Considering upgrading from my old GTX 1080 on my workstation, constantly running out of VRAM with a lot of tabs/apps open (Photoshop, etc) and having more power sure wouldn't hurt.
if i am looking at spending 370 on a mid to high tier card at this moment, i would just get 7700xt for 400.

here is something to consider:
1. driver support. manufacture won't care about the older products as much when new ones released. so expect better drivers optimizations that easily erase that 2% gain. things like HYPR-RX is only available to 7000 series.
2. Video encoding support.
and yes, i would consider those feature easily worth 8% premium,

It is a great card though. I daily drove it for about 6 months and then put it into my kids PC when I built him one for Christmas and bought a new one for my other son for his PC. My personal opinion it's the best bang for the buck for 1440p high frame rate. That or jumping to a 7800xt if you want the new features and hope there is a jump with FSR 3.1 for 7 series cards.

The wait continues...
