Live benchmark data
Not enough verified runs yet for a fair pool verdict — averages appear once each side has at least five.
Verdict — RTX 5060 Ti
Buy the 16 GB SKU or don't buy this card. NVIDIA splitting SKUs by VRAM at the same tier is user-hostile — the 8 GB version can't run modern games at the settings the 16 GB one manages.
Verdict — RX 9070 XT
The best AMD card since the 6800 XT. Raster performance rivals the 5070 Ti; RT is closer than ever but still a step behind. FSR 4 finally competitive with DLSS at Quality settings.
