Long term Radeon Fan here. but probs gonna make the switch.
That RTX 2070 Super looks awfully good to me. And I'm absolutely *in love* with the Turing reference card design, and the chrome/shiny Super one looks so good. Aaaaa what is wrong with me? Haha - I just feel this, plus some ability to use hardware RT on my 144 Hz 1080p monitor in Metro Exodus (Something I'm waiting to replay with DXR), and almost a 2080 for 200 bucks less.
We'll see what AMD cards are like, but 2070 Super is probably going to be faster than the 5700XT and with the added features etc, I feel it will offer the same or more value whilst giving me that ability to play with DXR.
Course, there's always the 3rd option of: Don't buy anything this year cuz all I play is Warframe and the RX 590 is giving me 120FPS+ in that. Buuuut...
For me personally, the folding @ home fp32 and fp64 are very revealing of a cards compute performance. I think AT authors were looking into it, but if you added a compute benchmark involving blender for 2019 I'd be tickled. Thanks!

The market isn't huge, it's *miniscule*. It really is a rounding-error.AshlayW - Tuesday, July 2, 2019 - link

The itch. It's real.

Must be tiring to always have your hopes up for the next card, and always having them turn out kinda meh.Good call, since it looks like a while before AMD will have something competitive. (Or something with hardware RT!)
As a future PS5 owner, In starting to get worried.

V900.. the more tiring part.. is the over priced hardware that is out there.. gotta love lack of competition...Meteor2 - Saturday, July 6, 2019 - link

@Ryan Please run your full suite of compute benchmarks on the up coming 5700 series. It's important to me. Thanks!biodoc - Tuesday, July 2, 2019 - link
I agree. Thanks!Ryan Smith - Tuesday, July 2, 2019 - link
To be sure, what would you like to see that wasn't in this article?ballsystemlord - Tuesday, July 2, 2019 - link
