The reference model that never released was supposed to be 600. AMD made a deal with partners to release their bottom end card for that same 600 at launch. This card has an enhanced cooler and rgb so will always cost more. Sad that mid tier cards like this are at this price. When i got into pc gaming in 2013ish a top tier card was like 300. Crazy...

5070 at MSRP is a better deal in my opinion.

The MSRP for the 9070 XT is supposed to be $600. But seems most set the price baseline at $700 now. AMD says $600 but everyone else said naaa, its $700, and people still buy them so $700 is the new baseline.
700$ isn't bad still for this card

I paid $400 for a 1070 I ordered online at launch about 10 years ago. There were no "shortages" so it was possible to buy online at MSRP on launch day. That 1070 beat the previous flagship 980 TI, so you legitimately got 980 TI performance for $400 - a proper generational upgrade. Fast forward to today, and it's backwards - flagship prices for low tier cards like the 5070, which is really only a 5060, and weaker than the previous 4070 Super. Nvidia trying hard to make everyone Fomo into 5090 because that's the only tier with a meaningful generational upgrade. I loathe Nvidia anti consumer tactics, so I purchased an AMD 7900 XT late last year. I wanted to love it. Unfortunately, I had to return the card for 2 reasons: 1. AMD FSR was miles behind Nvidia DLSS 2. For some reason the 7900 XT idled at 280 watts, almost it's full power despite tweaking every power saving /eco settings I could find. For comparison, my 4090 idled at about 24 watts. If AMD resolved these two issues I would buy this AMD card over the 5070 TI. Does anyone have experience with 5070 XT who can comment on FSR and idle power consumption?

If you're gonna spend $700 then spend the extra $150- 200 and just get the 5070 ti. The price difference just isn't worth it for those who are buying in this range. If it was 600 for a 9070 xt vs 900 for a 5070 ti then maybe...maybe...the 9070 xt would make sense on value.
5070ti is only 5% faster at 1440p and 4k..with some games swinging one way or the other..
It's overpriced

Nvidia premium is worth it if you gaming and don't want deal with driver issue, you also get ton of features, yeah it's worth it.
We have a premium with amd like fluid motion frames. Which nvidia has no alternative too.
Everything nvidia has, amd now has with on par quality

To me, $120 dollars difference and 100 watts more is not worth the 10%. But to each his own.
700-600=100. not 120. Are you really concerned about power consumption? In real life usage, it doesn't always consume 100w more/hr. Even if it did, it will be less than $30 difference for 2000hr runtime.

Opinions will vary on this. Different people have legitimately different preferences and will value some performance and feature advantages more than others.

In my opinion at this performance level (RX 9070/XT and RTX 5070/Ti) the largest advantage Nvidia has is game support for DLSS, rather than any quality advantage over FSR. To me this is a real advantage that I will pay a small premium for, but otherwise I feel that the Nvidia's software advantages are overstated. I don't place much if any value in ray tracing because it just isn't worth the framerate hit for me. I want 70 fps minimum. I do also strongly value the 16gb on the 9070 vs. 12gb on the 5070. It may not matter much now, but I will recycle my GPU to other household machines and end up using it for 5-10 years when it will almost definitely make a difference in usability.

Other people are OK with lower framerates and will get suitable performance with ray tracing using an Nvidia GPU but not a comparable AMD one. Their perception of value is different from mine but still legitimate.

Fsr3.1 is already on par with dlss, if not surpassed it. It runs on every card, including consoles..and it's baked into new games already.
If you need dlss or fsr you're just inadvertently stating that your card is too slow anyway

I love AMD hardware but I think that any reasonable person would agree that this statement is objectively false. And the number of games that support FSR is lower than DLSS.
