Question How would a 1070Ti perform?

[lakedude]

Well that 5700 is doing just great up against the 1080ti. I wonder why my searching turned up better results for the nVidia cards? Sorry, was just trying to help...

Unsolicited opinion aside; You got a good haul of cards for $100 each.

Definitely, the seller had the 1080 and RX5700 XT listed for 250.00 but also had the 1080Ti he hadn't listed yet. Guess he wanted to just sell them rather spend the time and energy to sell them for top dollar. He also was kind of far out so it was a drive. I think all three cards are well worth what I payed. I know there is a driver overhead issue maybe the 1080/1080Ti would do better with a Skylake.

Searching local listings on FB and craigslist takes a lot of time but every other place used video cards are still over priced.

2070S vs 5700XT

Thanks for the benchmarks. Sifting through youtube videos can be duaghting. The R5 7600 is barely awake. Not sure how much lower a CPU I can go before it would limit either card. I'm going to try pairing the RX5700 XT with the E5-2690 v2. 10 core and 3.0-3.6ghz so hoping for 3.4ghz on all 10 cores. I get 400mhz boast on all 12 cores with my E5-2695 v2

Might be CPU related. If you look at GPU reviews they usually use the fastest CPU possible so not to have any CPU bottleneck but that skews the result. Nvidia driver overhead is a real factor but doesn't come into play if you have the most recent blazing fast CPU. But most people don't, most people have mid range CPU's and Nvidia's "advantage" disappears in the real world.
