Hey everyone! Both the RTX 5070 Ti AERO OC and the EAGLE OC Ice are on sale right now, but there's a $90 price difference between the two. I'm trying to figure out if there are any significant differences that would justify choosing the AERO OC, which is the more expensive option, or if I should just go with the EAGLE instead. Any insights would be appreciated!

The AERO has better cooling and a slightly higher power limit. But honestly, I wouldn’t spend an extra $90 just for that. If you’re on a budget, the EAGLE should perform well enough for most games.
If you're looking for price/performance, the 9070XT is cheaper and delivers almost the same performance. If you don’t need CUDA, that’s a solid choice!

I don't need CUDA, but could you recommend a specific brand for the 9070XT? Also, would my Ryzen 7 9800X3D work well with it? I'm considering either the Sapphire Radeon RX 9070 XT Pulse or the Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT.
