So, I know I have been making a lot posts about rx 6800 xt. So, i took your suggestion and returned my powercolor red devil rx 6800 xt (which I didn't really mind doing anyway, so don't ask why I didnt keep it), and I also got a new 750w corsair rmx series psu. And now I wanted to know what gpu to choose from between the ones listed above. I am skeptical on the msi one because I saw that it has 3x8 pin connectors and not sure if that is really viable because the new psu came with only 2x8 pin pcie plus the ones daisy chained. 

 

P.S- I do not want to hear anyone saying just wait for the 7000 series.

It's not going to use that much more power than a reference AMD card or any other 6800xt. My reference card only has 2 8 pin connectors and gets by just fine. If you get one with 3 8 pins I'd be perfectly comfortable daisy chaining one set of them.

As for specific performance between each one? There isn't going to be any massive differences. I would expect the MSI to be slightly cooler running, but it won't make a big difference. Get which ever brand you prefer and which ever is the better price.

Side note: I won't buy anything MSI right now because of how they've handled issues with other products. Which one you get is your choice though.

I'm not actually trying to be as grumpy as it seems.

I will find your mentions of Ikea or Gnome and I will /s post.
