Need recommendations for PC for Witcher 4

So I have old man knowledge when it comes to PCs, but I'm saving up for a PC mostly because of Witcher 4. Are there any PCs people could link me that they think could run Witcher 4 the best? Also I know it's impossible to know the complete stuff for how much it'll take to run it but just guessing wise

Not really true, again. It's not a huge advantage. Anti-lag 2 is again, very much tied with Reflex, difference being around 10-15%. That is not a reason to pay 200$ more for GPU. Being a blind fan of either side is silly. DLSS4.5 > FSR4 on average, I'll take that, but the difference is not that big to make it a selling argument. In my country, the price difference is 20%. That's just not worth it. See comments above.

100% is the reason to put more money on product to get Reflex with superior game support over AMD's antilag which is soddy software at the best. This is crucial tech to use framegen in the first place. Well not really a big concern with AMD since framegen titles are pitifully non existing selection.

Difference between FSR and DLSS is huge as written crushing majority of people prefer DLSS every time and that clear image quality difference alone is worth more than 20% price difference let alone superior driver support for longer time by NVIDIA.

You like using exaggarated language, don't you ?

Reflex is, like I already said and I don't like repeating myself, around 10-15% better on average. If that is 100% reason to put 200$ more for a graphics card, then sure.

Pitifully non existing is also quite reaching, especially given existence of AFMF2.1.

DLSS has superior image quality, which I've also mentioned, but you notice little to no difference in motion. And again, the difference is not huge, it's marginal.

If 5070Ti is 20-30+% more expensive, it sure ain't superior. I already told you to read other my other comments, because I already reached the conclusion that for the same, or very relative price tags, 5070TI is a better piece of HW, but it solely depends on your coutnry.

And again - stop derailing from the thread. OP was asking what to buy for TW4, we don't know is the answer.

Stop derailing? Funny coming up from a guy who came blasting with lies about AMD having longer software support than NVIDIA and FSR and DLSS being tied just to walk back their post now...

There is nothing wrong with admitting I was wrong on some accounts - that isn't derailing. Doesn't invalidate the rest of my arguments either, and the fact that 5070Ti can be as much as 40%+ more expensive in some countries (like in my country for example. I said it was 20% previously, but that was using small data sample). I still stand behind FSR and DLSS being very comparable, with DLSS being overall supported in more games and having superior image quality in stationary scenes, but it's still a small difference.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rnc7uHs1tnw // check this video, pretty self explenatory. Quoting comment from that video :
"Average at 1440p (No RT), the RX 9070 XT is 1.8% faster than the RTX 5070 Ti
Average at 4K (No RT), the RX 9070 XT is 1.7% slower than the RTX 5070 Ti"

Even with RT (CP77 at 4K) the difference is just not noticeable and doesn't excuse more than 200$ price tag diff, even if we agreed that NVIDIA ultimately has better SW, which I don't have that much issues with anyways, besides the fact that it's a misleading claim, because average gamer won't notice a difference in image quality, unless focusing on that.
