Hey everyone! A few weeks back, I got some great help from you all when choosing a CPU for my build, so I'm back for more advice but this time about graphics cards. I've been looking at three options: the 4070 Super, 4070 TI Super, and RX 9070 XT. I've read some benchmarks from Tom's Hardware, but I'm still on the fence. The 4070 Super is the most affordable of the bunch, but it's also the weakest performer. The 4070 TI Super is the most expensive, which is a bit concerning since the benchmarks show the RX 9070 XT performs better for a price that's in between the other two. One thing that holds me back from the RX 9070 XT is the fact that it uses GDDR6 instead of GDDR6X like the other two. I've come across mixed opinions about how much the difference in RAM types actually matters, with some folks saying it's negligible while others suggest it's all about the core clock. Can anyone provide clarity on which GPU offers the best value for the price?

Honestly, if you’re trying to get the most bang for your buck, I’d recommend looking at the 5070 TI or 9070 XT. The newer models have better features and performance. If the pricing aligns well with their MRSP, definitely consider those options.
I’m curious, why not go for the newer NVIDIA models? Aren't they supposed to be better?
