Nope. I don't buy £400+ dGPUs. Its the same with CPUs,hence why I have a Ryzen 7 3700X and not a Ryzen 7 5800X.
Below £400,even historically adjusted for inflation I have never spent anywhere that much on any single component. The only component I can see myself spend that kind of money on is a monitor,since they last for 5~10 years. But,OTH I don't really care as much if I have to drop details or have to play single player games at between 30~60FPS. I literally completed most of Cyberpunk 2077 at qHD at around 30FPS,as I was getting in the ealy 40FPS range at 1080p.
Edit!!
Even if I was to stretch my budget,we all know the RRP is a load of BS anyway and is false to "pretend" the GPU is cheaper than it is. Expect it to be another stealth price increase over the 5700XT.

The RX6700XT is already a bit overpriced at its RRP,and its street price and availability is going to end up even worse than the Nvidia GPUs. Also essentially this is an overclocked version of the GPU in the PS5(which is also 40CU but has a few disabled for yield purposes).
Power effiency seems to have gone backwards compared to the other RDNA2 GPUs too as it seems to have been pushed to the edge. Let's hope the RX6700 is a better balance.

Yep,and the XBox GPU seems to be somewhat more powerful,so it makes me wonder whether its actually faster than an RX6700XT. It will be interesting to see what happens in the next year or two,when developers actually start using the new generation consoles as the main development platform. ATM,most titles seem to be reheated versions of the ones made for the previous generation.
PS5 appears to be RDNA1.5 and the XBox is RDNA2. Apparently both might also some aspects of the RDNA2 successor in them too.
The problem is that laptops with dGPUs and many prebuilt PCs from large companies such as Dell,don't seem anywhere as affected in pricing. So I think PCMR and PC part retailers are being given the short end of the stick.
Its why I am surprised a 56CU GPU hasn't been released because the XBox Series X has one and its RDNA2.
That is my main worry especially with the top dollar being asked for these GPUs.
Not in the rest of the world. The tarriffs applied are a US import tarriff.
Thanks!
