Hey everyone! I'm trying to decide between the 9070XT Swift and the Sapphire Pure for my new build. I'm planning to pair it with an R5 7600X, but I'm a bit torn on which card to go with. The Sapphire Pure is about 30 AUD more than the Swift. Are either of these cards any good? Any thoughts would be super helpful, thanks!

The Sapphire Pure does have a slight edge with higher max boost clock speeds compared to the Swift, but honestly, that doesn't make a huge difference in overall performance. It really comes down to what you prefer aesthetically and maybe a little on cooling.
I found some benchmarks showing that the Pure could deliver around 5-6 more frames than the Swift. Not sure if that's worth the extra cost, though!
