I have a GTX 970, and I love it. Works great for what I need it for.

Can you help me decide between the 7800 XT and the 4070? I’ll be using it for gaming and game development in UE5. I’m a beginner with 3D games and modeling, and I’m unsure about which one to pick. The 16GB VRAM on the 7800 XT seems great for future-proofing. If I were to use ray tracing at a medium level while making games, would the 7800 XT be able to handle it? I'm just a bit confused about what to buy.

I have a question should I get a 7900xt or 4070 it super if I’m only planning to use blender. Also I heard a 12 core cpu is the most I will need it this true. First time building a pc and blender looks like fun.
