Gigabyte Gaming OC AMD Radeon RX 9070 16GB

My husband has been wanting to upgrade his setup for a while, so we picked this up to replace his old card. First off, this thing is massive. I was actually a little worried it wouldn't fit in the case, so definitely check your space before you buy it because it takes up a lot of room. Once he got it in, though, the difference was instant. The games look so much sharper and everything just runs smoother without that annoying stuttering we used to see. Even though it has three big fans, it’s honestly really quiet. I was expecting it to sound like a jet engine when he’s playing for hours, but I barely hear it whirring. It feels like a solid, heavy-duty piece of equipment that’s going to last us a long time. Lastly, it is MUCH CHEAPER and AFFORDABLE than nvidia 5070!!

Very nice GPU, very nice aesthetics, it's a little over 11 inches long, 2 slot wide, so not big or bulky or anything like some of the other models, very light, doesn't need a support stand. Will very easily fit into any setup. The RBG logo is kinda ehhh, not really impressive or anything, but I don't really care. Driver stability is excellent atm, haven't had any issues with all the games i've tested, no crashing, no weird jank stuff. Also since i was upgrading from another AMD card i straight just dropped it in, no driver updates, no having to DDU previous drivers. It's very stable. The card runs very cool, playing warhammer 40k space marines 2 and helldivers 2 at max settings in 1440p, during long gaming sessions around 3-4 hours, the card never would go above 57c with the fans hovering around 1000 to 1400rpm, so not even breaking a sweat. That said the performance is very nice, native in the above games your looking at 90 to 130fps w/ a decent CPU like a 5700x3D. It only draws around 245 watts at max, so having a lower watt psu like a 600 or 650 watt is completely fine, if you like to play with your FPS capped at like 60 or 90, wattage is even less of a concern. I use the card mostly for playing ffxiv and it runs like a dream, anywhere from 145 to 220 fps varying from zones/dungeons/raids etc. I like to keep my fps capped at 90 on ffxiv, and the fans don't even kick on half the time with the GPU sitting at 54c and the wattage less than a 100 most of the time. This GPU is very efficient. So far am enjoying this GPU a lot. I paid $669 as *sold by amazon*. I wouldn't recommend buying from sellers as the prices are a scam, wait and buy it through amazon.

It’s all around a great card! Great middle ground bang for buck!

Worked perfectly. Got the game code for Crimson Desert. Really bumped up the overall performance of my system. Huge upgrade from a 4060.

Has a good amount more power than the 5070 and can basically run any game at 1440p but lacks the reliability. The drivers crash much more often than the 5070 and sometimes gets annoying.
