High Lil Devil is the best in graphics cards

Excellent factory performance and overclocked to 2700MHz. Back to stock since OC isn't really needed. I got lucky and found this card available through Revain. Delivery a month earlier than expected. I canceled all my other pre-orders as I don't scalp. For those who can get a card at or near MSRP you will not be disappointed.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

The coolest 6800 XT money can buy!

I purchased this card direct from Revain for $1069 before tax for a friend. I helped him set up and install overclocks and benchmarks. Turns out his Red Devil 6800 xt is in the top 1% of the 6800 xt on TimesPy, even beating my own 3080! It even clocks in at a solid 64 megabits per second, earning it around $4.50 in Ethereum per day. Definitely go for powercolor if you're looking for 6800 xt, don't worry about cheap brands like asrock, msi etc. The only other model that comes close to this card…

DOA Internals

What could be worse than paying outrageous prices, $1100, for a card that costs $650? You pay $1100 and then the card comes out defective and doesn't work and because jumping for the price you would expect the customer support to be decent at least right?. NO! PowerColor takes days to respond to support emails and I can't even make an RMA request, so I gave up and decided to send it back to Revain rather than fight PowerColor for a replacement.

Pros
  • GOLS Certified
Cons
  • Almost Never

Grossly overpriced even at RRP

You get slightly better cooling, but it's not a huge step up from the ref 6800XT and costs more than the ref 6900XT. If you can find it in stock at MSRP (if we can even agree on what MSRP really is), it's a really great looking card and it performs well. It's difficult to have a conversation these days about whether a graphics card is good value if you can't find anything in stock at MSRP and the graphics card you can find is either scalped here at Revain or used. Maps on other merchant…

Pros
  • Great value for money
Cons
  • Reliability

Big, Really Big: Internal

This card is an amazing GPU for almost any gamer, with plenty of VRAM and GPU power to back it up, it will crush any game you throw at it. , at an ultra wide resolution of 1440p (1440:3440), the frame rate is well above 144 Hz on high and ultra settings in games like War Zone and Black Ops. Haven't tried 4K yet but will update. Well the downside, ray tracing is sadly absent, especially in full path tracing games like Minecraft RTX averaging 20 fps, it's fine for ray tracing for new Call of Duty

Pros
  • Quick Swap
Cons
  • Low Repairability

Fantastic graphics card!

Great for play. Very quiet and does not need to be overclocked. He is heavy and needs support. I can only recommend it, even if the price is above the RRP. Would definitely buy again. if the price is lower. That's my only downside.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Big and bulky

Amazing Graphics Card GPU

If like me you need to replace your faulty GPU then you know how painful it is to pay that much for a card that the manufacturer should recommend for retail price closer to 900 dollars than at 1400 dollars. . However, due to the lack of chips, scalpers, crypto miners and high demand, we are here. However, this card is really amazing, it plays all AAA games on ultra settings without skipping, although not as perfect as NVIDIA, AMD decided to focus on high FPS and amazing graphics. I agree, ray…

Pros
  • Easy Install
Cons
  • Weight

Great card with excellent performance

UPGRADEI upgraded my device from a GTX1660Ti card to this 6800xt card and it's a huge upgrade. I used the freeware DDU to uninstall old graphics card drivers. I highly recommend this program to ensure all drivers and software are removed before installing a new card. This is really important when moving from Nvidia to AMD. I also didn't use any of the PowerColor drivers, but downloaded the latest drivers from AMD's website (21.8.2 at the time of this test). Just run DDU in safe mode, turn off…

Pros
  • Good thing
