I'm trying to figure out which GPU is superior between the 9070 XT and the 5070 Ti. There's been a lot of debate on this, and I haven't found a definitive answer yet. Assuming both are priced the same, which one should I go for?

It might be worth considering that some people suggest the 9070 XT performs better in specific games, especially older titles. So, while the 5070 Ti generally comes out on top in benchmarks, real-world performance can vary depending on what you're playing.
The 5070 Ti is considered better overall. It delivers about 5% better in raster performance and significantly improves ray tracing and upscaling. Plus, it uses power more efficiently, making it a solid choice for productivity as well. Overall, it's more power efficient than the 9070 XT.
On paper, sure, the 5070 Ti looks better, but I've noticed some unexpected performance dips in certain games compared to the 9070 XT. The general consensus is that there might be driver issues affecting the 5000 series cards, leading to inconsistencies in performance. I've been kind of disappointed in my 5070 Ti after comparing it to a friend's 9070 XT.
Just a heads up, Nvidia has had some driver issues lately which could affect the performance of the 5070 Ti significantly. If those issues get resolved, it might change the whole picture in terms of how these cards perform against each other.
Definitely the 5070 Ti. It's got better performance in virtually every aspect, especially with DLSS being superior to FSR. Plus, it's cooler and quieter while using less power. The only real advantage the 9070 XT has is that it can occasionally be found at a much lower price, but the performance gains of the 5070 Ti generally make it worth it.
But the VRAM is the same for both cards, right?
