I'm deciding between the RTX 5060 Ti with 16GB of RAM, which is priced about $100 cheaper, and the RTX 5070. The performance difference is estimated at around 25% to 30%. My budget only allows for the RTX 5070, and I can't consider other models like the Ti version or the RX 9070 because they aren't available in my area. What's the best choice here without feeling regret later?

If you're looking to the future, the 5070 is definitely the way to go for better performance now. But keep in mind that the 5060 Ti with 16GB might handle less demanding games better in a few years. It could last longer if you're into casual gaming and non-AAA titles.
Have you thought about the 7800 XT? It could be a good alternative to consider if it's available.
Before you make a final choice, what's your PSU model? Make sure it can handle the power requirements, especially for the 5070.
I'd recommend going for the RTX 5070. It utilizes a 6x 32-bit RAM configuration, which is more efficient than the 4x 32-bit setup of the 5060 Ti. Even though it has 12GB compared to the 5060 Ti's 16GB, the 5070’s RAM performance can be roughly 50% faster, making it a solid choice overall.
