Does this game still dislike Amd Rdna gpu's?
I know back in 5700XT days there was a lot of directx crashes and few years later people repoted the same on 6800Xt and later on 7900xtx too. But sone say 7900xtx crashes are caused by faulty reference cards. I'm thinking about moving from nvidia(no crashes in 3years) to Amd Rx7900Gre. Good idea?

No, it was fixed. Took a long, long time for them to do it though. I changed my graphics card but always kept an eye out to see how long it'd take for them to fix it.

Price 7900 Gre has similar performance compared to 4070 Super while costing less, 7900XT is better(at least in FFXIV) while being 20% cheaper comoared to 4070 Ti Super.

That is if amd doesnot messes up driver updates from time to time .their quality check before sending the update to public is mediocre. It was one of the reason I switched to nvidia this time

If I were you .I would not do it . As you yourself have said that you have not faced any problem on nvidia .so don't change something that is working right for u .

I had a fc member who had amd card I don't remember the specs exactly and I am no longer in the fc so can't reconfirm it but they did say they had problems with crashing after installing the new drivers of amd .it was 2 months ago iirc .

Yep, figured if this was happening to FFXIV chances were it would also be happening with other games. People say to not expect Nvdia quality control levels from AMD because Nvidia is a way bigger company and I understand that but being unable to play a game (as I literally was with FFXIV before changing my graphic cards) just sucks big, big time. Hard to justify buying a graphic cards that wont you know... play games.

I pretty much only play FF14 and Pso2, so if FF14 doesnt work, theres no point in upgrading. I keep looking for a suitable 4070 Ti Super or wait for 5070.

I playede on RX 480 (8gb variant) 3 years ago and it worked flawlessly. Even mine fps didnt sucked despite not so low settings.

I played the game on AMD GCN(7770, RX460, RX580) since release in 2013.

Navi drivers are a whole lot different compared to Polaris, even Vega56/64 had some driver issues.

So far I do have friends playing with RDNA 2 and 3 GPUs (someone even with a 7900XTX) and their experience is flawless.
The only problematic generation I see is RDNA 1 and those unfortunately got a broken display engine at the silicon level and by nature, are far more sensitive to RAM speeds or the quality of your power supply
