I do not see the 50er series being worth the price. It depends on your budget. If you can afford it, go for Nvidia. If you have it tight, go AMD.

if u wana go path tracing(in other games) then 5080 at the very least

otherwise rx9070xt is your best bet

If gamers keep upgrading their hardware to address poorly optimised games, gamers will continue to get overpriced GPUs and poorly optimised games.

If you want 4K 30fps then the RX6900XT should be capabile enough with adjusted settings.
If you want 4K 60fps (no framegen) then maybe the new 9070XT (if you get one for MSRP). Otherwise wait out for a new genration next year.

except gamers dont matter to nvidia, amd is there but if u take a look at hardware survey everyone and their mom has an nvidia card.

the prices are high not due to demand from gamers but because demand from ai is stupidly high

It's really all down to what budget you're ready to put up for it.

Welcome to basic economics. Let me tell you all about supply and demand...

[Resalius...]

Take care if you want to play in 4k with High settings...
i got a 4090 and a few games (not only new games) are fast @ 18-20GB VRAM in 4k Max
5070 is far away from 20 GB VRAM

i would wait for TI / Super models with MIN 16-20GB VRAM (24 is better)
Or buy a AMD GPU with 20-24GB VRAM
Or (if you can get one for a good price) get a 4090. 4090 is still a very good GPU.
I got my 4090 Suprim X new for 1749,99€ - a few % = between 1500-1600€

If thats too much..
Do you need 4k? 1440P is still good and 16GB are okay for 1440P
If you want 4k and dont mind Max settings a 16GB VRAM GPU is still okay but you have to change some settings (not Max)

You aint getting 4k 60fps .
The game is rendered in 1080p and upscaled 4 times with frame gen.
Your better off playing native 1080p 60fps framr gen.

9070 is perfectly good if you can find it for MSRP.
9070xt is better but finding those at msrp is harder.

4k? not in MH Wilds, you'll at best get 1440p upscaled.
Other games/ 9070x / 5080 would be best for 4k gaming

[Turbo Enjoyer]

go for 4090 (if you can find one locally) or 5080 minimum if you want 4k gaming for this game. You could also wait for a 5080ti if you can. Scumbag Nvidia would probably give the 5080ti more vram

[Illumina]

your CPU better be ready too.

This game is not optimized at all, it runs worse than the dev build of GTA 6 and looks like a game from 2010 in 4k. Using a 4090, 13700kf, 7800mt DDR5 on Atlas OS and even with dlss and framegen I get about 45 frames in forest areas, texture pop in is awful, turn around and everything looks like its stardew valley until high quality textures pop back in over the low res ones (which somehow take a while). Do no bother buying a new gpu, no gpu can fix this game out of running like crap and looking like crap. I guess kids that have never seen what a good looking and/or optimized game looks like will like this, along with the story for 5 year olds.

Unless you really care about RT I think you would be disappointed. Not only would you lose 4GB of VRAM, which would be very handy at 4k, you wouldn't gain much in terms of fps.

4070 series in general is the mid grade work horse that holds its own for the price.
I have had no issue with this game outside the GAME itself performing poorly due to bad optimization.

Textures just load poorly with the RE Engine from what I can tell, doesn't honestly matter what quality you set it to.
