Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Should be $399, period. Direct 5700XT replacement, +28% perf. Would have been received so much better, and help with gamer mindshare.
IDGAF that its sold out, lots of ppl with more money than sense buy 3090 for $3K doesn't mean ppl with actual sense should be paying for such rip off hardware.
28% faster than the 5700xt at a 20% markup. Whatβs the point of generational improvement if you must pay more?
This product confuses me. Who wouldnβt just go for the 3070 or 3060ti. I understand theyβll sell regardless, but itβs just really weird positioning - even more so than the 6800.
Wow pretty disappointing results. I would not pay more than 400 for it. (in a world where MSRP actually exists). What is the incentive over a 3070 seriously?
I think they would have put 400$, if not for the mining situation, but reality MSRP for RDNA2/Ampere is vacuum.
P.S Just checked in my country 6700XT, cost 200/300$ less than 3060ti/3070

Oh if it isn't our old friend 'zero price/performance improvement from gen to gen"
Wow, it is in a bad position. Shouldve been 400 dollars as the 5700XT.
I am actually quite impressed with the product. 2080Ti-ish level performance, minus the RTX feature-set, for "$480".
Sure, it doesn't shatter the competition. The 3070 is indeed a more compelling product, and so is the 3060Ti, but I don't think you could go wrong with a 6700XT. I would like it to be priced at $450 instead, and maybe have a game or two bundled (a practice we saw AMD adhering to for all RX5000 cards), but still, I think the price is decent enough and the product itself is very appealing for 1440p gaming.
As we know though, it won't be available, it won't be priced at MSRP plus AIB partners will charge outrageous premiums for their fancier custom cards.
Nevertheless, the 6700XT is, at least in theory, a good product.
Ahh yes. Hardware Unavailable.
