Wuthering Waves draws a clear line between two popular cards once you lock the resolution to 1440p.
Quick Answer
The flat answer for Wuthering Waves at 1440p: take the RTX 5070 Ti. It posts near 140 fps where the other lands around 134 fps, and at R17,500 upward it stays inside warranty-backed local stock.
Build balance and SA pricing
A 1440p card with a mismatched CPU wastes Rands, so pair it with a current 6 to 8 core chip and 32GB of RAM for Wuthering Waves. Landed pricing sits near R21,000 for the faster option and R17,500 for the value pick, before you add a 650W to 750W PSU. Check case clearance because both cards run long and need 2.5 to 3 slots.
Which one to buy for Wuthering Waves
If you keep this PC for three years and want the cleaner 1440p experience in Wuthering Waves, lean to the RTX 5070 Ti. If the rival lands meaningfully cheaper in local stock and your monitor caps at 134 fps anyway, the savings are real. Match the card to the panel you own today, not the one you might buy later. Confirm local stock and warranty before you commit, since support matters on parts you rely on daily. Prices shift with the Rand and availability, so verify the figure at checkout rather than budgeting on an old quote.
