AMD reveals Radeon RX 6900 XT, 6800 XT, and 6800 with Rage power

At last, AMD is ready to compete on the high end of gaming video cards. The company revealed the Radeon RX 6900 XT, RX 6800 XT, and RX 6800 GPUs today. It claims these products have enough power to go head-to-head against Nvidia’s most powerful graphics cards, which is a market segment AMD has evaded for years. But that’s about to change.

The RX 6800XT and RX 6800 both launch November 18. The RX 6900 XT, meanwhile, debuts December 8. AMD is positioning the $580 6800 against Nvidia’s $500 RTX 3700 and the $650 6800XT against the $700 RTX 3080. The RX $1,000 6900 XT, meanwhile, competes against the $1,500 RTX 3090. And AMD showed off a lot of numbers as evidence of its ability to keep up with the competition.
