Hey everyone! I recently built a PC but still need to decide on a GPU. I'm torn between the Radeon 7800 XT priced at $527 and the 5060 Ti at $600. I'll be using it mainly for 1080p video editing and gaming at 1440p/1080p, and I'm not really focused on ray tracing. I just want something that will remain relevant for a few years. Here are my current specs: Ryzen 5 7600, 16 GB DDR5 RAM, Cooler Master Gold v2 750W PSU, and an MSI B650M Gaming WiFi motherboard. Should I just go ahead and pick one, or wait a bit longer?

If you can hold out a bit, I heard that prices might drop soon for other models. I saw a non-XT 9070 at $670—might be worth keeping an eye on those!
I’d go for the 7800 XT. It offers better value for your needs, especially since the 5060 Ti seems to only be worth it if you're really into those Nvidia features.
Thanks! It sounds like the 7800 XT is the way to go.
Wow, that's a bit more than I expected! It’s $920 where I am, yikes!
