I'm in the process of building a new PC with a Ryzen 5 9600X and I'm debating between getting the RX 9070 for around €600 or stepping up to the RX 9070XT for about €650. Is the extra €50 for the XT model worth it in terms of performance?

Just a heads up, the RX 9070XT tends to draw more power—30-40% more—so unless you're gaming in 4K, you might want to stick with the 9070. It might actually last longer too.
Yeah, for just €50 more, the RX 9070XT is definitely worth it! You'll appreciate the boost in performance for sure.
Absolutely! The performance upgrade is decent for the small price difference.
The RX 9070XT is about 10-15% faster depending on your gaming resolution. So it really comes down to what you're looking for in your gaming experience.
I would ignore the other opinions suggesting the 9070 might last longer. The performance difference is real; it's only €50 more and you'll get around 12% better performance.
