Is the RTX 5070 or the RX 9070 XT a better buy in 2025?
Reviewer consensus
Across the reviewers we read, the RX 9070 XT generally wins on raw rasterization and ships with 16GB of VRAM, while the RTX 5070 leads on DLSS 4 / Multi Frame Generation and ray tracing but is held back by 12GB of VRAM. r/nvidia and r/buildapc consensus calls the 5070 a 'very good 1440p card' that represents a weak generational uplift; for pure performance per dollar at 1440p, the 9070 XT is the more commonly recommended pick.
