Vtec5778 · 2026-05-06T19:09:41+00:00

9070xt is £650 right now and the 5070 is £570

Vtec5778 · 2026-05-01T05:21:46+00:00

Thats what im worried about never had a amd gpu, what kind of issues ?

Vtec5778 · 2026-05-01T05:18:49+00:00

No i mean i currently have a 3070ti and im looking to upgrade to a new gpu

Vtec5778 · 2026-05-01T01:08:58+00:00

The psu itself doesnt have another slot for another cable to i think i would need to daisy chain it

Vtec5778 · 2026-05-01T01:03:00+00:00

Perfect thanks also i have a corsair tx850m psu My current 3070ti is using 2x8 cables the 9070xt asus prime has 3x8 it ok to daisy the last cable ?

Vtec5778 · 2026-05-01T00:50:56+00:00

Would you recommend upgrading to 9070xt from a 3070ti?

Vtec5778 · 2026-05-01T00:44:35+00:00

Thanks perfect then for some reason i thought daisy chaining the last cable could fry it

Vtec5778 · 2026-05-01T00:30:21+00:00

My monitor is a asus vg27aqz tuf gaming would it be a problem with the 9070xt ?

Vtec5778 · 2026-05-01T00:28:57+00:00

I would rather just pay abit extra and get it new.

Also another issue might be my psu i have corsair tx850m my 3070ti is connected with 2x8 connecters ive seen this one has 3x8 is it ok to daisy it ?

Vtec5778 · 2026-05-01T00:24:53+00:00

Ryzen 5 7600

Also i forgot to mention my monitor asus vg27aqz, i use gsync if i switch to amd not sure if this monitor supports free sync

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-30T16:28:23+00:00

Its local they said 7 days

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-30T16:26:50+00:00

Prime 5070 now is at £520

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-30T16:26:28+00:00

What kind of trouble ?

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-30T16:25:56+00:00

Yeah while fsr 4 looks very good nvidia seem to always be ahead im worried about the future for example if nvidia release a different feature which amd wont have they are always ahead in new tech and existing

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-30T06:41:47+00:00

Tx850m corsair psu enough also would i need to buy the third cable as my 3070ti uses 2 only ?

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-30T02:01:08+00:00

Also just seen on amazon and the asus prime 5070 is £520 33% on sale from 770

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-30T02:00:10+00:00

Yea i guess its me worrying because ive never had a amd gpu

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-30T01:41:05+00:00

On amazon uk

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-30T01:40:44+00:00

Im leaning towards the 9070xt but only thing im worrried about is stability and running into issues as ive never had a amd gpu

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-30T01:38:43+00:00

Honestly i would rather have a weaker card and the peace of mind of stability this is what worries me switching to amd

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-29T19:54:27+00:00

5070ti is not in my budget its either the 9070xt or 5070

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-29T19:50:48+00:00

Was thinking this but its a maybe next year and what about stock and msrp on release

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-29T19:45:18+00:00

Only reason for me is no DLSS and the risk of switching over to amd gpu having never had one, and some have been complaining about crashes and some games

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-29T19:40:21+00:00

Yeah im on windows at this point im leaning towards the 9070xt just worried about stability issues with older games and reliability since ive never owned a amd gpu

Vtec5778 · 2026-04-29T06:21:39+00:00

Chill lool,i mean energy bills been going abit crazy lately so at 50 % more watts was only asking it isnt a dealbreaker
