Graphics Card Replacement

Hi Everyone,

As In a thread I posted here: https://forum.overclock3d.net/threa...d-bsod-video_scheduler_internal_error.104398/

I know that my GPU has gone bad, I tried the "onboard" Graphics and the snag has gone away.

And Amazon have refunded me a nice total of £539.00

I'm looking for options to replace this

Either Nvidia RX570 or AMD 9070 or XT

Any recommendations welcomed!
TIA!
Mate see if you can get yourself a 9070XT at or as close to MSRP as possible, I think you'll be quite happy with it.
 
That I will look at - what about Nvidia?

Depends on what you want really. Nvidia has its perks. Multi-Frame Generation may be interesting to you (if you have a very high refresh rate monitor), and DLSS is available in more games than FSR 4.

Since you are moving from a Radeon RX 7800 XT, the RX 9070 XT is a straight-up upgrade. With an RTX 5070, you have less memory (12GB VS 16GB), but you can get that GPU for as little as £460 these days (which is less than what you got back for the RX 7800 XT!).

Upgrade to an RTX 5070 Ti, the lowest price I see is £679.99, and it has 16GB of memory. TBH, none of these GPUs are bad options. It just depends on what your preference is. The RX 9070 XT is an RTX 5070 Ti competitor with a lower price, but Nvidia has an advantage with broader DLSS support vs FSR.
 
Gotcha - how much performance wise from 7800XT will it be from upto the 9070XT will be?

The RX 9070 XT is broadly similar to AMD's RX 7900 XTX, which is three GPU models up from the RX 7800 XT (7800 XT < RX 7900 GRE < RX 7900 XT< RX 7900 XTX). So it would be a big leap up.

For more exact data, you'd need to look at some reviews. It would be a big step up, even if you don't consider aspects like FSR 4.
 
Now I seem to be getting issues with system - if sometimes in gaming or idle my screen would just go black and then restart, I don't have the sense it would be over heating.

I tried the November Drivers on this card, used DDU to un-install when its intstall it goes to a long black screen and display doesn't turn on.
I've gone back to the Septembers Drivers of this card and they install fine.

I seem to think it would be something to do with my PSU I've had it a long while and sadly its out of warranty.

Has anyone had this problem?

What PSU do you have?

You can download MSI Afterburner and check your temps while gaming.
 
My mate had this problem and it was the PSU. He had a no brand 850w and a EVGA 750w but had been using the no brand because he thought the bigger number would be better. Swapped tot he more trusted PSU and never had the issue again
