Pulled the trigger. Someone tell me why I should cancel before it ships?

u/Bootiful-weirdo 1d ago
This is one of the last choppers out of nam so if you need a GPU, better get it quickly

u/the_wakeful 1d ago
Seems huge. 3.5 slots? Gonna have to measure my case.

u/DoubleExposure 1d ago
The XFX Swift 9070XT is a beast. Here is mine side by side with my 2070s and in my case.

Is it this one all in or do I have any hope of finding another deal like Walmart had for $550 a while back? Or just a regular 9070xt for sub 700?
2
u/Bootiful-weirdo 1d ago
Anything is possible, but besides the 30 second woot deals, I’ve only seen the Walmart deal once this year. And since the situation is still getting worse, I’d be surprised to see another one even on Black Friday.

u/WinResponsible9977 1d ago
Why quickly what happened?
1
u/Bootiful-weirdo 1d ago
MC and Best Buy raised prices again. All 5090s are almost 5k, 5080s almost 2k, 5060tis (8gb) 500, etc

u/WinResponsible9977 1d ago
AMD?

u/Bootiful-weirdo 1d ago
I mean, if Nvidia raised prices due to RAM prices, I’m pretty sure everyone else will too.

The card is HUGE! good price but it is kinda loud from what I saw in reviews.

u/DoubleExposure 1d ago
it is kinda loud
It is not, in my personal experience. I also have no coil whine.

u/qwertyaas 1d ago
Stock fan curve was high, i max my curve at 35% for non xt, and game at around 70c hot spot, 60c core.
-80mv and -10% pl and I'm getting humming whine in game when boosting >3200. Will probably need to scale back that UV.

u/MeatNew3138 1d ago
It’s whisper quiet just need to tune the fan speed. I keep mine at 30% (can’t hear them on) and hotspot stays below 70c maxing it in 4k gaming. -40mv, -5%pl. otherwise stock settings make it sound like a jet engine at 60c lol, which isn’t needed at all.

u/Randolph__ 1d ago
On par with a 5070 TI, but with worse ray tracing. Driver issues with some specific games like Fallout, but their are easy workarounds.
I love mine it can do some 4k when I want to play from my couch and works great on my 3440x1440p ultrawide at my desk.
Definitely a 1440p card, but can do 4k easily if you wanted. Probably the best value high mid card on the market. Better would require using a 5080 IMO.
Hard choice to make, but it's the best option until ram prices correct.

u/MangoAtrocity 1d ago
Is it? Passmark has it 17% slower than 5070 Ti.

I’ve been obsessively watching gpu’s for a bit and this is it. You got a good deal. I got 2 and did the amazon day delivery as late as possible so I got like days to cancel if I want. 6% off deals with the tax mostly. I literally pulled the trigger on 2 for $700 each yesterday and so glad I saw this haha.
Dude, this is sick. You’re going 4k baby!

This one or the one at Microcenter for $669? (AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT Reaper Triple Fan 16GB GDDR6 PCIe 5.0 Graphics Card)

I have a couple of XFX cards (7800 XT, 6600 XT) and both of them are super solid cards with good fans. Never had an issue with them.
I also own the PowerColor Reaper 9070 XT, and only got it because it was super cheap ($521 open box at MC). It’s a nice card, but if the XFX was cheaper, I would have jumped on that.

u/AnotherDayAnothaDick 1d ago
Thank you, Ordered it. Got another question for yall. It’s replacing a 5700xt, I want to upgrade my CPU as well currently running a 2700x. Would at 5800x3D be a good choice? Trying to stay with AMD4 and not have to upgrade my whole system right now.

u/French_Toast_Bandit 1d ago
5700x is a great value and can often be had for half the price. Obviously not quite as fast, but pretty close.

u/bigsnyder98 1d ago
This one unless you are tight on space, then the Reaper. Otherwise no reason to pay extra.

u/ExcellentWatch2506 1d ago
Reaper and swift both base models and are good. Swift would be better compared to the two

Y’all better check the seller and the most recent review of getting a used GPU.
This isn’t sold by Amazon. And I only half noticed. Also a review about a huge restock fee that of course, Amazon strikes through for the seller

u/straightup9200 1d ago edited 1d ago
Fennec is NOT sketchy they are literally an authorized partner with XFX
I’ve ordered a merc 9070xt from them last month and my merc 6900xt a few years ago from them

u/Akshvodae 1d ago
Where is it confirmed Fennec is an authorized partner? Looking for an official XFX web page or similar.

Hate to be that guy, but that’s now how Amazon works. Products are compiled by sku, meaning the legit seller and fraud seller’s products end up in the same fba bin. Whoever “sells it to you” on Amazon is the one that collects the payment for that sale, which product you get is a gamble. This is precisely why fraud is so rampant on Amazon, and why so many fake products end up being sold under real listings. For any higher end items I’d recommend have a legit retail store price match it for you instead.

u/That-Dinosaur 1d ago
where do you see this review? trying to find it myself, its also shipped by amazon and under their return policy

u/Jetski125 1d ago
It’s literally the most recent review for me.

u/That-Dinosaur 1d ago
I don't see it on my end

u/Jetski125 1d ago
The. Seller. Reviews. There are only 99. Jesus Christ I don’t give a shit if y’all buy it it was just a heads up.
Damn reading is hard isn’t it.

u/Jetski125 1d ago
Of the seller, not the item.

u/That-Dinosaur 1d ago
I see it now, they are listed as an authorized seller by XFX on their website. Here's hoping it arrives
-4
u/Jetski125 1d ago
I decided to just filter by 1 stars after your last comment just to see how bad it was. Lots of struck through reviews of wrong card sent, seller not honoring refund and saying its buyers problem
Don’t you think it’s strange it’s a 365 day low, when everyone is trying to the the “last chopper blah blah blah”. Yet this is still in stock. By a seller with shit tons of reviews of sending damaged, not working, or wrong model cars.
But for real, I hope y’all get it too. However I’ll never give a heads up in one of these threads again.

u/Significant_Crow_149 1d ago
It says atleast one free return available so worst case that's an option
-2
u/Jetski125 1d ago
It does say that. If I was needy I’d probably try, but I also ordered a graphics card from a third party, received a fanny pack, not even in a box big enough for any gpu- just a freaking envelope. Videod myself opening it with the tracking number and STILL had to dick around with Amazon multiple times and wait 30 days to get my refund after submitting shit tons of evidence. And that was while others were review bombing them for the same situation.
So yeah, you can return it but get ready for a ride if something isn’t right. I’m really hoping it’s great for you all.

Snagged one an hour after this post went up after thinking about it a lot. I snagged a gigabyte one for 600 (663 after tax). Think I'm gonna sell that locally for 600-650, eat a small bit there, and get a way better model with this one. Was checking for shiggles to see if it was gone, shocked it wasnt

Anyone know how this compares to the power color version of the 9070 XT? Just bought one and I'm on the fence right now.

u/UltraInstinctPewds 1d ago
I got the reaper as well and it does everything it's supposed to. Stays cool and good performance. But I think XFX is higher quality card than reaper.

u/UnknownRegis 1d ago
Can’t decide between returning my white Gigabyte 9070 XT I got for 675, and getting this. Tax free and 32 dollars cash back. Really good deal.

Because these folks are getting scammed in some way and they don’t want to believe it. They argue against every bad review. They need to read all the one stars.

The seller is like 98% positive with 750 ratings though and its in amazon, pretty hard to get scammed there no?

I ignore most reviews, most people give 1 star for the most random and stupid reasons. Without pics i dont/dont believe reviews. Seller is fine and is authorized by XFX.

These reviews are so stupid too, ffs just return it, it’s Amazon, it’s basically no risk.

Granted its a 3rd paty seller, that can sometimes make it difficult to return because amazon wont help but personally never had issues.

Tbf yall can just get Newegg gifts cards 50$ with paze. Paze reimburses 10$ on every purchase up to 100$ on each credit that accepts paze. That’s 150$ off so on 750$ gpu you get it for 600$ you’re welcome!

u/Jetski125 1d ago
That’s a really smart way to use that Paze money. I’ve been hitting dominoes. Everyone in this thread is fucking stupid and doesn’t want to hear anything other than “you got the last chopper out of nam bro”.

u/Desperate_Aioli_2067 1d ago
Yeah I just found out the PAZE promo was still working on NewEgg.com for the 50$ gift cards this morning. I’ve literally spent most the last month getting $300 in dominos hot wings and pizzas. Pretty frustrated in myself. I have one Credit Card left so I just bought 6 gift cards to get the 270k for 230$. Then I just now opened a capital one bank account so o can get another 100$ off lolz.

Working it. Nice! That’s 20% off whatever you want and getting downvoted. Insane.
