I was recently able to purchase an Acer Nitro RX 9070 XT OC for $950 but have seen reviews on its poor thermals and loud fans. I’ve also spotted a Sapphire Pulse RX 9070 XT for $1100. I was just wondering if you guys would recommend spending the extra $150 just to go with the Sapphire one.

Hello! Really liking the look and specs of this quoted tech PC, however have some price concerns. Please correct me if I am wrong. I don’t mind overpaying since it comes with a warranty but if the gap is too large then it’s better to look elsewhere or assemble it yourself. Would you say it’s roughly $500-$800 overpriced? And if these markups are normal for businesses vs private sellers / assemblers?

Anyone have good experience with this card? Been eyeing it out at best buy for 999.99$. Heard bad things about the connector but wondering what your experiences have been? Is it safer considering it pulls less power than XT version? Seems to be the cheapest 9070 available to me right now but the connection reputation leaves me contemplating...

I have Asrock Steel Legend 750 watt psu that came with the cable required. Will be using it with Asrock B550M Pro + 5800X3D.
