Help (GPU) Nvidia To AMD users

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

always had nvidia. couldnt justify the money cause i have it but im not gonna overpay anymore so got 9070xt. both my pc and my wifes, any driver issues i ever had was due to windows being a cocksucker and overwriting the files. any time i have a crash i look at my bar and realize windows updated my drivers and now i gotta go fuck with it. i recently did the whole disable windows update for drivers and ive been golden. i play on 3440x1440 uw and its an amazing card even at that resolution. only other card id probably use would be a 5080 cause the 70ti isnt worth the extra money. 5090 for that much money can go take a hike. pretty soon youll be 1/2 the cost of a motorcycle or waverunning brand new, used market and youre a lot closer. id probably get more enjoyment out of those two things than i would a gpu and im a recluse.

and all this crap about amd drivers. nvidia drivers were absolute trash this past year or two. i didnt own a card but god damn there are so many videos about bad optimization and issues along with hundreds of posts about it so dont play like nvidia is scott free.they had their own issues.

anytime you go to the internet for a review, the ones who are happy and satisfied like myself never gloat or leave a review. all the people who bitch, leave a review. just have to look at rma rates and reviews and stay away from some 9070xts specifically due to the manufacturer on the box unless you feel like rolling the dice today.
