I'm interested in the 4070 ti, but unsure it's worth upgrading from 6800xt. Also I worry about vram. I game at 3440 x 1440. Just upgraded the the UW monitor that's part of reason I'm looking for an upgrade. Also I just find fsr looks pretty meh and my gpu struggles to do native now in UW.

6800xt

With that, I'd wait for RDNA4.

7800xt isn't much of an upgrade, nor is 4070ti.

agreed. the 6800xt is a baller of a card, imo.

7800xt is about the same (except a little better on RT and has av1 encoder). Some games, it's actually a little worse.

4070ti is better in RT, but similar (if not a downgrade) in raster. Not an upgrade either.

Traditionally, one generation is not worth it, unless you're going from low-mid end to high end. which is costly. Still applies today apparently.

I tend to HODL and only upgrade every 4-5 gens. Vega64 -> RDNA4 is my current plan.

Are you saying 6800xt is the same in raster as 4070ti or did you mean 4070?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Oh, point.

But, of course, at 4070ti prices, I'd look at 7900xt.
