Seriously hoping my graphics card does not die anytime soon.
£1699, now I need to figure out best way to offload the 3060Ti with out getting scammed!
And you'll probably get the cost of the 6900xt back from the ti on ebay, or close to it
Haha, true.

The Liquid Devil is available again.
Managed to find one shop with some Sapphire Nitro+ 6900XT SE stock in stock at not entirely horrible price in last weekend and ordered one at Monday.
Sure would have preferred to buy card of half the price level, but lower models have even more bloated prices and availability in class of honest bankers/lawyers/politicians.
And at least it has enough memory to not start falling over instantly, if games start picking up use of memory following new consoles.
(Nvidias would have been way worser value in that)
And should have about normal price Ryzen 5900X coming hopefully in next week.
Now if those 32" 144Hz 4K monitors would just proceed forward from paper announcement level.
Heck, even 27" LGs are about impossible to get, even already old HDMI 2.1 lacking 27GN950.
8+ years old Dell U3014 could use replacing into modern refresh rates and 2560x1440s are at most side step as downgrade for non gaming/movies use.

Ordered one but having buyers remorse.
Up to you but 2 grand is a mental price.
It kind of is.....but it was the new binned chip but very close to canceling it

Yeah if you look at the actual RRP of the card it is a halo product and marked as that.
Dont think there is any scalping going on there.
So I got a little too lucky. I now have a box with a Gigabyte RX 6900 XT Aorus Master and a box with a Asus RX 6900 XT ROG Strix LC. Which one do I keep and which one do I return?
I couldn't resist the Strix, because it was cheaper (weirdly) than the Gigabyte. The list price of both cards have now risen significantly here in Denmark, but the Gigabyte is still about 10% pricier, even though its air cooled.

How much was the strix LC?
The current Danish msrp incl. 25% vat is 14.499dkr (£1695) for the Strix LC and 15.999dkr (£1871) for the Aorus Master.
