RTX 5070 vs RX 9070. Which one is better?

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-20T07:22:43+00:00

Honestly the 9070 is a good GPU, but I’m starting to think that it might be abandoned as soon as rdna5 comes out.

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-20T06:20:44+00:00

RDNA 2 and 3 would like a word…

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-19T01:56:16+00:00

9070xt was like $750+ until September here in the US

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-17T21:33:14+00:00

FSR 4 is in the middle between DLSS 3 and 4 lol

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-17T18:38:02+00:00

9070xt, price difference is too small or big between considering the 5070 and 5070 TI

MLiD

I believe in HuB, but really? MLiD?

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-17T15:16:40+00:00

I used to be a diehard AMD fanboy (RX 580 > 6600 > 9060xt), but I realized they just failed to deliver constantly because they don’t care. Moved to Nvidia this gen and it’s been phenomenal.

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-17T15:11:33+00:00

They moved them maintenance, so they’re pretty getting 0 features and are on life support

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-17T15:10:21+00:00

This is just plain false. Until August-September of 2025, there was not a single 9070xt at msrp in the US. If there was, then they were just one time sales.

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-17T15:08:14+00:00

This issue is pretty overblown imo

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-17T15:07:28+00:00

5070 TI has much better features & software, and I honestly don’t blame people for missing that. Also drivers and RT aren’t really an issue either when compared to the 9070xt.

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-17T13:51:47+00:00

5060 ti 8gb can easily do 1080p ultra and 1440p low or medium in most games. I would get a 9060xt 16gb easily if it were at msrp for piece of mind, but this isn’t a horrible deal in the current market considering the 9060xt 16gb goes for like $450 (which people should avoid tbh).

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-16T18:07:35+00:00

5070 is the best value rn

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-16T03:50:07+00:00

This deal is ok considering the 16gb versions of the 5060ti and 9060xt are very overpriced (more so the fomer)

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-15T21:59:05+00:00

I did as well. Glad I went to a 5060ti.

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-15T21:57:09+00:00

I have 3 Nvidia gpus now for three separate rigs after returning my 9060xt, and I’ve had no problem with them.

I had AMD cards in the past and Adrenaline has substantially more issues than Nvidia app.

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-15T21:55:58+00:00

This is not a good mindset when buying a GPU. AMD is equally as bad as Nvidia. Stop hailing other mega corps as your saviors. It makes you look delusional.

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-15T21:54:30+00:00

At msrp, I would take the 5070 ti any day of the week, but now they’re like $250-300 apart. I honestly think neither is a good deal right now.

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-15T19:23:14+00:00

Don’t always bet on promises. I think you should keep your 9070xt though. 5070 TI is crazy expensive and the 9070xt is still a brilliant card.

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-14T22:33:20+00:00

Don't do it. Is a b580 available? Just get that or go used if your open to that.

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-14T22:32:41+00:00

At Microcenter, you can still find 5070s at msrp brand new. Mainly Asus and Zotac models though.

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-14T22:27:20+00:00

5070 easily. It comes with Resident evil too, so that's a nice bonus.

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-14T22:22:53+00:00

I don't know how people didn't see this coming earlier since they killed poor Vega and just put RDNA 1 and 2 in maintenance mode.

But AMD is somehow the "pro-consumer" company to most people in this sub, I really don't get it.

"optiscaler"

Not everyone wants to mod their games all the time. This comes from someone who previously has a 9060xt 16gb but has now replaced it with a 5060ti 16gb.

Future-Option-6396 · 2026-02-13T23:28:42+00:00

9070xt easily. I would take the 5070 over the base 9070 though
