TL;DW:
[1440p Average] "So across 16 games tested, the 9070 XT saw on average a 9% improvement with the latest game and driver updates. In comparison the 5070 Ti saw just a 2½% improvement."

  • Steve Walton from Hardware Unboxed.

4K results shows the 5070 Ti and the 9070 XT performance matching neck and neck.

  1. On review day the 5070 Ti was 2% faster, but now the 9070 XT is 3% faster than the 5070 Ti.
  2. With the 9070 XT being $150 CAD or ~30% cheaper (in US and AU) than the 5070 Ti, the 9070 XT wins out in being the better value buy.

Wonder if this is similarly true on Linux platforms.

The Linux drivers were pretty buggy at launch, so probably. Every Mesa release this year has come with a ton of fixes and improvements.
