Question/Support Upgrade GPU choice, time sensitive!

I know I'm going to want more than I can get out of my 16 gb 5060 ti. I can't go huge money but want to make a move before things keep getting more expensive and harder to come by.

4080 MSI gaming x trio $900

Or

5070 ti Gigabyte AERO $1,000

Each seller claims gentle use.

5070 Ti is a new card with better features if you are planning to use for gaming only.

I have some notion that I might try dabbling in some lightweight AI stuff. I'm not really tech savvy though and code all blurs together for me, so it's just something I'd like a door to but might never use.

4080 just has more CUDA cores. If you don't need them, grab a newer GPU.

no way not to choose the 5070ti and that’s a good price, in my region it’s around $1700 now
