I'm considering upgrading my graphics card, and I see that the 5070 Ti is still available locally before it potentially phases out. Currently, I have a 3060 Ti paired with a 12400F CPU, and I game on a 1440p monitor with a refresh rate of 165Hz. The 3060 Ti has performed decently enough for the games I play, but I'm looking to improve my daughter's setup as well; she has a GTX 1660. I'm wondering if investing in the 5070 Ti for $750 is worth it right now, or if I should consider the standard 5070 instead.

I just upgraded to a 5070 Ti, and it's incredible. I can play games like FF7 Remake at 4K with smooth frame rates. It's a solid investment for gaming at 1440p—just make sure your motherboard supports it!
Definitely a huge upgrade. I've seen over double the raw performance switching from a 3070 Ti to the 5070 Ti. It handles 1440p beautifully with all the latest features like DLSS. Your daughter is going to love the hand-me-down 3060 Ti!
If you're looking at the 5070 Ti and it's close to MSRP, it's hands-down the best option in the 50 series cards right now. For 1440p, it'll definitely give you a significant upgrade in performance. The difference really depends on the specific games you play, but overall, it's worth every penny!
Upgrading from a 3060 Ti to a 5070 Ti is a fantastic choice! I've got a similar setup, and that switch gave me a massive performance boost. I'm consistently hitting over 100 FPS at ultra settings in most of my games at 1440p. Plus, it's more power-efficient and quieter than the previous generation cards. I say go for it!
I agree! It's a game changer for higher resolutions.

That's one of the main reasons I want to make this upgrade; I'd love for her to have a better card!
