Hey everyone! I'm upgrading my setup and need some advice. Right now, I have a Ryzen 5 3600X paired with a GTX 1070 Ti. I'm planning to switch to an i7-12700KF but can't decide on the GPU. I found a GTX 1080 Ti SC2 for $120 and an RTX 3070 Ti for $230 (the only issue is that the PCIe connector is slightly bent due to GPU sag). Both options fit my budget, but I'm confused about which one to choose. Any thoughts?

You might want to consider if switching to the 12700KF is the best option. Why not stick with a Ryzen 5 5600 or 5800X? It might save you some cash since you're already on AM4. Plus, I’ve heard staying with AMD can work well with Nvidia cards too!
I’d be cautious about the RTX 3070 Ti. Just check that it works perfectly, especially with that bent PCIe. But honestly, if it checks out, I'd go for the 3070 Ti. It has better performance and newer features, making it a solid choice for the future.
