9800x3d/5080 vs 7800x3d/5070ti worth an extra $400?

1 month ago 35

I'm currently planning my PC build. I'm having trouble deciding which build to go with. My ideal budget is $2000. The 5070ti build would be around $400 cheaper. I am planning to play RDR2/Cyberpunk/BF6 in 1440p. Any parts I should swap?
