Advice on which GPU?

Can't decide which card I'd be best going for (CPU: i5 12400f):
Gigabyte RTX 3060Ti
ASUS RTX 3070
Sapphire Pulse RX 6700 XT
MSI Radeon RX 6750 XT

All about the same price give or take a fist full of dollars.
 
Yea I was wondering if the extra VRAM would make the AMD cards better in the future. Going to have this in a small (ITX) case so power/heat might make 6700 better over the 6750. Will be used mostly for gaming and watching movies 1080p. Not bothered about RT and not sure about DLSS.

The 4060 is a card pretty much nobody likes, but if it is going in a tiny system and being used @ 1080p, it might be the card for you, because of the low power consumption (equivalent to a RX 6600).

You could undervolt/underclock the 6700 if you wanted though.

In Hogwarts, HUB found that it had texture issues with the 3070 (9:16):
 
I've seen some powerful builds using the 4080 in the case I'm using but my CPU will probably bottle neck it if I get carried away (and also at 1080p is it worth stepping the card up). But... I would like to squeeze as much out of GPU as I can get away with.

I would definitely not buy a 4080 for 1080p. 7800 XT or 4070 are the highest I'd go.
