the 6900 xt with 80 CU's & 80 Ray Accelerators at 999
is going to kill the 3080 .
Being the new performance king of GPUs, I can't wait to get my hands on a 6900 XT AiB partner board w/ a beefy cooler or full water block. It's currently the only card on my radar, and I'm gonna OC the living hell out of it!
If I can't get one by year's end, I can easily wait until 1st quarter 2021. One thing is for certain, I will not be taken at scalper prices. It's never that serious. The games aren't going anywhere, especially over the course of a few weeks.
I'm truly hoping that 6800 XTs will be more readily available throughout December, in turn, offsetting the demand for the 6900 XT. Wishful thinking, anyway.
On another note, I'm so tempted to pick up a Ryzen 5000 series CPU to go along with it. The fastest processors on the market in single/dual threaded applications would go a long way. Besides, SAM is an attractive feature, and I'd like to test it out for myself. Only thing is, it seems I'd have no choice but to purchase the 5950X in order to see any significant performance increase as my 3950X is already pretty powerful.
First order of business is the 6900 XT, though.
