Starting to think that nvidia 6 series and AMD RDNA5 or whatever is at least a year away and running a 3080. Worth getting a 9070XT or 5070Ti for 4K? Yes I know I should by a 5090 but that's not going to happen so the option is 9070XT or 5070Ti is the DLSS 4 worth the 20% premium?

Doubt youll see 6 series nVidia cards until 2027 at the earliest.
Ideally youll want the 16GB 9070XT variant for 4k with the AMD option. As for whether that or a 5 series card is worth it to you...oinly you can tell.
What isnt the 3080 doing for you now that would prompt the upgrade? ~30% raw raster uplift from the 3080 to the 9070XT...does that tickle your fancy?

Yeah it's a difficult one but I don't think a 5080 for 45% is worth it at £950 when I can have 30% for £590. Irritatingly AMD isn't giving me the option of anything better and I wouldn't buy in to older 7900XTX at this point as I might as well get FSR 4

With AI companies sucking up all the GPUs and RAM they can get their hands on, don't expect any next gen GPUs for some time.

From what I have seen from the benchmarks the 20% premium is not worth it "to me". At the end of the day only you can determine if that extra money is well spent or not. I got the 9070XT Pure and I quite happy with it now that the coil whine is gone! I chose the Pure because it didnt have the dreaded 12 VHPWR connector and the Pure traded blows quite well with the Nitro+, Mercury, and Taichi.
