Verdict
At $645.00, the RTX 3070 costs about 19% less than the $799.00 RX 6700 XT. That $154.00 saving is real money, but not so wide that the pricier card is out of reach.
The RX 6700 XT's 12 GB of VRAM is a 4 GB advantage over the RTX 3070. At 4K or in heavily modded games that extra buffer matters — and it provides headroom as future titles push VRAM requirements higher.
As an NVIDIA card, the RTX 3070 gives you access to DLSS 4 super-resolution and Frame Generation, which can meaningfully lift frame rates in supported titles. The RX 6700 XT counters with FSR 4, which is open-source and works across a wider range of games — including some that don't support DLSS. Which ecosystem matters more depends on the games in your library.
