PowerColorRed Devil AMD Radeon™ RX 6800 XT Gaming Graphics Card with 16GB GDDR6 Memory, Powered by AMD RDNA™ 2, Raytracing, PCI Express 4.0, HDMI 2.1, AMD Infinity Cache

So far the card has been phenomenal performance wise. I've been playing everything at 1440p ultra locked 144fps at around 68 to 72c. It's a monster. I have it paired with a R7 5800X (OC) and 32GB DDR4-3200. Next gen definitely won't be seeing me. I won't be needing anything for a few good years and I'm glad I'm not out there gambling on the future of the market anymore, especially with the way the world is looking currently. The build quality is amazing. Metal everywhere, no plastic, and it looks great. I DO have a couple gripes with the card though, and I'll point them out below:1. No Support Bracket In-Box: This is a premium product. It's definitely priced as such ($770 before tax), and it's an extremely big card. It's long, it's thick, and it's pretty heavy due to all the metal. There's no way in hell this card WON'T sag. I'm talking PRISON sag. How the hell can you package the 6900XT variant with a bracket but not this one, when they use the exact same cooler (if I recall correctly). Even if they don't by some chance, you still made the damn thing so you KNOW it needs support badly. I had to create a makeshift support stand out of toilet paper roll cores and masking tape, and it looks pretty stupid but it works. After spending over $820 in total for a GPU, it's a kick in the balls to have to dip again to get a bracket. You guys are wrong for not including your own bracket.2. Coil Whine: First time in my life I've had a card with coil whine, and I've had a few. Luckily it's not loud. When the side panel is on I can't hear it, and my desktop sits on top of my desk right next to me, but it's there. I hear it when I remove the side panel while it's on running demanding games. I hear it pretty clearly. It's annoying as hell lol. Now I see why people go crazy over it. Thankfully like I said mines can't penetrate the side panel so I'm right as rain.3. Connector Placement: This is the first GPU I've ever seen where the PCIe cables go in upside down. I've never seen this before and it threw off my cable management completely. I had to twist my cables in a way they weren't meant to twist so that they could go in upside down and now it looks ugly and hits the glass panel while routing to the left. You can feel the tension in the cables. I absolutely hate it, but with performance like this you get over things pretty quickly lol.It replaced my Sapphire 5700XT Nitro+, which was still an utter beast even with today's games, and the performance leap is nothing short of enormous. Now I have a great card as a backup and an excellent card slotted in. I wanted the Nitro+ version of the 6800XT but the prices are goofy as hell. This is my first PowerColor product and so far I must say, the quality feels like the stuff I'm used to with Sapphire. Not quite as high, but a very close second.

This card is an amazing gpu for almost every gamer, with the large pool of vram and the gpu horse power to back it up, it will demolish any game you throw at it, at 1440p ultra wide (1440:3440) it will keep a the frame rate well above 144hz with high and ultra settings in games like war zone and black ops. Haven’t tried it a 4K yet but will update. Now the down side, the ray tracing is unfortunately lacking, especially in full path traced games like Minecraft RTX that averages of 20 FPS, it does okay for ray tracing for the new call of duty games but too much of an impact for competitive gaming, great for the campaign though. Additionally it lacks dlss or some kind of competitor to boost the frame rate at high resolutions like the nvida cards, however it’s not as important as only a small number of games support it.Final gripe is it is huge it is a full 3 pcie slots high and almost didn’t fit in my case because it is extremely long length, it fit in my lian li tu-150 but I wouldn’t recommend putting it in oneTLDR: amazing card for high frame rate modern AAA gaming, however leaves something to be desired for ray tracing profomance, also no dlss competitor and the card is massive

I went with this card mainly because of the 200$ off I got for the card which dropped it down to 560$ for me, which was an awesome deal especially given that MicroCenter by me still had them at over 870$ at the time.I'm running an Acer gaming monitor at 2560x1440, .5ms, 170Hz and 3000:1 ratio. I'm running everything at ultra setting with no issue at all. Forza Horizon 5 looks amazing along with GR Breakpoint and every other game in my Steam library that I've played so far. No regrets in getting this one. At. All.

I absolutely love this this GPU! It handles everything I need and more. With this in my PC setup, I can run every game I throw at it at 1440p "2K" with no problems what so ever! Almost every game I play I get over 200 FPS Easy! The highest demanding Game I have is Cyberpunk 2077 and that I can run Optimized Graphic Setting at 1440 and get around 100 FPS consistently. When I keep these setting and turn on Ray-Tracing I end up getting around 65 FPS. That is completely playable and it looks amazing but I don't really ever play with it on. As I prefer the more frames. I know most RX6800 TXs are sold out but if you can find a new one I would still recommend it or if you can find a good price / good condition used one!

The media could not be loaded. There's something with amd cards that I still can't get my head over. Noise level, high temps, and coil whine. Honestly I would love to just stuck to nividia cards. But and theres a huge BUT! The price is more enticing than the green team in terms of price to performance and budget of course.And the Green team has always been overated of course, like why aren't they. Their performance and cooling is great and ray tracing. I've never had any hiccups with nividia cards but they are just so pricey nowadays and I only game. Plus this was a needed upgrade from my 6gb 1060. I had the worst with my first GPU the xfx rx590 Fatboy. It overheated like crazy, blacked out whenever I ran a triple A game title, and jeez does it get hot. Horrifying experience but so far I would say this card is okay like you are really getting price to performance.My tips are get a good airflow case, probably sometime from fractal, and some fans of course. Maybe noctua or bequiet fans, it's not crazy loud but the coil whine does ruin my mood at times, especially I never knew that it will whine when scrolling through a browser.Overall great card for gaming especially since I have a 144hz 34in ultra wide 1440p monitor. It's amazing although needs some tuning through the amd Radeon program. Another part I like is easy tuning and overclocking for more FPS.
