Working on episode 3 of the $100 flip up challenge at the moment, crazy deals unfolding as we speak
Ohhh flipping Yes City! Enjoying the long awaited series. Give us some more Sir!
Hi, can u explain me how could I break the motherboard with just replacing gpu, i was very careful did not hit anything, after that i got cpu led light and power not goin to cpu( its not heating), how its possible?
It's a great time for deals! I just got a full pc with a 5600, 3070, 32gb trident, noctua cooler, 1.5tb ssds in a white nzxt case for $450 USD. A little cleaning and its getting listed for $750 today.
@@Asquadron1 this is a wild guess, but check the motherbord standoffs, if some is on the wrong place it might short the morherboard. I might be wrong. Then the usual. Reseat the ram,and mb powe and cpu power cables. Also the front panel cables if it does not start at all with the power Button.
@@JimboSliceee23 i already send mobo to the warranty 2-4 weeks, see whats happens
Hey Bryan. One thing with the Radeon cards is that you don't need MSI Afterburner at all. You can do all the undervolting and onscreen overlays directly through the Radeon software.
Definitely, I just personally do prefer driver only install with afterburner over adrenalin myself, since I would opt not to use relive as capture.
JUST THE VIDEO I NEEDED! Was looking at cards the other day and can't decide! Thanks, Bryan! ;)
The VRAM difference is going to make a difference in the future for sure
Once a 32gb console comes out yeah.
Until then 12gb is enough since that's the vram usage target for console's 16gb unified memory, and those assets are basically straight-up ported over to PC. Very few titles will bother enhancing assets above and beyond that for PC.
By that time, these cards will probably not be strong enough to drive desirable frame rates. I mean, look at the 1% lows, the 4070 is often beating the 7800XT despite the hampered Memory Bus..which matters more than people give credit for.
Textures on high instead of Ultra at 1440p is not as big of a deal as stability, emulation performance, and features.
Then again, this is assuming prices are similair.
@@Greez1337what are you on about? Sufficient vram buffer lets you max out texture quality which is the most visually impactful graphics setting with no performance loss, doesn't matter how strong the gpu itself is.
The power consumption difference is going to make the 4070 free if you game for 10 hours a day. Within the period of 3 years you save 1 Megawatt of electricity , in my opinion, this beats the difference from vram if you live in an area with expensive electricity.
@@mrmrmrcaf7801What? :D official tdp difference is 63W. Iven if it were 100 Watts difference in power usage that wpuld affect alot. 🙈 100Wx10 hours is 1Kwh in 10 hours. In my county price is 0,15€ per KWh. So you would save 0,15€ per day. If you playd 10hours a day (wich almost nobody does) you would save 51,1euros a year. Three years would be 153€. Do you pay like 5 times more in electricity?
I think in these comparison videos it is also probably important to note that your CPU matters.
If you have an AMD CPU you can leverage SAM and get a decent performance boost increases across a lot of titles.
I got a pre made PC recently with a 4070 ti.
It runs things well. Red Dead 2 on alllll Max/ultra settings and played some Cyberpunk today on MAX settings. Bouncing between 50-70 fps.
Dropped a few settings slightly and held a smooth 60-70 for the rest of play.
great comparison.. thanks..
Pumping out the videos lately dude, thanks!
You actually get better performance and higher clocks when undervolting the Phantom Gaming card. I've noticed you pick up a couple frames when gaming while lowering hotspot temps. It's the sort of thing you similarly when you use PBO on the Ryzen CPUs. I've seen clock speed as high as 2711so far MHz just by undervolting.
I have a 7800XT (Gigabyte OC) got back on sale also. I could see the 4070 for a flip. 7900XTX I really like that card too just sometimes you don't need more than the 7800XT to casually play certain games in 1440P.
did u got any issues like driver issues or anything else im planing to upgrade too and im between rx 7800xt and rx 4070 i see people say thay have issues with rx 7800 xt can u share ur experience pls ?
One of the driver issues is specifically with WoW most people are running on DX11, 7800XT is stable on 2nd latest. Avatar will crash if I record/browse on 7900XTX December Avatar minimal driver with OBS open. BG3 have had crash DX12 Windows, works better Linux Vulcan. Not perfect but good value. Would check your games if there are issues. 7800XT has been a pretty good deal, raided on it just fine DX11, Discord, browser all open no issues.

7800XT has been good. (7900XTX have had some games driver issues: Avatar recently) There is a Blizzard bug with WoW this patch where I'm running DX11 November driver on the XT, but that is game specific. I daily drive XT for 1440P. @@screamyscreamy7451
Im playing on a 1920x1080 280hz screen with this card but i can max out any game. ill get a secondary 4k screen or a 2560x1080 120hz screen. just to run some RPGs on it.
Im awed bye the performance. But i was also good a few years ago with a 1080. that card still blasting most games.
@@screamyscreamy7451 I have this 7800XT saphire version: "don't buy, they have a lot of bugs, unplayable...." Just a lots of shit. I don't had any issue with my old r9 380, and i don't have any issue with the 7800xt too. Just buy and play.
Videos are coming out like breads from the factory and I like it!
Hello Brian, I have recently watched a video you posted a few years ago on a workstation with a Xeon e5-2699 v3 and I looked on eBay in the USA and they currently go for less than $40 USD. I would love to see a new video on the topic of old e5 v3 and v4 CPUs to see how they hold up nowadays.
Love the daily content! Keep it up.
smashing out the content!
I think you just helped me map out my entire build.... I was having trouble picking out a motherboard and I had no idea DDR5 7600 even existed, can I ask which brand/model ram you used?... Is the 1000w psu necessary or was it something you had already in a build and decided to go ahead and use it? I was gonna go 14th series 14700k but I have no problem dropping it to a 13900k at all....
IMO, AMD has come a long way regarding driver stability and performance bang for buck. Nvidia has become overpriced and are using their reputation and fanbase over the years to justify their prices. Plus, their higher end RTX 'BBQ' 12VHPWR connectors skewed me away. Speaking of the used market, I wanted to buy a used RTX 3080ti from FB marketplace however some are asking ~$1K for it. Rather then getting the run around from FB, delays in response ...etc, people are still cocky in relation to their prices and its saleability, so I jumped on the RX7800XT new for cheaper with full 3 years warranty. Best decision I've made!
...and that's my thinking exactly! I'm upgrading my HTPC so RT isn't an issue. I've gone all 4K and HDR, so the 16gb VRAM and 256 bit memory bus on the Radeon will add the extra 'muscle'. 👍👍❤❤
i love me some bbq, just not in my graphics card lol
Just bought the 7800XT to replace my trusty GTX1080. Man, I dont know why people are talking shit about drivers or VR support, cuz this card just rips through all games that I throw at it at max settings.
I'm still digging my XFX 7800XT and get high frames on Ultra Settings in most games I've tried.
I am still happy with my 6900XT liquid devil. It does a fantastic job of everything i throw at it.
It's legit a top 10 card even on par or beats the 3090ti or 4070ti. Especially if you oc clock it, it's crazy. I sold my 6900xt yesterday to get a xtxh card or 6950xt for more oc room. 😂
My 6900 XT Waterforce has a XTXH die.
I'm running rx6900 xt toxic le, stable oc 2.711ghz.
@@muramusan mine has a very minor OC on the core and ram maxed the the max whist the card is also undervolted . I have found that gives the best performance whist keeping the wattage low .
@@JukkaXhow far you were able to push it?
Thanks for making this video. I bought two SFF RTX 4070s (one's made by ASUS and the other one's made by Zotac - both dual fan and runs very cool) when they first came out for a couple of builds, and looking at the numbers, I'll take it! Drawing much less power for the RTX 4070, I think it's a real winner!
I went nitro+ 7800 xt with the green team having 80% of the gpu market share plus crazy prices on the high end gpu's i decided to support red. I popped an OC on my gpu undervolt etc in The last of us i got an avg of 82 fps 1440 ultra. 4070 ti manages 78 without an oc granted, but still price to performance is nice.
got a 7800xt when it was on sale over black week, and i most say i love it, just the adrenalin software itself made me enjoy the switch from my 3070
you have any driver issues yet?

hasn't watched full yet, do you use the latest bios for this, I'm interested on the bios update about power consumption
lastest vbios? I wasn't aware of any vbios updates for the cards.
thank you for this review was thinking of going for a 7800 xt but i think i changed my mind with that power consumption
I wonder if paired with an Amd cpu of the same caliber and with Sam on if you could get better performance
my Asus TUF 7800xt White is a beast, running it undervolted @1040mv and it clocks up to 2720mhz without messing with the clocks, UV was enough. Also stays incredible cool like in the low 50s and hotspot high 60s.
I would love to grab a AMD ASRock card if they were on the shelf. Here in japan they are not walk in and buy the same day where I am. Has a free Copy of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora With Radeon 7700 or above.
I'm surprised you didn't take the 6800 XT into consideration as it can be found on sale to get rid of it
Is that aussie summer sun beating down on you? Glowing like a christmas tree hahaha. Great video, would personally take the 4070 for the resale when I want to upgrade, but it's a close one.
I am very very happy with my 7800xt red devil LE OC'd to 3010mhz with a 1000mV underclock.
I get anywhere from 240-300 fps in MW3 with only a 7600x
what u think how long can my gpu last i play 12 hours a day
I bought the 7800 xt last month, a beast so far in all games :D hade nvidia 3050 before , a massive boost in fps :D
Is R5 5600 and 7800xt overkill for 1080p 165hz for next 7yrs? Is it wasting money/performance?
Got myself a PNY 4070 for A$870 to finally replace my EVGA 1080ti Black. I didn't plan on it but for StarField mainly I decided I needed it after noticing the bottleneck.
Undervolting went from 180w down to never over 135w with no noticeable FPS difference due to also OC on the VRAM.
Size, power usage and heat are all considerations as I only run ITX. I was originally planning on doing a MB, CPU and Ram upgrade to AM5 but it looks like my 7700K lives on for a couple years longer.
The 7700k still kicks hard, especially for 1440p with that 4070.
First of all if you come to need more vram for nvidia you have to go up to almost $1000 for the next model card. Whereas the 7800xt already has 4gb more. And if you have a Ryzen cpu together with the Amd gpu they both interact to make better performance. It is impressive though that the 4070 is only at 192 bit vs the 256 bit on the XT and yet perform that well.
The boost of having an AMD cpu and got together is not much of a difference in %.
@@JJ-xc8msit makes 10% difference
I'm getting a powercolor hellhound 7800 XT, it just looks better
Enjoy it dude! You'll enjoy it way more then a 4070 or even 4070ti. I myself went for the 7900XT
i have the gigabyte oc 7800xt. great card you wont regret going with it.
@@elitepauper7400 Why would he enjoy a slower and less power efficient card with worse features?(4070 ti)
@@darkfire3691 you mean a faster more vram card that can actually handle 1440p without needing those features?
The market deployment needs to reconsider the XT card's name, as the power of the GPU is not that impressive. Naming a mid-range GPU "Hellhound" creates a conundrum, as it should ideally be reserved for a top-tier card.
C'mon bro really? 😅
Its insane how good performance per watt NVIDIA gets with 40 series while remain that cooler
Thanks for bringing up resale value, this is something that is usually not talked about when comparing Nvidia to AMD and one of the reasons I bought a 4070 Ti.
It's not always the case where NV had the higher resale value. When the boom for mining went nuts the RX580/480 went crazy and that card sold for 4x it's original msrp. It's NV counterpart didn't even sniff any of that. There have been multiple other cards where this happened with AMD. Also, if you plan to keep it for 4 years or more, the price difference is negligable for cards in the same price range.
@@pkpnyt4711 The 6800 XT has also retained better resale value than its direct competitor, the RTX 3080, at least relative to the original MSRP. I think they tend to go for roughly the same price, but last I checked, 3080's were going for a bit less than the 6800 XT. Clearly the big difference in the vram capacity has something to do with that, as people are afraid that 10GB will seriously limit the 3080. The 4070 ti is another Nvidia card with a very low vram capacity for its price tier, and the same thing could easily happen again with the 4070 ti vs AMD's closest competitor, the 7900 XT.
The worst price-to-performance GPU of the entire generation
Got an open box gigabyte windforce 4070 from best buy for 340$ lovin it.
Thank you for the benchmark, Power Consumption was really interesting to me since in a long run AMD costs more, for productivity and 3d works I think 4070 is the best option, and happy new year.
Wrong, rx 7800xt is a new card unlike 4070, give it some time for drivers that will optimise the card and 7800xt will be definitely better
good luck with that 12GB of VRAM
I'm getting mixed results when looking for which card to pick for VR gaming. Some say NVENC encoding is better for it while others say that the 7800xt is better performance.
I got 7800xt for VR, runs nicely
4070 is the best performing Gpu I could get on my 550w psu, and 1000va UPS. The power draw never went above 150w, and mostly around 100-130w 4k 60fps locked. In long term value , I believe I made the best decision. 👌
I recently upgraded my system from Ryzen 5 2600 + Asus ROG GTX1070 to an Intel 13600KF + Sapphire Nitro+ 7800xt. To those who are into "content creation" such as streaming. Your best bet would be to go with the RTX4070. Sure its just 12GB but what most content creators and tech youtubers have not said is that the encoding across all platforms is just better when it comes down to AV1 vs H264 and NVENC.
The NVENC encoder is at the current time superior over the rest of the encoders as it is widely supported by different platforms such as twitch, youtube, FB etc. It will not require you to have super high bitrate just to stream a really crisp image to your viewers.
AV1 is supported by both cards however the platforms that support it is at the current time is just RUclips. If you stream on Twitch, the AV1 encoding is not available yet. That said, you will be stuck with H264 which is suffering from pixelation when you do rapid/sudden movements or anything that requires fast/quick movements. Nvidia's NVENC encoder does not suffer from this.
16GB is nice if you are just aiming to game but if you ever want to do productivity, NVIDIA cards such as the 4070 is a much better card for your needs.
12GB of ram is more than enough even for fortnite lumen high.
If in the near future platforms such as twitch would start supporting AV1 then you can go with the 7800xt but at the moment, 7800xt is just good if you want MORE VRAM for your games. Don't rely on the amd cards for productivity. You will just be as disappointed as I am.
When doing the power consumption tests, can u lock the voltage (p0 state on the cards) so we can see if the architectures of which cards are the most efficient rather than studying the power saving algorithms. Good vid btw
Hmmm that’s make sense
If you could provide the values I could check? As the silicon is different, will have different 'sweetspots' more or less. RX 7800 XT likes to be dropped to around 2400mhz and 1.1v~, nvidia card likes 960mv at around 2.6-2.65.
hmm @TechYESCity Brian, I currently have a RX 6800 paired with a 5800X3D....would it be worth me upgrading to the RX 7800XT? I game at 1440p but in the future I plan on gaming at 4K My PSU is a Corsair TX850M 80+Gold
if you have 6800 i wouldn't bother - to little of a upgrade
@@Pieteros21 Cheers for the feedback :)
I'd for sure get a 6900xt or 6950xt for close to 500 or 600. That's a big upgrade and would get you to 4070ti performance without the 900$ price tag lol
@@RAM_845 cheers for you ;D
Also have 5800x3d but with gtx1080 for now until i find used gpu with 4070 performance for less than 400usd . Until then i am fine with gtx1080 performance .
Bought a 7800xt 4 weeks ago; after done days i had many issues with crashes and restart, tried many things like changing settings of power use, clean windows install, bought a new power supply and so on; nothing worked and there were a lot of people on the amd forum and reddit with the same issues. With the drivers from the last 2 week the computer has been running perfectly.
Many pointed out that it waa drivers fault that provoked the gpu doing power spikes whwn playing games.
To me it was: Alan wake = craah, cyberpunk = black screen and crash, Baldurs gate 3 = black screen and disabled gpu driver by windows.
"Don't lie, bitch. AMD drivers work perfectly. I have a 7700X with a 7800XT, and all games run stable."
You’re not alone.
Sorry, Bryan - one correction: percentile frametime values are NOT fps values and SHOULD NOT be converted into fps numbers. Many outlets make this mistake but it's like quoting an acceleration value and turning it into a velocity value....
Other than that - excellent review! I've also looked at 7800XT vs 4070 (I have the "reference" models of each) and the 4070 is an amazing card for SFF and power efficient builds. The 7800XT is, overall, the higher performing card if you discount RT but even then it can be pretty close depending on what settings you play at.
My leaning is more towards the 4070 because it's available in very small sized two-fan configs, whereas the 7800XT's smallest design I've found is the Sapphire Pulse, which /just about/ fits inside my SFF case. On the other hand, the Geforce cards in those small designs are all very cheap feeling, which I'm not a fan of...
Personally I prefer bigger cooling solutions because of they're usually quieter but on the benchies I kept seeing ~100W differences so here it's not that simple equation 😅
Wouldn't the reference model 7800 XT be smaller? For some reason, the only reference model available is also made by Sapphire, but it's not the same as the "Pulse" model.
@@syncmonism Technically, you're correct. However, the AMD reference design basically doesn't exist (and certainly not available in my region). The Pulse 7700 XT and 7800 XT are essentially the reference design with a slightly longer PCB (which is mostly just empty space) and a few extra resistors/capacitors in optional spots and a HDMI port swapped in for a DP port. The difference in size is minimal, too.
So, for me, the Pulse is the defacto reference design since there's no OC and no special board alterations. It's also the cheapest and smallest design you can buy from any partner. The rest are all three fan configs which are too long to get into my SFF case.
I had to cut away some of my case housing to get a 32cm 6800xt in. If it had been curved a bit at the end it would have been ok
I sold my 2070 that i got out of a used pre built and took back a 4060ti and fot a 4070. It was the cheaper and more convenient open for my current PSU and i got for 450, seeing as i only paid $350 for the entire setup the 2070 was in and still use the PSU and storage, it was a steal
I have an i7 8700k. Would either of those GPU's be worth pairing with it?
yep
8:00 ASRock polychrome sync is good??? WTH did they inject you Aussies with ????? or has it been completely overhauled since last gen? Last time i had to suffer it was on their x570m board.. (but seriously, if you display them on, signal rgb might sell some machines, lets ya do pretty crazy displays. _)

7800xt undervolts really well....most peeps I know who own it undervolt it. I hardly EVER see my power usage go that high. I also tend to limit my fps to 90 or so. (i don't play competitive fps) power usage is actually really reasonable when setup this way.
@@pdmerritt he literally said the opposite in the video lol stop licking amd's ass and admit that amd gpus are useless you cant do video rendering, you wont be able to mine on them if there is another mining boom and you cant even play games with ray tracing, enjoy your 10 more fps in " raw performance" ill take better encoder-decoders, ray tracing, upscaling tech thats not pathetic and better productivity performance any day besides amd cards arent even that cheap outside of usa/canada

just decided to buy 7800 xt i need to save up tho this will be my first ever pc build
Funny how when power doesnt matter people say buy nvidia but now that AMD uses more power people say use nvidia, that's hilarious to me.
I have always had a big focus on efficiency, way back in the day I criticized the RX 570 and 580 for it in my reviews vs their predecessors for example.
@@techyescity Yea but its funny how it shifts ways. Remember how power hungry the 3000 nvidias were but everyone said buy em anyways even though they'd spike power supplies and make em trip.
Efficiency was very similar between RX 6000 and RTX 3000, with the exception of the rx 6600, that was actually the most efficient out of the box card I had seen. At least from all the testing I had done, where were you getting the power numbers from?@@bluej511

3d modelling and stuff is Nvidia's territory...
The super refreshes around the corner should keep people from buying until pricing is leaked/announced
They're both very good products, they just have a lot of different strengths and weaknesses, but they're both very well rounded and good value products.
That being said, pricing can vary a lot by region, and some specific models are going to be better than others. Personally I'm not a big fan of Zotac, Gigabyte, or Asrock, especially their lower-end models, and lower-end Asus and MSI models often aren't great either. Sapphire and EVGA are my favorite brands for having good quality even with basic models, often offering the best bang per buck, imo. Powercolor also makes a lot of good bang per buck models now as well, though I think some of their most basic models might still not be great. Unfortunately, EVGA isn't making graphics cards anymore, so you won't find any EVGA 4000 series cards (unless it's an extremely rare pre-production model).
Ideally, you can find some good, detailed, 3rd party reviews of your exact model before buying. At least with this price tier, even the cheapest quality models tend to be of a higher quality than the cheapest quality models of some lower-end products. With the 6700 XT, the only good cheap model I have seen is the Sapphire Pulse. I would avoid any of the other cheap models for that card. The build quality of the 7800 XTs is, overall, definitely a step-up over the typical build quality of the 6700 XT (especially for the most basic models coming from Asrock, MSI, or Asus).
IMO it's about the price and RT. If Raytracing with most fps is very important for you NVIDIA cards will be the better option. I'm not a big fan of RT - how it actually has been used in games so far. That's the reason I bought a combo AMD 7800X3D and RX7900 XTX that gives me great fps in 1440p and 4k.
The 7900XTX is a beast of a card. Enjoy!
hey brian i just bought a rtx 3070 ti used for 600$ nzd was that a good price or did i pay to much and i paired it with the ryzen 5 7600
idk thats around 400$ here in the usa so i feel like thats kinda expensive for that much fora 3070 not even a 4000 series
I have a 7800 xt challenger from ASRock paired with a 13600k and Msi b760i ddr4 board.
Before with an rtx it was fine. It now I had to disable Xmp profile in to stop the crashes.
I am satisfied with the fps improvements by the 7800 but the need to disable xmp is kind of sad
Update the BIOS, and the issues with DDR4 will be resolved
I will try that , Thanks!@@jrgames215
DDU AND UPDATE BIOS
Would a 750 watt 80plus gold power supply be enough for the 7800?
yes
all 4070 models cost almost 50-100 EUR more in my country compared to 7800 XT, makes no sense to buy one, actually it feels like it was DOA with 12 GB VRAM
I have a HTPC setup (PS2 slim sized pc) with a 5800x3D and Zotac (dual fan) RTX4070 O/c 💪🥰compact model and I can game multiplayer titles at 1080p/1440p no problem or single player title at 4k on my OLED 🤩and my pc remains fairly quiet. My GPU was an upgrade to my ITX RTX3060 model and the difference in gaming was amazing while the system power draw remained the same from RTX3060 to RTX4070.😱🤯
The Nvidia naming scheme aside and bad GPU pricing (I got my RTX4070 on an open box (ex-display model) deal for ~$494USD here in Australia 🇦🇺 plus taxes, with a free game code and free express shipping so I’m stoked with the price I paid and it performance as well as low power draw!😉😇👍
I think you may be misremembering just how small the PS2 slim was. 😁 Ain’t no way you’ve built a PC with an adequate cooler and a 4070 into a machine _that_ small. Just not physically possible. Sounds like a sweet little rig, though. 👌
keep buying nvidia and maybe next gen they'll put a 128-bit bus on the 5070 so y'all can lower the settings even more
you must testing with 7800x3d if you have it!! 1% low will be much higher then
Got a 4090 on sale, but might down grade to the 4060ti t to get less frames
Hoping that the release of the 4070 Super will see the OG Super go down to $700~$750 AUD
It's a nice dream but I've got a feeling the original 4070 only drop into the low $800's if at all.
I might have to hold on to my 3060 until next gen I think unless prices do drop.
I bought the 7800xt as Im a gamer not a renderer or miner. Figured Nvidia was using DLSS as an excuse to paying them more to get less Vram and raw performence. It should be raw power>features not the other way around. That 12gb Ram will result as the shorter life span.
And if you want, you can use fsr too...
Did u test fortnite on dx11 ?
Hey guys. I need some HELP. Should I get the Hellhound 7900xtx for 1000€ or the Sapphire Nitro 7900xtx for 1200€? Should I put that 200€ in something else or is it worth it? I've seen a lot of posts saying that the Hellhound has a lot of coil whine
I heard that for AMD, Sapphire Nitro and Red Devil are the best. Hellbound is like the lower-tier model
No way to really go wrong these days at the performance levels PC's have reached. I went with an AMD CPU+GPU 1440p (120/144Hz) system build for 2024 mainly because I'm not big on supporting either NIVIDA or INTEL as companies these days (& also loved my AMD 3700X 1080p system build from 2019-2024). Haven't been disappointed with my new Ryzen 9 7900 12C/24T CPU & ASUS TUF version RX 7800 XT 16GB combo.
I wish the 4070 had 16 gbs of vram. Its efficiency is way better than the 7800 xt for slightly less performance and it includes the nvidia exclusive features that are praised for being better than the competition. The price in my country is the same for both cards so if someone is looking for a computer I will most likely recommend them the 4070 over the 7800 xt in the near future.
You can just undervolt the 7800xt lol. And 3000 series uses more power then the 6000 series. Then the story was gamers dont care about power...
Planned obsolescence, just like with 3070 currently
@@toivoproperformance per watt. Ampere was wayyyyy more performant. You're more interested in settling scores than considering actual user value. Vram just doesn't matter as much as you AMD nut riders think it does, and repeating that it does over and over won't make it any more true.
@@toivoproas if you can't undervolt the 4070. You can bring it down to 150w with 0 loss in performance with how well the vram overclocks. Every single 4070 will do at least +1400 on the memory.
I’d advise against going for more VRAM over DLSS that’s going to actually be utilized in the future. It’s going to be around a decade before you can even fill up 16GB of VRAM and by then the processing power is going to be extremely weak.
Look at the trends in the industry ;)
RTX 4070 + RX 6600/7600 with the AFMF and now the FSR3+DLSS mod
im on a rtx2060 at 1440p 165hz im so torn with these two cards lol
I wouldn't buy a new 12GB card now, unless I'm certain it's going to be used in 1080P.
Otherwise I wouldn't buy a new card before the Super series is released.
Naturally if you are ok with buying another card within 1-2 years of time you can't go wrong with either of them, up to your personal preference, use cases.
I'm rocking with a used 3090 probably until it dies, so I can have the benefit of Nvidia tech and sw support with a good amount of VRAM. I don't care about DLSS FG, that's the only drawback of this card except for power consumption which I equally don't care much about.
In the current market if I was to buy another GPU I would probably buy a used 3090 again.
7800 xt is the same or better than a 3090 in 1440p and slightly gets overperformed by 3090 in 4k. If you don't plan on playing in 4k there's literally no point in buying a 4 year old used card that god knows how it was used.
@@GodOfWar05100 Yeah for raster / gaming the Radeon card makes more sense.
If you care about support in other areas, AMD suddenly loses its edge.
@@GodOfWar05100 I agree that we are starting to see better value now and yeah the 7800XT is one of them.
I do believe that DLSS is better than FSR (as an upscaler) but if you are not tied to Nvidia (for some kind of non gaming use case) you should consider AMD as an option.
For my perspective I like to play around with Stable Diffusion, so I value the advantage Nvidia has in this field and I wouldn't go below 24GB VRAM either.
For me the 3090 is a best in slot card (aside from the 4090 lol), so considering price and performance.
This is until AMD has better support here, if this was the case now I would probably buy a 7900XTX over it. I would at least consider it for sure.
I would still go with the RX7800XT So far I have had 3 x 3080 die with hardware issues (all under warranty) I using a 6900XT at the moment and it's been rock solid
which model 3080? were they mining crypto? that's crazy to have 3 3080s have hardware issues.
Super sus because my 3080 since May of 2021 is still running perfectly.
I haven't come into any hardware problems on my cards since the 2080 ti.@@christophervanzetta
Sounds like complete bullshit. The odds of that would be millions to 1.
Same for me, all Nvidia cards died on me. I bought only AMD ever since.
if the 4070 had 16gb vram it would be the go to pick hands down, but it doesnt and it stings, especially at that price point. however the more efficient memory management of nvidia shrinks the vram gap a bit. in real world terms the 4070 is more like a 14gb card if it was an amd card.
with the 4070 you get about the same performance in raster with 100w less power draw, significantly better raytracing performance, dlss & framegen (for games such as cyberpunk), video super resolution (which is great for low bitrate/resolution web videos), cuda support, better video codecs (especially h264) and better application performance especially for 3d and cad.
i like the amd driver interface better, the need to use afterburner for a simple undervolt is very convoluted. but that doesnt really outweight the pros of the 4070 over the 7800XT.
the 7800XT should be a constant $100 below the 4070 to be a strong value competitor. at the same price, its just not worth it - give or take that 4gb (or rather 2gb) gap of vram. UNLESS you play call of duty, the extra performance of rdna2 and rdna3 is quite substantial here.
4070 ti is 3 times expensive compared to 7800xt where i live
The vram isn't a big issue at all. The 4070 beats the 7800xt in 1% lows. AMDs 80 class can't beat Nvidia's 80 class. You AMD fanboys don't even watch these videos anymore, you just type these essays to reassure your own egos. Pathetic.
@@dexter96224070 =/= 4070ti
I'm pretty much stuck with my RTX 3080 TUF 10gb,bcs i over paid it in 2022,so sell it now will be worthless.
It will be mine final GPU,unless it break down :)
Not related to this video, but a request.
A general price guide on the used GPU market stretching back 3 generations from both Nvidia and AMD.
Maybe I am out of touch or something, but I don't know what counts as good value anymore.
can definitely look into that for you, ultimately depends on where you live, but can do a generic USD pricing kind of thing vs new.
@techyescity A generic will be useful. For what it is worth, I live in Singapore, but I feel I am losing my mind trying to understand some of the used pricing here.
I considered these cards in the future. I mostly game but also do SOME content creation. I have an RTX 4060Ti w/ 8G VRAM. I like DLSS frame generation when its supported and power consumption is kind of important to me. But I really wanted the 16G VRAM. Im not a big fan of Nvidia GeForce Experience for recording gameplay. But AMD STILL doesn't support frame generation.
I considered the 7600 XT but it performs slightly worse natively and has no real frame gen.
Admittedly I turn ray tracing off in most games.
I play at 1080P with an AMD Ryzen 5 5600X CPU.
What is the better buy?
Vram does matter to an extent, but at 1440p, 12GB should be enough until the next generation of console titles start to release.
Which means 7800xt will have a longer life span when the next generation of console titles start to release
Holy power consumption differences for such similar results, speaks more to where the tech is than anything... no?
I wonder what is the power efficiency of 2080ti?
You can buy a used 6900xt at this price point can we get a 7800 vs 6900 vs 4070 showdown?
I got a 7800xt. Phenomenal card!
4070 or 7800xt?? they are both now around $550 because the 7800xt has had price increased currently. Personally I dont think 16gb is currently needed and if it were, i think it would be only for 4k but not many people game at 4k...
@@bigmans813 there are games going over 16gb in 4k already lol, wait for the new gen consoles and 16gb will be a bare minimum for even 1440p
I have a RX7900XT that replaced my RTX 3070 to which I think the RTX 3070 did better with the games I play. Best thing is upgrade your monitor before you upgrade your GPU. Due to if you cap yourself with a 60FPS with a 60 -75 HZ monitor and you will never get 4K on a 1440P monitor. That cuts down most of your need for a higher video card. I got a better monitor but have not been moved to install it. I will due to I paid for it. May be then I will see a upgrade other than the AMD software is better than the NVIDIA.
You people don't understand how expensive electricity is in some areas, at least for me in Denmark the difference between 4070 and 7800xt is 150€ per year in electricity consumption. 100w difference with similar performance is huge....during the 3 years period that I keep a card, the difference in consumption makes the card free.
The better buy is the card with Tech YES Lovin'
Why not some Marco lovin'?
@@RAM_845 Marco's still getting things set up. So many things on the go. Bryan's CPU will be featured too
@@MarcoGPUtuber Ahh yeah he mentioned that on yesterday's video. The one he had trouble re pinning?

@@techyescity I spent $400 on used camera equipment so i can do it properly
How did I miss this video
Went for a 7800x3d and 7800xt(570euro). At the moment have a r7 2700x and a rx580. And i have had 0 issues with Rx580. Pay over 600 eur for 12gb on the 4070 is a joke!
Dont worry, u will pay anyway for the electricity bill because 7800XT pulls +100W over the 4070 and puts out more heat into ur case which ultimately heats up ur 7800X3D. 😮
@@d4nith3 LOL and i should care for maybe a 10 euro saving in 5 years? You now power draw depends on resoluton and fps aswell? Why should i go over my screens refresh rate.
Power consumtion is only 50watt more. Thats nothing for normal playing on the weekend. Got both cards, you see no difference in heat.@@d4nith3
@CrazO9111 i saw +100W difference in average in this video.
@@d4nith3 UV/OC then maybe. TDP 200 // 263 Watt.
If your building an itx system right now the 4070 is the best card to get due to the low power draw a 2 slot design.
ANY Nvidia card is just nothing more, than complete, and utter, CRAP !!!
I just do basic gaming just turn it on and go do not try tweaking a lot and I don't see enough difference in either card to nit pick to much . So The only thing I could see is if you like nividia or amd better. Whatever is cheaper at the time maybe, To be honest I have 2 gaming pcs 4070 in one and 7800xt in the other they both run great
I have a Ryzen 7 7700x and a rx 7800xt, 32gb.
I'm still considering in changing my 7800xt for a 4070 just because of Fortnite. Do you think this can work better than the 7800xt? (I have a 30 day return window that's why, I'm considering that option)
Don’t . 7800xt will be better one AMD released drivers for the car in the upcoming months. 7800xt has 16 gb of vram which is very useful and also far 3 is already being released which is like dlss. Also 7800xt is future proof and NVIDIA is not
i have the exact same rig as you, with the exact same thought of returning for 4070 because of fortnite
Why no one mention the power w ? Almost the same performance but 4070 consumes 100w less.
7800xt is killing right now🎉. I might get this I'm stuck with the 3070
I switched to the 7800 XT after using Nvidia for 20 years, feels good not even thinking about VRAM when playing games.
Here in the Netherlands it´s litterally $25 difference so i´m gonna go with the 4070
