I'm almost finished building my gaming PC for 1440p gaming and I'm trying to decide between the RX 9070 for 669 euros or the 7700 XT for 419 euros. The performance difference is important to me, especially since I'm mainly playing games like ER: Nightreign and Expedition 33. Is the extra cost for the RX 9070 justified?

I’ve got a RX 6800, which is slightly behind the 7700 XT, and it handles 1440p just fine. But honestly, if I could spend around 250 bucks to upgrade to the 9070, I'd jump at the chance! It feels like a solid upgrade.
Just got my RX 9070 and let me tell you, it’s worth every penny! I was playing Borderlands 3 on the highest settings with no hiccups. Benchmark reviews show it can handle high graphics at 4K pretty well too, so that's a big plus if you plan to play demanding games.
I think the RX 9070 is totally worth it! It's about 60% more expensive but offers a whopping 61% more performance according to TechPowerUp. Plus, it has 4GB more VRAM and better ray tracing capabilities, which makes it a strong value choice.
Absolutely, the added features and performance really tip the scales in favor of the 9070!
Sounds awesome! The performance at higher settings is really tempting.
