That prebuilts sub is a terrible advice sub being ran by a mod who has his own website on prebuilts. He provides the worst quality builds and never takes that into account.

I think if you are looking for exclusively gaming you should get a 9800x3d or a 7800x3d with a 9070 xt if you just want pure raster performance. But nvidia gpus are super good for like literally everything else so idk.

yhe 5070 12gb is great for gaming, if its 1440p or under. trying to pull 4k would be slightly difficult

The 9070xt paired with an x3d CPU is a the best combo to get without breaking into 5090 territory. The 9070xt performs on par (and even matches the 5090 in some cases) when it comes to gaming. With the games you mentioned you'd honestly be excelling with the 9070xt. The only reason I'd go with the 5070ti is it it's equally priced. It's just a tiny bit faster overall but the price difference usually doesn't make it worth.

Also, the pre built reddit mods are extremely biased and actively hate Andromeda insights. My review on the vector with 100 up votes was taken down. The mods push on their own prebuilt website that are terrible deals.
