Assuming £700:

RTX 4070 Super is the better purchase over a 3080/3080Ti at the moment.

£549

RX 7900 GRE is also a better option then the 6800XT, at this very moment a 6900XT is available for quite a bit less.

£530

Or even the 7800 XT at £480

6900 XT £456

7900 XT is at £680


If you are talking used prices, harder to say without knowing the prices.

They both between 350-420£ depending on seller and SE ( eg msi , gigabyte etc )

6900 XT at £456 is the best option near that price range.

It appears that Gigabyte is selling it, I would guess it is a refurb. £380 now, with £24 shipping. Shipped and sold by Amazon, so you have their full 30 day protection. I would jump on that now if I were you.

Actually they have a lot of cards listed well under retail.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/pag...e1ce-e42e-4fec-a6c1-7ec9d013a515&ref_=ast_bln

£390 for a 7800 XT.

so 7800xt over the 6900xt makes more sense , if it's in the 30~ price

my option are the following
7800xt - around 450£
3080 - around 350-400 £
3080ti - around 450£
6800xt - 350-400£
6900xt - 450 ( there is one by gigabyte watercooled for that price , a bit wierd )
6950xt for 460£ used on amazon
