I'm currently using a 4060 with 8GB of VRAM and I'm considering upgrading to either the 5060 Ti with 16GB for around $450, or saving up a bit longer to get the 5070 for about $670. I'm trying to decide which option would be best for my gaming needs, especially since I play at 1440p and focus on story-driven games like RDR2. Would appreciate any advice!

Before making a decision, consider your gaming resolution and the types of games you play. What's your full system spec? You might want to check using HWInfo64 to get a good overview. It can help us to give better suggestions!
If your games require more VRAM, the 5060 Ti could be worth it. But if you're leaning towards future-proofing and can handle the wait, saving for the 5070 might be the smarter long-term choice.
The 5060 Ti with 16GB is a solid choice for that price, especially if you're into games that can use more VRAM. However, the 5070 will definitely offer better performance overall. Just think about how much you value performance versus price.
I'm using an ASUS setup with an AMD Ryzen 5 5600X, 32GB of RAM, and I'm gaming at 1440P, mainly on story-driven titles like RDR2.
