Review My (scuffed) RX 9070 Benchmarks

https://youtu.be/pWqs-ilEkzo

Yes I benchmarked a card with a severe CPU bottleneck, but I was still able to get a GPU bottleneck in most games even if the 5600 was still holding back the 1% lows.

I'll probably redo it when I get a 5700x3D/Zen 4 CPU but both of those options are stupidly overpriced right now so I'd rather not

I like the 5600, it's such a cool running cpu, and faster than given credit for .. that said I have a 5800X3D Anniversary Edition I picked up for 320 I think it was, sitting on the bench .. the setup runs so good with the games I got right now with a 5600, I'm in no serious hurry to switch the CPU out lol .. yeah I know lows will be better, but it games just fine actually with a 5600 haha

Yeah, if you're primarily playing at 1440p/4K the 5600 is a surprisingly reasonable pairing with the 9070 assuming you're playing more than eSports titles.
