eBay has buyer protection. Either way, we're getting away from my original question.

Right, but I can't return the card in a few years 😅

Hello, everyone. I recently purchased a used Sapphire Pulse RX 6800 XT and ran 3DMark Time Spy and Fire Strike Extreme, to see if it had any issues (results below). https://www.3dmark.com/spy/39223570 https://www.3dmark.com/fs/30216678 It seems to be performing as expected, though I'm no...

Awesome information all around. Thank you, everyone. I’ll stick with my current setup until it is no longer meeting my needs.

Thank you to everyone who responded...you're making it hard to choose which post gets the "Best Answer" nod. Though, as I'm writing this, I don't seem to see it as an option anymore. Anyhow, right now I suppose I don't have any specific issue that is concerning. I have made a couple of threads...

Link to my current build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Btn7tn Hello, everyone. I am trying to get a better understanding of CPU/GPU bottlenecks. I am using the following site, though I have tried a couple of other ones: https://pc-builds.com/bottleneck-calculator/ First, I can't get a...

Still looking for help with this issue. Thanks

Many thanks!

Got it. So, unless I have a monitor that supports the resolution I want to upscale to, XeSS is not worth enabling? I ran the XeSS Features Test in 3DMark before posting here, and it defaulted to 1440p. What I should have done was run it in 1080p, though that means I would need to run the games...

Hello everyone. I was wondering if XeSS is somehow limited by your monitor's max resolution. For example, I have a 1080p monitor, so is it worth turning on XeSS? If the idea is to achieve visuals similar to a higher resolution (e.g., 1440p in this case), and my monitor can't display that...

Thank you for this. Since you mentioned expected performance, aside from the peak of the score range, what are some other ways for me to gauge whether I'm getting advertised performance?

Link to my build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Btn7tn Hello everyone. I recently ran the CPU Profile benchmark in 3DMark and got the following result: https://www.3dmark.com/cpu/1178639 I scored in the bottom 30% for systems with the same CPU. Are there other system component(s) that can...

Firestrike: https://www.3dmark.com/fs/29897880 It definitely feels like I should be getting much better results, compared to others with my CPU and GPU.

My 3DMark TimeSpy results: https://www.3dmark.com/spy/37573574 I was #47 compared to other users with my CPU and GPU. Looking at some of the top guys, they all seem to have a B550 and faster and/or more RAM. Not sure if that’s the issue (can the motherboard be a hindrance?). In any case...
