RX 6700(xt) coming soon

[SuperGeil]

3060ti competitor. Although it will be its nightmare if it has infinity cache.

It is worth noting that references to Navi 22 had previously been highlighted in a Linux driver release, back in July. There was not much information to go on, but rumor has it the Radeon RX 6700 series will debut with 40 compute units, same as the Radeon RX 5700 XT (but with a newer graphics architecture, obviously), and 20 fewer than the Radeon RX 6800.

AMD's upcoming cards could arrive early next year, and skirmish with the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti. it will be interesting to see how the parts compare, both in performance and in price.

Very interested in where these end up. The 3060 and this are both high on my radar to see if they can really offer a good 1080/1440p experience that's worth it

I am considering a 6500 for 100 Euro.

I am considering a 6500 for 100 Euro.

This link suggests (all rumours at this point) that the 3060ti will be north of 500 Euros so 6700's won't be much cheaper. So you think 100 Euro's for 6500. I think you may be very dissapointed. https://www.techradar.com/uk/news/nv...prising-prices

The 580's are still selling for over £200.

You can get 5500XT's for 200 if you try.

[LordHawkwind]

Consensus seems to be these will launch Q1 2021 so between January and March. If January expect stock to be readily available around March but if launched in March expect June time. I don't think these cards will get scalped too much because 'ordinary' people who buy these cards are very price resistant. They are not going to pay £800 for a card worth £400 and will hang onto their existing hardware until the price normalises. So no profit for scalpers.

6700 6gb, 6700XT 12gb

If the 6700 is priced right, I have my new card.

Pricing and availability you mean.

Yeah, if the reviews are favourable I'm likely going to buy one of these on launch because I fear the availability will be low and the prices will go bonkers after

Can't see the 6700 being anywhere near 100 Euros probably nearer 350 so a big of an uplift in price for you.

Good luck!

[Trunks0]

Good luck!

Thx! The 3060Ti's took at least the day or so to sell out locally. So I'm hoping for the same thing with these when they launch, giving me plenty of time to snap one up if I don't hesitate.

AMD RX 6700 XT rumoured to launch March 18 in 'more than very limited' quantities

https://www.pcgamer.com/amd-rx-6700-...-availability/

"It looks like it's going to be rather tough to call this one anything but a paper launch if such rumours turn out to be true. Though I'm sure if the likes of Frank Azor can find a way to buy one simply by clicking refresh a few times on the AMD.com store pages, then the rest of us will be able to bag a shiny new Radeon RX 6700 XT GPU if we want it bad enough."

[pax]

With the 3060 overpriced at 500$ we know this one will be too. Couple that with the Navi3 leaks showcasing huge perf increases and Im more than happy to let the rich kids burn themselves out on this current gen while I wait for the next one.

Pax you pays your money and you takes your choice. Unfortunately AMD have tasted the elixir of charging over a $1,000 for a GPU and they've all sold out. I'm afraid that elixir is intoxicating and very hard to come off. Ask the jacket.

At the last shareholders meeting Lisa Su was asked why would you want to produce MBA cards at MSRP when you could sell them for far more or just increase the price to AIB's. Seen any AMD MBA MSRP cards lately, I haven't and they said they'd be in the channel Q1 2021.

It's just business and if RDNA3 comes in with your all your wildest dreams what do you expect it will cost? Maybe $1,500 for starters. Beware what you wish for lest it becomes true. That's life ATM I'm afraid.

[Trunks0]

Interesting take, but I think the prices are more reflective of the demand being relatively high and the supply low because of the current unique situation with manufacturing and shipping. The prices will drop as/when things start settling out so supply can be increased.

*late edit* IE going with a higher MSRP because things are selling out now, it not smart business as the current situation is unique and not indicative how things normally play out.

[Gandalfthewhite]

its a mix of tariffs, the substrate supply issues, and the 3rd crypto boom that are driving prices due to demand.

Well a pox on both their gpu houses imo because once this thing is over and the various problems are shed from crypto to supply to covid most if not all of which are forecasted to be over by next year prices have only one way to go.

Mind you if this is 350 us or 400-450 CAD and they can keep it at msrp I might snag one. If perf which is rumored to be basically a 3070 level that would make it ~50% faster than my vega 64. Has 4 gigs ram more and would be for a 1440p mon plus Id like to have the new video decoder on there...

Also story is this thing clocks like mad and more importantly scales a lot better at high clocks.

Ill see but wont pay crazy banana pants for one.

[O.D.]

So launching March 18th at $479

Riiiiiiight.....

[nutcrackr]

Don't think I'll be able to get one given the lack of availability of other cards.

[NIGELG]

I hope this card does well.

AMD has to kick Nvidia in the Nuts.

If only they could have mass availability they would have last year.

To me this is the natural successor to the 5700XT with the same number of CU's but newer RDNA2. At $479 about what I paid for my old AIB 5700XT. Could be a good card if they can get enough supply.

AMD claims it could beat or compete with the 3070.

I might have to start a buyer's remorse thread

You bought what you could afford and was available at the time. No remorse needed. In Tech there is always something faster, more efficient less expensive coming in the future but you have to buy in the present otherwise you'll never buy anything.

In the last 4 months I've bought a new GPU, CPU, Monitor and head phones and every single one of them have exceeded my expectations. Buyer's remorse you're having a laugh, I'm ecstatic actually as you should be because you've done the same upgrades (maybe not the head phones).

I know. It's a dig at a certain forum member who used to always have remorse threads.

It's a running joke on the forum.

Fanning the flames?

I will head back over to OT graphics where it's safer in case anyone wants to talk about this.

Hopefully AMD can increase production of GPUs by summer. CPUs seem to be readily available now.

Roundup

Kind of mediocre, but under the current circumstances if someone wants a card and sees it for sale they should just buy without thinking.

Ya, if you see it, buy it!

[KAC]

Pretty meh product. Not sure what is the target market. If you take MSRP the 3070 for 20 bucks more seems like a much better deal.

Of course nothing will be available at that price so we can just kiss this whole gen goodbye.

[pax]

No bad cards just bad prices. 6700xt is a 400$ USD card.

The reference came out at 650 CAD and sold out imediately. But the aibs range up to 1100$ CAD.
