Going by the review I just posted (computerbase) the 9070xt is kinda depressing, 3% ahead of the 4070ti S at 1440p and 1% behind in RT. Progress in 2025, that's it I guess.

For sure this generation is all kinds of bad but if someone needs/wants more performance it is what it is.

Everyone would have been better off with a 4070ti super a year ago and enjoying it for a whole year but the reality is people waited for somthing better and this was the thank you they got for their patience....

I mean the 5080 is hard to get for less than 4090 money it's just all around sucks.

5070ti super is 4080 super money ish.

And the 5070 just plain sucks at 700 usd.

Waiting usually pays off not this time.

Go for a 5070 Ti.
No. Just... No. It's a 9070 XT but more expensive.

So my monitor is LG 38WN95C. Its 38" Ultrawide with this weird resolution. It's not that im lazy i already watched lots of benchmarks (especially for games that interest me) but beign this weird resolution i am not sure how should i approach that. Now i was told its closer to 4k than to 1440p and i should just check 4k benchmarks and add about 10-15% more fps to the result, that might be the way to go.
That would be the way to go. :)

Im still building rest of my system but it will be something like this:

x870 MSI tomahawk
9800X3D CPU
2x 32gb CL30 6000 ram
LG 38WN95C monitor

Rest of specs does not matter i believe.
Yeah, those specs are great.

And wow i did not expect so many replies, so just to throw some more light onto the matter, i would like 120fps in older games, but newer 60-90 range would be enough. Im just scared that games like Silent Hill 2 or Alan Wake 2, or even Wukong won't even run at 60 fps without FSR4 or upscaling. I do not care about PT and if i do, that will be in future 2-3 years and i might change GPU then if market gets better.
I'm just about to install Windows (I'm struggling with Epic games on Linux). Once I do, I'll let you know about Alan Wake 2 at 3440x1440.

I also would like to run Kingdom Come Delivarance in in about 90 fps and enjoy the game on ultra. I heard it will have FSR4 support so that might be worth something.
KCD 1 is fine, but KCD 2 might be a hard stretch. At 3440x1440, Experimental settings, I'm getting about 50 FPS without FSR. With FSR Performance, I get about 80. Your best bet is decreasing your settings to High, which results in literally zero perceptible image quality difference, but doubles your FPS.

Again, I'm on Linux, mind you, and I suspect you'd get about +10-15% performance on Windows.
