I'm considering whether to upgrade my GPU from a 5060ti to either a 5070 for around $550 or a 5070ti for about $950. I have an i7 14700f CPU, so performance shouldn't be an issue. Should I sell my 5060ti and upgrade, or would it be better to just stick with what I have?

I think you'll want at least a 5070ti for a solid upgrade. Since your CPU is high-performance, it won’t bottleneck. Just make sure you factor in what you could sell your 5060ti for to offset the costs!
If you're aiming for 1440p at 240hz and want to ensure good value, consider looking into something like the 9070 XT. It might offer a better price-to-performance ratio for your setup.
It really depends on what you're not satisfied with right now. If it's just about getting smoother frames and high graphics settings, maybe the 9070 XT is also worth checking out!
Honestly, just the 5070ti or 9070 XT are the smart choices under $1k. If I were in your shoes, I’d go for the 5070ti and try to sell your 5060ti for about $370 to help with the upgrade.
I'm new to PC gaming, but I've been hearing about the 9070 XT's optimizations. Would it really help with HDR gaming and shooters?
