I dont mean to come off as being rude but did you not do any research before dropping that kind of cash?
I definitely did my research and managed to order a 6800 XT for a fair bit less than a 3080 would cost me. I was aware of DLSS of course, but this thread is full of positive impressions that make me want AMD to release their version.
I hope you didn't buy the AIBs models that are actually more expensive then the 3080.
No. My order is for a stock card at MSRP. No idea if the order will be fulfilled with all of the stock issues. But fingers crossed.
