I'm considering upgrading my graphics card and I want some advice on whether to go with the RTX 5070 Ti or the RX 9070 XT. Here are the prices I'm seeing:
- Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Windforce OC 16GB for 3599zł ($1000)
- Sapphire Radeon RX 9070 XT Pulse Nitro+ 16GB for 3200zł ($890)
My current setup includes an i5-14600KF processor, an RTX 3060 with 12GB of RAM, and 64GB of system RAM. What do you think would be the better choice?

If you're considering diving into some AI stuff, the RTX 5070 Ti is definitely the way to go. ROCm can be a bit tricky on Windows, and if you’re not into that, the 9070 XT should treat you well. Just think about what you plan to do with your card before deciding!
If you're primarily gaming, you might want to lean towards the cheaper RX 9070 XT. Performance-wise, they’re pretty close, so save some cash unless you really need NVIDIA's DLSS or ray tracing features. One thing to note though, drivers for AMD on Windows haven't been perfect lately, but some people say they work fine. Might depend on the game you play.
Hey, just a heads up, I've got the 9070 XT running on Windows 11, and honestly, the drivers have been solid for me. Performance is good, so don't hesitate if you're looking for savings!
