I'm looking to upgrade from my trusty RTX 2070 Super to boost my gaming experience. I found two options locally: an RTX 3080 for $350 and a 6800 XT for $460. I'm stuck trying to decide which one is the better choice. Any thoughts?

While it’s true that the 6800 XT can sometimes edge out the 3080 in performance, at that price difference, I’d recommend sticking with the 3080. You’re getting great performance for a lower price, which is a win-win!
The RTX 3080 is a solid pick, especially since it’s cheaper than the 6800 XT. If performance is your priority, I'd go with it for that price, as it's known to outperform the 6800 XT in many scenarios. Just make sure your CPU can handle it!
Absolutely! Also, the 3080 is still a powerhouse for gaming, and that price is hard to beat.
