Go to solution Solved by Salted Spinach,

For something brand new, probably this 6800. 16GB of VRAM and no issue with platform that does not support PCiE gen 4. Comes with warranty and no risk of scam

Hello, 

 

I currently have a Red devil 5700xt, one of the fans broke and im in need of a replacement card. Im planning to sell this card at ebay for £230 and then i will have a budget of around £350. It would be best if it was a upgrade from the card. Thanks

I would get rx 6900 xt if youre staying with amd or rtx 3080, both are used.
I don't know how you are going to sell your card for 230 when ebay is full of 120-140 pound cards.

Rest of specs? Monitor res?

cpu ryzen 5 5600
ram 4x8gb 3200mhz corsair rgb vengeance
mobo asus tuf a520m plus II


I have 3 "monitors" technically 2,

my main monitor is 170hz 1920x1080
my other monitor is 200hz 2560x1080
my tv is 60hz 4096x2160 

Though i disconnect the tv through windows display settings so that it isn't active during gaming and i only use it to watch YouTube or other things from my bed.

On ebay if i search up "red devil 5700xt" i get results showing the card selling from around £270-£170

If not upgrading the CPU and if you choose to play on 1440p a Radeon 6800 to 7800XT would be just slightly bottlenecked. If on 1080p, that CPU bottlenecks even a 7700XT
