Looking at these three 5070 Ti cards which is the best value?

Palit GamingPro-S $884

Gigabyte Windforce OC - $890

Gigabyte Eagle Ice OC - $910

All share the same core performance. Key differences come down to cooling, noise, and factory OC.

I've also heard the Windforce has better OC headroom thanks to BIOS flashing options, though I've never tried it myself and not sure I would

Broken hardware acceleration in Chrome, Firefox, and MS Office with 9070 XT

Has anyone with a 9070 XT experienced broken hardware acceleration in web browsers like Chrome and Firefox, as well as in native Microsoft Office apps? It makes the card completely unusable for any kind of work. Any fixes out there? I have already tried multiple driver versions, including the latest.

I currently have a 9070 XT but am considering switching due to disappointing ray/path tracing results, the overall feature set, and driver stability issues.

For those using a 5070 Ti at 1440p or 4K with DLSS, how does path tracing hold up? Can the card maintain 60 FPS in most current titles at 1440p using DLSS 4 Balanced? Games like Pragmata and Requiem are of particular interest. Benchmarks are available but often lack real-world context, so I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has actually played through these games with path tracing enabled.

Before commenting on the 9070 XT drivers, note that I have used AMD GPUs for years and this would be my first Nvidia card. I am familiar with AMD's typical issues and am done with them.

Main pad is some old cheap thing so either one is an upgrade. I play CoD, BF, and GTA. Yan Pro is sold out. Options:

  • Yan Standard Red, $9 - fast surface, standard rubber base
  • Yan pro $30
  • Taisu Pro Blue, $13.60 - controlled surface (Zero clone), upgraded polyurethane base

Question: is the faster surface worth the worse base? Or pay the extra $4.60 for the Pro base and deal with the slower glide? Anyone used either?

System Specifications:

  • GPU: 9070 XT
  • CPU: 7800X3D
  • PSU: Cooler Master MWE Gold V3 850W (ATX 3.1, Non-Modular)

An earlier problem with occasional stuttering was resolved by updating the BIOS and graphics drivers. A new, more serious issue has since appeared. No overclocking or undervolting has been applied.

The current symptoms are:

  • Frequent stuttering in Battlefield 6, often paired with audio glitches and static noise.
  • In GTA V Enhanced (maximum settings, ray tracing enabled), the system experiences a hard crash. The computer freezes completely, sometimes outputs static noise, hangs for a moment, and then crashes. Has happened many times.

Troubleshooting steps already taken:

  • Clean installation of Windows and GPU drivers.
  • Toggled HAGS, currently set to on.
  • Toggled EXPO on and off, currently set to on.
  • Ran MemTest86, which completed without errors.
  • Ran 3DMark stress tests, no crashes occurred.

In Ark Raiders, gameplay is mostly stable with occasional stuttering that decreases over time. Capping the FPS to 120 or 60 usually eliminates or reduces the stuttering in BF6.

Any guidance on which component might be failing (GPU, CPU, PSU, or another part) would be appreciated. Would undervolt or reducing clock speeds help with stability?
