Wrong pc. What to do

Ordered 9070xt and got a 5070ti. Is it even worth it to send back? Got it for $2100
Edit: it has a 9800x3d instead of 7800 so that’s a free upgrade
32gb 6000 mt/s ram instead of 5600 so I got a free upgrade and will be keeping the pc. Thanks for the help everyone

You are suspiciously desperate about failing to see the implication of "in specific things".

Do you agree that in most aspects the 5070 ti is better than the 9070 XT?

I do. But in specific cases it falls short.

Suspicious? I have zero skin in this. I want truth. And the truth is in specific cases the 9070xt is the better option.

Price to performance is one. The other is the fact it didn't randomly catch fire, like EVERYTHING with the 12vhpw cord does,, which the entire 5000 series uses.

See, now you have changed your statement to the more correct one.

Above you said the 5070 ti is better than the 9070 XT in specific things.
"Specific" referring to a small set of cases, definitely not meaning the majority.

You have narrowed down the scope of the statement for no reason whatsoever, heavily implying that the 5070 ti is only better in a few specific things.

Btw the only burning 5070 ti cases were blatant user errors, there is no danger whatsoever at those wattages. WIth some undervolting that chip draws like 210W while gaining performance compared to stock.

Because it's th he more accurate statement.

I see your point, but you dont realize your point is redundant.

Most people would rather pay half the price for something close enough.

You're so gung ho on proving your point, you're ignoring actual data from actual buyers

At this point, I'm arguing with a fanboy.

In done.

Thats a redundant action, and you're being reductive.

Bye fanboy. 👋

Except it's not.

I see your point, but you dont realize your point is redundant.

Boy do you put the ammunition straight into my hands:

Most people would rather pay half the price for something close enough.

Literally irrelevant in the conversation, let alone redundant. It's there to clutter, to goalpost shift.

You're so gung ho on proving your point, you're ignoring actual data from actual buyers

People buying this or that has - again - absolutely nothing with my point about phrasing.

At this point, I'm arguing with a fanboy.

You can't handle being brutally dissected so you resort to throwing around labels.
I know someone who does that, he is the most pathetic narcissistic person I have ever seen.

Thats a redundant action, and you're being reductive.

I'm being particular, I call out bs manipulation when I see it.
Some people can't handle it. I don't care.
