ModsNSods Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Well the time has finally came where i will be moving on from my beloved 5700 XT, I have the greatest respect for how well this card (RDNA1) has held up for me in this years big releases such as Dead Island 2, Hogwarts Legacy, RE4 Remake & TLOU Part1, But nearing the end of the year i noticed i wasnt able to play Alan Wake 2 at an acceptable level and when it gets to the point where i cant play games id like too i generally upgrade so have decided to go for a new card in the new year sales. I am sad to say goodbye to such a great card that i have had so much value and joy/ fond memories from, I think right now in the advancements of games this year you really need at the very least to be on a 3000 series nvidia card or a 6000 series amd. Id rather skip RDNA2 and go straight for a 7700xt but depending on the price id happily go for a 6700 xt or even a RX 7600 depending on what the sales bring, Im not arguing the fact that amd cards are better than nvidia or vise versa i admit the support and drivers are generally better on nvidia but i choose amd cause of price over performance, i get so much more for my money on a tight budget which is why i have used amd since RDNA. I was curous what cards you are all currently using or what cards any of you will be sad to be retiring in the new year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7531Leonidas Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 I got a 7900xtx, generally runs very good, but I can't get the custom fan curve (from Adrenaline) to work while Skyrim SE is running. I like to force it to try to keep temps down just a little more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModsNSods Posted December 28, 2023 Author Share Posted December 28, 2023 Oh wow thats a killer card, Bet it literally laughs at anything you throw at it!, We still play skyrim se allot too, We jumped over to the anniversary edition a while back since most of the mods seem to work fine still from se now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7531Leonidas Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 You might be surprised what a full-blown eye candy SSE/AE install can require, especially w/FSMP-HDT installed as well. It can stutter a bit. Probably need to update my CPU a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soupdragon1234 Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 HDT-SMP is CPU intensive yes.
