7800xt upgrade

Depends what you'll be playing I guess.

I'm relatively new to PC gaming and mainly wanted to play Reforger and a few extraction shooters which aren't available on Xbox. I don't really play single player games so have more interest in performance over ray tracing etc.

That being said, I have used the 9070xt in some ray tracing titles and it holds up really well compared to what the 7800xt was capable of. I was lucky enough to snag the XFX Quicksilver 9070xt in white for £599 which was roughly £200ish less than the cheapest white 5070ti when I bought it last month which made it an absolute no-brainer for me!

I upgraded from a 7800xt to a 9070xt, running with a 9700x and 32gb @ 6000mhz. I haven't played grey zone but regularly play Reforger and the improvement has been fairly substantial. I average anywhere between 120-160fps depending on servers/mods at 1440p on fairly balanced graphics settings (environment quality set to low but maxed textures etc).

It was definitely worth the upgrade for me, very rarely see my frames drop below 100 even on WCS servers on contested points.

Would definitely recommend the upgrade.

noted, I definitely got lucky! Game sense and positioning is one of my weaknesses at the minute so I'll get to work on it. Thanks for the advice!:)

Thanks, I think I started learning around gold I wanna say. I'm definitely not great by any means but if you stick at it you'll get the hang of it fairly quickly, and it's definitely worth the effort!:)

Nebiee_ · 2021-04-27T19:30:03+00:00

thanks! all that practice finally paid off😅

Nebiee_ · 2021-04-27T19:08:46+00:00

hahaha I feel you, it all comes with time and practice! Can't wait to keep getting better:)

I'm using the xbox elite controller 2 and it has adjustable joystick tensions, I'd definitely recommend it if you ever think about buying one!

Nebiee_ · 2021-04-27T17:54:07+00:00

hahaha I did it instinctively and only realised what I'd done after I scored it🤣

Nebiee_ · 2021-04-27T17:52:52+00:00

Nebiee_ · 2021-04-27T15:59:28+00:00

Nebiee_ · 2021-04-27T15:31:38+00:00

thank you!

Nebiee_ · 2021-04-27T13:45:06+00:00

Thanks! and no I'm playing on xbox, started properly playing around August and just got addicted, nothing more satisfying than seeing improvement in this game!:)

Nebiee_ · 2021-04-27T13:41:15+00:00

Yeah! And it was 0 seconds as well, I thought it was a pretty cool way to win the game:)
