6800 XT $649 6800 579. so not exactly a hugely lower price but it might still be low enough with sales to make it worth it.

$649 50 cheaper than 3080, and faster, with 16 GB ram. Totally RIP 3080. Nice not knowing it.
No its faster then 2080TI

Im quite the opposite TBH , I think Nvidia did pretty good. well , no one has one yet , that is true LOL

I would have liked to see an RT performance comparison.. but it looks like a really strong lineup. If I can't get a 3080 by the time the 6800XTs come out, looks like Ill be going with a 6800XT instead. I don't think the extra $400+ for 8 CUs is worth on the 6900XT.

$999 CRUSHED. Byeeee $1500 RTX 3090. So long and thanks for all the fish.

I will still hold any true jugdement till third party reviews, but it least looks like AMD is getting serious, not seen this since the 7000 series

Soooo pricing on these are... Weird? Definitely lower than Nvidia but I still think these are a little high. These are cool but I'm more interested in seeing mainstream rdna2 products.

I was hoping for 500$ rx 6800 that would be amazing.

6800XT vs. 3080: ~same performance (or maybe a bit better?), $50 less, less power consumption, +6GB VRAM. 6900 XT vs. 3090: ~same performance (or maybe a bit better?), less power consumption, -4GB VRAM, $500 less. What just happened? 😀
3090 has 8 more GB of VRAM.

Why please explain they have a card that equals and beats the 3090 with less power for hundreds less and its too expensive, you must be either a fanboi or delusional

I wonder just how many will go for a 6900XT right now. For me , it is way out of my league and what i am willing to pay for a video card.

like i said , for ME it is too expensive! Good job instantly putting a label on someone LOL
Fox2232:

Compared to RTX 3090? What if you crank 6900XT to power limit of 3090?
It could actually be faster. But i do not think these cards overclock very well. infact overclocking ability has been declining everywhere over the years, which is really a big let down for me.

Isn't it minus 8gb vram the 6900XT was still 16gb if i saw right
