I recently upgraded from an Intel Arc 770 to an ASRock RX 9070 XT (16GB VRAM).
Apart from this bug, which may be fixed in SU5, it is giving very good framerates when paired with my i7-12700K - 80’s in graphically demanding situations such as large airports (KJFK, EGLL, etc) & 120 elswhere (I restrict the max frame rate to 120 which is the same as my TV’s refresh rate).
