Not enough verified runs yet for a fair pool verdict — averages appear once each side has at least five.

Verdict — RTX 5070

Competent card that would have been great with 16 GB. As-is, expect to lower texture settings within 2–3 years to avoid stutter. Consider the 5070 Ti if budget allows.

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.
