Hey everyone! I recently bought the 5070 at Best Buy for $549.99, and I'm considering my options. I can return it for a full refund and get either the 5070 Ti for $749.99 or the 6070 XT for $719.99. Is it worth it to upgrade for 1440p gaming, or should I just stick with my current 5070?

One thing to consider is that the 5070 has only 12GB of VRAM. If you need more performance now or in the near future, upgrading is probably worth it.
It’s all about if you can feel the difference right now. If your 5070 isn’t running anything yet, you might as well go for the better cards.
The 5070 is already installed, but I can still return it for a refund. Which one do you think is better?
If you're able to get it at MSRP, I'd say go for the 5070 Ti. But seriously, ask yourself if you really need that upgrade. That’s a personal choice!
I don't technically need it, but if I can return for a full refund and just pay the extra $200, I’m tempted. Just wondering if the performance jump is worth it since the return window is closing soon.
That's actually why I'm thinking about upgrading. I've heard that 16GB will be more important for 1440p gaming in the coming years, and I’m just starting to learn about all this!
