I'm considering upgrading my GPU from a 5700 XT to something that can consistently handle 1440p gaming at 60 FPS with medium to high settings. The options I'm looking at are the 9060 XT for 410 CAD, the 5070 for 770 CAD, and the 9070 XT for 900 CAD. If I go with the 9060 XT or 5070, I also have the chance to pick up 32 GB of RAM for a similar price as the 9070 XT. What do you think? Which GPU would you recommend based on performance and value?

I have the 9060 XT and it handles 1440p gaming pretty well. I'd recommend that plus going for the 32GB RAM. It’s a great budget option, and more RAM is definitely becoming the norm for newer games.
The 9070 XT is a solid choice if you can stretch your budget a bit. It's a powerhouse and really outperforms the other options, especially if you're aiming for great ray tracing capabilities and the best overall performance in modern games. You won't regret it!
Totally agree! Plus, I feel like it's worth investing in a decent card that lasts longer rather than upgrading again in a year.
