6700 XT Owners Thread

I was prepared to bite for £689 on a Nitro+ from OcUK a day or so ago... what a sad state of affairs we all now live in!

Didnt pay much more than that for my 6800xt nitro+ and over £100 less for my 6700xt Nitro+ Thats a lot!
 
Ya that's a bit high for a 6700xt considering a 3070 is faster let alone dlss etc...

3070's are going for £799 judging by 1 retailer this morning.

I've been watching 6700XT cards come and go pretty much all week, all floating around the 799 mark. Currently all still in stock, wonder why?

Because at that price its basically 6800xt money. :D
 
6800XT last time i saw was fetching over a grand, silly money.

I've had mine about 4 weeks and paid under 1k new for it (sapphire nitro+ 6800xt) I think I paid 560 for the 6700xt (also a nitro+). Knocking on the door of 800 is basically £100 shy of new 6800xt money. Id take the 6800xt over the 6700xt for £100 more every time. I love my 6800xt but haven't been massively impressed with the 6700xt. I mean it's a good card but perhaps having the bigger brother takes the shine off a bit.

I'd take a Nitro+ 6800XT right about now, funds available but holding on. Hopefully a forum deal of some kind soon, maybe?

We can hope - I got lucky and begged and pleaded until somebody came through and offered me one :) Problem is... Now im hunting for the 6900xt Nitro+/Toxic. But only at the right price lol.

I paid £450 for the 6700 XT Fighter and I am mostly happy with the price/performance all things considered. I don't think the Nitro+ is worth an extra £110 for practically indentical performance. Prices are absolutely nuts though and I was very lucky to be on the right sight at the right time to get a 3080 FE at MSRP of £650.

Before I got lucky with the 3080 I was very close to paying £850 for a Nitro+ 6800XT but ultimately felt I would rather wait than pay a scalper. It turned out to be the right decision in hindsight but I do understand how people end up paying the vastly inflated prices.

if you get a 6900xt and need to offload the 6800xt let me know :)

ya lots of people look at bang for the buck performance - so 450 for a 6700xt performance is good considering the house price thing lately. 1500~ for 3080 scalpers prices is well up to the individual but maybe if you factor in hashrate etc ...

I could have had the fighter for rrp but for me the Nitro is the better card, not in terms of clocks necessarily but build quality, worth the extra 100 is debatable but the nitro+ cooling solution on these cards makes them very quiet and I value that. The cooler on the 6700 and 6800xt is basically the same apart from the 6700xt has a few less heat pipes than the 6800xt.

if you get a 6900xt and need to offload the 6800xt let me know :)

Im already sitting on way more GPU's than I need. The 6700xt is back out of the wifes machine and in the box for now as Radeon 7 has some serious performance advantages for compute and also some mining while I am not using it. I will offload the 7 at some point but I really like that card and they are going for absolute silly money second hand (much more than I paid) but I just cant seem to let it go :)
 
Had a look at eBay for a laugh, and there are an alarming number of Sapphire Nitro's up. One has to wonder how many of them were bought here...

One of the ads I think it was facebook even shows the box with the haribro and the bubble wrap that Ockers uses (think the ads is gone or he changed the pics dont see it anymore)
