If you want efficiency the 9070 non-XT is worth a look. It's only slightly cheaper on paper, but it's efficient and generally more compact which gives you more options and room to save on your build. And it actually has 16GB Vram.

If you can get a 9070 at MSRP it's really not a bad deal in the current market. But you can always just wait for the market to hopefully re-adjust and expand your options.

Yeah, however, the power advantage of the XT for such a small price gain is really worth it over the base model. Yeah it chews through more power but the preformance gains is all but worth it.

What is impressive about the 5070 is the low power consumption and still delivers a slightly more better experience over the 9070. 

But I'm leaning more on AMD so far with my upgrade than Nvidia based on they seem to actually be trying unlike the other, who are in cruise control.
