Hey everyone! I know it might seem odd to compare the 5060 Ti with the 9070 XT, but hear me out. I'm currently running a 5600X with a 2060 Super and I'm planning to upgrade my GPU since other components are priced too high right now. I mainly play games like Hogwarts Legacy, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Cyberpunk at 1440p on a 144Hz monitor. I'm considering three options: the 5060 Ti 16GB, the 5070, and the 9070 XT, which are all similarly priced in my region. The 5060 Ti is about $150 cheaper. Do you think the 5060 Ti will suffice for my setup, or should I opt for the 5070 or the 9070 XT instead?

The 5060 Ti 16GB works for 1440p, and it does have better NVENC for streaming, but I think the extra cash for the 9070 XT is worth it.
The 9070 XT totally outperforms the 5070, no doubt about it!
Honestly, what's the price difference between the 9070 XT and the 5060 Ti?
If you’re gaming, I think the 5060 Ti can handle 1440p at high settings just fine.
For 1440p, the 5070 is a solid choice over the 5060 Ti 16GB. The 9070 XT matches up pretty well with the 5070 Ti.
9070 XT is definitely the way to go for 1440p. I'd only consider the 5060 Ti for 1080p gaming.
Neither option is a dealbreaker, but I’d suggest saving for something better in the long run.
But since the 5070 and 9070 XT are nearly the same price, wouldn’t the 9070 XT be the better pick?
