Having recently picked up a brand new 6750XT for £429, I can fully agree with this. Props on the Loot Lord plushie as well!
I'm waiting for my 6750xt to show up in the mail
But is it Satan edition?
@@titgig7232 Acer Loser Suckface Edition... 😞
Got my 6750xt Monday just gone. All I can say is don't believe sites like userbenchmark which says a 3060ti is better than the 6750xt.. it is not. These cards are a beast
@@salmon85 100%, and RSR makes it even better in every game that doesn't support FSR!
Got a 6700xt for $360 and the price to performance is incredible. Close to 3070 performance for about $200 less. I’m extremely happy with my purchase decision. Don’t pass up AMD cards guys 🙏🙏🙏
That is a really good bang for the bucks deal.
But with the 3070, you could use ray tracing with almost worthwhile framerates, whereas now you have to settle for being stuck with excellent frame rates, and there's usually no point in using upscaling because your framerate will be great without it...

we can continue and upping the price if we want to....
@@jesusbarrera6916 But with the 3090 you still can't max out Cyberpunk at 1440p without dropping to under 100 fps, so you actually need a 4090.
@@dudebroguymate nobody NEEDS a 4090
I actually bought a 6700xt a couple of months ago when they dropped below $400US. I looked at the benchmarks between it and the RTX 3060 and the future proofing of 1440P really stood out for me in addition to the performance at 1080P. I am using a 1080P monitor for now but my plan is to upgrade within the next year to a nice 144mhz 1440P monitor. So that's where I'm at and why I did it.
the 6700xt can be on par or better in some cases to a 3070! ; though if you enabled SAM.
same i bought the red devil 6700xt in black friday for 379$
@@cjagria Wow that's an amazing deal. I hope the card works well for you. I am thinking of going all AMD once I decide to upgrade from my 2070 Super.

Nice! The 6700XT is great for 1440P, and that jump in resolution is real awesome.
Radeon has definitely come along way, it's been nice to see how sensible they've managed to keep the market
Radeon has been. Never along way.
They need to invest into AI, machine learning, and ray tracing. They're important, and people need to stop denying it.
@@cryluneray tracing is not important at all
@@crylune Rasterized graphics are more than capable of giving the Triple A experience without ganking your frame rate for BS lighting that is too taxing on the current architecture of GPU's to not be a huge waste of time and money... I'm not saying they should get rid of it, as with everything else, as generations pass it will always get better, but the idea that it's currently something NEEDED is ridiculous at best.
@@crylune AMD are in all those markets, they just don't have the budget and support nvidia have.
Awesome timing! I just got a 6750XT this weekend for about 520 euros and I'm very happy with the results, nice to see that it's not all just Nvidia and their crazy current prices.
Great purchase, here in Germany prices are similar. Still not good but hey better than 800€ what we would have paid a few months ago
@@dricebaker6594 AMD actually dropped below MSRP with most of their cards in the last few month and offer quite decent value for the price.
You can get a 6600 for ~250€, a 6700xt for ~400€ and a top of the line 6950xt for ~850€ (which is faster than a 3090 that starts at 1250€).
I was waiting for 3060ti/3070 prices to ever drop - still well above the MSRP (which was increased from 400/500 to 430/550), so I went with a Asus RX6700xt instead for 420 and it performs great.
The 6750XT is only like $20 more here, it's such an awesome card for that almost free 10% performance boost and definitely a better longterm investment

Love AMD but waiting for more AI. 7000 range for $899 with 24 gb going to trash the mid range AMD cards in a few weeks.
6700 XT are definite beasts. I just got a used one for 220 USD and it's absolutely shreds any game at 1080P. I also recommend undervolting it, i got mine from 190W to 120W with 5-7% performance decrease. Absolutely worth it, especially in this current situation of ballooning energy prices.
UV is incredible for cooler temps and less noise but 120 vs 190w does very little to your electricity bill. It's like $25 vs $30/month for your entire PC. Nobody cares.
It depends heavily on energy costs in your area, and how much you use it.
@@dudebroguymate @Rares let's do some math. For example, electricity price in Germany is around 0.45$/kWh. Let's review two configurations:
1) UVed 6700 xt that uses 120W and the rest of the system which will use around 80W, 200W total
2) Stock 6700xt that uses around 200W, 80W for the rest of the system, 280W total
Lets account for 240v-12v acdc conversion losses, now its smth like 220W vs 310W from the wall.
Let's say we have enough free time to game 6 hours a day.
Then you're spending 0.6$ a day, 18 bucks a month for the first config and 0.84$ a day, 25 bucks a month for the second one.
Kinda proves your point, the difference of 7 bucks might not be that huge, but, you know, UVing is free and if performance hit is negligible for you, then why not?
@@vinylSummer Thanks for proving my point. I never said UV was anything but awesome, I just don't agree that the energy savings are the main benefit (or a benefit at all).
@@dudebroguymate True that!
I actually made this same decision a few months ago; ended up going with the 6700 XT over the 3060. I've been very happy with my choice. It has handled everything I've thrown at it very well.
well considering it gives you better then 3070 (not 3070ti) in performance... you made the right choice. 3060 isnt even a consideration.
@@ruckus1981 as an owner of a 3060,3070, and 6700xt, the 6700xt does not outperform a 3070 at any resolution above 1080p. Dollar to performance ratio is where it kicks the 3070’s ass though.
Powercolor has surprisingly high build quality. I have a powercolor hellhound rx 6600, and even at $240 usd, it still has a metal backplate...
AMD has really closed the gap with Greedvidia and in many cases beats their cards. Since AMD announced they are now an official partner/sponsor of OBS Studio I am guessing that AMD is going to start working hard on closing the encode/decoding/production gap as well. This is all good for the market place and consumers.
Their encoders are already close to Nvidia's after the last updates too. The only thing that is remaining is the productivity side and then there would be absolutely no reason to buy Nvidia
@@hamoudy98productions Unfortunately the AMD encoders are way behind in flexibility and the bit rate needed to have comparable picture quality. You end up with a file that is around 30% larger to have the same quality even after post processing with say DaVinci Resolve. Larger files take more resources and time to process. I currently use a Rx 6900 XT in my all AMD system but I have recently used my buddies intel/Nvidia system with a 3090 and the difference is clear. Here's to hoping the gap closes with AV1 and optimizations from OBS.
On a professional level AMD is a complete joke. Little different on the consumer level though.
The encoder update would be damn Awesome for my 6600xt, lol.
Shame they kinda dropped the ball with performance on the 7000 series.
I would choose the Radeon card mainly because I would be dual booting the system and Linux doesn't really like Nvidia cards but also a higher frame rate on certain games is something that has me sold.
I'm a just getting into PC gaming. I'm trying to learn as much as possible. Your videos have helped me up my knowledge! Keep up the good work my guy
I got a 6700XT a couple weeks ago for $360 US. I love what AMD is doing with GPU prices! Finally a reasonable 1440P GPU.

I bought a 6600XT around this time last year as it was all that I could find its a Red Devil and it has been amazing. Since then I've bought a 6900XT XFX Merc and a 6600 Hell Hound for my other machines they all have worked great. 6600XT handles 1440p no problem. Been very pleased with the RDNA2 cards. These cards replaced a 1080,1070 ,and 970.
When placing radiators you should always place the tubes at the bottom. That way the inevitable air bubbles will stay at the top of the radiator and wont by sucked into the pump which decreases cooling performance and increases wear significantly.
Dude, thank you for showing all the nerds who follow you (and not the pc market) just how damn good this card is for its price. What’s even crazier is you can find 6600’s for around $180-$200 and 6600xt for 230-250 and both of those put the overpriced 3060 In it’s place…
how can you even find a rx6600 for $180-$200? Shops around me sell it for around $350-$500
@@wafflies8790 it’s purely region based. Also, if you can’t find one new at a good price, try used. I regularly see 6700XTs for $300USD~, and you can find 6800s for around $400, which puts it closer to the 3070 Ti or 3080 in some stuff.
Yeah, it my experience a 6600 will almost reach 3060 performance, but at a WAY better price. The 6600 XT typically matches or beats out 3060 for still less money!

Anyway, lets try to game on both! And give away one of them! It doessnt matter to Dawid which one he uses :D .
He was talking about the 3060
I would definitely go for the 6700XT even though I’m a green lover at heart, the extra performance at a higher resolution is a no brainer! Especially because I usually game at 1440P
Meh 4K isnt that big a difference, 3840x2160 - 2560x1440 = 1280x720 pixels. Just go for it with that gpu. I have old tech 2018 strix 2070 $550, so Im stuck on 1440p 144hz.
@@fynkozari9271 If you're talking about performance, that's not a useful way to compare resolutions. When you double the resolution, you actually quadruple the number of pixels, because you're doubling in two dimensions (width and height).3840x2160 is actually 2.2 times as many pixels as 2560x1440. And 4 times as many pixels as 1920x1080.
If you're talking about pixel density, I would say it's also a misleading way of looking at things. 3840 is 1.5*2560. Comparing two monitors of the same size, you're getting 1.5 times as many pixels in each dimension, which can make for a significant improvement to clarity (depending on your monitor size and how far away you sit from it).
demon card looks so unique. would like to put a extension cable to have it fully displayed on the side

went from a 3070 fe to a 6700xt and cant tell a diff on 1440p
@@dylangrider3369 That makes sense since the 3070 and 6700XT are supposed to be direct competitors. The point is that you can get an AMD 1440p card (6700XT) for the price of an NVIDIA 1080p card (3060). I will say around me the 3060 Ti is price to price with the 67x0XT cards, so it's not as big a bloodbath but the 67x0XT still beats the 3060 Ti.
For gaming yes, for productivity usage NO
I would choose the 6700XT, Because better performance against rtx3060, cool design and it's close performance to 3060 ti with less power draw.
My dude,you're such a funny and informative at the same time.
I love it
Congrats on 500K 🥳🎉
@Dawid Does Tech Stuff
Been with Powercoler for some years due to their solid build quality and performance. I have had my vega56 red dragon for few years now and it still performs well at 1440p getting a solid 80fps on battlefield 2042 on high. My next card will be another red dragon 6750 if my wife really loves me! A new card just isn't for Christmas,it's for life :)
Personally I'd choose the Satan 6700xt because of its great performance and cooling. Not to mention the upgrade from an hd 5500 to a possessed gpu seems right.
I would go for a 6700XT, this card is satanly beast.
I snagged one of these PowerColor Red Devil 6700 XTs on Ebay for $310 shipped a couple of weeks ago. Amazing purchase, and it overclocked to 2.75 GHz core / 17.2Gbps memory for an almost 10% gain with no problems
I have that exact model and i love it. It looks really cool mounted vertically in my Phanteks Shift 2 Air case
The 6700XT is a beast of a card. The 3060 branding automatically adds a premium
It's a premium for Ray tracing.
@@randomguy_069 That you can't acutally use at the 3060 non-Ti level without performance loss from hell. 😁
@@rk9340 You can with DLSS actually!
@@umamifan yeah but doesn’t that kind of defeat the whole purpose of raytracing?
@@umamifan Yea, but then you get a small visual improvement paired with a visual degradation from DLSS so you end up with a worse looking game. (friend of mine got his 3070 last year before the price hike started specifically to play Cyberpunk 2077, which is probably the game that profits most from RTX and actually seeing it in the flesh convinced me pretty quickly that RTX isn't something I need - well, at least not in a forseeable future.)
I LOVE this kind of videos. I don't have a pc, i can't afford it. I game a little bit on my old laptop but this kind of videos help me fantasize and i love them
that's just sad
I feel you , watching on phone 🥺
This was me about 1.5-2 years ago. Built my first PC after watching way too many tech videos. Dawid's videos have been great fun and informative.
You can get into a gaming pc for relatively cheap on 1-2 generation old hardware, search marketplace for all the parts on the second hand market and just slowly build it man.
Nobody should buy a 3060 over a 6700 or 6750XT
lovely video, the red devil is beautiful! you should try to improve your benchmarks data by creating a simple graphic on word or powerpoint, plain text is kinda weird considering you have awesome footage in 4k, kinda breaks down the immersion.
That Red Devil 6700xt has a really overbuilt cooler for the power draw. Max I could pull was 230w while OC'd running furmark. You can basically run the fans at the minimum in the radeon software (35%) and essentially have a silent card.
The satan card's overall look is as mightily impressive as the performance
warning the gpu is about to catch fire and burn your house down quick turn it off turn it off🤣🤣🤣
I like the Scamvidia card, thin and nice looking. Like liquid cooled design. But 3060 8gb is a scam. lower performance, same price.
6700xt is a class above the 3060. Even with RT which is a strong suit for Nvidia it gets beaten. What a deal on an amazing card!
Hey Dawid, curious if the testing with the 6700XT had SAM enabled or not. (And if not, any thought on looking at if SAM impacts benchmarks?) Thanks for the continued content and experiments!
Given the choice, I would definitely go with the AMD card that you clearly showed is a considerable amount better for games.
Love the video Dawid!!
I had the RX 6700XT red devil running on my Gigabyte 1440p ultrawide. I loved how well it runs.
Recently, I just swapped it with a 6750XT I was given. Still, great cards from AMD.
Well I just got the RX 6600 hell hound addition (influence from one of your videos) and I have to say. The price to performance is great. I paid $300 for the card at the time and I'm just loving how the card handles all the games at 1080p with ease.
Now I know it can't compare to the 6700 XT in performance, but I'm still happy with my purchase.
Unless you move beyond a 1080p monitor, those other, faster, cards are just wasted potential.
I have one of those too and I love it
An old 5700 xt still rivals the 6600 xt. They are pretty much the same GPU. I just can't pull the trigger on one because it's just a hair less powerful than I want :(
@@ToddandRaquiForrest eh, I just got a xfx speedster swft 6700xt and I have that paired with a 1080p 165 hz 1 ms response monitor and I have SAM enabled with my ryzen 5600 (non x) and am playing basically any game between 120-170 fps on high/ultra settings. I don't think it was a waste! High refresh rate gang lol (though in the near future I do think I'll upgrade my monitor to 1440p 144 hz or 165 hz)
Dankie Dawid for this cool channel from a fellow South African and showing we have grate sense of humor and are naturally funny
I have the White PowerColor RX 6700 XT Hellhound 12GB used off Ebay for 300, added thermal putty between backplate and card, added copper shims and used thermal putty, card is absolutely chilly. Its a 1440p beast and I have two monitors. Should never really need to upgrade unless I go to 4k.
Hey, may i suggest showing a frametime graph instead of a framerate graph to get a sense of stability between systems ?
As a proud owner of that specific Rx 6700xt I will forever call it the Beelzebub edition, sounds so much cooler.
I just purchased a Power Color RX 6700 XT from Micro Center ($345 US) about a week ago. I only ran the Unigine Superposition and Heaven 4.0 benchmarks on it, but the performance came out between an RTX 3070 Ti and an RTX 3080 in Superposition and slighly better than an RTX 3080 in Heaven 4.0. I had all settings turned up to maximum on both benchmarks and screen resolution was 1080p for both, since I still use an archaic 1080p TV for my display. (It's a living room media PC.) Overall I'm extremely satisfied with the RX 6700 XT, and as a bonus with VSynch on (ie: 60fps locked) the power consumption stays below 120Wh on Horizon Zero Dawn almost all the time and the idle power consumption hovers around 8Wh. Nice to see the comparison even though it really wasn't a fair test. I would have like to see some RT turned on results, but I know that the RT performance from the RX 6000 cards sucks compared to nVidia. (I think the AMDs are about half the RT performance of the nVidia cards, so the 3060 would have likely tied the 6700 XT.)
I have the 6600 XT which is serving me well. Second hand prices for these had dropped through the floor and are excellent options if you can't afford the 6700 XT. While I don't tax the card and mainly play Fallout 76 it doesn't need to spin up the fans at all and still stays below 60°C in South Africa.
Keep up the great work. Can’t wait to watch the video. ❤
Just finished building my son's first gaming computer yesterday, went with the Asus Dual 6700XT as the value was amazing I felt. Metal Backplate, nice subtle RGB, beautiful card.
Me 2. Love Asus build quality.
RGB? Doesn't it have like a single light strip with a static color?
I have been running a Powercolor RT 6700 XT Red Devil for about a year ... great card. At the time the 3060's were about $400 more than the Powercolor card.
hello, Dawid, it's always fun to watch your tech video which never bore the audience. May I know which software you use of showing FPS and those HW information during game?
MSI AfterBurner and GPUZ
Aside from the performance diff, I'd choose the 6700 xt cuz it's edgy and I kinda like the glowing color when it's turned on perfectly capturing the "beast" of a graphics card it is.
I’d have to go with the 6700XT on this one. I like the better rasterization performance and don’t have any experience with RT. So I’d take the all around beefier card lol.
I've found RT nice but I prefer raw fps. Once the performance difference becomes more manageable RT will be great.

already posted after 2 days? You are a very consistent youtuber which posts very good videos. Anyway, I would pick the Rx 6700 xt over the rtx 3060, beacuse it is overall a better performing gpu, and beacuse it has rgb, and we all know that rgb means pro gamer.

Dawid just ran your dad over sorry about that one🤣🤣🤣
AMD's low market share has me scratching my head to be honest. The 6000 series is amazing.
People are dumb. That's it.
Most people just go with what they know
Because the only thing AMD graphic cards do well is gaming. Nvidia owns the entire creative/productivity market, and more people are buying GPUs for that then they are for gaming.
That could be bugs living in your hair.
It's simple uneducated buyers and brand bias. Lots of people who only buy Nvidia can't accept that an AMD card can have the same performance or more for the same or less money.
I kinda need the 3060 for content creations.
but for purely gaming? yeah AMD's 6700xt Satanas is a way to go for a smooth high fps game. making me wish other content creation also uses AMD's hardware and software
I recently bought the PowerColor RX6700XT 12gb and love it! I can throw 1440p at it all day long without a hitch. It also does amazingly well at 4K too.
That exact card is currently 350$ on Aliexpress with worldwide shipping, and even though is used you at least has some kind of waranty that the card at least have display video or the seller will cover it, crazy to think that you can have a 1440p experience for such amount of money
I got a 6700xt a few months back, it's been nothing but an amazing time with it. I only play 60fps with a vsync enabled as my refresh rate is only 60, but it's had no problems keeping it locked in. So I guess if I won I'd pick the 3060 solely because I already have a 6700xt
What monitor are you running? I think uprgrading your monitor to even 75hz or better would give you a better gaming experience than such a high end graphics card
200fps 60hz is way better than 60 fps 60hz so please don't use vsync.

These AMD copes always ignore it despite it being a huge elephant. Ray tracing performance is another elephant in the same room, although not as relevant... YET. AMD is competing on price/raster frames and that's nice but they CANNOT compete with Nvidia on actual technology and productivity.
@@steel5897 100% agree.
If you do anything other than gaming with your GPU, I wouldn't recommend it.
Excellent video. I was planning on picking up a 3060 next week. Not anymore. I'll be getting the 6700 for sure. Thanks
I was having trouble running warzone with my 6700XT. It was skipping, frame drops, etc. went into adrenaline, applied RSR, dropped the display resolution down and adjusted the in game Res. Bam, perfect. My friend tried to do the same with his rtx 2070 and it didn’t work as well.
Both are great cards and either one would make most gamers pretty happy. I've used both Nvidia and AMD over the last 35 years and it's amazing how that both push each other each generation to do better. The 6700xt is a great card for that price no doubt.
Some people out there are really sleeping on the AMD 6000 series cards for sure.
Nvidia first gpu geforce 256 released october 11th 1999, 23 years ago. While Radeon R100 was released in april 1st 2000, 22 years ago. So what GPU were u using 35 years?
@@fynkozari9271 the 1st ATI ega and vga cards came out in '87
It has been cool to see the give and take between them. Curious to see how the 7000 series turns out.
@@fynkozari9271 Roadhouse is correct. AMD bought ATI in 2006. Before that AMD made CPUs to compete with Intel. ATI made some great GPUs that could go toe to toe with Nvidia which was why AMD bought them out.
This is why I keep telling people the 6700xt is awesome. Me personally I'll be trying my hands at the gpu gods to see if i can get a 7900xtx before the scalpers take them all.
I thought the scalpers have their money tied to their stockpiles of 4080s, which they are unable to sell. At the very least the scalpers should be a lot more careful, especially with AMD cards, with the AMD market share having apparently dropped from 20 to mere 10%.
@@herrakaarme thats not gonna stop em from getting sought after producs
@@Shane-ur1rk Well, that's what they do for living, after all. I wish RX 7000 will be a huge success for AMD. From AMD's point of view it doesn't much matter if it's a scalper or a human buying the card, but with cryptards not buying, perhaps there will be enough for everyone, so that people don't even need to consider buying from scalpers.
@@herrakaarme its not a problem for AMD but its a problem for everyone else who wants to buy the card at MSRP. Theres some 4090 scalpers who have had 30 of them at once and being able to use bots to buy them before you even see them go in stock on the page is illegal in the UK
@@Shane-ur1rk Nobody's forcing anyone to buy from a scalper. If no one ever buys from them, they go out of business.
6700 xt all the way. the model you got is a very good one too with that big cooler. thats a really good card with 1440p headroom compared to the 3060.
I would have to pick the PowerColor red devil card personally. I have always went with their brand due to overall quality that comes with the GPU. The red devil brand is one of my favorite brands they make
you need a gpu with the power infused from satan
Honestly, as much as I like Nvidia, AMD has really good prices
So true
I hope they keep the Red Devil series for a long time. They always look great and perform well.
they showed off the red devil 7900 xt/xtx cards and the hellhound cards
@@donxx1206 WHERE!!??
@@donxx1206 I also really like the hellhound. Power colour makes really nice cards

I use Iray so I have only one choice when it comes to graphics card brands.
Interesting results, I was not expecting the RX6700 XT to perform better with RayTracing than the RTX 3060.
ME TOO.
me too
Not many people interested in raytracing. That is just a business for people to pay more. Well done.
My friends bought nvidia gpu for raytracing but , they are not using now.its taxing the performance. I bought nvidia only for some productive works, But wanted to by amd, but unfortunately its not best at it, amd which gives more for less. amd is catching up in many apps , hope I will get amd next time.
@@45eno Good point. In addition to that, the RX-6700 XT was designed to compete with the RTX-3070 Ti, which would show comparable
performance in gaming, except for RT. Monitors are another issue. I know that my RTX-3070 Ti can make a lot of frames in Doom 2016,
for example, but since my monitor can only display 144 Hz images, anything faster than that can't be seen. Fact is, I can't tell the
difference between 144 Hz and 100 Hz on my Dell 27" 2k monitor, so I run it at 100 Hz and just enjoy gaming.
The 6700XT was a good card @ MSRP, for the current going rate of $300-350 USD it smokes everything else in that price bracket.
This card performs essentially on-par with a 2080ti in rasterization. People were happy to pay $1000+ for those cards not too long ago.
Precisely why I chose it for my 5800X3D build I just completed!
What kind of system info are u using to show temps and usage while running games? Thanks
I’ve got 2 PCs I upgraded there gpus about 2 months ago now. One had a 5600xt, now has a 6650xt. The other had a 5700xt, now a 6750xt. Both made very big performance jumps.
Great comparison, just shows how much AMD has improved. 6700XT for the money is a great card!
The 6700XT was originally priced to compete with, and fell just a little shy of, the 3070. Just because AMD has slashed the price a year later isn't really an improvement.
It's more an acknowledgement that their position in the market means they have to lower prices to move their old products, while Nvidia (unfortunately) knows their market position lets them apply an Apple-like price premium.
'Moving swiftly on from my adult feelings' - there are exercises you can do to help with that :) I haven't had an AMD card since they changed their drivers from the equivalent of an index to the entire Encyclopedia Britannica many years ago - but I think it's time I revisited that. The 6700XT performed very well at that price point and, although I might go for higher specced models, it certainly places things in perspective. Thanks for another great video!
I’m glad you enjoyed it! I’ll go check out those exercises you speak of. 😂 Yeah, their drivers can still be a bit buggy but they’ve come a long way.
I gor a 6800 powercolor red dragon, it plays everything on ultra is quieter than my sons 3060 and cooler. I cant beleive how quiet the whole system is really all i can hear is the ssds clicking even when gaming and its watercooled. AMD ARE AMAZING
I've just built a PC each for my boy and I (our Xmas presents this year). Both of us have a 6750XT (AMD reference for my lad and MSI for me) paired with an AMD 5800X, I have to say I'm really impressed with it from my bit of testing so far.
I recently got this exact same 6700XT, I kept having second thoughts but I'm glad I got it, once I'm done with my finals then I will finally build my first ever PC!!! I cannot wait to enjoy games in 60 FPS and higher because I've been a console player my entire life, the Xbox One from 2013 which is what i've been using the past decade is locked at 30 FPS so games are not smooth at all. I had a question this GPU has 1 HDMI 2.1 port and 3 DisplayPort 1.4 which one is better? I'm thinking of using the HDMI 2.1
Watching you and Linus makes me think the GPU shortage wasn't caused by crypto miners, but by tech CZcamsrs.
It’s both
I love AMD and their stance in the last few years. Especially when it comes to non-gaming things and the drivers. Maybe there are more problems with AMD drivers, but at least they're open source so you can actually fix them yourselves should you be so inclined, and get the GPU working in non-windows or obscure environments. Like Raspberry Pi's... Which is insane but still... You can do it, while nVidia tried to make a few steps in the right direction, the drivers are still closed source and you have to wait for their devs to fix it or someone to make a custom driver which takes quite a while.
Team Green might have a few advantages, but the power draw of the new nVidia GPUs gives me a mild migraine thinking about how much you could potentially be killing your local power grid when trying to play at 4k. It's kind of sad.
As a owner of a Fury X on legacy drivers, the open source part of them saved me quite a bit. The performence gain I got from Nimitz community made driver really improved performence in all games for me.
Hey dawid! I was wondering, do you make your own music for the channel? Since I can see electric guitars in the background and whatnot, and most of the music you use indeed has electric guitar.
I managed to get get a 6700 XT for 430 euros last month (EU pricing, was a sale from 570) because 3060 Tis were (and still are) going for well over 550, so I feel like I made the right decision to pull the trigger on that.
Was thinking to choose between both cards but after this video I believe i will go for team AMD. The performance looks promising.
amd has nice perfomance, but amd has this thing that it crashes randomly, if you are playing whole day and switching games, your pc will tell you goodbye at some point

I just think from a value perspective AMD’s RDNA 2 and upcoming RDNA 3 cards have just been so appealing cause of the price to performance that these cards bring. Even though I upgraded to a 3060ti I kinda regret upgrading back when both AMD and NVIDIA cards were so expensive given how much value I would’ve gotten had I waited ;~;
RDNA2 are very appealing these days, IDK about mid-range since I don't follow that part of market, but you can get 6900 as low as in 650~750 USD range via newegg / amazon / ebay. The only downside is RT performance, but if your choice is 6800-non-XT or below performance class it doesn't matter anyway.
I think the 2x8-pin might come in handy for people like me who use MorePowerTool (MPT) to raise power limits beyond anything that normal factory settings + Afterburner (AB) would allow.
Say, I have my 6900XT set to use up to 350W if needed (factory default is 255W with up to +15% increase through AB resulting in maximum "normally" achievable 297W draw). I'd push for more, but I bought a reference design GPU with only 2x8-pin (they were quite cheaper at launch where I live) + the cooling is just enough for that power output (hitting 83~85°C when under fullest load for tens of minutes) and it might just hotspot throttle if I go any further + my sample has max stable clock at around 2700-2750MHz range (runs fine up to 2720, unstable when higher). With 350W power limit (MPT) and boost clocks set to up to 2660MHz (AB) it barely ever gets below 2500MHz in games (still hits that 350W ceiling sometimes, but with default maxed out PL (255+15%) it was really limited and often dropped to in between 2200~2300MHz, on very rare occasions below 2200 even). I think 6900 and 6950 can scale clocks up to around 400W power limit, maybe higher if you get a good silicon sample that is stable with higher values, so if given the chance it's best to opt for 3x8-pin configuration, at least I know I would when 7900XTXs hit the market.
I'd love to see what 6700XT Red Devil can do with, say, 300 watt PL and clocks set to max stable values versus 3060 max stable overclock (I think nVidia doesn't allow user-based power limit increase beyond factory settings - at least I never heard of MPT equivalents for them when I owned Titans, 1080 and 2080Ti).
The fact that you can get these new for that price and a used 3090 for less that £750 makes me very happy 😁
I've got the 6800XT version of the Red Devil card and I've got to say it's a fantastic card. You can easily push it to RTX 3090 levels of performance for more than 50 less wattage and much cooler temps (far less bloat and stress on the PCie slot too, being a marginally smaller and lighter card). Very happy to see everyone is finally appreciating how solid RDNA2 is.
Even the 6950XT can't be pushed to 3090 performance...
I bought a 6900XT in late November of 2021, can confirm, it does go above an beyond the 3090 imo, in some cases it ever reaches 3090TI levels of performance which is INSANE considering the price difference.

They uh, do, from people like you sucking them off endlessly on CZcams and Reddit.
Fanboys suck. Glad you're satisfied with your card though.
Man overboard! Nice recovery.
I recently got the 6900XT Red Devil Ultimate. I used to have a reference 6700XT. I have all the RGP in the PC red to match the Red Devil card. It looks very good IMO in my MSI Velox 100P Airflow which is a very good case for the €85 I paid for it on BF.
I'm always been an AMD fan, they keep their performances even higher with time. Currently I've a 5600XT and I'm fine with it.
wait, does this mean you already set the resizable bar for each cards? also, does your cpu support those? because I'm told to be able to fully experience it both gpu and cpu should be able to support it aside from the motherboard of course.
Red Devil cards are just next level. Check the temps in all the benchmarks ..... I have a 6800XT Red Devil and it's my favourite GPU of the entire last generation NV3000/RX6000.
I also have the same power draw on my asus tuf 6700xt. Hasn't gone above 180w. Normally sticks around 150w
