Decided to get a new pc and two of my friends recommended me some builds. Did I pick the right one?

My previous pc was a 3050 prebuilt. Pretty weak but I only play esports games like valorant, overwatch and vr chat. I asked two of my friends for recommendations on a new pc and we went back and forth on builds that both of them thought of. Here are the builds, and these are USD prices

Friend 1

$1,751 https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Nrqyqd (5070 + 9700X)

$1,941 https://pcpartpicker.com/list/dNYzFP (9060XT + 9800X3D)

Friend 2

$1,155 https://pcpartpicker.com/list/CyZK2k (9060XT + 7600X)

$1,432 https://pcpartpicker.com/list/L7nJmL (9060XT + 7600X3D)

$1,603 https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Hn9Qfp (9070 + 7600X3D)

$1,832 https://pcpartpicker.com/list/sRCVGk (9070XT + 7800X3D)

I trust friend 1 a bit more since he has a degree in computer science, and friend 2 brought up some points, but I didnt know if they were valid or not. So I ultimately decided to go with friend 1 9060XT build, but im starting to have some second thoughts since spending almost 2k on a pc isnt chump change.

These are some of the points that friend 2 brought up. Are they valid?

1. Recommending the 9800X3D simply for VR is overkill. The 7600X3D is going to do just fine.
2. If you are going to be using VR you're going to see better use from a better GPU such as the 9070 or 9070XT instead of the 9060XT.
3. The 5070 is more expensive then the 9070 and 9070XT while being noticeably weaker than both of them. The only reason to go with the 5070 is if u want Nvidia features, and I know for a fact that u dont care about them.
