I'm trying to decide between getting the RX 9070 XT for $890 or saving up for the RTX 5070 Ti which is priced at $1200. Is the $310 price difference worth it for what I plan to do, mainly 4K gaming? I recently found the MSI Trio version of the RTX 5070 Ti, which is just $120 more. Do you think those extra features like DLSS4 justify spending that much more?

If we're talking between those two, I’d stick with the 9070 XT. The 5070 Ti doesn't really justify the extra cost unless it's packed with features you need for more than just gaming.
Honestly, I'd say go for the 5070 Ti if you can swing the extra cash. It might be $100 more than the 9070 XT, but the performance is better, especially for that price point. Just keep in mind that $1200 for it is pretty steep overall.
The RX 9070 XT might be only 5% slower than the 5070 Ti on average for gaming, which isn't worth the extra $300 in my opinion. If gaming is your main focus, the 9070 XT should do just fine for 4K too! You could save a ton that way.
What about this MSI Trio version of the 5070 Ti? It’s only $120 more than the original price!

I feel you on the pricing, it's really crazy right now!
