The 9070xt comes nowhere near close to the performance of the 5090.
It doesn’t even match the performance of the 4090.

3k ? about 2.7
For something about twice as fast (and more with RT) yeah they are at the same bullshit price to performance level. The 9700xt shouldnt be more than 450€ Yet it is twice that

Just upgraded from a 2080 super to a 9070 xt and holy shit i did not expect it to be so massive. It’s almost twice the size of 2080 lol. Thankfully it still fit in my case just fine. Tomorow i’ll see how big the difference in power is.

Maybe if the 5070 ti was like 1200 and 9070 xt 850 i would get it but eeh 5090 is a whole different level + most people arent buying 1 and people who have money to throw around have no reason to get a 9070 xt except support AMD if they rlly care
TheMightyRed92
9070 is nowhere near as good as 5090. maybe compare it to the price of 5070 ti..would be better

I’ll take the raytracing, DLSS and frame gen.

Eh… Bad meme…. The performance of a 5090 compared to a 9070 is abysmal…. And it also depends on what you want to do.
3D work/video edition? Nvidia (in any card higher than a 050 series) wins by a large margin (those CUDA cores are amazing).
Edit: Now that I think about it, the only pro to AMD nowadays is price and probably VRAM. Because after that, they are behind Nvidia (efficiency, capacity of producing power, Ai, 3d, rendering).

Is the 9070xt bad? I keep seeing people shitting on it, but assumed it was Nvidia fan boys. I’m in need of a new card soon and was thinking of the 9070xt.

False comparison.
xstangx
Yeah, some people want the best or nothing…. The 5090 isn’t 3x the performance of a 9070XT or 5070ti. But it cost 3x as much. People who buy it aren’t looking for the best deal. They are knowingly overpaying for the best. All technology is like this. You pay a premium for the best. If that is what you want then you should get it. No big deal. We all know the best FPS per $$$ is the 9070 or 9070XT, alongside the 5070ti. The last I splurged for the best was the 1080ti. I rest my case as being the smartest buyer of all time lol

Pointless meme, those are made for 2 different types of users. It’s like a BMW M3 vs a the top of the line Ferrari.

Its like comparing a bike& motorcycle not even same level
As much as i like 9070xt this meme is ridiculous

Now put Intel in there as well.

Wait, you guys find GPUs in stock?

i have a feeling i’m gonna be hanging on to my 3080ti for another decade
Actual_Doctor_4598
I went for the 7900xtx and wow this shit is insane in Linux and absolutely everything I throw at it.
max1001
….
At $850, why wouldn’t you get a 5070 ti.
FuzzyClam17
I’m so thankful for my $865 7900xtx
ExtraTNT
2 uses: ai and cuda…
For cuda use a card from last gen… for ai: well, 5060 ti has probably best value, followed by the 5080… 5090 only if you need the vram, but at this point you are better off with a professional card…

I’m upgrading from my 1070ti to the rx 9070 xt, only because the 4070ti super is out of stock

I had a chance to get a 5090 this week at msrp but I just couldn’t justify paying over 3k
ThePierrezou
I mean both are shitty prices
WickedTeddyBear
I would never put 3k for a graphic card… my 4080s super was 1k and it hurt me. We have to stop buying cards like that the prices are going mental.
Machina-Dea
This makes literally no sense,. Like don’t get me wrong the 9070XT is a brilliant card especially for the price but the 5090 is for like top tier high end gaming rgs which the 9070XT just isn’t. I can’t remember exactly but it’s about on par with the 5070, which is pretty damn good especially for the price but it’s nowhere near the 5090.
MakimaGOAT
tbf most ppl buying the 5090 for 3 grand have fuck all money and dont care in the slightest, they just want the most.
Tough_Wolverine_5609
A 9070 xt is only good value below 650 dollars, anything higher than just get a 5070 ti which beats it at ray tracing and raster. Also 850 dollars is the price point you could find a 7900 xtx which beats both gpus in rasterised gaming

I’m taking my 5070 FE with a free copy of doom the dark ages for $550 USD and am EXTREMELY happy about it 🙂
PrettyAwesomeGuy
Why wouldn’t I just get a 5070ti for 950 bucks over a 9070xt?
AverageLAHater
If you live in a vicinity of a microcenter, 7900XTX sells for 999.
Lavid_Danders
That’s what I thought, but mine is pretty small. Tbh, I’m afraid I got fucked over and bought a fake one or something. It isn’t bulky at all.
MultiMarcus
Girlie pop, those are completely different universes of hardware power. The 9070 XT is a killer product I often recommend to people looking for a midrange PC, but it just can’t compete with the 4090 or 5090. arguably with the 5080, but that overclocks quite a bit further making the gap a bit wider.

The 5090 and 9070XT are not competing products. The 9070XT is competition for the 5070/5080

How come I now look like the guy with no clothes and homeless now?
I mean, yeah, but also people driving expensive cars, flying in the business+ class, etc. There are folks to whom couple grand difference is nothing.
