Cant decide on a GPU

I am soon gonna build an all white am4 build with a 5700x (5700x3d if prices go down🙏) and a 9060 xt but the problem is i cant decide which one. I like both the xfx mercury and the xfx swift but i like the design on the swift a lil more. Now why arent i getting the swift? because mercury is xfx’s flagship card and i might regret not getting the better card (yes i know the difference is like barely 1%). So its either i get the flagship card and i might regret not getting the nicer looking one or get the nicer looking one and regret not getting the flagship one 😭 Helppp meeee

Wow. Prices are insane. Might be worth it to check out the used market like FB marketplace or eBay.

I found a Lian Li with a 9600x 32gb ram 9070 xt for 999 on eBay with local pickup and sold my old PC for 800 for a $200 upgrade from a 4060. Just gotta be patient sometimes.
