The thread which sometimes talks about RDNA2

[KentMan]

Right I'm out for the night chaps! Time to play some Division 2 on my series X while i wait to be disappointed trying to get a 6800XT tomorrow!

Best of luck everyone on their purchases

God speed KentMan.

Micro center in the USA: 6800 and 6800xt launch stock is extremely limited, there is no online sales and you will have to queue up a ray in advance if you would like a chance to purchase a card

6800xt ray tracing performance at 1440p leaks

Quite a bit (30%) slower than the rtx3080

Thanks Grim! Can count on ye for positive updates in the AMD thread!

I might just go to the local computer shop and wait outside like a vulture instead of trying to get here.

Good luck. Local retailers won't have these cards I think... They sound like they're favouring the biggies only.

A retailer and online store have 0 coming and I thought they were big...

This is all too much, one mind I want a 6800xt next min I think I should give the 3080 a hug and say you're in your forever home now, but I don't know

Who needs Ray tracing.

Who needs Ray tracing.

Rasterisation is king for me, for now. Anything that massively tanks FPS is auto disabled, I want FPS at or near monitor refresh rate where possible, 5120x1440 @120 HZ.

Who needs Ray tracing.

Personally wont bother with RT this generation unless im still getting 100+ FPS in games im playing (or im on a joypad..)

 

[montymint]

see this is why you need to have a slow ass monitor like mine (3440 x 1440 75hz) , 60-100 fps with RT on is just fine

 

[JediFragger]

For the love of god man, why?

Just when we thought 10GB was diabolical on a high end GPU, you went even lower.

Oh the shame!

Who needs Ray tracing.

no one apparently cause of you read the launch day driver notes you'll see that all your games will crash if you try to use ray tracing

I don't get the hype around ray tracing it looks very unimpressive in the games I've seen. It's hard to spot the difference in side by side stills, I doubt you would notice actually playing a game and not looking at a puddle.

How else do you expect people to lengthen their e-peens?
