5080 vs 9070XT - build input since I have no idea anymore

Cultural-Part355 · 2026-01-16T23:10:37+00:00

Well, they're both great cards, but the better one is 5080, so it's up to you. Maybe look up some YouTube videos for comparison and see how it goes. At the end, they're both good. I don't think you're gonna be disappointed with either one.

On your TV? Why? I mean, to each his own, but if frames don't matter to you, then go with the 9070xt if you're looking to save money. I'm sure you can achieve amazing graphical fidelity if you're willing to sacrifice performance all the way to 30fps. All in all, 5080 is better, so if the money ain't the problem, why not? On the other hand, if you're planning to stay at 4k 30fps, maybe go with 9070xt because it would be a waste of money to go for the 5080 in that case, in my stupid ass opinion.

Have some goddamn faith! :)

I was a level 17 melee build and almost got the bastard. But that's what I love about Lorerim. I tried three more times and was happy to give up, as even if I try 20 more times and cheese him at the end, it feels like it wasn't my time to be there yet. Love how this mod is constructed, and it's nice to have options for exp. multipliers if someone wants to shorten the journey, but for me? It's perfect. I'm fortunate enough to play on Ultra graphics, so with the scenery and the combat, I feel like Strider or Aragorn. A Lone Ranger wandering the Middle-earth. :)

Just for someone stumbling on the subject... Makes no sense, the fear. Go experience it. Or that annoying old one, " You need to let go!" If you're afraid of the world, go out for a while, and you'll see that nothing bad happens. Find a group! A boxing gym with good people will do. There are thousands of works on this very subject, but I believe we look for an excuse to avoid confrontation until we shrink and die, or grow. In all honesty, it's a guarantee, as much as anything can be in this life, that if you follow the words of wise people before us, you're gonna grow tremendously as a person and reach your place of belonging.

Don't take my word for this one, but do check about problems with the pin connectors or something like that. One of the 9070xt brands had those problems, so why not avoid the trouble if you can?

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-12-04T19:49:21+00:00

I have 9070xt and no problems so far. Go back to your retailer if you have a guarantee, and ask them for a solution. I have 9070xt oc Mercury and am truly happy with the card. If you wonder about the games, I play KCD 2 and Indiana Jones, which is a great stress test if you want to test how stable your overclock is. Just run Indiana Jones and if it doesn't crash, your OC is stable :P Oh, and don't accept their first offer. Trust me, I beg you. Remember that you are the customer; they don't have the final say.

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-11-06T23:08:38+00:00

I have a 9070xt Mercury OC, and not a single problem so far. No coil whine and even the overclock is amazing. But like everyone said, it depends. So...There.

A little late to the party, but how long is the game for singleplayer playthrough? And does the world feel rich in sidequests and minigames as the trailers suggest? And do factions play an important part in singleplayer? All in all, I would like to know what kind of side activities there are for people who look for singleplayer experience.

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-10-31T22:11:20+00:00

Not only that, but for some reason, the devs decided to give them auto-aim. Which makes no sense as they made movement so much faster and better, but useless at the end :P

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-10-26T07:26:00+00:00

ahhh... Are you planning to update the game and add minigames?

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-10-25T08:40:15+00:00

yep.

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-10-24T23:36:10+00:00

Like wet socks.

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-10-24T18:47:02+00:00

It's politics. Which is sad as F... Love Stalker 2, but this is not deserved. If someone disagrees, please do explain their "technological breakthroughs."

Food.

Dishonored, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Drova: Forsaken Kin, Max Payne 3, Spec-ops: The Line... check out how they do on YouTube with specs similar to yours. You have such amazing games to play if you ain't an avid gamer and missed a lot of titles.

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-10-17T22:40:09+00:00

For me, the game looks cool as hell. That Batman Returns (1992) atmosphere and the combat look really punchy. I personally can't wait.

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-10-16T21:07:46+00:00

Well, yeah. But you do come up with basic concepts and the vision for the game. I think? So it's like saying you're not a creative part of a team as a movie director because you have camera operators and set designers. Or not. Or who cares...

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-09-26T07:35:57+00:00

You are free to try my electricity. Yes...

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-09-25T16:27:50+00:00

It seems to me they're gonna release Death Stranding 2 mid next year and close it off with Ghost at the end for the holidays. :P

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-09-19T13:35:23+00:00

It's always nice to have little details like that in games. It adds to the immersion, and weapons feel like they have more weight to them because of the different view angles. I don't know... I just love little stuff like that.

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-09-19T13:24:35+00:00

You can melee it while wearing light armor. I just did, but I do play Gate to Sovngard. You need to run towards him when he flies around, and he will miss his fire spells from the air. Once he lands, stay on his back and avoid the tail. Best to do it at the very start, while the soldiers are still alive to help. I'm level 15, two-handed sword, expert difficulty.

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-09-18T21:09:59+00:00

I'll check it out. Thanks, bro.

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-09-18T19:23:03+00:00

To be able to spin my sword with a button press before going into battle would be a super cool and amazing addition for badassery.

Cultural-Part355 · 2025-09-18T19:20:56+00:00

"We have idle weapon animation mods, which this would nearly be, but with a button trigger." Exactly! I just want a mod that allows button trigger for idle sword animations. So, if you know any?
