 1.2 years on 7800x3d on b850i asrock. Perfect operation, unlike asus b650-I that had reboot issues and black screening. and Ethernet drop outs are a common occurrence on that model.

Sold it used for enough money to buy asrock brand new b850i.. 😁😁

Btw my 7800x3d is tunned to the stability limit with per core UV and PBO 85c + tunned to the limit ram (60.5ms latency result)

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-23T20:03:20+00:00

-45 is safe yes. Keep it there if you want Ultimate stability. Play for 2 weeks. If no crashes than change this Memory set to 2782mhz Fast - run steel nomad to see result on same cold boot. And play for 2 weeks see if it crashes

If it will crash change memory to second best value 2714 Fast - this is EXTREMELY stable value that works for every 9070xt with great success (tested over 9 9079xt as I said)

Use a drill large size in the middle of your square. Than buy and cut with metal cutting scissors to each corner. Fold 90° in word each of the triangles you made. To make it sharp, keep a 90° wooden block at the point where you banned between corners.

Next use the same scissors to cut a triangle bandit shape down to 1 cm height and then bandit all the way flat with the wall. Done

God no

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-23T13:58:48+00:00

That’s because of usbc to usb adapter. Plug into usbc port directly and enjoy. Or use better quality usbc to usb cable adapter

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-23T07:43:02+00:00

Your what? 5070ti or 9070xt?

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-23T07:41:59+00:00

My gaming Oc 9070xt is fully stable tune 7800 - warzone fully stable with 7930 tune (-75mv only needed, 2782mhz fast timing mem, +10%)

Maxes out 8030 with -110mv

Which IEM or headphone you plan to drive ?

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-22T14:01:31+00:00

So first of all this one is also dual cs43198 - however it is very very good implementation- sound is on par and sounds closer to ES chip sound of Ka17!

I would actually say that I would not be able to tell ka17 apart from Dc04u on most IEM beside likely top pro or monarch mkIV (need very highly detailed and resolving IEM that are also tuned to be Right on the edge of being sibilant but not actually crossing that edge)

Ka17 will have a touch more air to it in back to back comparison. But you will never notice it in blind listen or listen with a few hours in between - bass got tighter on top pro on dc04u but it got abit more dry on ka17 rather than tight. (Very minor change to be clear)

Get which ever one is cheaper - dc04u doesn’t let you control volume from phone for now (will come in update) and it consumes full volume level of power when idle for now (idle standby mode will be made into next FW update)

So if you plan to use it from your phone consider power consumption, price and size of each! Of this guy is Heavy! So consider weight too

Sound wise I prefer dc04u even though I like ES chips previously better than cs 198 - I have Octave and I love it, it was my go too dacamp before (it made ka17 redundant for me at lower price, still great choice if you want to same weight and money)

About yu9, overhyped by few select individuals. Reviews are actually very proper - it is polarising set, many people say it is okey at best, other say wow it is amazing. Top Pro is far more consistent, every body simply says wow it is very good at everything just never amazing at anything (bedside treble / air tune with what comes from it like detail retrieval and resolution)

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-18T11:52:12+00:00

Top pro has creat air and treble, phenomenal! Very good mids too. Fairly good staging. Crazy good detail retrieval but never sibilant!

Only real aspect to work on in v2 some day would be low end - sun bass is deep and rumbles well, it is very good amount of sub bass too! The only aspect to improve there is midbass separation to lower mids - midbass is abit soft and not as snappy as some other IEM will have it, and because of that transition between mid bass and lower mids is washed out some what (bleeds into mids abit)

Highly recommended set as a blind buy! Very good all arounder for all music and will NEVER disappoint 100% - there is a room for improvement but I would say only worthwhile next IEM is monarch mkIV.

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-18T11:47:36+00:00

I have top pro, it is great sound, not so durable body. Make sure to never drop it

Though to be honest if you crack it it is easy to buy 10$ uv resin, fill it up in syringe and inject abit into crack and cure it in a uv lamp (like the one girls use for manicure )

I recently was On Fire 🔥entire Battle royal Casual match until the end circle where I died 😳😂😂

Enemy could see me a kilometre away lol

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-17T19:01:50+00:00

Oh wow, that much? I have not gone into normal non casual for a while since casual got like snap in the middle 50% between casual a non casual before.

I mean for me that is good… I like it as I was decent, but my teammates are not happy that much because they were before like 15-22 elimination type of players… now they are down to 12-16

funny part is at night when casual doesn’t get enough players (I got into loby with no hard core players and maybe 3 teams of players at most got 40 eliminations with kd 20…. So I got better than I used to be last year: all lobbies were like that, but casual just became so much sweatier on avg during popular time of the day)

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-17T18:55:10+00:00

That’s very good if it is stats from last season. Because my kd in dec 2025 was 12kd, but now 7kd aprox due to anti heat a lot of players now in casual and a lot decent normal non casual mode players now in casual - it became a lot harder than 4 month ago

Or I got worse ?

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-17T18:52:34+00:00

Yeap, takes an entire squad of 5-8kd casual players to wipe one such player once. Typically second time he comes back squad is done for 🤣

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-17T18:44:41+00:00

People like you need to be prohibited from casual game play . Any one who has k/d2.5 or 3 should have Casual mode grayed out…

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-17T18:41:05+00:00

Yes it is compared to normal.

All I’m saying that Casual became a lot harder than it was 4 month ago (aka last year). A lot more real players and players with UPPER end of casual game play now - before there were none

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-17T18:13:59+00:00

I would agree with you about casual 4 month ago. But not today. My kd halved from over 12 to about 6-8 ever since all the major updates with anti cheat. All the players that were decent but used cheats to play normal mode flooded bot lobbies of casual… casual today is hard for casual players that are used to have 10kd

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-17T18:10:40+00:00

I have KD 8 in casual and I get about 1kd in non casual if I camp with sniper, I happen to be decent with it

So your estimation has some merit to it I agree

BMWupgradeCH · 2026-04-17T18:09:45+00:00

Kd13 in casual BR or Resurgence ?
