I'm trying to decide between the 9600XT with 16GB and the 5060Ti also with 16GB. The 5060Ti is about £40 more expensive, or roughly $60. Do you think it's worth it to spend the extra for the 5060Ti? I'd really appreciate your input!

If you're into productivity work, Nvidia is a solid bet. But for pure gaming, I'd suggest the 9600XT. It's usually cheaper and has fewer driver issues compared to the newer 50 series cards. Just my two cents!
I wouldn't go for the 5060Ti - it’s not worth the extra cash. Plus, there are ethical concerns with Nvidia given their stance on various issues. I think we should reconsider supporting them.
Honestly, the 9600XT 16GB is a superior choice for gaming without breaking the bank. I've been using AMD for over six years and never faced serious driver problems. Those who complain about AMD likely haven't owned a recent card.
What kind of games are you planning to play, and at what resolution? That could really help narrow it down.
I'm looking at playing Microsoft Flight Simulator, Fortnite, and War Thunder.

I get the concerns about drivers, but didn’t AMD just sort out their driver issues recently? I use a 50 series card and haven't encountered any problems.
