AMD is really bad driver wise compared to Nvdia. Alot of issues with ym system. I should of gotten the 4800 over the 7900XTX. Can't even flip the 7900XTX for $500.

I've had an AMD GPU for over a year, and no issues. The only issues I had were when I had just replaced my old Nvidia GPU with the current AMD one. And, in that case, it was Windows to blame, not AMD or Nvidia. I've actually had more driver issues and game crashes with my Nvidia GPUs than my desktop AMD ones in the past couple of years—not saying that one is better than the other, just my experience.
Also, use the stable (i.e., WHQL shown as "Recommended Only" in the Radeon software) AMD drivers, not the latest ("Optional"), which are still being refined (https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/faq/dh2-016). I hope this helps.

PS: You can't flip the 7900 XTX for $500??? You're using hyperbole, for sure. Used ones sell for $800–900+ on eBay.

Agreed that AMD drivers are very good overall. Only issue I had with my RX 6500 XT was that my computer would often be unable to wake from sleep mode. Tried everything but nothing worked (e.g. clean installs, etc.). I did recently switch to a RTX 4070 when I scored a fantastic deal on it ($430) and the sleep issue no longer happens. I would have no problem going back to an AMD card though.

I've been using AMD cards for nearly a decade now and the last time I had a significant driver issue with them was over 5 years ago (an update issue that required DDU to clear up). My experience since has been great.
Its pathetic this would even be considered a deal in 2023. Just bought a nice used 3080 for $370 (even that is expensive for a 3 year old card). Will wait for a real deal whenever that might be

I've got a 6700xt and looking to build another (faster) rig. AMD GPU's work just fine- I've been using them for years.

Use DDU (https://www.guru3d.com/download/d...-download/) to clean up remnants of your previous GPU's drivers. A windows reset or fresh install would also help, if needed.

Any thoughts between the two? Price difference is pretty large.
