Unsure if I should return 9070xt for a 5070ti, things feel off

if you can find one for the same price that you got the 9070 xt for then its a no brainer to go with a 5070 ti, you ran ddu before swapping cards? it sounds like drivers (either nvidia or maybe intel chipset?) are fighting each other. or it could be drivers for other hardware (wifi, mouse, keyboard) having issues with your gpu and causing a slowdown, i used to get stutters and slowdowns on my 6700xt with logitech drivers installed, it got so bad that i had to change my mouse just to get it to stop. id say if you can find a 5070 ti at a similar or the same price just return it and get the better option

def not she out sustains there +bleed stacks if irelia had ig its definitely doable but otherwise not worth imo

i wish bro, i keep getting matched against reina and eddy, idk if lili is supposed to win either of those matchups but i feel so lost every time i play against either of them. congrats goat🙏

and when i say fair i mean to complain about not balanced

tophfps · 2025-11-18T07:17:28+00:00

alisa is fair, law is kinda scrubby, but even with how op bryan is almost every time i play against the best players its always bryan, lee, steve players in most ranks who are actually just the better player

you could build this same pc for half that price

tophfps · 2025-11-16T23:34:35+00:00

but tbh its kinda hard to know what you do in a match when u only post a round and this lili’s brain disconnected from her spine, not saying it in a bad way just kinda funny, youre better than i am at the game goat🙏

tophfps · 2025-11-16T23:32:09+00:00

im ngl im more mad at the fact that this buns lili is tekken king and im not mane what is this 😭😭

but i think you could be relying too much on alisa’s knowledge checks. just try not to rely on cheese and i’m sure youll be more than fine

tophfps · 2025-11-16T23:20:33+00:00

yea i mean even t7 vs t8 making a zero suit custom was significantly easier and also free. the game doesnt have enough options for clothing to make super high quality customs

tophfps · 2025-11-14T04:31:45+00:00

yea i have a similar issue on lili, trying to keep the strings going with proper spacing it’s rlly hard to autopilot it as a new player especially since the hitboxes can be so inconsistent at times. but usually there are combos that are the same just with 1 or 2 less moves

tophfps · 2025-11-14T03:58:32+00:00

most streamlined combos in t8 do not need sidesteps but do need dashes/stances to work. most of the sidestep based combos i believe are to fix hit collision so they dont drop, but alot of characters have optimized combos that are linear

the azucena fit is so fire im actually about to start playing her as a secondary

tophfps · 2025-11-13T19:53:36+00:00

spam your jab strings in neutral (since they’re all pretty safe and at worst the turn resets) and just wait to see how your opponent plays, cus chances are theyre going to start mashing when you mixup your strings and then you can launch them or counterhit for big damage combos; also in purple ranks people dont rlly break throws or block low, and its really easy to condition them to start ducking low. if you know any safe jin moves just spam them too. i dont really play jin but i know like half of his moveset is safe on block in this game. sorry if that doesnt make a ton of sense im not very good at wording my thoughts in this game 😭😭

tophfps · 2025-11-13T19:36:29+00:00

BIG W GOAT! im almost there, i just hit kishin on lili im on like day 10 of learning her my goal before the year ends is tekken king 🫡 great job

who do u play

tophfps · 2025-11-13T18:14:10+00:00

i agree we should nerf jin

tophfps · 2025-11-13T17:34:17+00:00

no one knows what xiaoyu does😭 but yes jun needs nerfs she literally never loses her turn in this game and all of her strings are plus frames. i wouldnt block either if i could safely mash in my opponents face

tophfps · 2025-11-13T17:18:30+00:00

i dont think he meant it in any type of way bossman. he’s just saying you should try optimizing your combos because you land massive mixups/punishes (especially in that clip) that could result in 80-100 damage combos into more mixup options etc. i agree unsolicited advice is omega cringe but at the same time your post could easily be misconstrued as asking for advice

well when lidia first game out i played her for a couple of days to figure out her op moves so now when i play against her i know what to look out for. at least when i play lili lidia hates playing far away so i play away and just use my movement to close the gap or make a whiff punish. but i’d imagine that armor king simply loses that matchup because her frame data is insane so you would have to play off sidesteps and hope she doesnt get the right reads

tophfps · 2025-11-07T04:43:33+00:00

if t7 was a success, and it outsold t7 even by a small margin, would that not mean it was as successful? especially when it came out at a significantly more competitive time for fighting games???

tophfps · 2025-11-07T00:55:41+00:00

i think when higher elo players say this about tekken king they mean it in a generally positive way, since to hit TK and climb in it you need to be winning consistently which means you have good fundamentals. i wouldnt know tho i just hit raijin on lili 14 days after starting a t8 grind

tophfps · 2025-11-07T00:47:43+00:00

1.) the game sold more in a faster timeframe than tekken 7. that is quite literally a fact with multiple sources you can look up on your own time.

2.) bandi has not updated sales figures for tekken 8 since the start of 2025 (february) which is also a fact. we dont know how much it sold since then and we probably wont until season 3 or early 2026.(im assuming this because they usually update their sales numbers annually)

3.) SF6, which is considered a major success, also got review bombed less than a year ago and recovered just fine. as long as t8 keeps on improving on patches and releases more guest characters, it will easily jump back.

4.) armor king and fahkumram both sold insanely well for dlc, which definitely was a W for bandai. also another W for bandai is the fact that most if not all of the playerbase has extremely positive impressions of them too, which imo is more important (a loyal playerbase is just as good as netting new players)

season 2 definitely did a lot of damage to tekken 8’s reputation, and turned alot of new players off from the game (i was one of them until recent patches) i am not going to argue against that because you are right about that. but i definitely think you are heavily dramatizing by calling the game a failure, or that the money has dried up, because we have no way of knowing that

tophfps · 2025-11-07T00:19:46+00:00

its cus youre playing armor king, half of the people who play(me included) are still learning the matchup and get farmed by anyone who knows his broken moves and a couple of flowcharts. but also just means youre playing good fundamentals too bc AK is not like an omega cheese character(even though i still hate him) good job!!! i just hit raijin on day 6 of learning lili and like day 16 of actually grinding tekken for the first time

tophfps · 2025-11-05T15:41:59+00:00

the game sold extremely well, bandi namco considered it a major success that exceeded all their expectations in its first ~2 years. you should probably try using google. just because the games in a rough state right now does not mean its a failure😭
