Watch's AMD's Radeon RX 6000 Series Reveal Here
Later today, AMD plans to showcase their Radeon RX 6000 series of graphics cards, the strongest graphics cards that the company has ever produced. AMD's new RDNA 2 architecture will power these GPUs, the same architecture which powers next-generation gaming on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5.
With RDNA 2, AMD's promising to deliver huge increases in both performance per watt and raw performance terms. RDNA 2 will also feature a tonne of new hardware features, including hardware-accelerated ray tracing, Mesh Shaders, Variable Rate Shading and more.
What remains unknown are the exact specifications of AMD's RDNA 2 lineup, the exact performance levels that they will offer, their pricing structure and the software solutions that AMD will use to back up their products. AMD needs to win on all fronts to reclaim a position within the high-end GPU market, especially now that Nvidia has launched its Ampere series of graphics cards.
AMD's "Where Gaming Begins Part 2" stream will start at 4 PM GMT. The stream is embedded below for those who want to watch it live of after the stream concludes.

Nice to see such a competitive product, not quite going to cancel 3080 but depending on reviews I might order 6800 XT alongside and keep the card which arrives first.Quote
Looking like the 6800XT for me unless the price conversion sucks, but tbh the prices were a little bit off from my expectations but not massively, but the 6800XT seems to be the best pick of the 3 for me, it was at least spot on with what i expected.Quote

6800 is more. However, the 6800 has 16gb so is much more viable as a 4k card especially going forward. So the price doesn't really surprise me. It's basically slightly faster than the 3070 and has double the VRAM. However, that is what holds the 3070 back at 4k already, so I would rather pay a little more and feel safer when the next gen console drivel drops.Quote
6900XT sharing the 300W TDP with 6800 XT while rocking the same clock speeds raises questions about binning and as such, availability. Though I suspect AMD has followed 3000 series launch closely and wouldn't want to find themselves in a similar PR catastrophe.Quote
