durmij Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I'm an AMD stan through and through. I like the way they approach things and Nvidia are massive pricks. New Ryzen is pretty great and I'm incredibly happy with my 3700x. But don't buy a 5700 xt, or a 5700. At least not for a considerable amount of times. The physical cards are meh, but even the partner models will suffer from the main issue, drivers. My 5700xt has been an unstable mess from the first day. I get blue screened or green screened at least once a day. I've had to reinstall windows after a corruption issue. Massive amounts of static and colour distortion when going into full screen, and I'm not even pushing the card that hard. 2.5k 60 fps in paradox titles is my average max gaming mode. But most of the crashes are during loads even lighter than that. Apparently buying a reference card is a noob mistake, so I imagine most of you will already know better. But yeah, don't buy a fricking reference card, especially a reference 5700xt. If anyone has any advice on what to replace it with, I would much appreciate it.

Ayayay Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 (edited) You could get a 2070(evil nvidia though) for a bit more money Edited August 23, 2019 by Malal Quote Orbis Wars | CSI: UPN | B I G O O F | PW Expert Has Nerve To Tell You How To Run Your Own Goddamn Alliance | Occupy Wall Street | Sheepy Sings TheNG - My favorite part is when Steve suggests DEIC might have done something remotely successful, then gets massively shit on for proposing such a stupid idea.

The card is a bit more stable now, but I can't get the utility to run to overclock it or even fix the busted fan curve. How does the 2070 handle streaming/recording? I'm glad AMD has the server game on lock because this is pitiful.
