    need some advice on a new GPU
    just built a new system

    INTEL® CORE I7 10700K PROCESSOR,
    TUF GAMING MOTHERBOARD,
    16 GB RAM CORSAIR VENGEANCE
    FROSTFLOW LIQUID COOLER (STOCK FAN CHANGED TO CORSAIR LL120)
    SAMSUNG 970 EVO PRO 512 NVME M.2 (FOR WINDOWS)
    PLUS 2 960GB SSD'S AND A 1TB MECHANICAL DRIVE
    ALL INSIDE THE CORSAIR ICUE 465 CASE

    seeing as can't get hold of a 3070
    my only other choice at the min is the AMD Radeon 5700XT
    is this a good card

    The 3070 is a much better card. Don't waste your money on a 5700XT if you have enough for a 3070. Wait until you can get one.

    Radeon 6800 should become available for order at 2pm on 18th Nov (UK time, local times may vary), mind you it may well sell out in a minute or two... but is the only way you can avoid the 3070 queue.

    Picking up some old card instead (5700 XT, 2070, whatever) just isn't worth it.
