Today's new is that an engineering sample of the AMD RX6800XT pretty much destroys the RTX 3080 in synthetic benchmarks. Remember this is an engineering sample and the released product will likely be a little faster. The 6800XT is on Navy 21 die with 72 cu's. It is Navi 21 's 2nd best sku. The 6900XT is rumored to be equal or better than the RTX 3090 for considerably less money. It wll alll be revealed on Wednesday October 28th. All I can say is Gensen is shitting bricks now.
Don’t allow yourself to get overhyped on the back of rumors. It’s best to expect the worst and then be surprised if it ends up being amazing instead of expecting the best only to be disappointed if it can’t reach those lofty heights.
