Nice read that, good opinions too.
Lots are so blinded by Nvidias DLSS and Raytracing marketing, that they just don't consider AMD GPUs as being "worthy enough" when in fact they are brilliant GPUs.
They certainly are.
Remove ray tracing from the equation and the 6900XT compares very well to the 3090.
The reality is ray tracing hasn't even been that great for me personally. Not a single game has wowed me with it.
The power draw in comparison to Nvidia cards is fantastic too.
The reason I went for Nvidia is my tv only has gsync support and that's a massive factor for me.
With regards to the likes of DLSS and RSR etc I'm probably in the minority that doesn't want that push. I'd rather graphics cards were powerful enough to run the resolutions natively. I actually avoid using it when possible as I prefer the native resolution.
All those technologies are is a band aid for the fact that hardware isn't powerful enough to run at certain resolutions with raytracing.
It's great for consoles, but on PC give me more powerful hardware.
