What is the best value GPU in the $400 to $500 price range? AMD has a very strong 16GB VRAM GPU with the 7800 XT but the last generation RX 6800 and RX 6800 XT GPUs both offer strong performance and the same 16GB of VRAM for less money after price drops. Is the 7800 XT still the way to go? And how does FSR3 factor in to the equation? Let's find out!

Got myself a 6800XT some months ago when 7000 series wasn't a thing yet. Very pleased with the card !
I got my 6800xt in middle of gpu drought, for 900$ its still worth it and great!
Me too. Picked up a Sapphire Pulse 6800xt back in March I think and I'm quite pleased coming from a 1070 Strix. Was planning on a Sapphire Nitro+, but I waited too long for price drops and they ended up getting sold out. Was hoping to wait til the Pulse was under $500, but decided to get it for just over $500 so I didn't miss out on another one.
@@bonepileofficialThat GPU does not exist.
I just got a 7800xt but thrilled to see those beta AFMF drivers were extended to the 6000 series drivers. Just extends the life and usefulness of those cards.
@@ZackSNetwork typo.. 6800xt
I typically watch HUB GPU performance breakdowns, but I really enjoy, and appreciate your side by side comparisons. It's a very effective way of showing your data. I'm not shopping for hardware, but I like watching it anyway.
Those who are building mITX rigs, or those who are concerned about their electricity bills. The RX6800 is actually EXTREMELY efficient once you start to tune it in Radeon Software. I lowered my core voltage by 100mV to 950mV (I could go further but want stability), decreased my clocks to by 100MHz to 2050MHz, and increased the VRAM by 100MHz to 2100MHz. Performance is pretty much similar, but I went from gpu core power draw of 200W to 120-130W, a reduction of ~70W putting the card in the same ballpark as a 6600XT. The reason for this; Having tons of CUs at peak efficiency levels is way much power efficient than a fewer CUs at terrible efficiency levels (high clock speeds).
I use 450w bronze and my 1070ti with 180w still run. Downside is psu fan is running hard. People are overestimating how much wattage they need.
For the millionth time, rdna2 has incomplete power monitoring, your 6800 uses significantly more power than you think
@@max-lee its not overestimating, it's also how well and how long the psu will perform into the future. Most psu's are at max efficiency at around 30-50%, meaning they convert power from wall to psu with the least power loss in conversation between those usages. Especially for those in the eu spending, 15-20 more on a psu with more efficiency and maybe higher wattage is far worth because it will save money after 1-2 years of use compared to spending less on a less efficient or lower wattage psu.
@@niebuhr6197yeah it uses more pwr but not significantly more...expect 10-20% more power..but even with that its still impressive..
@@niebuhr6197I checked the power meter on my 6800 xt card and it measures correctly.
I bought it just because I was wondering if the power consumption falling after undervolting was real because of these words.
Id pay extra for the 7800xt just from power efficiency and I think the feature set will look stronger over time
rx 6800 consume 40% less power then 7800xt
@@Mr11ESSE111is also notably slower than the xts
@@Mr11ESSE111 but isn't the power draw reported on 6000 series only the die and not the entire board?
@@FLAXMS no its not now because you will see low power consumption on 6800xt too and higher moels while here as we see rx 6800 have good consumption and it was proved with measuring from wall

Why does Daniel got to be such a dawg man. Just built my first computer. Came across his channel, and it is great. Love just throwing this man on, knowing I'm about to get a great video.
Thank you Daniel, appreciate your videos!
This is exactly the info I needed to make my choice. Thanks for the upload!
I feel assured now i bought a 7800xt sapphire pure 3 fans for £530 in uk. Inhad £800 to spend so got a longcool 3 case the gpu snd also a phonteks x 850w psu. Time to move my old system in to the new build. Great video
Thank you for making these kind of videos and lengthy comparisons. You really helped to make up my mind in which one to buy. I could have bought best price for 6800 around 360~370£ but ended up going for the 7800 xt for 500£ as it's newer, it will mature better I hope
Love the videos, keep up the great work!
Awesome stuff as usual, Daniel!
Great review, I'm looking at a 7800XT right now myself. Gotta say I really hate how accepted upscaling and frame generations have become to gamers for artificial performance. Ultra benchmarks make no sense when being upscaled as if you're going to Ultra you want image quality and the quality degrades quite significantly with an upscale, just like DVD upscaling vs BluRay or 4K upscaled bluray vs. a 4K native etc. It's really become something GPU manufactures use to pump their numbers when really their big 1080p numbers are just 720p.
Agreed. It can be a great option to have when you need to turn some setting down, but this trend where marketing pretends it's free performance needs to stop. "Ultra" means no compromises, even the best upscaling is always a compromise.
The new Alan Wake 2 recommendations are particularly egregious, some of the presets they advertise are using DLSS/FSR on Performance mode.
Yes and it's only beginning. This is going to ruin the industry.
anyway I ordered a 6800 just now and suddenly, I cant wait lol.
I too wanted thew 7800xt but they've pulled the wool over our eyes with that model shrinkflation. Im not paying that kind of money for what is actually a 7700.
Well DLSS looks as good as native so FSR being just slightly worse while offering double the VRAM seems ok. Talking about 4k ultra quality, I wouldn't use FSR any other way. The big question is whether optimized settings at native 4k looks better than ultra settings with FSR, haven't seen any videos on that and needed to decite between nvidea and amd, went for amd hoping fsr looks good enough
Ty for video i m struggling with the purchase right now 😅
Thanks for these videos ! For content creation 7800 pulls ahead much more and has AV1 which is something I value a lot . That being said considering the fact 6800xt releases is 2020 I would have hoped even bigger gap in gaming .. well it’s still good deal and will most likely pickup one for gaming / content creation
Great video...I love your comparisons over most others. I am looking at the 7800xt myself and was curious to performance vs dollars spent.
You helped me so much for my choice , thx man
for me RX 7800XT was 160$ more than RX 6800, so i went for the later :)
AV1 encoder matters for wireless VR too - if someone has a Quest 3, then streaming via AV1 improves the quality quite a bit. The 7800XT seems like a great card for a VR rig, because besides the AV1, it scales quite well with higher resolutions, and has plenty of VRAM.
Does the AV1 encoder on RDNA3 even support the resolution of the Quest 3? I know AMD f'd up badly on the implementation of the AV1 encoder, it can't even encode 1080p properly (it has to add 2 rows of black to the bottom making it 1082p), odd resolutions like the ones used on VR headsets might be an even bigger issue.
@@Alvin853 I don't know, I'm not an expert on this subject. All I know is that I tried it via Virtual Desktop set to AV1, with default resolution in Steam VR, and Half Life Alyx looked really crisp.
@@Alvin853yes it supports the full resolution and refresh rate, virtual desktop already had AV1 support on AMD 7000
This is why I'm getting a 7800xt (well after I get a quest 3)
@@flamingscar5263 i thought RDNA 3 was horrible for VR?
Just built my first pc purchasing the 6800 for $370 durring the Black Friday sales absolutely incredible that we can get our hands on great cards for these prices
i remember reading something about my 6800xt being able to overclock to around the same performance, that being said I bought mine slightly before this one was within range.
Buy 6800, open Amd adrenaline software, go to performance>tuning, set max core frequency to 2480mhz and memory frequency to 2112mhz also power limit max. Dang now you get 6800xt like performance also pretty stable while using 200W only. 100$ saved😄
Stonks
You can oc/uv a 7800 xt and get close to 4070 ti level of performance
@@Kenyin Aaaaaaand 16 GB of VRAM
@@Kenyin does that affect the life expectancy of the card?
Still weaker than 6800xt, tho it is true that an important amount of performance can be covered by that. Tho do consider that many 6800 aren't capable of that kind of OC, mine can barely do about 2310 before instability starts showing
This just the most helpful channel for PC gaming. Thanks Daniel!
I'd suggest testing with some OCs for each card to see how well they OC using adrenaline. Maybe a modest bump to power/frequency/memory frequency to see how that goes.
silicon lottery though
but for the majority it will run around the same it doesnt mean everyones performance is randomized @@BlackJesus8463
Thank you for including the standard 6800. Almost nobody includes this card in their benchmarks, which sucks if you have it and want to compare new stuff.
Today I found a new RX 7800XT for 503€ and immediately ordered it.
Prices here are wildly fluctuating.
Last week you could get most models of the 7800XT for a maximum of 550€... today 550€ seems to be the norm and prices go up to over 600€.
It's madness...
Going to build my FIRST pc in the next month and these two GPUs are what I am currently thinking of using, thanks Owen!!!
probably going to get a used 6800 around black friday...the second hand market and miners trying to cash in before the current new prices force used inventory to deprciate is making the new/used savings over +30% as a pricing floor is restructuring.
I keep checking Jawa but, IMO the used prices aren't sweet enough for the gamble, especially on the 6800 which you now have the choice of $400 used vs. $400 new....3060ti is falling under $250 there, which you know....if it had more frickin' VRAM....still a great card for last Gen stuff.
bought a used 6800 nonXT for 350€ 3 months ago when it was still 450-470€ new.
on ebay there was almost no discount for used. at least here in berlin, checking local used markets gets u the best prices as a buyer. also picking it up in person, most people allow you to test it at pick up. either in their own rig, or if you bring your own PC, plug it in and test it.
bought tons of hardware this way and the meet up and testing of hardware was always nice and interesting
@@BearfootBob used 6800 on ebay in Australia are under $450 a new and the amazon 6800 in AU and 7700xt are $750. Some used 6800 on ebay are coming with claimed 1 year waranties and with the 30 day return policy the $300 saving over new is pretty apealing if you ask me.
Great video. I was curious about how my Sapphire RX6800 Pulse compared to the Sapphire RX7800XT Pulse. It's essentially a wash if you're looking at frames per dollar based on performance. The tipping point to not upgrade came down to my PSU. My current PSU is 650 watts and supports the RX6800, The recommended PSU for the RX7800XT is 700 watts. So I would have to factor in the extra cost of a PSU upgrade. Seeing how 700 watts is the minimum, I might want to build-in some headroom for future expansions.
I'd take a 6800 if they had a refresh of the boards. They're enormous comparatively. Tight squeeze in a mATX case.
I like the way you reason. Very logical approach.
I have put my rx6800xt to the following settings:
Max frequency 2150
Voltage 1090mV
And i have not noticed a big difference in performance but the power went from 250w to 170w, the fan speed halfed, and the coil whine is gone. Can recommend
If you also take into account the future resale value and which of the cards will retain more of that value then the entire equation changes. Just because it's more expensive now doesn't mean much when you can retain more value with a better GPU. Your cost will actually be less per month with a more valuable card than if you were to buy a less valuable card. So yes you're saving money right now by buying the cheaper card but you are going to spend more overtime.
I’m new to gaming pc builds but it seems like you can’t go wrong with any one of these cards. But I’m going for the 7800xt 😅
Looks like 7800 XT draw more watts than the older sibling... in som games. Great test mate, tnx!
Another plus with all three of these cards is how well they overclock. You can undervolt and overclock all of them for great performance gains. They all three gain between 10-14 percent performance while running cooler and using less power. I have a 6800 currently and with it's current settings I get performance around what most benchmarks get for a 6800xt while running around 60c and using 160-180w of power (spikes up to 193w max). Another plus for the 6800 is used prices. You can regularly find them for around $330 used.
this is better option, with the lowest power but almost simmilar perfromance, recently I got 2nd hand RX 6800 asus tuf at $300
@@sensenpratamalocal or?
@@sensenpratama mw too just got 6800 sapphire nitro oc for $290. undervolted, full ultra setting in AC Mirage average 50c 150w
This lie really has to stop ots not true i had a 6700xt 6800xt and now a 7800xt all different models and not a single one holds an undervolt they all crash widely even with a 100mhz on the core and memory clock. My 7800xt is running g around 275w you aren't cutting 100w of power and gaining performance you have to be an idiot to believe that.
where i live the rx 6800 is $392 with 15% value added tax VAT and without it is $340. this is simply ridiculously good value and performance.
Where do you get 15% VAT? All the Eu countries I look at are 23%.
@@BlackJesus8463 It's only 19% in Germany...

Do you get coil whine? I know its not a big deal just asking.

@@Trisstan20 OOF! Not worth the price premium at the moment. As for the XFX, that's considered the best RX 6800 XT card. I think it'll keep you happy. 😊
The comparison needs to be between the 6800 and the 7800xt because of the same amount of stream processors between the two. The 6800xt has almost 1000 more stream processors and is about 3% slower. That is a generational achievement from AMD. They just names the cards so badly it takes digging to notice the gains from RDNA 2 -> 3
Ground breaking to use less processors and maintain the same speed LOL. wtf are you on about, it's just depressing
Living in China, with the 4090 being banned, prices for those cards have skyrocketed. But not just that, 7900xtx and 4080 have automatically gone up as well, as now they're the best available cards here as well. Might go with the 7800XT then, or wait for the super.
Im so sorry man
F the Nvidia Super BS !

@@gertjanvandermeij4265what's funny is that in my country the 4070ti super is same price as 7900xt
Hi Daniel, can u make video with 7800xt at same core/memory clocks as the 6800 non xt just to see what the difference between rdna 2 vs 3 at same cu count/clocks thx ❤
Отличный разбор! Спасибо!
in addition - and this will differ significantly from region to region and from seller to seller, but it is worth keeping in mind - 7800xt being a new card, could lead in availability.
Local store where I constantly buy components (I like it, since it never had failed me in terms of service\warranties etc) has a lot of good manufacturer`s 7800xt cards, and significantly less 6800xt, just a dozen "for order" (not one available right away).
So here supply for 7800xt is much better, which means that if something happens I could get replacement much faster.
- 6800 being a more budget friendly card seems to have significant reserves "for order" , even though it is not available right away here.
Not the most important metrics for sure, but still, 7800xt has this QoL pro.
As someone with rx 6800 xt, upgrading to the 7800 xt is out of the question. Least I'll go for is 7900 xt
Of course. For people like me though, getting a 7800xt is appealing coming off from a 5700xt.
Let me see the 8000 series and youll have my interest
@@Yaxie Oh for sure dude, if I were in your place I'd go for it as well.
not even that! u really need 15fps more... like from 85 to 100? i don't see point.... unless u want go full 4k... then u need xtx
noice. got the 6800xt the day it was released, im very happy so far. specially when considering that i paid "only" 635+10shipping €
i only paid 260 usd 😂😂
Thank for help me choose new VGA.
I bought the 7800XT yesterday at 500 USD. A gigabyte card. Hope it delivers, I'm switching from an RTX 2060 Super.
I’ll be doing a new build soon budget between 1000 to 1200 considering going ryzen 5 7600 and 6800, 6800xt, or 7800xt then the following year might drop a 7850x3d and higher card and doing another build with the parts for my kid
Daniel can you check if AMD is downgrading the 6800xt to make the 7800xt look good for sales? Include the 4070 against these two cards more often please.
What should i upragde to from a Vega 64? 7800 XT looks good i think?
Really been enjoying your content of late! These tests are very revealing and (very useful) to anyone considering buying a new GPU today or in the next couple months. 6800 XT is clearly still a very good GPU, though I would personally go for the 7800 XT, were I buying today. RDNA 2 is aging VERY well! Keep up the good work man!
Love my 6800XT, for a year now.
Good video. I would go with the 7800 for future proofing, or 6950 or 7900xt for great future proofing.
For future? 7900 its different range… worth it but between 6800 and 7800 unless a really good deal worth it . Soon they will come with rdn4 and gen 5.
for anyone interested thats in the US thats trying to upgrade from a really old gpu...6800 non xt is 400$ flat on amazon RN and there is a gifst card of 150$ if you sign up for prime visa. 250$ for a 6800 is an amazing deal. i didnt got for it cuz i got too many credit cards already lol. tryng to drop the debt not increase it.
I have a 6800 and 12700k, i want to upgrade one of these this fall. Either a 7800xt or a 12900k. Which would be best for overall quality of life improvement. My pc is a hybrid workstation and game station.
hey Dan, since you talked about Cities Skyline 2, would you make a benchmark about it?
Would be interesting to drop the 7900 GRE in the mix
got my asrock phantom 6800xt in yesterday off ebay $360-410 w/tax. gonna replace my 3070. prob the max my 850w psu can handle. a 1000w+ psu will be needed for next platform upgrade next 3yrs
worth paying more for me. I want latest tech and features all on a reasonable budget. The 7800xt is perfect for that.
Do you even game?
ik this isnt relataed to the video but in canada prices are messed a 6700 xt is like 600$ but A 6750 xt is a 500$ and ive checked new egg and amazon are the 6700 xt is 600$ everywhere so idk whats going on(I got the 6750 xt few months back)
Thanks this made my decision to get the 4090 much more easy.
All three cards are honestly very impressive. The only bright spots in an otherwise dark moment for the industry
Which one best pairs with ryzen 7 7700? Or rtx 4070?
Looks like Rx 7800 XT scale better with RT on. So for those who like RT may prefer the newer card.
I experience the same frame spikes in every game. is this normal? i thought with my 3060ti those were not happening.
The 7800XT is THE value card for high refresh 1440p. The 6800XT got down to $440 during BF sales, but it's back to $490 as supplies dwindle, just $10 less than a 7800XT. I bought my 6800XT a year ago before we had the 7800XT, for $540, a good deal at the time. At a $10 difference, nobody should buy a 6800XT.
I think these recent GPU trade-in programs are a great service considering how deeply eBay stabs its sellers. I don't sell my graphics cards when I upgrade; I give them to friends and family (usually in a full rig), use them in another system, or save them as spares. I would never leave myself without a capable spare GPU for my gaming rig (or a full-on spare PC for that matter).
I bought a Saphire Pulse RX7800 XT at $519 mainly for the physical size the others are to long would had have spent another $100 just to save $20 talk about a no brainer not taking in the labor and time to rebuild my Rig in a new case. Happy with the RX7800 XT huge performance leap from my RX5700 non XT
I would wait to the return of nvidia Super cards at the end of the year. Prices will strong fall. When you need it now, always the New Generation. Driver Support, better effency and better temperatures
I have a 7900 XTX and I'm trying to decide the best somewhat over budget AMD cpu and motherboard to pair with it. The board must have two m.2/ slots. Any suggestions? Also, paying Canadian prices
Depends on what you plan on doing. If it's just gaming, than the 7800X3D is the fastest CPU bar none. If you do significant productivity work than you should get a 7900X3D or 7950X3D. With a 7900 XTX you're obviously playing at at least 1440p ultra settings so you're more GPU limited than CPU so you can also move down to a 7700X or 7900X with little to no real drop in gaming performance in most cases to save some money. Motherboards are kind of a crap shoot, Asrock offers more for the money in general and most have 2 m.2 slots now except the low end cheap boards.
Last gen uses more power and likely to miss out on some gaming features...so ya I would still get Rx 7800 xt
Still struggling between 4070ti for 1440 / 4k gaming vs 7800 XT... Hard choice!
I have two 6800s. The 7800XT looks so tempting since I've got the extra cash on hand. I feel like treating myself for no reason...LOL! So I really needed to see this video.
Just wait another year and buy an even better card my man
@@olivernielsen5395 Too late.... LOL! It's getting delivered tomorrow.
@@out42c 😆
I live in India and here the 6800xt cost more than a 1100$ while the 7800xt cost about 600$
What's the value of getting a year of gaming?
Layers of fear, is it a game or just software to test black levels on monitors?
I'm getting a new GPU, I'm really only playing wow.. Maybe ashes of creations when it's here.
Any thoughts?
Im just wondering if you undervolt and limit the power draw of the 7800 xt to kinda 6800 levels.. how worse/better does the performance value get... I like my gpus cool and quiet and not hot and screaming. The 7800 xt does look alot cooler tho... what model was used. I might be blind since I cant find that info. Oc versions, which cooler, which manufacturer etc.
i got the xtx7800xt 57'c to 62'c dont hear the fans, vertical mount in a nzxt h6 rgb case. std no undervolt.
Holy crap did you intentionally make your final thoughts 10x more complicated than it needed to be?
thx
Those temps on the 7800 XT are pretty promising though
5% roughly faster and the 7800 xt is only good cuz of its watt compared to 6800 xt i wish that 7900 gre would be more widely available its much more interesting card
The cheapest I can get 6800, 6800XT, 7800XT in/to Croatia for is 440€, 530€ and 594,25€
7800xt is really good 🔥... i build pc with 5600x cpu , soon around 1 month i gonna get 7800xt and i gonna have my dream pc .❤
watch the power draw on the 6800. Insane performance per watt.
got a 6800 gaming z for 450 euros half a year ago, caught it while on sale. Overclocked goes to 6800 xt performance. Makes no sense to upgrade IF you already have one.
I'd always get the newest option in your budget
Newest is not always better. In this case, it definitely is.
i was able to get the 6800xt for 500$ Canadian and sold my 3060ti for 250$ so it was a great upgrade for me couldn't justify paying almost 800$ with warranty for a 4070 or a 7800xt just too much money in my opinion. The card handles cyberpunk 2077 at 1440p with settings high/medium and i can run anywhere from 70-100fps and starwars jedi survivor i can get 130fps with fsr on. The card is well worth it if you can get a deal for it of course if you have the extra money a 7800xt or a 7900xt or a 4070 super would be slightly better but cost alot more money
As a 6800 owner. non XT. I appreciate the video. And my 6800. £400. Upgrading to either does not warrant me spending another £500. Thanks
I'm a happy owner of 7800xt now
I got a second hand 6800 reference card for 260 usd, looking at this video abt pricing. Now i feel like I'm blessed.
Amds position in the market is not good enough for them to be rereleasing cards with different names like nvidia did with the 20 series. Wth were they thinking
I just want a quality XTX under $900. Starting to think prices are going the other way. Time to pull the trigger??!
If you can wait for November amazon should start deals that month again right before thanksgiving and on black friday. Also get it on payment if you have Prime you can pay it off in like 5 months..
That’s if you are in the states Of course.
I mean I think it dropped below 850 at some point earlier in the year so its not out of the question for it to go that low on some black friday or cyber monday deals
Wait for January sales. Prices always go up before Black Friday after the consumer laws that stated they couldn't call it a discount unless the price had been higher than the advertised price for at least XYZ days. And then comes the holiday sales where they try to extort as much money as possible.... and then comes January where everyone is broke as fuck, so they lower prices. Always buy in January.
I need an honest advice, rn I could get a 6800 xt asus oc 3fan for 370$, or a 7800xt sapphire pulse 2fan for 440$, which one is more worth it? both are used
3 fan all day, fps similar depending on settings and resolutions
I was running a 1070 in an ITX build that was finally supplanted by the 7800 XT after I refused to pay Ngreedia's extortionate prices. I'm in love with this card. Tackles every bloody thing I throw at it. If you're upgrading from something that's at least two generations old, I'd highly recommend it. I've had no driver issues thus far and it overclocks and undervolts well. I've got the Sapphire Pulse model, and the fans do ramp up a bit when under load but they're not audible if you've got headphones on.
The Pulse models have a needlessly aggressive fan curve. It's probably for the better for an ITX build, but Sapphire does this because Pulse cards are used in A LOT of prebuilt systems that come with abysmal case ventilation.
I really hope AMD figures out the multi-chiplet GPU game.
Oc 6800xt vs 7800xt stock pls
Is the 7800XT expected to see performance improvements as its drivers mature in the future? I'm currently on the fence between purchasing a second-hand 6800XT for $457 or a brand new 7800XT for $633.
Note that these prices are specific to my country.
Buy the RX 7800 XT. I bought the RX 6700 XT last year for 537 euro and atm i can get the RX 7800 XT for 500 euro.
It's a new card, so it's going to get better over time.
What a ripoff man. Get a forwarding address in the US and get the card the you want. I don't live in the US either and got mine for 500USD like that.
@@luisbustamante5479How do you forward items like that? Wouldn’t customs get you?
Crazy why no Cyberpunk test. This game is very significant for testing the latest RT technologies. It is the Crysis of modern times and must ALWAYS be included when testing GPUs...
People that buy AMD don’t care about Raytracing man.
@@ZackSNetwork Cmon man. Yea it didn't used to mean much but with newer games it has become a signficant feature to want. Look at frame generation. Never used to mean much, but now, it too has become significant. If you don't place demand on these features, AMD won't bother and Nvidia will be allowed to walk all over AMD.... Force AMD to stay relevant by demanding competative performance in these things....
It doesn't particularly mater in A-B testing from the same manufacturer which games you test with. The same relative scaling shows in Cyberpunk as it does in the games he tested.
@@ZackSNetwork What do you mean we dont care. my 6900xt is running everything 60+ fps in all Raytracing games. Tested cyberpunk77, metro exodus and witcher 3 so far... if you Nvidia greeder fans actually stopped and checked price/performance, most AMD cards destroy nvidia even in raytracing. my 6900xt was 800 one year ago, 4070TI is 1100. For that money i can get 7900XTX and completely destroy shitty 4070TI in comparison for the same price. SOOOOOOOOOO tired of this Nvidia shit... Like come on, use your brain.
60+FPS at 2k
I guess good for you folks in the US. The lowest local retailer offers 650usd with tax for 7800xt
If the 6800xt dropped to $400 then it becomes tougher to choose
I decided to get the rx 6800 a year ago instead of the XT because the price was good and i liked the much lower watts consumption & temps.
Also the temps for the rx 7800xt are very impressive
I have my hellhound 7800xt overclocked and undervolted in a itx case and top out at 66c. That’s with a fan speed cap of 50%. So agreed, the temps are good with the right aib card.
yep 6800 nonXT has probably the best fps/watts ratio in whole rx 6000s and rtx 3000s series together
@@nevernicemeadow yet it doesn't have enough FPS to be close to XT
