Green or red? Mid-range gpu decisions (lemmy.world)

Looking to upgrade my trusty 1070Ti. I use my pc for RPGs (Borderlands, Hogwarts Legacy) , VR fps (Alyx, Arizona Sunshine) and VR simracing (F1 23).

Deciding between ASUS Dual 4070 (@ €600) or ASUS TUF 7800XT.

Benchmarks don't really tell the whole story because they rarely include DLSS3, but the games I play don't really support that anyway. TUF is a better cooler, but bulkier.

I can also just not buy anything and wait for the 4070 Super to come along.

Thoughts?

I'm an AMD fan, but don't think the 7800 is in a good price:performance ratio position. A 4070 I think is going to be the better option, especially considering Nvidia's frame generation tech hits a bit harder.

I'd wait for the super though. If you get that, it will last you easily as long as your 1070ti has. Unfortunately I think the price will be more than €600

I have already bought a 4070 at 600 euros. It doesn't disappoint yet.
