haha i do love LoL alot. but i want to play all the upcoming call of dutys and warzone, i want to be able to run games like cyberpunk 2077 or godfall

i want it to be powerfull enough so that i can play all the upcoming games. (ark 2 etc)

I personally would go for the XT, since the difference in price is not that big, and it is a bit better and will last a bit longer. However, that is assuming you can find one, which isn't a safe assumption nowadays. I would just go which ever one you can get your hands on, because either way, it's a pretty save choice.

so i am going to be gaming on 1440p 165 hertz and i wanted to know, should i get the XT? or save some money and get the non xt

What games are you going to be playing, since if you're just planning on playing LoL, save your money and buy a GTX 1050Ti. If you're planning on playing Cyberpunk or Crysis Remastered, get the XT, as you'll need every advantage you can get.

I believe there's a wider difference between the RX 6800XT vis-a-vis RX 6800, whereas the difference between the RX 6900XT vs RX 6800XT is slimmer, so the RX 6800 XT would be the better price/performance card (assuming you can get one at MSRP or as near to it as possible). 

 

I have a Sapphire Nitro+ RX 6800, and I love it, though I'd be happier with a 6800XT. I've ordered an XFX Speedster MERC319 RX 6900XT (simply because it's near impossible to even preorder an RX 6800XT) and hope to get it soon. I don't regret buying the Niro+ RX 6800, but I should have looked at the 6900 XT instead of just focusing on the RX 6800 XT, and settling for the RX 6800 instead. Still, it's a fast card, almost 1.5-2 times the performance of my VEGA64 in many of the games I've played. Strange Brigade framerate is not far off that of CF'ed VEGA64's.

It depends of price diference if what you can fim.. if its under 100 euros go for xt.. Over 100 i dont think its Worth extra 150 ir 200e Over the 6800as the 6800 doesnt Worth Over 100 from rtx 3070

Iam with 6800 XT now on 1440p 240hz monitor but ONLY took XT model because i find for 769€ the 6800 available was 740 but nowdays i ser 6800 for 800/900 and the XT for 1100-1200... Beeing honest até this moment if i would buy a GPU, i would go find a 5700xt or 2070 super for 350-450€ and Skip this genaration. None of the cards eather AMD or NVIDIA are Worth this pricetags. If you are thinking about trying Ray tracing forget it.. Ray trace sucks yet.... Its cool to stop and look at it but its way enjoyable play game without raytracing with 100+ fps

I had a 6800 and now have a 6800XT. If you can afford it go for the XT.
