    I have simply kept buying nVidia as I understand what the model numbers mean, I have no idea of what AMDs GPUs model numbers mean…

    I have a 3070 at home right now, what would be an upgrade from AMD?

      Seems to be roughly on par with the RX 6800, according to user benchmarks.com, so everything after should be an improvement. The -XT models are generally stronger. Also, in an attempt to adapt their naming schema to nvidia’s amd’s 7900 series was succeeded by the 90xx series.
      Generally speaking nvidia seems to have the edge in ray-tracing, while amd offers faster rasterisation.
