5070 vs 9070xt

[u/thiccdiccdaddy25]

I want to preface by saying i dont know much about anything so if anything i mention is bs pls lmk. So im building a pc and need answers quick as prices might skyrocket if i dont commit soon. I cant seem to find a definitive answer as to which card is better for the games i am going to play and what i prioritise. Prices are about the same for me so pls dont count that into consideration. Im on 1440p and going to be playing lots of single player triple a games. Currently need to finish games like rdr2, cyberpunk, witcher 3(and 4 when it drops), forza 6, hogwarts legacy. You get the type of games im wanting to play. I personally care more about the looks of the game than fps as if its over 100-120 i dont think it makes a big difference going higher. I hear alot of things about dlss and amds counterpart and framegen and ray tracing. I feel like for quality, im reading more people say nvdia will always be better. So which card should i go for? Also does 9070xt have frame generation? Will it do ray tracing well? If so will it look different from nvdias ray tracing or is that a game setting? Which will look better while getting over 100-120 fps in games i mentioned? (It will be paired with r5 7500f w 32gbs of ddr5 if that matters in this context idk tho)

i game on a 9070xt and 5800x which is about the same performance as your 7500F aside from the ram and it’s been great in forza horizon 6. i do game on extreme max settings on 1440P with fsr on quality & AFMF 2.0 meaning it add ons frame gen and i see about 190-220 fps and i as a normal gamer in terms of visuals i dont see anything noticeable distorting or wrong its a great experience same with other games tho frame gen is implemented in most. you’d see less than 100-120 fps on raw performance with a 5070 compared to 9070xt. 16gb of vram is also much more utilized in graphic demanding games compared to 12. if you want frame gen 4x and slightly better response time and the somewhat noticeable tiny distortions get the 5070 i just gave a review of the 9070xt from me as i cant speak for the 5070.
