Brand loyalty in general is an odd thing to me.

@@mehemynxm6974 Brand loyalty is fine, it’s the fanboyism that’s weird. Some kind of fusion of playground politics and attempt to justify the money spent. I needed, no wanted a new GPU recently and was keen on getting an nvidia card this time around mainly for CUDA but the value proposition was just bad.

I wouldn't say it's brand loyalty all the time Nvidia market better and are more user friendly imo. It's a shame AMD can't seem to make the AMD software more accessible. When you plug in your GPU it should install adrenaline software and then give you a skippable tutorial for a new user. Instead you have to find answers on the likes of KZfaq

The "are amd gpu drivers still bad?" isn't brand loyalty though it was amd fault for that and they yet to outlive that reputation even if today amd drivers are actually better than nvidia drivers

@@armed_but_blind2768 yeah when you buy a nvidia gpu you know you have things like DLSS and games being targeted to your GPU it's just the safe option

Esp during the Socket A days where AMD Athlons and the Athlon XP were as competitive or were better than Intel's offerings at a lower price. AMD did well with critics in the Socket 939 days but the financial situation hurt them a lot because said critics would still praise intel more than AMD despite AMD being on par or better for the dollar.

True but their GPU drivers truly suck, coming from a guy who used many Nvidia and AMD cards for years

I did the same, except it was an upgrade from a 3070 (which I loved) to the 7900 XT and I couldn't be happier. I cannot speak highly enough about AMD's Adrenaline software. It is very easy to use and looks amazing compared to Nvidia.

7900 is a beast, definitevly my next gpu when it comes down on price to 650 or so. I had a 3070 and sell it a month ago for 400 and a few days ago i buyed a 3080 fe for 420.

Same, got the 7900XT Hellhound open box for $719 and it is AMAZING! Don't even know why I bothered with Nvidia cards this gen. 4K gaming with even high RT mostly ultra settings and few settings set to high instead where its not even noticeable, I can get 120FPS easily. 20GB VRAM is so nice!

I did the same 7900xtx instead of 4090.. 4080 was out of the question due too RT benchmarks and memory configuration, better RT performance than AMD realy doesnt mean 1200euro+ worth RT performance:-D its sucks anyway , rasterization performance capabilities of 4080 that was nail to its coffin ... pretty fast decision. Supporting chiplets in gaming gpu market and price moved me too xtx instead of 4090. Frame gen in high-end gpu sector, basicaly performance hack . Lets be honnest It is performance hack used as "selling point " that was insult ... good feature, but not selling point.

I will go for The 7900 XTX Sapphire Nitro+ (or maybe if AMD release the 7950 XTX, i'll take the 7950)

What’s a ddu? not too familiar with software and I’m getting the same you you have next week

@@scampshrimpi5245 DDU is a software to remove all traces of the drivers of Nvidia or AMD from your PC, if you are changing GPU vendors. Is known that not doing that can cause driver conflicts, so when changing GPU vendors, always use DDU or the special driver remover tool, normally available on each vendor driver page. Uninstalling the drivers as normal is not enough. Thou I recommend seeing tutorials on youtube in how to use DDU safely, because if badly used it can remove more than it should.

Even in 2023 I've met with quite a few people who believed that Ryzen CPUs are running hot and other things that were only relevant in like 2016 but thankfully even average Joe customers are waking up to the fact the AMD can be a better choice on both GPU and CPU front depending on your needs.

Nope it's still a problem on games that are not running on DX12 or Vulkan, their drivers are not that great on DX11/10/9 and they're awful on OpenGL, all in all, the great performance of AMD cards on new titles is hiding the fact that they're way behind NVIDIA on old titles, if you play old games you'll find out yourself

Are you dumb AMD no longer has any driver problems. Even if they did would still be better to get AMD because it’s soooo much cheaper than Nvidia

​@@fengutheface It sure can, if the manufacture released a supporting BIOS. There is a caveat though, it will no longer support a few other models of CPU due to the small BIOS ROM size the X370 boards typically had.

Im on linux rn, is the windows software fixed yet or does is still draw a low of power when its installed?

Cuz i know something like that was an issue a year or two ago

yo, same...i suggest tutorials for the AMD software, there are some really good ones out there

I would say this is the main issue with AMD there is a learning curve where as with Nvidia it's very straight forward game ready drivers and you're playing games. Once you know what you're doing with AMD though I much prefer it to nvidia

Do you play old games too?

same here, went from 1070Ti to 7900XTX (personal rig, on working rig i used a lot of different cards mostly NVidia) , in this price and performance level, NVidia was no-go, price of 4090 is somewhere else and whole 40XX series is a joke compared to money they ask for it. Driver issue is the thing old several years, and for some reason there is not much ppl talking about nvidia drivers issue, since both manufacturer having them.

You prolly dont have a 4080. Becouse the rx 7900xtx did better in every game unless you are Actually not using its software but adjusting the nvdia software

yep upgraded from a GTX 1070 as well, having RMA it once, it then died again, during covid whilst GPUs were super high, worked out better price wise to get it a PC combo build, as I was not prepared to pay nearly tripe what the 1070 originally cost me. Got a 6700XT, been more than happy with it, 2 years so far, no hiccups, no driver hangs and the GPU itself, hasn't failed, unlike my Nvidia, in fact, I seem to call in my 20 years of Nvidia and AMD flip flopping, Nvidias have failed, AMDs I replaced cos they were obsolete. Never had to RMA an AMD, and the 1070 was not first RMA either, I seem to remember doing it on a Ti4600 and 9600GT years ago too, yet my Radeon have always been bullet proof.

just wait 3 years and you'll regret that

@@ogkapz what do you mean by that?

Remember the 80's? (Pepperidge farm remembers! LOL) That's when we didn't have to fuss about graphics! 16 bit was king! Been using AMD components since 1992. Terrible back then but when the 2000's came, oh wow! Picture was great but lag was so much prevalent! I also used nVidia from time to time. My RTX 3080 works just as well as my 6800xt. The new gen of gpu's is ugh and meh! I will hold onto to these gpu's for another couple of years. Cheers

I used an amd rx 580 for a long time and My only problem with amd i ever had was my Vega 64 that died pretty soon after the warranty was out, but it was a very rare case, but i was pretty disappointed because i paid 700 for it, probably because they went with hbm on that card.

You must be a Battle Field 2 and 1942 desert combat brother

I also have a 6700XT, I absolutely love it, yeah sometimes I wish I can boost that ray tracing, then I think, wth HDR is awesome fuck that shit. I remember having a lot of issues with ATI/AMD drivers but that fit the ATI/AMD merging time. I still have an HD5770 that's still running well. I'm using it to display my server though

I had 5700xt and had horrible experience with stability, got used 2070s from a friend instead. I wouldn't call it a lie, maybe overexaggerated perception. But I'm happy to see they've nailed it now.

Do you think most of the problems that people had are user error and easily fixable? Because i had a friend who had an AMD gpu for his first PC and would always complain how laggy and slow it was and would blue screen a lot. And i would tell him that it seems like a user error on his part

Dont know if I’m late but you might want to do DDU. There might be some residual drivers from your nvidia card hence the issues.

Nah even with ddU I have had more issues with nvidia then amd if you don’t count the 5700xt. The 5700xt is in my sons rig and it’s been absolutely great the last two years to be honest. Rx580 rx5700xt rtx3060 rtx3070ti rx6950xt

@@SilverMystes1 ddU is a must though without it all drivers have issues for sure.

true only thing is the ration between amd and nvidia is like 2:10 and therefore we hear the 2 more often than the 2 in the 10, both are very good brands. personally id go for Saphire AMD Nitro series and Nvidia MSI or Asus. no complains

From my experience brother I thought I was having driver issues with my AMD 6800XT but It was my PSU. I would play A Plague Tale Requiem And Steel Rising On 4K high setting and would get a black screen, I thought it was the drivers so I used DDU 3 times and see if it will solve my problem and it didn't. I said to myself maybe it's the PSU, so I decided to buy a good Corsair High quality PSU and my problems went away no more black screens after playing certain games in 4k on high settings.

If I was rich I'd definitely give Intel Arc a try. But right now it's bound to be janky. Specs sound great though. And the high vram is definitely a plus. I was torn between Nvidia and AMD but I quickly realised that in workstation tasks it's a no brainer. Nvidia's encoders are just better than AMD on pretty much everything. Rendering with even CUDA is faster than an AMD equivalent card and with OptiX it's faster than an AMD card a whole tier or two above it. For gaming it's the other way round, except for dlss and RT. If you want to build a gaming PC that does nothing else, definitely go with AMD. (even with poorer RT performance I don't think AMD's price to performance can be beaten). For anything else, (sadly cause I dislike them) Nvidia.

I wanted to go ALL out at least ONCE in my life on a gaming system. Well replacement was a custom AMD 7 tower with integrated graphics on this AMD 7 CPU... Half the price as my blow out system then simply plugged in the graphic card from my new but DEAD system... FREAKING AWESOME! I STILL have the AMD 9 CPU that went with it and I believe the CPU is still in working order with all 16 cores being the monster it is but the AMD 7 CPU with only half the cores is nothing to sneeze at either. Also? Don't know why but my AMD 9 CPU was having problem staying cool even with the system at idle?!? I swapped out coolers on that note which DID make a big difference... but the system died anyways (sub-part power brick). The way I figured it? Integrated graphics on an AMD CPU wouldn't be bad. Was on the money on that note and if I plugged in an actual graphic card? Things would be sweater. Lets just say the graphic card was a bonus as I actually WASN'T used to playing games at 60 fps.

I do love amd adrenalin software, it is actually a great "all in one" program, but it keeps randomly crashing or glitching, also somehow my 6950xt works better with the basic W10 Pro drivers than with AMD drivers (installing them means that games will start crashing, screen flickering, random moments of strong stuttering).

Monitor not compatible with GPU? You had to switch monitor? That's ridiculous! And you say NVIDIA has to get their shit together? I've had ATI and NVIDIA GPUs for decades and frankly, there's a reason NVIDIA is the best. The ATI cards I've had fail more often and have far more issues and limitations, especially in their drivers. Having said that, they're fine too, just the budget choice for sure. And both are way better than Intel's drivers!

Tf kinda goofy ass monitor you got?

@@Tom--Ace better choice for linux too

🤯🤯🤯🤯 *WHOOOO?????* The monitor turned out to be incompatible with GPU??????? How is this possible?????🤯🤯 Can you please tell me what kind of monitor model it was?

@@Tom--Ace it is not normal that a monitor is incompatible to a GPU. I used a 6900xt and now a 4090 and both worked/are working fine, the AMD card had no problems with a G-Sync Monitor at all and AMDs Adrenaline Software is just 100 times better than GeForce Experience, i really miss it but i need the CUDA Cores for work so i had no choice.

The 4070 isn't too bad. Go for it

i had an rx570 a couple months ago and i loved it only downside was the less than 8gb vram. the rx590 sounds like a great gpu to me

@@sykotes Yeah I never got why games reported that a 8 GB card had less then that but not by much (7.72 GB or something like that) My 590 is a good card, a nice upgrade to the RX 570

@@symmetricbulldog2022 I'm still using a RX 570 and it runs most games I play just fine.

i have a RX580 Sapphire edition Overclocked, and since i got this whole pc for only 400$ (i5-9400f, rx580, 16gb ram) i'm pretty damn impressed what this card can do for so little, and it really is an upgrade over my older rx460

@@thomasplays2 that’s a great price. i forgot it’s really easy to over clock amd gpus

Yeah Radeon's software is fantastic these days, they've come a very long way and dont deserve all the hate they get imo. People just like feeling like they're on the "winning team" even if they're actually getting screwed.

If you still like to play some older games and think a modern AMD should max out the settings and on some modern monitor like 4K 144hz then guess again. AMD chokes on older titles. All the extra modern GPU muscle goes extremely under utilized. My family likes to play a very old Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed as a PC type Mario Kart. Gtx1070/1080’s before had no issues running this old but still good looking game at 4K. Solid 60fps all the time. Now with 6600xt,6700xt or even a 6900xt the game runs like crap. DX12 games work good for AMD but older dx9,10 or 11 much of the time don’t. And while I get the terrible performance the gpu is barely running like 500-1000mhz clock speed as if something is holding them back or extreme power saving is occurring. I have 8x AMD Ryzen 5000 systems , I am no Nvidia fanboy. If you want to max out older titles don’t buy AMD. With that said even running ultra LOW settings does not help.

@@45eno Weird , I play a lot of dx11 games on my 6950 xt and they run great, pretty much every game ive played besides cyberpunk is running native 4k 60+ fps

@@Dempig It's not all games but some real old ones for sure struggle to ramp up the power. There is something driver or optimization going on. I still play the 2013 Battlefield 4 which is DX11 and it runs pretty good BUT it has similar issues at times. I have a dedicated top monitor to watch my system stats and I will get dips in performance under my 142 FPS cap say to like 110fps and when I look at the GPU it's not even at 99-100% its like 60-80%. And I think why is my frames dropping lower while my card isn't even running max clock speed and fully utilized. I would get it if the game was so demanding that I was hitting only 110fps as an example but then I would expect to see my GPU at 99-100% utilized meaning the card is doing max effort to pump out frames. I see low frames in older games where the GPU isn't half asleep. It's weird. They are great bang for the buck cards but I was really disappointed when I replaced a bunch of 1070/1080 cards in my family rigs for $128 6600XT. Even my 6700XT and then 6900XT has the same issues. These are all on Gen4 X570 boards with 5000 series CPU's w/ SAM enabled.

@@BallzachMcTeabagher It was past its prime when I got mine, but only really started to show its age when I got an HD monitor.

@@LunarShift Old hardware is the best though, it was the only way young me could play PC games

My experience is pretty similar to yours except I went HD 7850 > R9 390 > 5700xt. The 5700xt was plagued with driver crashes or the 3 years I had it... so I got fed up and dropped it for a 4070 recently. I mostly play in VR so the 5700XT's issues with video encoding were front and center for me as the desktop streaming to the headset would always hitch and lag; and if I was watching a youtube video in game I'd innevitably encounter a driver crash. There were other issues too like games built on UE4 crashing every now and then.

I have a few questions. Can you help me?

There is a Direct ML build of SD on the interwebz. Work on all GPUs. I use it with my RX 6800 to churn out high rez images pretty darn quickly

You hopefully shouldn't. Make sure to do a fresh install etc and you should be fine

How does the 6750xt fare in 1440p? I'm getting one in a couple weeks and I was wondering if getting a 1440p monitor was worth it

@@RozKounelakion i got one like 2 weeks ago. I'm playing on 1080p and i've never seen fans turn on, gpu somehow doesnt get hot besides stress tests. I have rog strix btw.

@@RozKounelakion I have a 6700XT and I game on a 4K 65" TV. Obviously, I don't use Ray Tracing, I often have to turn on FSR to Quality (Quality means rendering the game in native 1440p; I sometimes use Lossless Scaling app for games that doesn't have upscaler built in) and I use mixed medium/high settings, high where the quality is visible and medium when I can't see a difference between med and high. When playing on a huge display, sitting quite close to it, you can see every pixel, so rather than particle effects etc it's more important to go high resolution and high textures and my card delivers. About 95% of the games I play this way I get stable 60FPS (my TV's refresh rate) and my GPU is using up 120-140W of power, so plenty of power to spare (I've seen it using max 180W). And I'm talking about 6700XT, 6750XT is going to be even better than that, but maybe a bit more power draw. I actually rather lowering the settings and turn on Radeon Chill (for example randering the game in 45FPS when not much is happening and 60FPS during action) so that I don't turn my PC into a space heater. I always used Nvidia cards but since I built my PC in 2019 using AMD card, I've been building them like that ever since, and I've built a couple of PCs for friends and family. Also, when looking at graphic cards benchmarks, make sure the video is quite recent with newest drivers. The cards got significantly faster since their release a couple years back. Some benchmarks from 2020 seems like 6700XT and RTX3070 are trading blows, but now 6700XT eats 3070 for breakfast.

@@Jackassik yo i also have a 6700XT and ive noticed it has a switch on near the power cable do you know what it does ?

@@efekangok6317 I don't have any switch but I know some cards have BIOS switch. So it's kind of like two profiles, one focuses on giving you pure performance, while the second one balances performance with power draw. I might be wrong though, it should be explained in the manual.

XFX and Sapphire are the better ones, for that CPU, it would be more comfortable to get a 6700XT, but the 6800XT might do as good as it is!

@@yotavares will 6700XT will not become bottleneck for 1080p resolution?

I will buy 6800 XT too in a couple of weeks. Can't wait, it will replace a GTX 1060. :D

I'm looking at the intel arc as well, I really hope the drivers are safe enough for all of us to get our hands on them and enjoy any game we throw at it. I'm sure most non-AAA games will run fine, but I have an AMD build and it just seems easier to buy the native hardware for cheaper as opposed to the arc with double the vram, but is more expensive. Good luck with your amd build, there are currently cpu and motherboard bundle deals going for the am5 line to help if you ever wish to have a place to start.

Save and spend for a 6800xt instead

You're downgrading, my guy.
