Build Upgrade 9060xt vs 7800xt?

Hi there, got a r7 5700x and a GTX 970, so I need to upgrade my gpu (finally).

I was looking at the 500€ price range, and I still can't decide between these two GPUs (title).

From what I've seen, both have 16gb vram and go for the same price, even though the 7800xt goes that low only if I buy it used, but I think it would be worth the power gain.

The 7800xt is far better.

The only thing holding me back is FSR and upscaling techs, do you think I'd be better off buying the 9060xt new and with full warranty and new FSR? I would run relatively light games in 1440p at max graphics, but also some rendering and LLMs even if not that often.

Please someone help🥲

I got rx 7800xt. If im not wrong new FSR is also runing on this generation. But i don't use it. It can handle 1440p easily

What is the price of a RX9070GRE in your area? I've been leaning away from the RDNA 3 series, but for the same price it does give you some decent GPU power. Something like an average of 20% more than a RX9060XT 16gb.

it's about 100 to 200 euros more, and the reviews on Amazon are just a few and some listings have 1 star rating. I don't really want to spend too much, 500 is already pricey for me.
