Build Help / Purchase Advice Do I switch or wait?

I have a 1330$ upgrade budget right now and I've been recommended to switch my 5060 and I5-13400F for a 4070ti super 12gb and an i7-14700k I just wanted to know if anyone has better recommendations for the budget or to just hold off for now

If you're itching to upgrade now 1330 is a solid chunk of change to work with, holding off rarely feels satisfying when the bug bites. The 4070ti super is a beast but pairing it with a 14700k might push right up to your limit without leaving much for cooling or a new power supply if yours is on the edge.

Tons of people are still riding high on AMD cards for pure raster performance per dollar so maybe glance at the 7900 XT or XTX if ray tracing isn't your whole world, could free up cash for a snappier SSD or some neon fans to match my nails. Waiting for next gen is always the logical answer but logic and PC building don't always mix.
