Unlike that Gigabyte board you have listed, this board includes a 2.5G LAN. Larger and better quality SSD, case with better airflow, etc ...

9070xt is very value-performance wise good for the average gamer, assuming you don't do productivity tasks or is heavily dependent on ray-tracing.

5070 is horrible and 5070ti not good cuz simply overpriced.
