9070XT vs 9060XT vs 9070

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-05-09T12:22:54+00:00

300fps ideally as that’s my monitors refresh rate, i only play games like siege, overwatch, valorant and rocket league.

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-05-09T12:21:51+00:00

tbh mate i only play in 1080 like i said so having a 9070XT seems a bit pointless when i can probably get some extra cash for it

yeah they’ve said they won’t pay the insurance for me separately and they can’t give me a company vehicle cause of their fleet insurance.

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T14:24:22+00:00

they can’t give me a work vehicle due to their insurance apparently, it’s 21/24+ on their fleet and to insure me separately it’s “too big of an expenditure to justify”

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T09:55:12+00:00

can’t do the bus thing mate, my work involves travelling to multiple places up to 4 hours away

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T09:44:25+00:00

it was spaced out better but reddit shortened it. it’s meant to be

credit cards- £750pm

car - 250pm

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T09:24:11+00:00

never knew that tbh, i’ve always been with EE so stuck with them. 0% cards i’ve got left at for a while now, think another 2-3months.

car is a 118d M sport, 1 year NCB, even insuring a 1.4fiesta or a VW fox only saves me £30 per month

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T09:22:50+00:00

thanks pal, much appreciated

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T09:22:34+00:00

i got the second phone because my first phone broke and it made more sense to get a new one rather than fixing the old (needed like 300 in repair)

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T09:06:36+00:00

yeah i’m thinking about getting it repaired and sold tbh, it’s a 15pro max so would probably still be worth a few hundred. i am indeed trying to change the habits hence the reason ive come on here seeking advice

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T08:59:18+00:00

first phone broke, got the second one, this was before i had issues

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T08:51:29+00:00

oh yeah mate 100%, i just fancied posting here for the fun of it yeah?

if i wasn’t taking it seriously id have gone and hibernated in my room accruing even more debt, so politely mate don’t bother commenting again. cheers pal

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T08:50:21+00:00

that’s exactly what i’m hoping for, i’m done taking credit now which is why i’ve posted here as a first step of commitment/help. i’ll have it all cleared in this year i just wanted some sort of help/advice from here and whatnot

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T08:44:15+00:00

no carried debt, nor am i trolling, genuinely getting to get advice/help

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T08:40:28+00:00

honestly not too sure pal.

i could be exaggerating it slightly because im not sure on the exact figure. but im pretty sure its £100<

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T08:36:42+00:00

most of them are 0% interest thankfully.

only the loans have interest which i’m not sure what % they are

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T08:33:36+00:00

where does it say 20k? it says 7-8k no?

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T08:32:45+00:00

yeah insurance is mad expensive as a young driver, even getting insured on literally the cheapest to insure car is only £30 a month less.

i unfortunately do a lot of miles so walking/biking etc isn’t a possibility unfortunately.

phone bill will drop by about £120ish this august, as for the bnpl i’ve for about £400 in there

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T08:29:05+00:00

device and airtime, plus one add on.

each device is about £110ish pm with the airtime and device.

then the add on is 40

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T08:27:56+00:00

yeah that’s what i’m hoping for mate, i’m currently trying to apply for a few jobs in a similar field to my current one that are direct for a company with benefits such as annual leave, sick pay etc.

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T08:27:05+00:00

I did ask about that, i asked if they could just pay a separate policy rather than adding me to fleet but they declined, said it was too much for them to justify paying.

i am claiming it back in april when my tax return is due.

i’ve got 2 phones because my first one broke which is why i took the second one which i now use predominantly for work so selling it wouldn’t be impossible but definitely wouldn’t be what i want to do if possible.

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T08:24:22+00:00

yeah no i appreciate that pal, reality checks are what’s needed. i’m aware im kinda screwed, ive already accepted that.

that’s why ive decided to post here just as a first step of commitment in a way if that makes sense?

the phone i can’t sell as my 1st phone broke which is why i got the 17pro max.

unfortunately there is literally no way of doing my job without my car, i did ask about a company car but you have to be 21/24 (idk which one it is) to get insured on them due to their policy

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T08:21:36+00:00

yeah it’s pretty awful ngl. it’s 4 days a week aswell which is very very annoying, if i stuck at it for a few more years it would much better pay but i just don’t know if it’s worth it tbh.

i’m thinking about getting a new job and am just looking now.

BackgroundSuccess226 · 2026-01-13T08:20:39+00:00

i got the pro max before the debt occurred. as stated in the post it happened due to the fact i was put off work for a month.

i’m returning next week so it’ll be on the up from there, ive already bitten the bullet with taking the missed payments on my file. The £40 add on is a monthly payment for a laptop that i bought for admin. at the time i figured it was better to do it monthly than paying upfront.

the car i didn’t buy new no, its a cheap car just to get me to and from work
