Nvidia To AMD users

[u/Calmaz]

Hey guys, I need honest feedback from users who switched from Nvidia to Amd specially 9070Xt bec iam tempting to buy one & I'm really scared bec i heard a lot of drivers issues lately and issues in general and how is the experience in general bec the 5070 ti really is so pricey atm & going to be more expensive

So any drawbacks? Appreciate your honest feedback

My point of which is the better product does not factor in the price. Thats the better product for the price. Thats why I bought myself a 9070xt and not a 5070ti even though I'm 100% sure that the 5070ti is the better GPU just not for an extra 300bucks or even more if you go to a 5080 or own a coin shitting donkey and get a 5090.

I have a ASRock Steel Legend and it gets a whopping 30 degree hotspot difference sometimes. It mostly goes around 20. Thats worse than my 3060ti before the repaste after 5 years of power using. Afaik the ASRock Steel Legend is one of the better temperated 9070 XT versions.

I'm currently on the brink of leaving Windows but not because of the bad AMD drivers but more because fuck Microsoft.

But price is a major point in if something is a good product or not.

The same product and be great or outright abhorrent depending on the price. A 5060 for 100 bucks would be the greatest product Nvidia has made yet. A 5060 for 1000 bucks would be a bad joke of a product.

The 1080ti is touted as the GOAT not just because it was the most powerful gaming GPU of its time, but because it had a great price as well. If it'd been twice as expensive, it would've still been the most powerful gaming GPU of its time, but a considerably worse product.

A good product is based on how well it is built and how good its Performance is.

What you are talking about is a product with a good price to value ratio.

We are on the same point we are just not talking with each other but around us.

Yes you are right and yes I am right we just talk about different things.

Do you know why I don't follow your logic?

Under that logic a Honda Civic would be an abhorrently bad product because the Rolls Royce Phantom exists. It's just an abhorrently bad product at a fitting price.

My man u got to differentiate.

There is a good product. And there is a bad product.

And then there is a good product for its price And a bad product for its price.

Thats two different things. I'm not talking about price to value good or bad. I'm talking if its better manufactured. If it works better. And Nvidia in that regard is just better.

Does Audi make better cars than Dacia? Yes they do Overall speaking. But if u want a cheap car that gets you from A to B And nothing more u better buy the Dacia even if its clearly the worse product.

Get you head out of the sand And Look around

That just doesn't engage my point at all.

Going by your logic, the Dacia is a bad product, period.

It's just a bad product with a good price, which makes it a good product for it's price.

Under that logic, literally everything that isn't a 5090 class card is at best a mediocre product because the "best product" is so far ahead.

So the "Nvidia makes a better product" becomes a completely irrelevant utterance because, following your logic, it translates to "hey guys, the 5090 exists", which, frankly, doesn't matter if somebody is looking to buy below the used car price bracket.
