I played 5 games on an RTX 5070 vs RTX 5070 Ti gaming PC — is it worth paying extra

Both the RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti GPUs are being tested across five demanding PC games to evaluate their performance. The RTX 5070 is priced at £529, while the RTX 5070 Ti is priced at £729.

In Forza Horizon 5, both GPUs showed similar 1% low performance. In Call of Duty Black Ops 6, the RTX 5070 showed limitations compared to the RTX 5070 Ti.

‘GTA 5’: How To Keep Your Progress And Transfer Your Save To The Enhanced Edition

Players of Grand Theft Auto 5 on PC can now access the GTA 5 Enhanced update, which includes graphical enhancements such as ray-traced reflections, improved load times for SSD users, ambient occlusion, global illumination, enhanced framerate scalability, and support for Nvidia DLSS and AMD FSR. The save transfer process allows players to transfer saves only between the Legacy PC version and the Enhanced version, requiring a Rockstar Social Club account. Accounts with bans or suspensions, or those with insufficient progress on the Legacy version, are ineligible for transfers. Players can upload their single-player save by launching the Legacy version, pausing the game, and selecting "Upload Save Game." To download the save in the Enhanced version, players must launch the Enhanced game, navigate to the Game tab, and select "Download Save Game." Transferring online progress is simpler; players just need to start GTA: Online in the Enhanced version and select their character to migrate progress. The Enhanced version is treated as a separate game, preventing players from joining friends who have not upgraded.
