A great choice for 4K gaming thanks to its hefty VRAM allocation.
As AMD’s (underwhelming) mid-range RX 7000 graphics cards are being released, we’re seeing extremely good discounts on their past-gen offerings, making them significantly better value. Case in point is this deal on the MSI RX 6800, which is a great card for 1440p to 4K gaming and now costs just £430. That’s £260 cheaper than the same card cost at the end of April, reflecting a heck of a savings!

As a reminder, the RX 6800 slots in ahead of the new RX 7600 in terms of overall performance, with Hardware Unboxed spotting around a 44% performance advantage for the 6800 at 1080p, stretching to a 50% advantage at 1440p and 64% at 4K. That’s a massive differential, and about what we’d expect given that the RX 6800 card costs around 66% more.
However, the RX 7600 does have its advantages, notably in power consumption, where the RX 6800 uses around 27% more power according to the HUB figures.
In any case, if you’re after a high-tier AMD graphics card, the RX 6800 offers far better performance per pound than the newer RX 7900 XT (the new option is 76% more expensive for 50% more performance - not a great value!).
