I'm trying to choose between a graphics card setup with the 9070XT paired with 16GB of DDR5 RAM, or going for the 9070 with 32GB of RAM. I usually don't run many background applications, but I'm concerned about whether 16GB will be enough for gaming and if I might run into performance issues. What do you think?

You haven’t mentioned what games you’re playing or your resolution, but the 9070XT setup is likely going to outshine the 9070 in most typical scenarios.
Definitely go for the 9070. The performance difference isn't worth sacrificing 32GB of RAM, especially for gaming.
I'd recommend the 9070XT with just a single 16GB DDR5 stick. You can always add another 16GB later when prices drop, which could save you money right now. Just make sure you plan for it!
Honestly, if you go with the 9070 and 32GB of RAM, you'll probably notice that 16GB could struggle in some situations, especially in more demanding games.
