which GPU should i get?

Heyo, im split between two GPU's

the 7900 XTX

and the 9070 XT.

both gpus are a BIG upgrade above the current setup i got.

(current setup;

Motherboard: (H610?)

CPU: I5 10500F

(CPU cooler: stock)

GPU; 1650 GTX

PSU: 650W bronze

RAM: Kingston ddr4 16gb (8x2 sticks)

Storage:

128 GB sata SSD

2 TB HDD

and a TN panel 144hz monitor

the future setup will be

CPU: Ryzen 7 9800X3D

GPU (The main subject): (ASUS TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 XT) or (7900 XTX)

Motherboard: Gigabyte X870 Eagle WIFI7

RAM: 64GB DDR5 6000MHz

Primary Storage: Two 2TB Gen 5 SSDs

Secondary Storage: 4TB HDD

CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D15 c

Power Supply: Corsair RM1200e (Platinum efficiency)

Case: Lian Li LANCOOL 217

Peripherals & Protection

Monitor: Samsung Odyssey G6 (G60SF) 500Hz

Current Protection: Solid UPS (Stable Current)

Safety: Surge Protector

now really im considering the XTX because of the peace of the mind the VRAM gives.

but ive also seen how the 9070 XT has been performing lately, more and more its been ramping up to rival the 5080.

i really care about raw performance since i mostly play older titles + i am an Esports player in for honor

so what do i get?

the ludicrous 24GB model thats priced around pretty much 1K+ USD?

or the newer more refreshed 16GB model that got more features and keeps getting more efficient?

(and also like your opinions on the build too.)

asking for opinions NOT. changes.

and for those who really care. i have care tools for cleaning the setup.

the setup ISNT solely gaming focused.

and if it is. its more CPU and memory intensive than graphical. (esports, physics games like gmod, beamng,)

plus i work with AI

and i like hoarding game MODS

(and for those wondering. im not looking for alternatives. the parts ive mentioned are the best value to performance available. any level above the things i mentioned are stupidly overpriced. (9070 being 600 USD more than the regular 5070. ) (NOT EVEN THE 9070 XT JUST THE REGULAR. ) )
