I'm currently using a Ryzen 7 7700X and planning to pair it with an RX 9070. However, I noticed that the RX 9070 XT is just slightly more expensive. When I checked a bottleneck calculator, it showed a bottleneck score of 5.6 with the 9070 XT. Should I still go ahead and upgrade to the 9070 XT despite this?

I have the 7700 and a 9070 XT running at 4K and I've had zero issues. In fact, my other system has a 7800X3D paired with a 9070 XT, and I'm only getting about 7fps more there. Both setups have similar RAM, NVMe, PSU, and AIO cooling, but the 9070 XT will likely last longer and hold its value better down the line.
