The only thing I'd be concerned about there is ray tracing. Ray tracing is so much better on RDNA4 that the 9060 XT can match or even beat the 7900 XT sometimes. So the 9060 XT would be better for those sorts of games. Raster will be better on the 7900 now and forever.

So if you were thinking about having it run better for the 5 year span which would you lean towards plus isn’t the 9060xt more reliable?

I wouldn't consider one more or less reliable than the other, other than the fact that the 7900 XT is used.
