GTX 4070 or RX 7900 XT for VR?

[Jimmichoochoo]

Hello fellas,

I have a Ryzen 5700X CPU with an RTX 3060.

Some cash fell into hand, and I want to upgrade to either the RX 7900 XT, or the GTX 4070.

Which would be better for VR Performance in VAM? The RTX 4070 is newer, cheaper, but according to userbenchmark.com it's also ~18% slower. VAM being an older engine, would I get any noticaeble better fps with the 7900 XT?

I know my CPU may bottleneck a little, but I'd rather get a better card now, for future CPU upgrade.

Oh one more thing! There are so many different versions out there, is it better to go for the ones with more GB, or does that not matter too much?

Thanks everyone for any input!

I see the 7900XT is available with 20GB, but the 4070 seemingly only with 12GB? I guess for VR ram makes a difference? or not really?

Not sure if you know this but the 50xx series should be out as of yesterday, or at least partially i believe (5090 and 5080 first maybe? idk). Probably worth considering one of those.

Much too expensive for what I had in mind. Should be around €500-700 eur max

In my view, you should buy rtx4070, because vam2 is under development, I think the Frame insertion technology like DLSS3 will be used in vam2. Another side, there are some more interesting gameplay, such as artificial intelligence, may be added to this game,they usually use nividia GPU.
