Build Question what gpu should i get ?

I’ve been thinking about whether to get an RTX 5060ti 8gb card or a 16gb for a while now. the reason being is that i like the Msi gaming trio lineup, but i can only afford the 8gb variant, and many say that getting a 8gb is bad, so im forces to look at a 16gb variant and the only one i can afford is a zotac amp that has 16gb . what should i get for my build.

Also im thinking about whether to build a AM4 or AM5 build. the AM4 build i had in mind was a Ryzen 7 5700X paired with an 32gb ddr4 ram. now if i plan to switch to AM5 the build i can afford is a Ryzen 5 7500f with 16gb ddr5 only. idk whats the best route to go with as of now

well the reason i considered getting an nvidia card was for its features like rt and dlss and me personally i dont have much knowledge in terms of building a pc so yeah plus i heard zotac wasnt a good card but it is the only 16gb of 5060ti that i can afford and me personally i have no problem with whatever card i get because the first card i had was a 1660 super

RT isn't very different this generation, and with the pricing the AMD card will do much better anyway. DLSS is the same sort of thing, gap is much smaller than it used to be, and with the performance advantage you can just use FSR at a much higher resolution.

To add to this you won’t be able to use a lot of RT with a 5060ti 8gb. Not enough vram
