AMD Radeon 6000 - Big Navi

There really doesn't seem to be much different at least in real world use. Sure, in synthetic testing, but its single frames for the most part.

With the 3070 I’d constantly be anxious about how soon (when, not if) those 8gb of RAM turn into a bottleneck.
Apart from that, I guess it’s down to your usage profile. Is raytracing or dlss of importance to you or in the titles you play? If so: Nvidia.
Edit: for me, currently, I’d get a 6800 in a heartbeat, if it were available and maybe just a tiny bit cheaper

How's about you pick whichever one is in stock when you buy it?

That seems as good advice as any really

3090 is easy to get

Considering I just came from having 2gigs of vram, if 8 suddenly becomes a liability, I'm gonna be pissed.

Ti and Super supposed addre

Just got a order for a 3070, so I hope not.

The old radeon I have has 1Gb, so I hope its an improvement.

The old card has crashed a few times since I got a 1440p / 165Mhz monitor. Black screen, system still on! Apparently some folks encounter same problem on 5000 series cards!

huh, don't quite know what to make of that... early board partner bios seems to suggest (much) higher clock rates for 6700 xt series cards compared to the 6800 in order to make up for the much smaller chip.
