Suggesting a GPU for my colleague

[Master PC]

My colleague is building a machine mainly for gaming and machine learning. CPU an i7-14700K.  His initial plan was to get a 4070Super, but for the sake of ML, he decided that he get a better graphics instead, so he’s struggling whether to get a 4070Ti-Super or 4080Super. 
 

The 4070TS prices better at the sacrifice of a bit of performance, while the 4080S has better quality but with the whopping cost. 
 

which do you suggest him? Gaming wise he plays at 1440p. He has enough for the 4080S.

Depends on how complex ML models he is thinking about tackling. Depending on the task a 4080 or a 4090 might be more appropriate.

If the matter is only ML, then the 4080 Super is going to be at most 10~15% faster. If the price difference is within this range, then it's worth it. Otherwise the 4070 ti super is a better cost x benefit pick since it has the same amount of vram.
