I'm trying to decide on a GPU to match with my AMD 5700X for gaming at 4K. Right now, I have a 6700XT but I'm considering upgrading to the 9070XT. However, with NVIDIA's refresh coming, I'm wondering if I should hold out for something like the 5070 Ti Super or even the 5080 Super. I can afford it, so what would you recommend?

For 4K gaming, it's all about getting the strongest GPU you can find. The more powerful the card, the better your performance will be, so consider going for something that really packs a punch.
If you're happy with your current games but feeling the itch for a boost, I'd definitely suggest waiting for the super versions. The current 50 series isn't the best since they're often limited by VRAM, especially the 5080. It's better to wait and get more power.
If your current setup still works well for the games you play, even if the settings are a bit low, maybe it’s best to just wait. Unless there's a new title on the horizon that you're eager to try, patience might pay off here.
Are you thinking of getting the 5080 Super right at launch? Then maybe upgrade the rest when Zen 6 drops? Seems like a solid plan!
