Don't get me wrong, the 7800xt is a hell of a card and if I am honest with myself I don't need a new one.hmmm, i game at 3840x1600 on a 6800XT, so...
But as mentioned above, the whole need for shiny things is too real!

I wouldn't bother with B-grade you have plenty of time to save a bit more between now and new year and a 9070XT is a proper upgrade that will make you happy.
It's a fair point but I have to say going from a 6800 non XT to the 7800xt was a pretty impressive jump in performance in games and overall the grunt the 7xxx series had was decent, they always had to play second fiddle in anything RT Vs NV but raster power was big.By the way i think the gen RX 7000 was a failure
RX 6000 was great, rx9000 are great. But RX7000 a failure for me
Hmmm, yeah that is the question that keeps going round my head....but I think the move, if financially sensible enough would be worth it as a wholeYou really won't notice the improvement purely for gaming tbh.
