You say that as it's in the past, have you moved on to something else?

No, the R9700 I have got fried by a power supply fault, and GPU replacements are not always trivial.

Of the two affordable options for good 32G compute, the R9700 would be the best of the two (compared to the Arc Pro B70).

Interesting, how did the fault happen for you? Was the PSU underpowered? I have a 850W unit, so you think it’ll be enough?

Accidental - miswired PCIe power such that it went back into a SATA/molex modular port.

Somehow managed to not break anything else though, but an experience not to repeat.
