5070 Ti or 5080 for 1440p, or hold off for now?

5070 Ti. Both have 16GB, so VRAM isn't the deciding factor like it is between the lower cards, and the 5080 is only something like 10-15% faster for a lot more money. At 1440p the Ti already runs almost everything high/ultra, and DLSS covers the heavy path traced games. Waiting only makes sense if you're not in a hurry and prices near you are clearly above MSRP. Otherwise there's always something next.
