    Nope, too expensive for a 50% bump in performance over the 6800XT 5 years later. The 6800XT MSRP translates to the newer 749 (inflation adjusted).

    That’s a x700 card for the price of an x800 class with an anemic performance bump given the 5y interval. If these are the real prices, AMD’s market share won’t budge. I suspect the leaked retailer protests were involved in this 200$ bump to the original leaked MSRP, this card at 500$ would have made the 7xxx series expensive paper weights to everyone that carries a significant stock.

    The GPU market is in shambles and anti-trust regulation is not enforced at all.
