Hi there!

I'm looking at these used graphics card options. It would be for gaming at 1440p@60fps.
Which do you think is the best value for money?

RX 6800 (NON XT) for 275€
RX 6900 XT for 350€

I understand the most powerful is the 6900XT, but I don't know if it offers the best value.


Cheers!

RDNA2 is growing old by now, I think the 6900XT is preferable since it will soon enable 1440p/60fps in modern games where the 6800 non-XT will fall behind, even if we assume optimized settings. That being said, if going for the 6900XT is a bit too much effort for you, or you intend to upgrade again in 1-2 years, then the 6800 non-XT will do the job anyway. It may be a good idea to think about the games or genres you play the most, then take into account how long you plan to own the card.
