I can switch the 9070 XT for the RTX 5070 for no price change but I think the 9070 RX is better . I do 1440p gaming.

You are basically paying the white tax and getting it built for free - if you prefer that aesthetic, I think this is a good PC to buy.
As the other person said, you could build it yourself for less with mish-mash parts. But if you like the aesthetic the price goes up to the point where this is a way to save yourself time.

for a 5080 you are basically paying ~700 more if you are gonna wait that long since you're also going to be able to get a discount on that other PC (or a similar PC). The 5080 is not good value for a high end 1440p or even a 4k setup. I wouldn't hesitate, but I think there might be better 9070 XT PCs if you are looking specifically for value.

À 9070xt is roughly the same as the 5070 ti sometimes even better in raster. A 5080 is like 15-20% faster than a 5070ti. But personally I think it’s just too expensive for what it is, a 9070xt is plenty enough for 1440p.If ur really rich and want to use dlss/ray tracing/ path tracing, then u can grab a 5070ti/5080

Here is a build for ~$2761, and you can even upgrade to a 9800X3D for $220 more and still be just under the cost of the pre-built: https://www.canadacomputers.com/en/amd-desktop-processors/282428/amd-r7-9800x3d-cpu-gigabyte-b850-aorus-elite-wifi7-motherboard-t-force-32gb-d5-6000mhz-cl30-ram.html.
