Im very appreciative of what guys like Steve do, but i've been thinking that myself. As I watch the 15th build that Jay or Linus do for a video, that they are giving away or building for someone or whatever, and they happen to always have a 3080 or 3090 (or two 3090's) FE editions. Meanwhile, a couple months in, I still have not seen a site say anything other than "Out of stock". Im not blaming the youtubers, but man its frustrating.
@@MP-ij8wo let's say you have 20,000 units available world wide let's say we divide that number by the top 40 countries 1000 units for each of those top 10 so 1,000 cards then 500 units for the next top ten then 250 for the last 20, while it is a launch it's not one that realistic (the actual card limit is probably up on the 100,000 or more units) demand is just unheard of say 2-10 million waiting or somthing

I just grabbed a rx 6800xt from Xfx for 750€. For the current prices i made one heck of a deal and couldnt be happier. This will be paired with a r9 5900x which i got for 399€. I am very pleased with the prices i got these parts
I'm thinking about buying a 6800xt from XFX as well, I see that your comment was made a year ago. Did the card cause you any trouble after a year of use? Does it still work as intended?
This is such a weird feeling. For the first time in so SO many years I am actually having to compare AMD vs NVIDIA again for high end gaming. I almost forgot how having a choice of two equally good products feels. First Ryzen, now RDNA 2. I remember a few years ago a friend said "AMD will probably never catch up to Intel. Intel has three R&D teams working on current, next and the next after gen of CPUs, AMD can't afford that." Look where we are now.. what a time for PC enthusiasts.
Your reviews are so refreshing because you respect us - your viewers - enough that you're confident that you can present the benchmarks, provide a summary of the pros and cons, give an overall assessment, and leave the final decision-making to us without condescension. Not to mention you have the strictest benchmarking methodologies of all the major tech tubers.
Was on AMD website about a minute before release date, hit refresh immediately said sold out. Still had about 20sec till the actual release time. Good times
i made it all the way to purchase button and site crashed. The when i tried again, gpu still in cart and hit purchase again it took me to sold out page.
That was the "try to look like you don't feel like you're dying inside" final push a few hours before embargo lift! Glad that there is some appearance of energy. I always worry about showing any tiredness because people will think it's a reflection of the product, even though it's nothing to do with it. Thanks for not reading into it! Glad it looked that way!

@@PocketDelicious I love it so far, I'm getting just over 75FPS in Control with max settings and medium ray tracing at 1440p. With max settings and ray tracing off I get about 105. If you can get it for $579 I say go for it, it's a 1440p powerhouse. just make sure you have a good enough power supply!
I could refresh my page but the cards never showed up :( I was refreshing every 3 seconds and they showed up 10 minutes later all out of stock. Feels bad man
I like how you recommend to watch reviews from others as well at the end. Others, more popular (based on views) and in my opinion worse reviewers would never do that. Respect.
This video was really helpful. 6800 XT's were in stock at a more reasonable price than the 3080s in my country when I did my new build a couple weeks ago, and on the basis of this comparison I ended up getting one. I'm just glad I don't care about raytracing because it seems functionally useless on AMD's first stab at it (maybe next time).
I’m trying to shell out more money than a teenage boy getting into his first strip club and I still can’t get a PS5, XBX, 3080 or 6800XT. This is getting ridiculous.
Well, it's covid, so all those teenage boys go and buy PS5, XBOX, 3080 and 6800 XTs instead of going to strip clubs. It's understandable that competition would be fierce.
COVID made me appreciate my hardware more than I already do and I actually have decent specs (R7 3700X, 32GB RAM @3.2GHz, GTX 1080 Ti, and a 28” 4K 60Hz monitor). However, when it comes to these newer titles at 4K....I don’t mind turning down settings in order to maintain 60fps but when I have to start dialing down my resolution scaling, on top of turning down graphics, then it’s time for me to upgrade. I was hellbent on getting a RTX 3080 too but it’s VRAM was a big concern for me. 11GB is barley getting me by as is *(In certain titles).* So thank you AMD for bringing an alternative. But if Nvidia does officially announce a 20GB 3080, I may just have to jump back on-board with the green team....depending on the price!
@@ccrawford7164 naaa I doubt I'd actually need it for any reason. Upgraded from a GTX1070 so I'll wait for the same performance difference before upgrading again.
As a Nvidia guy Amd is looking really impressive especially with the tighter frequency while gaming. I have the Asus Strix 2080Ti OC card now and will probably build a all AMD rig when parts actually become available. Hats off to AMD welcome back to the GPU/CPU Wars.
@kim Jong-unsub true, but the 6800XT is literally $300-400 cheaper than the 3080 in Australia. I originally wanted to buy the 3080 for DLSS and RT, but that's quite a large price difference.
I managed to get in on preorder for gigabyte 6800xt (1049aud)at Mwave..havent even seen the reference cards on sale from amd anywhere...Niw after seing all of the reviews having second thoughts...
@kim Jong-unsub I'm not sure if you're American, but the fps/$ is significantly different for Australians. No, not every game supports DLSS and RT, but the games I am personally interested in playing do. I'm basing my purchase off the games I am going to be playing, not just general benchmarks of games I'm never going to play anyway.
Quake II RTX uses Nvidia Vulkan propietary extensions, which AMD doesn't implement. The new Vulkan Khronos RT extension (that is developed by 12 companies, including Intel, AMD and Nvidia) is almost ready, and the code for Quake II RTX is already prepared to use it as soon as the extension is finalized and shows up in the drivers (soon, maybe month or two from now). AMD could also implement to support the Nvidia extension, but considering very few titles use it, it is unlikely they will bother doing that.
@@movax20h Wrong. Quake II RTX uses Nvidia's proposed Vulkan RT extensions which got accepted and are now in Vulkan RT Draft (released March this year). Once the draft gets ratified (currently no changes are expected) it will be the official spec. Once it becomes official spec AMD will obviously support it.
@@andersjjensen Nvidias Vulkan extension is very similar to the VulkanRT draft, but it is not identical. There are a few subtle differences, that would ruin your day if you simply renamed your function calls.
So far, it seems to me that if ray tracing is not a consideration then the 6800 XT and the RTX 3080 seem to be on par with each other. Getting your hands on either card would appear to be a win for the consumer. Also, love the increasingly entertaining Rage Mode graphics!
I am currently binge watching RX 6000 series reviews. And almost all reviewers tries to shoot some tasty looking packshot intros for their opening scenes. Meanwhile: "Today we are reviewing the AMD RX 6800 XT video card..." says Steve holding stripped PCB in one hand and a fan array in the other... I simply love that guy. :D
Steve, you say it took you a couple hours to tune those clocks for games testing. Any chance that could be a video someday? The sort of processes you go through to make sure you get the best out of your clocks?
I'm guessing it only helps in the stability of the clock speeds because setting a higher clock speed (basically OC'ing) will need higher voltage thus higher wattage to have better stability. In short, it's just like maxing out the power % slider in MSI Afterburner lol.
That feeling when AMD gave Steve more of their new GPUs than they gave to your entire city :( Thanks for all the hard work on these reviews and other GPU videos, as someone building a new PC atm they've been incredible!
Something that no one mentions is that AMD released 4 major products this year. That is crazy hard, and I am without a doubt certain that a LOT of people will still not be happy with what AMD has done. Nvidia had to release only one product line and they blew it.
I like that RAGE MODE is about as useful as actually raging while playing a game, doesn't really do anything most of the time, and kinda just makes you a bit worse sometimes.
the review with wendell seemed slightly different. maybe because he used the raytracing games that were announced for amd lol. still though this is good. amd is indeed competitive .
The two, count them, two games tested here with ray-tracing are specifically RTX implementations. That is they are designed to work specifically with Nvidia's proprietary tech. Other games that use DXR (the vendor agnostic, Direct X ray tracing API) are, unsurprisingly, closer. Interesting that they would only choose RTX games to test ray tracing when DXR exists.
@@Pushing_Pixels Both of those games use DXR, you can argue if they're optimized for nvidia or not. Can't argue with the 3dmark DirectX Ray Tracing Benchmark and Port Royale, which AMD gets thoroughly trounced. Unless you're saying UL is on the take too?
A lot of driver updates within the year of this Review. I just ordered one today and a Alpha-cool water block, we need another update with all the Driver updates! I think AMD is starting to pull some where. I have been a Nvidia buyer for a long time and never thought I buy a AMD GPU.
After about a week playing on this 6800xt. Overclocking memory and undervolting is key to stability on this particular design. Rumor is it’s the same VRAM modules as 5700xt that are 1800mhz, these are already at 2000. I tried over clocking and it created stuttering. I left it at 2000, 1010mv, 2600 max - 2500 min Core clock. VRM set to fast timing and well all I can say is. She is a absolute under rated video card. This card makes my 2080s EVGA Black Gaming edition that is still water blocked look like a total POS. At this point in time for VR and all my Flat screen gaming. This card is a absolute dream… I run this on a OC’ed 10900k that is Mono-Blocked at 5.1ghz all core 1.34v LLC5 and crucial Ballistix 3600mhz CL16 32gig. Idk what I throw at this card that doesn’t stay locked at 144 fps 🤷♂️. My capture computer has a 5950x so when times is needed I’ll buy another Ryzen chip and throw the 6800xt in that. NOT SURE who AMD hired for their drivers and such but I LOVE THEM, last two months they been just blowing away numbers, reading forums and everything. Nvidia is sleeping and AMD on to something…
@@Rem_NL honesty, I find him entertaining and generally has a good format. I get to see things that I'll never afford being built and played with which makes it exciting and lets me dream 😜
Every other review I've watched so far: This cooler is soo much better! Steve: It's mediocre. Oh well, wasn't ever going to buy a reference card anyway :D
It's because of the Tjunction temperature behaviour with the overlock. The card doesn't handle it well since the Tjunction is already close to the max. I guess this is because of the use of the graphite pad combined with not good cold plate evenness. The average temps are ok but it's more complex than that.
@@yapweehow that's not how it works. The 30 series cards actually produce more heat with their higher power consumption. It's all about what cooling solution is chosen for each scenario.
Beware of fast talkers and overly complicated reviews with wording that is nothing more than bias using aftermarket cards! I would advise everyone to watch Hardware Unboxed Review. @
People need to understand that just because they sell out instantly it doesn't mean its a paper launch....... the demand for GPUs now is HUGE, and FAR bigger than the demand has ever been in the history of GPUs. The 3000 series demand was 10x higher than 2000 series. No matter what you do, you can't make enough to meet the demand in time, the stock situation with the 6800xt will be around the same as it is with the 3000 series... Also people thought they would actually get one for RRP is also stupid
I have such a weird way of watching GN videos, I watch the intro, then the conclusion, then I go back and watch separate segments in a specific order :D
Finally you are the first channel I see, who put Total War Three Kingdoms in to the test review for new GPU. I was missing this information for a long time as a Total War series player. Big thumbs up. THANKS for great content.
Very glad to see AMD with a competitive GPU again! Very exciting stuff. I really wasn't expecting much, considering their GPU performance over the last eight or nine years. Hope to see them continue on this trajectory. If we can see the same iterative performance uplifts we've seen with Ryzen, AMD GPUs are on track to become VERY formidable.
just glad that reviews and the "launch" are at the same exact time. at least we have plenty of time till we can actually buy them to make sure we want to!
@@superblitz2274 I wouldn't say it's "terrible" value. It straight up matches the 3080 FE in some games and at worst it is only 10-15% less FPS vs 3080. If you want RTX, then yes, that value does diminish quite a bit, but what are your RT capable alternatives besides 3080? A $1500 3090 or a 3070/2080 Ti, which perform worse. In my opinion, based on the preliminary benchmarks I've seen, the 6800 (non XT) is going to be the best performance/value GPU for the time being.
@@davidlegkodukh6969 Benchmarks say otherwise @ 4K. NVIDIA dominates with even 10GB. There's no proof of benefit of 16GB over 10GB (At least for today's games)
While I might not be buying AMD this time around, I am very excited to see them being so competitive. I am very, very excited to see what RDNA 3 will bring to the table.
@@testplmnb No good games have DLSS dude. Seriously, look it up, probably 4 good games have DLSS. It’s a software thing anyway, once AMD’s driver level DLSS equivalent are supported it’s not gonna matter anyway since it’s gonna apply to all games. I hope your 500 dollars more for RTX is worth it buddy hahahaha
@@enrique6335 I mean, it is better now. Nvidia has had way more time in the oven when it came to software support and extra features. Which means they are going to find themselves more favorable in most titles even from just a driver standpoint. Kinda what happens when almost the entirety of the GPU market is just NVIDIA for multiple generations back-to-back. So for AMD to come in and offer equal to better raw performance against NVIDIA's high end gpu's means that they've made some serious improvements to their architecture. I've never been one to praise AMD's graphics department, but the 6800xt is absolutely solid competition to NVIDIA, and when almost every PC title doesn't support Ray-Tracing+DLSS, a lot of people are going to find that few hundred dollars in savings in their wallets a compelling option. Even right now, as GPU supply has started to ease up, the lowest a 3080 goes for is $850 compared to the 6800xt's $700. For a lot of gamers right now that need to get a system upgrade and don't want to wait for next gen to most likely be out of stock yet again, AMD is a great option for graphics cards. And I couldn't imagine myself saying that before RDNA 2. They did it with their CPU department. I never thought my 2020 build would feature an AMD processor and yet they continue to push competition forward. Which even if you don't like their products, there is no denying their competition has benefited performances across all CPU and GPU brands. I for one am very excited for AMD. I'm not a fanboy, and will absolutely criticize them just as I do for other brands, but they are really coming back in this market with their new leadership and that is very nice. I hope this progress for them continues as RDNA 3 launches between now and early next year.
Thanks for this review. Just ordered a 3070. The combination of DLSS, CUDA and raytracing makes nvidia come out ahead this time around. Maybe next time.

As I watch the 15th build that Jay or Linus do for a video, that they are giving away or building for someone or whatever, and they happen to always have a 3080 or 3090 (or two 3090's) FE editions. Meanwhile, a couple months in, I still have not seen a site say anything other than "Out of stock". Im not blaming the youtubers, but man its frustrating.
@@MP-ij8wo let's say you have 20,000 units available world wide let's say we divide that number by the top 40 countries 1000 units for each of those top 10 so 1,000 cards then 500 units for the next top ten then 250 for the last 20, while it is a launch it's not one that realistic (the actual card limit is probably up on the 100,000 or more units) demand is just unheard of say 2-10 million waiting or somthing
@@MP-ij8wo The worse part is that us buyers are paying for their cards as well.
@@sagerdood OH SO YOU ARE THE PROBLEM/jk
You sir, are very lucky.
Not much to do specifically to this video, but you are basically my 1st choice for reliable and quality computer info on the web. Hats off to you guys!
I just grabbed a rx 6800xt from Xfx for 750€. For the current prices i made one heck of a deal and couldnt be happier. This will be paired with a r9 5900x which i got for 399€. I am very pleased with the prices i got these parts
I'm thinking about buying a 6800xt from XFX as well, I see that your comment was made a year ago. Did the card cause you any trouble after a year of use? Does it still work as intended?
Why do I believe “rage mode” is going to be added to a year end Tshirt?
Why wait? I'll buy one now if they make them large enough in tall sizes. I'll buy several.
Holy shit someone make this now
And nvidia should have a shirt that says you ragin bro?
Bro, do you even rage?
"Rage mode increases the aggression of the fan curve". I see what you did there.
This is such a weird feeling. For the first time in so SO many years I am actually having to compare AMD vs NVIDIA again for high end gaming. I almost forgot how having a choice of two equally good products feels. First Ryzen, now RDNA 2. I remember a few years ago a friend said "AMD will probably never catch up to Intel. Intel has three R&D teams working on current, next and the next after gen of CPUs, AMD can't afford that." Look where we are now.. what a time for PC enthusiasts.
These 3rd party testing + benchmarking are so important. Can't thank you guys enough for doing these.
Your reviews are so refreshing because you respect us - your viewers - enough that you're confident that you can present the benchmarks, provide a summary of the pros and cons, give an overall assessment, and leave the final decision-making to us without condescension. Not to mention you have the strictest benchmarking methodologies of all the major tech tubers.
1 Second in the GPU is already disassembled. 😂 This is why I love GN videos
If it got screws - Screw them... great mentality for an hardware enthusiast to live by!
Thats love to its viewers. Jay doesnt do the same because he thinks first on his personal build then on his viewers.
Mentioning Mantle brought me back to a very different time that feels like a decade ago.
A time when I wouldn't be caught dead with AMD parts in my gaming rig.
@@G.W._Cook I mean I had them in mine. But mainly cuz they had to dump the prices through the floor to encourage sales in mid range.
The nostalgia!
Isnt it amazing that the 6800 XT is 85% faster than the 5700 XT while only having 14% more memory bandwidth? That was an amazing engineering feat.
Wouldn’t it have more bandwith due to infinity cache.
Was on AMD website about a minute before release date, hit refresh immediately said sold out. Still had about 20sec till the actual release time. Good times

I actually got one. It went smooth as butter for me. After getting shafted on the 3080 and ryzen 5000 I was SHOCKED I got through

Is it just me or does Steve look like he has a bit more pep in his step in this review. Not reading into that. It’s just interesting.
That was the "try to look like you don't feel like you're dying inside" final push a few hours before embargo lift! Glad that there is some appearance of energy. I always worry about showing any tiredness because people will think it's a reflection of the product, even though it's nothing to do with it. Thanks for not reading into it! Glad it looked that way!

I like how you recommend to watch reviews from others as well at the end. Others, more popular (based on views) and in my opinion worse reviewers would never do that. Respect.
This video was really helpful. 6800 XT's were in stock at a more reasonable price than the 3080s in my country when I did my new build a couple weeks ago, and on the basis of this comparison I ended up getting one. I'm just glad I don't care about raytracing because it seems functionally useless on AMD's first stab at it (maybe next time).
I’m trying to shell out more money than a teenage boy getting into his first strip club and I still can’t get a PS5, XBX, 3080 or 6800XT. This is getting ridiculous.
Well, it's covid, so all those teenage boys go and buy PS5, XBOX, 3080 and 6800 XTs instead of going to strip clubs. It's understandable that competition would be fierce.
You and me both .
X570 tomahawk mobo ... out
12 core cpu in stock .
6800xt , out

COVID made me appreciate my hardware more than I already do and I actually have decent specs (R7 3700X, 32GB RAM @3.2GHz, GTX 1080 Ti, and a 28” 4K 60Hz monitor). However, when it comes to these newer titles at 4K....I don’t mind turning down settings in order to maintain 60fps but when I have to start dialing down my resolution scaling, on top of turning down graphics, then it’s time for me to upgrade. I was hellbent on getting a RTX 3080 too but it’s VRAM was a big concern for me. 11GB is barley getting me by as is *(In certain titles).* So thank you AMD for bringing an alternative. But if Nvidia does officially announce a 20GB 3080, I may just have to jump back on-board with the green team....depending on the price!
I feel your pain. Trying to give companies money and they laughing at everyone.
The saddest part - you can not even go strip club safely these days either.

Just a friendly reminder for my nerds here in Australia, the 6800xt is priced even better than most 3070's
@kim Jong-unsub true, but the 6800XT is literally $300-400 cheaper than the 3080 in Australia. I originally wanted to buy the 3080 for DLSS and RT, but that's quite a large price difference.
I managed to get in on preorder for gigabyte 6800xt (1049aud)at Mwave..havent even seen the reference cards on sale from amd anywhere...Niw after seing all of the reviews having second thoughts...
@kim Jong-unsub What exactly did they exaggerate? Everything seem in line with what have been shown.
@kim Jong-unsub I'm not sure if you're American, but the fps/$ is significantly different for Australians. No, not every game supports DLSS and RT, but the games I am personally interested in playing do. I'm basing my purchase off the games I am going to be playing, not just general benchmarks of games I'm never going to play anyway.
Here hoping that the same would also applied to Indonesia. The cheapest 3080 is $1015. Hopefully 6800XT would priced $750-850

@@jellybr3ak But boy do the One Armed Bandits love em!
Quake II RTX uses Nvidia Vulkan propietary extensions, which AMD doesn't implement. The new Vulkan Khronos RT extension (that is developed by 12 companies, including Intel, AMD and Nvidia) is almost ready, and the code for Quake II RTX is already prepared to use it as soon as the extension is finalized and shows up in the drivers (soon, maybe month or two from now). AMD could also implement to support the Nvidia extension, but considering very few titles use it, it is unlikely they will bother doing that.
@@movax20h Wrong. Quake II RTX uses Nvidia's proposed Vulkan RT extensions which got accepted and are now in Vulkan RT Draft (released March this year). Once the draft gets ratified (currently no changes are expected) it will be the official spec. Once it becomes official spec AMD will obviously support it.
@@andersjjensen Nvidias Vulkan extension is very similar to the VulkanRT draft, but it is not identical. There are a few subtle differences, that would ruin your day if you simply renamed your function calls.
So far, it seems to me that if ray tracing is not a consideration then the 6800 XT and the RTX 3080 seem to be on par with each other. Getting your hands on either card would appear to be a win for the consumer. Also, love the increasingly entertaining Rage Mode graphics!
I am currently binge watching RX 6000 series reviews. And almost all reviewers tries to shoot some tasty looking packshot intros for their opening scenes. Meanwhile: "Today we are reviewing the AMD RX 6800 XT video card..." says Steve holding stripped PCB in one hand and a fan array in the other... I simply love that guy. :D
Next time, you need voice over with growly voice for RAGE MODE.
Something like unreal tournament announcer
Should also be accompanied by death metal!
brutalzoid is a good voice actor for this
I'm in no rush. My current GPU is good enough until stocks wanna act right.
Steve, you say it took you a couple hours to tune those clocks for games testing. Any chance that could be a video someday? The sort of processes you go through to make sure you get the best out of your clocks?
18:39 You missed one "RAGE MODE" flying banner there.
Couldn't watch this with a straight face cause of the RAGE MODE effects LOL
Best effects ever kkkk
I'm guessing it only helps in the stability of the clock speeds because setting a higher clock speed (basically OC'ing) will need higher voltage thus higher wattage to have better stability. In short, it's just like maxing out the power % slider in MSI Afterburner lol.
That feeling when AMD gave Steve more of their new GPUs than they gave to your entire city :(
Thanks for all the hard work on these reviews and other GPU videos, as someone building a new PC atm they've been incredible!
Something that no one mentions is that AMD released 4 major products this year. That is crazy hard, and I am without a doubt certain that a LOT of people will still not be happy with what AMD has done. Nvidia had to release only one product line and they blew it.
On the German eBay someone starrted selling a printed 6800XT for JUST 530€.
Printed as in "printed with an ink printer".
What a genuinly nice guy. :)
Big thank you to your editor for the flying "Rage Mode" still makes me laugh. Flaming "Rage Mode" was the best.
Missed one at 4:25
I like that RAGE MODE is about as useful as actually raging while playing a game, doesn't really do anything most of the time, and kinda just makes you a bit worse sometimes.
It's there to teach a lesson
You've never played genji in overwatch in overtime...
Exactly, even calling it a gimmick is an overstatement. It's literally just a meme.
I like your profile picture too!
the review with wendell seemed slightly different. maybe because he used the raytracing games that were announced for amd lol. still though this is good. amd is indeed competitive .
u watched different reviews then? its same price for much less features and sometimes same performance.
The two, count them, two games tested here with ray-tracing are specifically RTX implementations. That is they are designed to work specifically with Nvidia's proprietary tech. Other games that use DXR (the vendor agnostic, Direct X ray tracing API) are, unsurprisingly, closer. Interesting that they would only choose RTX games to test ray tracing when DXR exists.
@@Pushing_Pixels Both of those games use DXR, you can argue if they're optimized for nvidia or not.
Can't argue with the 3dmark DirectX Ray Tracing Benchmark and Port Royale, which AMD gets thoroughly trounced. Unless you're saying UL is on the take too?
A lot of driver updates within the year of this Review. I just ordered one today and a Alpha-cool water block, we need another update with all the Driver updates! I think AMD is starting to pull some where. I have been a Nvidia buyer for a long time and never thought I buy a AMD GPU.
After about a week playing on this 6800xt. Overclocking memory and undervolting is key to stability on this particular design. Rumor is it’s the same VRAM modules as 5700xt that are 1800mhz, these are already at 2000. I tried over clocking and it created stuttering. I left it at 2000, 1010mv, 2600 max - 2500 min Core clock. VRM set to fast timing and well all I can say is. She is a absolute under rated video card. This card makes my 2080s EVGA Black Gaming edition that is still water blocked look like a total POS. At this point in time for VR and all my Flat screen gaming. This card is a absolute dream… I run this on a OC’ed 10900k that is Mono-Blocked at 5.1ghz all core 1.34v LLC5 and crucial Ballistix 3600mhz CL16 32gig. Idk what I throw at this card that doesn’t stay locked at 144 fps 🤷♂️. My capture computer has a 5950x so when times is needed I’ll buy another Ryzen chip and throw the 6800xt in that. NOT SURE who AMD hired for their drivers and such but I LOVE THEM, last two months they been just blowing away numbers, reading forums and everything. Nvidia is sleeping and AMD on to something…
The Jedi have been saying it for millennia, for anyone actually willing to listen!!! Rage Mode is not the true path to the force. :|

Every other review I've watched so far: This cooler is soo much better!
Steve: It's mediocre.
Oh well, wasn't ever going to buy a reference card anyway :D
Because Steve does noise-normalized thermal testing, which means he doesn't just crank up the fan to 100% and let it rip.
It's because of the Tjunction temperature behaviour with the overlock. The card doesn't handle it well since the Tjunction is already close to the max. I guess this is because of the use of the graphite pad combined with not good cold plate evenness. The average temps are ok but it's more complex than that.
wht do u expect? amd gpu is notorious for its heat
@@yapweehow that's not how it works. The 30 series cards actually produce more heat with their higher power consumption. It's all about what cooling solution is chosen for each scenario.

Finally you are the first channel I see, who put Total War Three Kingdoms in to the test review for new GPU. I was missing this information for a long time as a Total War series player. Big thumbs up. THANKS for great content.
Very glad to see AMD with a competitive GPU again! Very exciting stuff. I really wasn't expecting much, considering their GPU performance over the last eight or nine years. Hope to see them continue on this trajectory. If we can see the same iterative performance uplifts we've seen with Ryzen, AMD GPUs are on track to become VERY formidable.
This is why I come to this channel ! For the completely non bias reviews ! Stay True GN!
unbiased! shite..!
just glad that reviews and the "launch" are at the same exact time. at least we have plenty of time till we can actually buy them to make sure we want to!
I don't know how I never smashed subscribe before this. But it's mental seeing the channel hit 1.2 mil when they celebrated one mil like a month ago
SAM and upscaling solutions like DLSS... both still super early technologies but i'm loving this glimpse into the future!
Question: why I need to pay $50 less for 1080p or 1440p gaming while I can have a good performance in 4K for $ 50 more?
Good job, Steve.
Um for 6 extra vram which at 4K WILL DEFINITELY help in higher taxing games
@@davidlegkodukh6969 look at the benchmarks.
@@davidlegkodukh6969 yeah look at the benchmarks.6800xt seems terrible value
@@superblitz2274 I wouldn't say it's "terrible" value. It straight up matches the 3080 FE in some games and at worst it is only 10-15% less FPS vs 3080. If you want RTX, then yes, that value does diminish quite a bit, but what are your RT capable alternatives besides 3080? A $1500 3090 or a 3070/2080 Ti, which perform worse. In my opinion, based on the preliminary benchmarks I've seen, the 6800 (non XT) is going to be the best performance/value GPU for the time being.
@@davidlegkodukh6969 Benchmarks say otherwise @ 4K. NVIDIA dominates with even 10GB. There's no proof of benefit of 16GB over 10GB (At least for today's games)

One of the best things I've ever spent money on. I love this card.
Its great to see AMD pushing the high end performance and challenging NV.
While I might not be buying AMD this time around, I am very excited to see them being so competitive. I am very, very excited to see what RDNA 3 will bring to the table.
Competetive. You say -180% rtx performance compared to rtx+dlss is competetive.
@@testplmnb No good games have DLSS dude. Seriously, look it up, probably 4 good games have DLSS. It’s a software thing anyway, once AMD’s driver level DLSS equivalent are supported it’s not gonna matter anyway since it’s gonna apply to all games. I hope your 500 dollars more for RTX is worth it buddy hahahaha
@@plzitzjustmahcheezits909 Isn't that always the case with AMD, though?
"wait until it gets better", "next gen will be better"
@@enrique6335 I mean, it is better now. Nvidia has had way more time in the oven when it came to software support and extra features. Which means they are going to find themselves more favorable in most titles even from just a driver standpoint. Kinda what happens when almost the entirety of the GPU market is just NVIDIA for multiple generations back-to-back. So for AMD to come in and offer equal to better raw performance against NVIDIA's high end gpu's means that they've made some serious improvements to their architecture.
I've never been one to praise AMD's graphics department, but the 6800xt is absolutely solid competition to NVIDIA, and when almost every PC title doesn't support Ray-Tracing+DLSS, a lot of people are going to find that few hundred dollars in savings in their wallets a compelling option.
Even right now, as GPU supply has started to ease up, the lowest a 3080 goes for is $850 compared to the 6800xt's $700. For a lot of gamers right now that need to get a system upgrade and don't want to wait for next gen to most likely be out of stock yet again, AMD is a great option for graphics cards. And I couldn't imagine myself saying that before RDNA 2. They did it with their CPU department. I never thought my 2020 build would feature an AMD processor and yet they continue to push competition forward. Which even if you don't like their products, there is no denying their competition has benefited performances across all CPU and GPU brands.
I for one am very excited for AMD. I'm not a fanboy, and will absolutely criticize them just as I do for other brands, but they are really coming back in this market with their new leadership and that is very nice. I hope this progress for them continues as RDNA 3 launches between now and early next year.
We can't handle the rage. We need to leave that setting off.
Thanks for this review. Just ordered a 3070. The combination of DLSS, CUDA and raytracing makes nvidia come out ahead this time around. Maybe next time.
I really like how unbiased and true all of your great technical videos are, thank you so much for your hard work and honesty
"... was certainly enough to change the order in the charts." The most important thing for a feature to do :P
