more amazon GPU fraud starting up the past month, go figure as cards get more and more expensive, it becomes worth a criminals time to mug people virtually.
Yeah noob question, so to do a new build, buying this would force me to AM5 meaning I have to get super expensive RAM correct?
Right now still on AM4 with a 2070 Super

If you are doing a current technology build then DDR5 RAM is probably what you will want and it is stupid expensive now. DIY build is likely going to be more expensive than a prebuilt but you it will depend on a combo deal you find for mobo/cpu/ram.
I bought a prebuilt skytech (was partial deal from here and after viewing it cap1shop sent an offer for CB that made the deal hard to pass up. My debate is whether I try to offload the 5070 that came with my PC and throw my 3090 in it or if I just keep the 5070 and offload the 3090. I do mostly game and work from the PC but I do some 3D modeling for 3D printing and the 12GB vram isn't much upgrade from my 3060ti in the computer I use (can't put 3090 in it because its a dell prebuilt from 2020).

You could simply upgrade the video card and wait on the full system overhaul. Anything 5000 series on AM4 shouldn't bottleneck a 5070 too much (if at all).

This 5070 deal ain't bad at all, especially considering it's Amazon and brand new.
12 GB is fine. 16 will be better 5 years from now but this should do the job till then.
