Looks nice. Is that a 6900xt or what?

#

Yeah 6900xt. I was gunna go for 6950xt but this was £500 and I’m running a pcie3.0 board so would only be bottlenecked

#

Just a little upgrade for now plus I really like the oc formula style

#

oh the 6950xt is limited by 3.0 speeds?

pearl bane Dec 18, 2022, 9:03 PM

#

Yes as is the 6900

Probably not more than about 3% at most though. Gen 3 x16 is still pretty decent.

#

Yeah, I’m still thinking about a 5800x3d and x570 tho

#

Be a nice upgrade from a 9700k

pearl bane Yeah 6900xt. I was gunna go for 6950xt but this was £500 and I’m running a pcie3...

would it not have been better to wait for 4070 series

#

which might come around 500 as well

#

might

#

we don't know for sure.

#

considering that the 3070 is 500usd, I'd expect the 4070 to be more.

I’ve no interest in giving NVIDIA any more money

understandable, i recently upgraded from 3070 to 6900xt and now regret it

#

their drivers are simply superior

#

and more stable

#

I think the whole AMD drivers bad sort of rep is slowly changing tbh

#

They’ve improved a lot
