I am going to be upgrading my graphics card soon. and the ones in my price range are the above mentioned. Which do you think I should get.

As a side note the runners up were a 7900 XTX or 4080 both used. The reason I'm thinking of going with the above two are my Mobo ihas gen 5 PCIE.

My choice was 5070ti, but only because they are the same price with 9070xt where I live.

Usually, 9070xt costs around 80$ cheaper, which makes it a no-brainer to pick up over 5070ti, imo. Same performance, often better. Only slightly worse in RT, but, honestly, it's often not worth turning it on anyway. It also has better Linux support and better driver support.

I would probably not go for 7900xtx because of FSR4 and subpar RT performance, which are kinda needed in some of the recent games (rip optimisation). But if you don't care about those, it may be worth picking up.

4080... Depends on the price. I wouldn't take it for a price higher than 5070ti.
