So my early thoughts on the A770 is that it's a hell of a steal at the price it's at. It does a great job at handling max settings at 1080p, with RTS on on Spider-Man remastered. I think it could handle 1440p on these settings as well, but 4K you'd have to probably turn off RTS or dial the settings down. I don't have a 4K TV, so this really isn't an issue for me for now.

There have been a couple of quirks that I've had to get used to. For instance, I knew that Spider-Man had XeSS capability but it didn't show up in the launcher settings. So to enable XeSS, I actually had to disable all super-sampling in the launcher, and then the option for XeSS would show up in the in-game settings.

The number of games with XeSS capability is definitely smaller than DLSS and FSR, but I've also been finding that the modding community has been creating mods for XeSS for most of the newer AAA titles.

Overall, I'd definitely recommend this card for anyone who doesn't require 4K gaming. It's also on sale at MemEx right now for $479.
