    9070 xt costs more at this current moment in the US as a 5070 but just barely and the 9070 xt is lower on stock

    neck and neck on performance

    and in terms of costs you forgot to add in new motherboard costs because these are pcie 5.0

    lot more than just the final cost at checkout

      To be fair, I believe running on PCIE 4.0 doesn’t really impact performance (it’s like 1-2 percentage point, which is IMO not significant).

        same as a pcie 4.0 does not run well on 3.0

        again more than just performance

        both amd and nvidia are now on the same price with low stock
