If you have the money for it and want the performance bump and there is no cheaper but more powerful option, yes.

If you don't have the money, don't need the performance, or there is some other better option, no.

The 9070 XT is about 30% faster than 4070 Super. Doesn't seem worth the cost or hassle to me.

Yeah not sure we're at the point of buying another 2-3 years without shelling out twice as much for the 5080. I would hold for now.

I went from 4070 ti to 9070 xt and it was worth it imo.

Paid 619€ for the 9070 xt and sold the 4070 ti for 550€ (paid 600€ 2nd hand) it was in october '25 so gpu prices were kinda low compared to nowadays.

I also went from 5800x3d to 7800x3d recently but tbh your 7500x3d is perfectly fine.

Don't bother, use dlss performance preset l at 1440p and it will last till the end of the world with some artifacts

720p internal resolution? Gross

I wouldn’t upgrade yet if I was on a 40 series card. The only reason I did was because I was on a 30 series card and my entire PC got fucked up at my old apartment. My best friend is still getting good performance at 1440p with a regular 4070

So everyone opinion in general is not worth the upgrade ? Speaking about money it wouldn't be much of a problem if i sell the super

Can you go more in details brother,why it was worth for you

The 9070 xt performs much better in games and has more vram. I also get at least 120 fps in any game at max settings, even with RT. Also I didn't really pay too much for the upgrade, that's why it was worth it for me.

You'd be surprised, DLSS 4.5 is ridiculous

Depends on how much you can get for the 4070 super.
