XT would be my limit as price is kinda steep.
Will still be an upgrade! I’m happy having gone from a 6950 to a 7900 for the reasons I outlined above

on my settings its a jump in warzone of about 50% i think. I play Civ (poorly) WH3 and Stardew valley, but in those fps wasn't really an issue anywayHow does that compare to your 6900xt performance? I’m less worried about the £££ and more worried about actually using it’s capability! Also with the prices on 6950xt/6900xt now it’s attractive
That is not good. I have a feeling once your waterblock comes temps will drop and performance will risethroughout the day i've noticed my mba junction temp getting hotter and hotter to the point i'm at 110c no matter what i do, the card sounds like a jet engine, so i pulled the card apart just and found this horror show under the heatsink
top right mcd has no paste, and tbh the whole die is covered in a very very thin application of TIM (its like cement), gonna have to box up card now until my waterblock arrives, around a month to go

After reading this I just realized that my monitor resolution isn't 4k. 3440x1440, 21:9 WQHD is my max res.I run 160 fps ultrawide so going from my 6900 xt to 7900 xtx is 0 difference but I had to get my son a gpu this Christmas so it had to be done. The raw rasta performance in 3dmark shows how much grunt the 7000 cards have so at least I have peace of mind if I go 4k its going to hack it.
You get a good jump in certain titles, depends how much your willing to spend, I'm in a similar predicament myself at 3440, I either go 6950XT but lack RT or go XTX and get better performance in everything but at a decent price increaseAfter reading this I just realized that my monitor resolution isn't 4k. 3440x1440, 21:9 WQHD is my max res.
4k is 3840 × 2160 or 4096 × 2160.
I guess I won't be able to tell much either going from a 6900xt to a 7900xtx? Perhaps only in RT games?
Although I did not have any temp issues, I took mine apart and put liquid metal on it. Temps got 5c+ better. If you have some thermal paste, just put that on and remount it, should tide you over until your block arrives.throughout the day i've noticed my mba junction temp getting hotter and hotter to the point i'm at 110c no matter what i do, the card sounds like a jet engine, so i pulled the card apart just and found this horror show under the heatsink
