DanielP2 on Sapphire PULSE Radeon RX 9070 16GB GDDR6 Graphics Card $1049 Delivered ($0 VIC/SYD/ADL C&C) @ Centre Com

cromangon on XFX Swift Radeon RX 9070 XT Dual Fan Gaming Edition 16GB GPU $1139 + Delivery ($0 to Metro/ VIC, QLD, NSW C&C) @ Scorptec

Thermals don't really seem to be much of an issue with any of the 9070XT. Generally it's the 330-340W power limit that caps you. The main…

stimutacs on ASRock Radeon RX 9070 XT Taichi 16GB OC Graphics Card $1299 + Delivery ($0 VIC C&C) @ Scorptec

They draw between 300-360W depending on undervolts/OCs etc. So 850W probably plenty.

Essentially games are already needing 10GB or higher at 1080P so buying a new system with less is limiting... I'd lean towards doing a BYO…

Yeah I forgot the 8GB 4060ti existed definitely meant the 16GB model that's still a touch cheaper 4070

Lesco Brandon on Sapphire PULSE Radeon RX 7800 XT 16GB GDDR6 Graphics Card $679 + Delivery ($0 with Account/ C&C) + Surcharge @ Centre Com

Also models like VRAM right? So potential for the 4060 ti to be better than a 4070 for cheaper? (With worse gaming) Depending on priorities

This definitely puts the A580 well above the 4060 in my books. VRAM is such a hard limit in some games. If you don't care about ray tracing…
