Im building my wife a new pc and believe that right now the 4070ti super is the best choice, in bang for your buck overall. Lets be honest right now all cards are overpriced, however ive seen the 4070ti super close to its msrp launch price. Not seen any other card anywhere near msrp. People thinking 5070 is newer so its better.... think on this... the rtx5070 wont get better, not really, and the numbers wont change aka memory, specs etc. the only reason to buy is if you MUST have dlss4. The 5070 launch was a con, its nowhere close to an rtx4090, in fact in most scenarios its beaten by the rtx4070ti super. yes its more efficient but a good case chassis to me makes that irrelevant. Just my opinion
