I’ve seen on here a few times that the general consensus is to stick with XFX/Sapphire/PowerColor and to avoid Gigabyte/Asus/MSI. Where does ASRock fall into that split? I’m in the market for a 7800xt. Of all those preferable board partners does one stick out as being better, or can’t really lose as long as it’s not one of the “bad” group?

    I’ve got ASRock Phantom Gaming 7800xt, it’s fine. No premium feel to it and there’s nothing in the box but the card itself but it’s decent in every respect - quiet, cool enough (hotspot 85° under stress-test overclocked, 75° at stock), some RGB, solid build - there’s really nothing to gripe about

      Which is fine by me! Doesn’t need to be a stellar standout as long as it works well. Thanks.
