wich one would be a best buy ? 3090 or 6900xt?

[Nicolas Bossus]

Hello, im from Argentina. The prices of a 4000series and 7000 series are insane here. 
But i saw some interesting pricing on the 6900xt and the 3090 but all used of curse.

Wich one would age better ? or at least? wich one is the best for budget, performance ?

Without knowing the prices, how can we tell you what is best for budget?  What resolution?  Do you use RT?

 

The 3090 is slightly faster, but the 6900XT is more than plenty if you're asking about budget.

well, even when i saw it used, one 6900xt from gigabyte cost 540.000 ARS (Pesos argentinos) the 3090 (founders edition used) cost 680.000 ars

if i buy the 6900xt from gigabyte i hope 16gbs wont age badly in the next years.

 

its quite the diference in price if you ask me. 

 

i hope at the end of the month they dont sell it because i will have enough money in that moment 

 

 Sorry for not being specific before

Np, all good.

Get the 6900XT.  I use mine for 1440p Ultrawide and it handles it very well, it'll do 1440p without an issue.

 

16GB VRAM will be good for years.  All the talk about VRAM is doom and gloom but in reality it isn't as bad as folks make it out to be.  There are millions of 8GB or less cards out there playing games and making people's lives better

The 3090 sucks. I get better performance out of the 3080ti than the 3090. The rear mounted VRAM chips were a terrible decision

I went with the 6900xt from Gigabyte (Gaming OC) at the end. No complains so far
