I recently sold my 7900xt and I'm in the market for a new graphics card. I'm trying to decide between four options: the RTX 5080 for $999 at MSRP, a 7900XTX for $850, a 9070XT for $750, or a 5070Ti for $800. I'd really appreciate any advice on what would be the best choice and the reasons behind your recommendations. Thanks!

If you're all about ray tracing and frame generation, go for the RTX 5070Ti. But if those features don’t matter to you, I’d lean towards the 9070XT. Honestly, the gain from the 5080 isn't enough to justify the extra cash, since it's only about 10% better.
If you can swing the price and get the RTX 5080 at MSRP, it's a solid choice. It outperforms the 9070XT, so I’d recommend that. But if it stretches your budget too much, the 9070XT is a good alternative!
Is the 7900XTX a bad pick? I'm considering it mainly for the 24GB of VRAM, but not sure if it's worth it.
