I'm looking to upgrade my GPU and I'm torn between the 7900 XT (priced at 700€), the 7900 XTX (900€), and the RTX 5070 Ti (also around 900€). The prices in Europe are quite chaotic, making it tough to figure out which is the best value for money. My current setup includes an i5-13500, 32GB DDR4 RAM, and an RTX 3060 Ti. Since I've switched from 1080p to 1440p for gaming, particularly in Microsoft Flight Simulator, my current GPU struggles to keep up, especially due to its limited 8GB memory, which leads to noticeable stuttering. Given my situation, which GPU would you choose?

If the 9070XT is available, I’d highly recommend looking into that too if you want a balance between performance and price. It could be a better deal if you're gaming at 1440p.
If you're mainly focused on gaming performance, I'd say go for the RTX 5070 Ti. It's a solid choice unless you're specifically in need of features that Nvidia offers, like CUDA support for certain applications.
Yeah, but if the 9070XT fits your budget, it might deliver better performance for the price. Just something to consider!
I really think you should go with the RTX 5070 Ti. It’s worth the cash for the performance you’re getting, especially if you play demanding games like Microsoft Flight Simulator a lot.
Don’t forget about the 9070XT! It’s around 700€ and could outperform the 7900 series in many scenarios, especially if you’re not playing games that rely heavily on ray tracing.
Right? And it’s just a matter of considering how much you value ray tracing. If that's not a priority, the 9070XT might be your best pick.

Yeah, I've seen some solid benchmarks for the 9070XT. It's definitely worth considering if you don't mind a little extra hunting for the best price.
