So yeah, 100% with you that these prices are faaar away from being midrange, but the hardware inside is midrange. They are just about 200$ above sane prices for these cards. Same thing really goes for the entry level (ie xx60 cards) that now cost the same as midrange cards.

@@DeadNoob451 yeah, in terms of silicon there is currently a 100, 102, and 104 die. They will likely make 106, 107, and 108 dies, so in that sense the 104 die (and therefore the RTX 3070) is mid-range. That being said, the 100 die is nearly exclusively used in massive data centers, making the 102 die the consumer top-of-the-line. That would leave the 106 as the mid-range, which I believe is much closer to where the mid range should be.

When RTX 3000 series was launched, I thought about how AMD going to compete against the mighty performance of the 3070 and 3080 cards BUT AMD not only complete against these cards but even did better and the same price range. HATS OFF AMD! I feel so proud of you guys! You guys are truly game-changer. You seem to be fighting and winning on two different fronts (CPU and GPU). This is truly remarkable. WOWWW!

And what's wrong with that VRAM? Considering Nvidia already wins in 4k with lower VRAM, means AMD gonna have trouble in reality. What is the point of that 16GB of VRAM if that is too slow in case VRAM requirements raises? It is the truth since ancient times of Geforce 4, VRAM speeds are much more important then VRAM capacity and actual true VRAM usage is really low (most of it is used as caching, and that is why sometimes games pull out high numbers as vram usage). Heck, developer tools of flight simulator 2020 on max settings use max 4GB as "usage" although allocated as caching is much higher. Really at worst in future Geforce users will have to slighty drop textures from ultra to high and that is where problems will end, while Radeon big navi users won't be able to take advantage of that ultra textures anyway due to low speed of vram. Only truly future proof card here is overpriced 3090 because it has higher VRAM and higher speed vram (wider memory bus, gddr6x higher rated then 3080).

@@piotrj333 if you werent looking at ancient times and instead to future, you would know for sure that games will demand a shit ton more of vram in the next year with nextgen games. 3080 was a quick cashgrab and a fuckup for nvidia, if amd can remotely answer dlss, they win, 3080 will be obsolote at 4k in about a year. You will need to upgrade to the next series but you can get a long mileage from amd cards thanks to the huge vram advantage.

I expect the same case with RTX 3070 and RX 6800 at 1440p resolution at 4K, you shouldn't get neither of the cards anyway as they are not made for 4K Gaming.

@@tommihommi1 On the other hand, this can also be said for the 6800 series, if supply is low, there's no point selling them at MSRP, the only point of MSRP is to not display a bad image in the reviews, but the actual price will obviously differ based on supply and demand. For instance, in Germany, you can buy a 3080 from time to time at 1000 euros from a few retailers, imagine if Huang announced the 3070 at this price from the get go, people would have been mad. The same happened with Vega 64, there was only a handful of stock for the MSRP of 499$, the other was sold much higher due to the cryptocurrency boom.

It looks like I might be switching to AMD and there RX 6800 because of the more VRAM. But before my decision is final, I will want to do some testing with my 1070 to see how well it does with the games I play on my new monitor!

I feel it uses the most GPU resources to deliver one of the least noticeable effects, other than a couple games. Once they're more common a retest would be in order.

I know, the reviews are so much all over the place with the AMD launches that I'm seriously starting to doubt the integrity of some channels. Also as Linus pointed out, AMD is claiming that DLSS is a garbage feature, yet they are developing their own version of it. With the consoles and AMD as well supporting raytracing now, I'm gonna go ahead and predict that raytracing in games is going to be a lot more common. When only nVidia was doing it, yeah okay it makes no sense to put it in your game. When everybody else is doing it as well, well now it makes a ton of sense to offer raytracing in your game.

The 6800xt on one regular website Scan shown a £599.99, but the buy button wasn't there, but it said 6 people were buying it, soon after the price vanished, but said 19 people were buying it, at no time did a buy button appear from the 2pm update on the site, a little later it said 7000 people were watching the product. The other site Ebuyer and Overclockers didn't have stock or a price of the 6800 or xt, and Ebuyer has removed the XT altogether just leaving four variants of 6800 still no pricing. Personally it feels suspicious that three big sites updated to show the cards but never posted prices (overclockers now have prices no stock) or had a buy button, I do feel though that they're holding them to inflate the price like what happened to the nVidia cards.

In particular, your Metro: Exodus result seemed way different than both Jay and Kyle's at 1440p. Again, not saying your results were inaccurate; it's more that I'm curious if the differences in Hardware configurations between each of you is enough to account for the variance, or if there's something else that's causing the difference.

I said this in a previous video and I'll say it one more time. Your reviews are as good as they come, however you cannot do the 18 game average calculations the way you are doing them, it is statistically a mistake. You cannot average frame rates across different games when they can vary greatly with some games having averages of about 30 fps and others in the hundreds. What you should do is take the percentage difference for every title (say 10%, 14%, etc) and then average those differences. Even if the end results turns out to be very similar between both methods, you are using an incorrect way of presenting data. I'll give an example below: GPU1 - game 1 - 40fps GPU2 - game 1 - 50fps Difference 25% GPU1 - game 2 - 600fps GPU2 - game 2 - 700fps Difference 16.6% Using your method you would have: GPU1 - 2 game average - 320fps GPU2 - 2 game average - 375fps Difference: 17% Using the method I describe Average of 16.6% and 25% = 20.8% So even using common sense and not knowing anything about statistics which results makes more sense? You have a 25% lead for 1 game and a 16.6% lead in another game, it would make sense that the conclusion is that the average lead is right about the halfway point so about 20-21%. It makes no sense to think that if one card has a lead of 25% and 16.6% then to conclude that the total lead is 17%.

I am moderately excited about the Radeon Cards. The 6800xt sold just as quick as the RTX cards so there are the same kind of shortages but the 6800xt sold out at the price of the cheaper 3070s around 880 Euros. So I am hopeful that when these stocks finally settle, most likely in the first quarter of next year, I will be able to get a 6800xt for under 900Euros.

For real though, the fact is Nvidia is focusing heavily on compute, especially AI, to the fact that their gaming card is pretty much a compute-heavy card that being bottlenecked at a resolution below 4K, just like the old GCN. While AMD is separating their GPU between RDNA that focus on gaming and CDNA that focus on compute. Of course, we shall see.

as shown in this review almost every new game the just recently came out runs incredible on the RX 6800/XT Gpu's that is the benefit of being the GPU on the new consoles and expect it to only get better from here as more and more games will start utilizing AMD gpu's a lot more better and games will also start to use more and more Vram AMD having 16GB of Vram on their high end stack means your future proofed. Also expect Nvidia to convince more and more devs and publishers to use their Nvidia worx tech so expect a few upcoming games that will gimp AMD performance just as they have done for well over a decade now.
