Hello everyone, I haven’t got a GPU yet, but I managed to save £750 already. I’m happy to add a bit more if possible, aiming for around £800. I’m considering a GPU purchase and don’t know which one to choose—I’ve always used an NVIDIA model before. I had the RX 4070 Ti, but it ended up going to my brother.

Below are the specs I’m planning to build:
My monitor is an AOC 3400 x 1440 ultra-wide with a 144Hz refresh rate.
I found an XFX AMD QuickSilver 9070XT pre-order for £676 on eBayX; not sure about the brand, but I’d like some advice or just save money and go with the RX 7800 XT.
I’m uncertain about AMD’s performance but have read some good reviews, so I might join Red Team for a change.

My main games will be Star Citizen (though I know it’s not great), Battlefield 2042, WoW, Cyberpunk, and a few others.
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7700X
Cooler: MSI MAG CORELIQUID A15
Motherboard: MSI MAG B650 TOMAHAWK WIFI ATX AM5
Memory: Kingston FURY Beast 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30
Storage: Samsung 970 Evo Plus 2 TB
Case: HYTE Y60 ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: MSI MAG A850GL PCIE5 850 W, 80+ Gold Certified, Fully Modular

9070XT or a 4070 super is more likely to receive a decent price for a 9070XT qt.

9070 XT stands out as superior to any RTX 4070 version in raw raster speed. There are several choices available depending on location, availability, and budget.

I was a bit concerned, so I think I should check for two slots of the RX 9070 XT.
