Proud owner of a 5700XT once.  The drivers......SUUUUUUCKKKKKKEEEEEEEDDDDD!  In case that was not clear, they SUCKED!!!

I sold it back then, got a 2070 Super and it fixed all of my issues.  Yes NIVIDIA can have driver issues but compared to AMD it is night and day.  FFSAKE the black screen issue recently came back.

I am at a point, that the Intel/NVIDIA band wagon is what I will be on until I give up PC gaming.  I simply do not have the time to see what AMD is doing.  Unless NVIDIA or Intel completely takes a massive shit and destroy themselves I wont touch AMD.

I still own a 5700. The drivers sucked so bad they were basically unusable at launch through to around 3-4 months after it was purchased, and from there it calmed down to fairly regularly experiencing driver crashes and requiring a DDU every 6 months. It still does this to this day, I had to DDU it again due to driver crash issues AGAIN last month. It's been three and a half f!cking years, AMD, come on.

I've had issues with my other AMD cards like the 6600 XT, RX 570 &amp; 580, and the HD 8490, but none of them came close to the 5700. The 6600 XT has thankfully been much better than my older cards, but it still has required one DDU after the first full year of owning it.

Meanwhile, over the last 8 years, I had been running a GTX 750 1GB without a single driver issue over all 8 of those years. It was finally retired and replaced with an RX 580 that required a DDU within a couple months...
