    Paid $640 for the TUF version over a year ago, these prices are a G-up.

      Same but the Aussie Dollar has tanked and stock of 6800 cards have dried up.. Plus next gen stuff is both overpriced and nothing special.

      depends on if you want to fluff about in linux.

      if you're not, and don't want to shell out for nvidia, intel already released their version of ROCm in windows, and a 16gb 770 is like 10x higher it/s than 6800.

      It's alright if you want to inference LLMs, as the cheapest new card with 16gb vram. The a770 still doesn't have a library which supports full offloading afaik. You'll want to use linux though.

    Is this card good enough to run CSGO and Age of Empires

    • vid_ghost on 05/11/2023 - 17:30

      Its overkill for those two games.

      • FullTimeClown on 05/11/2023 - 17:31

          But you will get super high frame rates if that's something you want :) Also with Age of Empires its good to have a fast CPU and at least 32GB's of ram if you wanna use those unit cap mods to increase the amount of units you can have in game

              +3

              @FullTimeClown: Well the 6800 is 75% slower but way cheaper… your looking at $2000 for RTX4080 " both cards have 16Gbs of video memory
              https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/radeon-rx-6800.c3713

              I have a Asus TUF RX6800 under-volted to 940mv and under-clocked to 2000Mhz.. it runs max at 134w :)
              Everything i play runs at over 100FPS :) 1440p

                @vid_ghost: Hey can u send me your AMD adrenaline profile? I'm rocking a RX6800 too, are you playing around with vram too?

                • vid_ghost on 05/11/2023 - 19:56

                  @clanton: AMD Drivers

                  Go to - Performance / Tuning / Custom /

                  In GPU Tick Advanced control tick Enabled ( To change Voltage from % to a number ) and set the Voltage to 940 (mV)
                  Change the Max Frequency (Mhz) to 2000
                  Hit Apply in the top left.
                  And that's it your all done :)

                  Super simple/stable and doesn't crash.
                  No need to touch fan tuning or power tuning
                  No change on vram

                  After installing new drivers you may need to redo this. ( bit annoying but very simple to re-do ).

                  If you want to check power usage from before and after you can download FurMark to max out the GPU and check power usage with AMD Drives in Performance / Metrics

                  If you dont see GPU power usage listed you need to enable that in the tracking tab to the right side. ( Show/Hide ) options.. lets you customize what metrics to show.

                  If you want you leave the default Mhz at the 2150 the card will draw around 170w at 940mv :) at 2000Mhz it drops to 135w

                  There are videos on you tube that show how to undervult and overclock but i just wanted the lowest power draw

                @vid_ghost: If the 4080's performance is at approx 175% of the 6800, it would be more accurate to describe it as the 6800 performing at 57% of the 4080, or 43% slower.

                If the 6800 was 75% slower than 4080, then the 4080's performance would be approx 400% of the 6800, not 175%.

                57% of the performance at 33% of the price is good.

                25% of the performance at 33% of the price would be… Not so good.

      They used the same coolers and PCB from the 6800XT to save money on redesign

      I would think about grabbing the 7800XT below at $829 " no such thing as a future proof GPU. all those people who purchased RTX3090's will confirm that

      You're asking if you should buy this or a $1600 card? Have you considered there might be other cards in between these price brackets as well, with varying price-to-performance ratios.

    • MA87033 on 05/11/2023 - 19:15

      What are your needs?

      • bakery on 05/11/2023 - 19:57

          if you are gaming at 2K or below, 4070TI is more than enough for anything you need.

          If you are gaming at 4K, then i would consider a 4080 if there is a decent deal, then only if there is a big enough price difference (300+) get a 7900xtx.

          The reason why i support N card is:

          1. if you are gaming at very demanding title, like RT. Then N card performs better with RT. and DLSS is much better than FSR.

          2. if the game you are playing doesnt support RT or DLSS, then 7900xtx will be faster than 4080 but most likely it wouldn't be very demanding then. so getting those extra 10% FPS is not important.

          3. for less demanding/old title, no one cares about 150 or 200 FPS. Nv wins bec their card consume less power and hence produce less heat/noise.

          In the end, only place AMD wins is when there is a HUGE title which doesnt have RT or DLSS which in 2023 and future sounds impossible.

          4070 is a decent choice too if the price is good (2K and below) comparing to TI.

          At 4K, 4070 TI will struggle a bit at the most demanding "future" titles, bec of that 12GB VRAM. so 4K you really have to consider 4080, but you might as well wait for 4080 super coming next year then. Unless there is a very good deal for it, I would only consider buying sub 1600 for 4080.

          I will say only consider AMD if price wise there is a major advantage. (this is coming from a 7900xtx buyer with regret, i had choice to pick up 4080 at same price, but didn't go for it)

        • netsurfer on 05/11/2023 - 20:26

          Slightly different return policy during the initial period. Change of mind does incur a return label cost (that's different to Amazon AU based products). If you can prove it is faulty, then I reckon Amazon AU will pay for the return postage.

          For example, when I return an SSD because the SSD maker did a component swap in the one I received, Amazon doesn't consider it as "faulty" because the listing doesn't guarantee or specify the controller or the NAND type so it was deemed a change of mind return.

    Pretty expensive for a 6800. At that point you might as well spend the extra $145 and get a 7800XT.

    Either that or you could go the used route and get an ex-mining 6800 for $469 with discount code https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/256104619951?hash=item3ba1065faf… which has a one year return to base warranty. They have a couple of other models that are a little more expensive, and also a 6800XT for $579 (only 3 months warranty).

  • DecoAus on 06/11/2023 - 13:03

    I paid this for a 6800XT last December on eBay, can't believe prices are still (profanity) and so glad I pulled the trigger rather than holding.

  • abjsdhasehasee on 06/11/2023 - 13:39

    OP - price is now - $675.75

    The 6800 has a lower power draw vs a RX7700XT when:
    At idle
    Playing video content
    Gaming
    Under clocked
    and running dual monitors at 60hz ( 3-7w ) and 144hz+ (20-30w)

    The RX7700XT / RX7800XT 7900XT/XTX must have a hardware bug in the chaplet design because they haven't been able 100% fix these power issues
