I'm in two minds!

1st world problem for sure, but I need a bit of advice on what graphics card to get for my new system.

Link to system with 3080 configured: https://www.scan.co.uk/3xs/shared/8...gshare&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=copypaste

Link to my main monitor https://www.acer.com/ac/en/IL/content/predator-model/UM.JX1EE.012 (Acer 32" 4K G-sync, 30-60Hz)


So technically the AMD 5950/6900XT combo with a PCI 4.0 X570 M/B should give higher performance, but I have a £800 G-sync monitor that I don't think will work with free-sync.

I hate screen tearing, but I hope the 6900XT should be able to output at least 60fps, but it still nags me!

AMD graphics drivers, are they as good as Nvidia? or good enough?

Ignore the price difference (the 6900XT is likely £100-200 more expensive) what would I go for and why?
