i probably could have saved about 200 bux if i waited 2 months to buy my 6600
And for the price i did pay i could have gotten a 6600XT
but.....NO RAGRATS!

XFX Speedster SWFT 319 AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT for 679.99 on amazon -_- where was this pricing before? I'm tempted to get it since I just gave my 6800 to my nephew
US prices dropped at the same as the peso/looney dropped. So we are still paying ~1000$ CAD up here.
Oh well.
AMD’s Big Navi Gets Big Price Cut, Radeon RX 6900 XT Now Selling For $669 US As RDNA 3 Launch Approaches
The peso/dollar dropped as fast as the prices up here so they stayed the same.
But seeing the massive oc on the 4090, an extra 150w for an extra 5-10% perf, I think we can surmise they know RDNA3 will be competitive so that should help prices.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 (733W)
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 (600W)
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 (565W)
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 (478W)
AMD Radeon RX 7950 XT (702W)
AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT (610W)
AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT (580W)
AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT (478W)
Once again, these look a lot like preliminary listings so take the wattage figures with a grain of salt. Currently, neither AMD nor NVIDIA has confirmed the wattage figures of the unreleased GPUs that are listed by Enermax.
Yeah dang that'd be a big grain of salt. Pretty sure AMD will win in efficiency. 2nd gen of the ryzen team optimizing it will be a good leap like rdna2 was. I think the only caveat is if it has frame generation tech and what the RT perf is.
I kind of hope they dont do the 'our frame generation tech is useable on all gpus' bit this time because that only helps nvidia. Market and prices dont work well when nvidia has 80% share. And intel, well, ring me up in 3-4 years... Slightly less quality for driver side only on a frame gen tech tho would be better. We want the it works on all games all apis kind of thing.
Raw raster AMD will win easily imo. Im not that impressed by the 4090 in raw perf increase. Some games are only ~40% over a 3090ti.
RDNA 3...
Juicy details...
TOMORROW...?!?!
Derbauer is gonna tune his 4090 down to 300w. That extra 5% isnt worth 150w and anything burning. {insert my pict of sata cable burning }
But competition is competition and I wonder what AMD is gonna do:

Just a rumor but who knows AMD likes to rain on others parades
Verification from multiple sources that
@Radeon
Navi 31 will support upcoming DisplayPort 2.1 specification. I am tremendously surprised that
@NVIDIAGeForce
4090 only supports DP 1.4a. Props to
@LinusTech
for calling out the DP1.4/4090 shortcomings!
lets hope for a hurricane
New purchases from participating retailers of Radeon RX 6900, 6800, 6700 and 6600 series will give you two game coupons to claim Dead Island 2 and The Callisto Protocol. With Radeon 6500 and 6400 series, you will only get one game, which is Dead Island 2.
It is not important if your Radeon card was bought from system integrator or directly from a retailer. The only requirement is to buy the card from a participating partner. You will find the full list by following the link below.
It is worth noting that Radeon RX 7000 series cards are not included in this promotion. Those are set to launch on December 13th, so AMD might update the list of cards by that time.
The promotion will last until February 4 2023, and you can redeem your code by March 4, 2023.
