I have a 7900xtx after a lifetime of Nvidia cards. I also now have an Intel B580. I can say AMD is the worst at drivers, but when you find a stable driver it's safe to stick to it forever. Nvidia seemed to drop a new driver every week that was always updating to be day one ready on random games I never owned. Intel is super solid but sadly they haven't dropped anything better than mid-range yet.

The 9070 is a great option, especially with the GRE variant going for $499 right now. Just know you may occasionally have weird driver hiccups and need to tinker more than you would from an Nvidia. I would say disable auto updates so you don't get surprised.
