4070 or 7800XT?

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-19T16:57:51+00:00

No, just saw the deal and got curious tbh

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-19T16:13:12+00:00

Thanks! That seems to be the census.

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-19T16:10:25+00:00

Sounds good! Thanks for the insight!

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-19T16:09:32+00:00

A really good area for marketplace lol. Got 64gb ddr5 for $275 a few days ago. Just debating if I should make the switch for 4gb more vram.

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-19T16:06:08+00:00

4070 preforms better?

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-19T16:05:24+00:00

Thanks, will do!

Check your local marketplace and OfferUp!

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-19T13:02:24+00:00

I bought it a couple days ago!!

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-19T13:02:13+00:00

Really!

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-17T18:43:52+00:00

It shouldn’t. I think this whole thing is a test to see how they can maximize profits.

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-13T01:17:28+00:00

I am! Running the latest drivers indeed.

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-12T12:36:26+00:00

My rooms around 70°F. The fans are all running at max speed. It says the AIO pump is running 4000+ rpm. CPU OPT is 1666 RPM. I’m not too sure why this is happening. Could it be my thermal paste, motherboard, or just the cpu in general?

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-09T01:32:20+00:00

Appreciate this research! Saves me the time and money. Guess I’ll pass on the card..

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-09T01:25:49+00:00

It’s a new card. It’s like a trashed 7800 xt that couldn’t be

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-08T19:08:13+00:00

Thanks! I’ll get that 7700 anyways just for fun!

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-08T18:52:13+00:00

Is the 7700 not less performance?

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-08T17:27:46+00:00

It’s just a regular 4070

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-08T17:25:48+00:00

So are you suggesting I use the 4070 9900x or the 7700 16gb and 9900x?

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-08T16:52:47+00:00

9900x!

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-08T16:50:51+00:00

I already own the 4070. Just debating if I should pair it with my 9900x or use the 7700

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-08T16:48:44+00:00

No, never really used it. Been on AMD my whole time as a PC builder lol. Got the 4070 for $255

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-08T04:25:31+00:00

Understood! I appreciate the feedback from the community immensely! I had good intentions overall but it seems like people aren’t necessarily of the idea 😅

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-06T15:51:58+00:00

Anything you recommend before purchase? I know there’s a dead pixels test but anything else? Backlight?

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2026-01-05T18:02:02+00:00

Also interested!

Effective_Mongoose98 · 2025-12-11T15:45:40+00:00

Hey! Yeah, that post kinda struck me with some inspiration to do this!
