I have the opportunity to buy a Rx 6800 XT... Should I?

So I got an email from AMD, to people who signed up for the AMD Red Team, talking about a Rx 6800xt midnight black edition.

It’s not fake or anything even videocardz covered it

So anyways I and others who have signed up for AMD Red Team prior to this announcement, can have the opportunity to buy one at MSRP with a link I can’t show.

I really don’t need a graphics card upgrade but with how supply and demand is… Should I buy this?

Yes, of course. Get it.

How much is it?

ITS SO TEMPTING AHH

Like I don’t need it yet it feels like I would regret

It’s 649. If you don’t get that I’ll be disappointed in you.

You’re on a 5700XT right? That’s a huge jump.

Yeah I’m on a 5700xt but like I really wanted a sapphire nitro instead of a reference

This midnight edition looks amazing.

And also the Nitro isn’t worth double the price.

Hope that you ended up getting it.

Yeah I got it even though I feel like I don’t really need it all because sal made me feel guilty of not going for it

With my luck it’d probably be force cancellation because didn’t have one for me

lol

I mean I don’t think you’ll regret it. It’s a great card, especially for WoW.

The Midnight Black Edition also has the virtue of being more unique much like your old Frontier Edition Vega.

Nice! Hope it comes. Let us know how it is if/once it gets installed.

I would had preferred a nitro rx 6900xt even though it’s a pipedream as of now

I’d had waited for next generation tbh because the 5700xt suits me enough

I’d like to add that the 6800XT is the card I actually wanted vs. the 3080. It was just an opportunity that presented itself and I didn’t want to pay over MSRP for a 6800XT.

I think you got a great deal and are going to be happy.

Nice, that’s a lot of oomph for $650.

Also, this reminds me that I should probably go sign up for everything program like this haha.

Did you ever get the email confirmation on the order/charge?

I saw on Reddit guys were just watching a blue circle spin but not getting past the add to cart stage.

Not yet but I’d be ok if i don’t get one, still would prefer a sapphire nitro

Just buy any GPU at MSRP if you are looking for one. Shortage pretty much killing the prices.

You, did you get your confirm email?

Saw this and thought of you. Hope you didn’t get shafted :frowning:

No, haven’t gotten any email yet

That Midnight Black model is even prettier, I hope you get yours.

If you do, don’t forget to share some photos of it!
