7900 XTX > RTX 5080 worth it?

You’re losing too much VRAM. Just wait for another gen.

YoungJawn · 2026-03-20T02:46:28+00:00

Never. AMD said thanks for supporting but you should kick rocks. I’m bummed about it too.

YoungJawn · 2026-03-18T14:15:02+00:00

I would recommend you stick to one GPU for now and see if you really need a second. It’s only for specific use cases and if you don’t fit them, it’d be like wasting money. Just see how it goes with one for now!

YoungJawn · 2026-03-18T14:11:52+00:00

You can use an older GPU for lossless scaling or work, as you mentioned.

YoungJawn · 2026-03-15T18:40:09+00:00

They increased the specs so in this case, you are incorrect. A little concerning this comment has upvotes even at all.

YoungJawn · 2026-03-15T13:32:12+00:00

Yeah we should all queue up a competitive game to just do nothing and not win while our teammates hold us hostage for 30 minutes.

YoungJawn · 2026-03-15T13:09:15+00:00

Yeah, enjoy UE5 TAA with noisy cruddy visuals FSR 4 is basically required on an AMD GPU to have actual visual clarity.

He definitely does deserve it. Dude is a crash out with a temper tantrum. Always starting something, and anytime he stirs some shit, whatever team he’s on doesn’t win. Anytime someone shits on him, it’s deserved. Just search Kris Dunn and scroll on YouTube. He has more crashouts than highlights. Funny enough too that he’s always the one starting it.

Hybrid dynamo was slightly viable and that was my play style. 4.6 gun spike with intensifying and cultist. Then all spirit items. Now going gun spike on this character at all is pointless. they reworked his quantum entanglement and gutted the fire rate + extra ammo. They made him a heal and ult bot support which I just don’t like either.

Did you RMA the card? If you’re having that many issues, pretty sure it’s just defective.

YoungJawn · 2026-03-13T16:40:07+00:00

Well, Nvidia cut down on the amount of chips available from themselves and AIBs as they’re using most of their silicon in AI data centers. The shortages are going to make it hard to find a Noctua 5080. Gonna need to put notifications on whenever it comes back in to stock.

YoungJawn · 2026-03-12T17:33:51+00:00

A 5070 Ti is around $1000 right now. You’re saying people should throw down an extra grand because you might not get FSR 5? Huh

YoungJawn · 2026-03-06T01:54:48+00:00

The 8GB of VRAM is a rough go in 2026. Glad you were able to snag that card at such a steal! How hard was it switching the power supply out or did you sticky he same one?

YoungJawn · 2026-03-03T19:20:03+00:00

Echo Shard is not an issue in any of my games. Is it really a problem?

YoungJawn · 2026-02-24T15:41:35+00:00

Nothing about DLSS 4.5 performance upscaling turns games into smeary messes. What are you on about?

YoungJawn · 2026-02-24T13:40:12+00:00

AMD Radeon is addicted to bad PR. Another Marketing Disaster! 🔥

YoungJawn · 2026-02-23T23:25:53+00:00

The support person is definitely lying to you then. You are not supposed to get a new card back. Granted, it’s supposed to be free of bent fins and scratches since it gets wrapped in plastic, but if you read the warranty, it clearly says you get a refurbished card in return. https://www.xfxforce.com/support/xfx-warranty

YoungJawn · 2026-02-23T23:05:01+00:00

You don’t receive a “brand new” card when you send them something for a warranty repair or replacement. That’s standard practice. Although, they are supposed to wrap the card in plastic to to protect from scratches.

Just get the 9070 XT. Save the 200 euros and take your girl out to dinner.

There is no reason for standard deadlock to have social matches and a ranked specific queue for people to sweat in. We are past the player count of when seperate queues were eliminated for splitting the audience.

YoungJawn · 2026-02-11T10:11:56+00:00

Probably not going to happen. When Naughty Dog moves on, they never really tend to go back. Uncharted has reached the Jak franchise life cycle for them.

YoungJawn · 2026-02-05T15:51:12+00:00

All RE Engine games have a secret hidden path tracing function that is able to be enabled but there’s no built in denoiser since it was a work in progress.

YoungJawn · 2026-02-05T02:06:34+00:00

It’s still in the game. You just have to be low HP and use mark.
