hey,

im looking to build a new Streaming/Gaming/Video & Phot Editing Rig and looking into the 9070xt to pair with the 7800X3d

Will the 9070XT do well with streaming and being able to handle video editing and photo editing or should i just stick with team green and go with the 5070?

I mainly play CS and Apex Legends ie.. eSports Titles
 
So most of the benchmarks of the past showed Nvidia performing better at eSports titles (low resolution/low settings) If you are playing with competitive settings, Nvidia is the better choice, I think. Nvidia streaming and encoding is typically considered superior to AMD, though I am not 100% sure on that with the 9000 series cards.

However, if you run a higher resolution and settings the 9070XT will give you a better experience, it is the faster GPU. 5070 Ti would be more comparable to the 9070 XT and also have the same 16GB VRAM buffer, though faster GDDR7.
 
9070XT = 5070Ti in 99% of cases but the green card is on average $150 more expensive. And if you compare the same brand and tier (i.e Gigabyte Aorus) that difference can go up to $300
