AI Summary

The AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT remains a strong performer in 2025, delivering excellent 1440p gaming and solid 4K performance, especially when leveraging FSR. Priced at $649, it competes well against newer options like the Radeon RX 7800 XT and offers better value than the aging GeForce RTX 3080. Its 16GB of VRAM ensures longevity in demanding titles.


Pros

  • Delivers excellent 1440p performance with average frame rates well above 100 FPS in most games
  • 16GB of GDDR6 memory provides strong future-proofing for modern and demanding titles
  • Handles 4K gaming competently, especially with FSR—e.g., Starfield jumps from 33 FPS to 47 FPS with FSR Quality at 2160p
  • Outperforms older flagships like the GeForce RTX 3080 in rasterization and offers better value at the same price point

Cons

  • Struggles with ray tracing performance—e.g., dips to 28 FPS in Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice at 4K with RTX ON
  • Lacks modern upscaling features compared to NVIDIA’s DLSS or AMD’s newer RDNA3-based FSR implementations
  • Benchmarks show it is outpaced by the RDNA3-based Radeon RX 7800 XT, especially in 1% lows and power efficiency
