Our recommendation
The RTX 5080 launched higher and has since drifted down toward the RX 9070 XT's price as street pricing settled. The RX 9070 XT launched cheaper but has drifted upward with demand. At current tracked prices the gap between them is narrower than their launch MSRPs suggest — worth checking current price before assuming either has a clear price advantage.
