AMD graphics cards and 3d modelling.

[SniperSmithy]

Hi all, very excited to see that so far it looks as if AMD have pulled off a good coup. I've previously used NVidia cards for a mixture of gaming and 3d modelling and wondered if the AMD cards are good in this respect, since they won't support things like CUDA and OptiX. I think there are open source equivalents for AMD architecture, but I was wondering if anyone here has real experience of the Radeon cards in a production use case, such as Max or Blender.

Thanks for reading.

I'm using windows 10. The PC I want a card for is my secondary PC, I have an older (much more costly) rig for day to day work use.

I would just like to use this on occasion when I'm tied down by a lengthy render. It'd mainly just the pc I use for gaming and entertainment use, so the 3090 is a bit too expensive for me right now and I was a bit concerned about 3080 vram as I do fairly regularly exceed 10gb on my renders, although I can work around this, it's not ideal which is what's got me looking at the 6800XT or 6900XT.

Thank you for the replies so far!
