I'm considering a deal where I can buy a 5070 for 450 euros and sell my 4070 Super for 400 euros, making the upgrade cost only about 50 euros. Both GPUs are dual fan types, and while I've noticed the performance gains between them are less than 10%, the 5070 has new tech like MFG. I haven't used MFG due to input lag, but I wonder if it might enhance visuals in games that run over 60 fps. Also, I game on a 3440x1440p ultrawide monitor with a refresh rate of 180hz, which feels like it pushes my 4070 Super to its limits. Would the small performance boost be meaningful? What do you all think?

Absolutely! For 50 euros, the warranty and newer tech you get with the 5070 makes it a solid deal. Plus, having newer support is a nice bonus!
It really depends if the 5070 you're considering is new. If it is, then 50 euros is reasonable for the warranty and tech updates! If it's used, you might not notice that performance increase in most games you play.
And don't forget about potential noise improvements or other model-specific benefits!
Honestly, it's pretty similar to the 4070 Super aside from MFG. If you're not using the features effectively, I wouldn't rush into the upgrade.
For just 50 euros, you're getting faster memory and access to new AI technology, so I'd say it's worth it!
If you don't plan on using MFG, then skip the upgrade. Unless you have a high refresh rate monitor (think 240hz+), MFG won't really benefit you. I’d hold out for something more significant!
Yeah, it's all about whether you'll notice the performance differences in your favorite games.
