    $1299 on amd.com for the reference card, what a joke. Their own slides aren't even right on price.
  • n0x1ous - Tuesday, May 10, 2022 - link

    and 10 mins later its lowered to $1099
  • NextGen_Gamer - Tuesday, May 10, 2022 - link

    I'm looking at it on AMD.com right now (10-ish AM central) and it is $1099, in-stock, and will ship immediately. No idea what you are talking about.
  • n0x1ous - Tuesday, May 10, 2022 - link

    apparently you werent there at launch time. it was 1299 then 10 mins later it was lowered to 1099

    Could it have been bot trap?
    That would be nice! Extra 30% price for bot armies for the first 10 minutes ;)

    The traditional workout approach is designed to do EMS workout, weight loss training, and pain relief exercises with a personal trainer. On the other hand, EMS training is electric muscle stimulation training that uses currents to help your body stimulate extensive muscle contractions.

    Typo: RX 9750 XT

    I expect the RX 6800 to disappear because it's a little too good next to the RX 6750 XT.
  • lmcd - Tuesday, May 10, 2022 - link

    6750 XT is so bad it makes me grateful I got a 6700 XT. AMD's MSRP is basically a scalping fee built in.

    ‘AMD's MSRP is basically a scalping fee built in.’

    And these aren’t new chips, other than the little RAM bump.
  • tamalero - Saturday, May 14, 2022 - link

    I'm surprised they are using the exact same everything except the ram speed bump.
    Considering that memory seems to be the constraint on most models... why they didn't increase the cache size too?
  • peevee - Monday, June 6, 2022 - link

    Exactly, why would anyone buy 6750XT when there is 6800 at the same TDP and supposedly just a little more expensive? Unless the $200 markup is here to stay?
  • Slash3 - Tuesday, May 10, 2022 - link

    +<!%, indeed.
  • Mr Perfect - Tuesday, May 10, 2022 - link

    It could have at least been + >!% at these prices.
  • boozed - Tuesday, May 10, 2022 - link

    These prices are still f'ing insane
  • peevee - Monday, June 6, 2022 - link

    I wonder how much TSMC is getting.

    This is the price AMD pays for abandoning Global Foundries.
  • usiname - Tuesday, May 10, 2022 - link

    Lol,
    Nvidia release 3090ti, 10% faster than 3090 for 30% higher price, no word for the price in 50 coments.
    AMD release 6950xt, 10% faster than 6900XT for 10% higher price, 10 of 10 coments coplain for the higher price
    Its so easy to see who is fanbot here XD
  • Oxford Guy - Thursday, May 12, 2022 - link

    The entire world doesn’t revolve around Nvidia.

    What the GPU market needs is more competition. AMD competes directly against PC gaming customers via consoles and mining.
  • silverblue - Wednesday, May 11, 2022 - link

    I hear that the Infinity Cache is now faster as well, 9%/3.8%/5.4% from top to bottom.
  • Chicken76 - Wednesday, May 11, 2022 - link

    @Ryan Smith
    Your table shows the 6650 XT memory clock as 18 Gbps, but on AMD's website they list it as 17.5 Gbps. Have they changed their mind last minute?

  • kn00tcn - Thursday, May 12, 2022 - link

    videocardz listed 17.5 for weeks before launch as well, though maybe the chips themselves are rated for 18? i wonder if this increases ram overclocking potential
  • jtd871 - Wednesday, May 11, 2022 - link

    No 6600 (-xt) in the AMD Radeon RX 6700/6600 Series Specification Comparison table?!
  • r3loaded - Thursday, May 12, 2022 - link

    Retail prices may have fallen, but the MSRPs on these cards is still ridiculous. A top-end card should be $700, perhaps $800 for a highly-tuned one, with high-end ones coming in at $500. $1099 and $699 is stupid money for these.
  • kn00tcn - Thursday, May 12, 2022 - link

    should it? currency inflation always goes up, not to mention cost of manufacturing, why should price points stay the same?

    also if they stayed the same, that means you were paying more in the past since a dollar was worth more then (but i guess it also meant you were paid more if your salary is the same)

    that said, 6800xt vs 6900xt is a much smaller flops difference than the price difference

    though having so many cores/shaders/etc in a single chip means it's rarer to be able to salvage one from a wafer without defects, thus higher price per perfect chip which could explain the 6800 vs 6900 pricing when they use the same base chip
  • Oxford Guy - Thursday, May 12, 2022 - link

    ‘currency inflation always goes up’

    And companies are using consumer ignorance about inflation to raise prices as much as their executives think they can.

    The bigger problem is the lack of adequate competition in the GPU space.
  • peevee - Monday, June 6, 2022 - link

    Or in chip manufacturing.

    20 years ago (and for decades before) at least 3 American companies had leading-edge chip manufacturing: IBM, Intel, AMD.

    Now it is just TSMC with Samsung trying to catch up.

    Ain't globalism great? Or maybe a certain orange man was onto something?
  • qwertymac93 - Saturday, May 14, 2022 - link

    You'd have to be out of your mind to buy the 6750XT when the 6800XT is so much faster at a similar price.

    The 6650XT is the only new product that even remotely looks like an improvement in value.
  • nandnandnand - Saturday, May 14, 2022 - link

    6750 XT to 6800 non-XT gets you +17.5% performance (based on TechPowerUp), 33% more VRAM and Infinity Cache, the same TDP, at a 5.5% higher MSRP (+$30).

    But the 6800 non-XT is selling far above MSRP for those reasons and will probably be discontinued in favor of making more 6800 XT.
  • Tamdrik - Sunday, May 15, 2022 - link

    I'm not sure why you think the 6650XT looks like an improvement in value over the 6600XT. Supposedly +2% performance for ~+7% price and +12% TBP (though we don't know if it will actually consume that much more power in typical use).
  • catavalon21 - Sunday, May 15, 2022 - link

    "...the RX 6750 XT and RX 6650 XT stand to fare better against NVIDIA’s baseline RTX 3070 and 3060 cards respectively."

    Pity there aren't test results to answer the question of how well they fare.
  • Mike Bruzzone - Sunday, May 15, 2022 - link

    I made the pitch to AMD to price Rx 6x50_ at run end 7 nm depreciated node cards add fast memory system too drag down existing N6x inventoried pricing: last in first out. But AMD chose the traditional sales tactic to heap these cards on top of existing inventoried to press older N6x out of inventories; first in first out. Idea of back generation depreciated lithography node wide bus with fast memory will happen again because it's a good idea simply attempted to close on approaching next generation. Depreciated lithography 7 nm and even 12 nm for the industrial embedded market optimized (fast optimized) subsystem design are here to stay this just was not the right timing for the idea. mb

    I can't keep my cool when it comes to video cards. the situation in the market is very sad.
  • Hrel - Monday, September 26, 2022 - link

    If anyone at AMD sees this, I'm waiting for a GPU that costs less than $150. It only needs to handle 1080p. I just want something modern and more energy efficient. RX5600XT levels of performance is plenty. That card is what, 3 years old now?

    I've never spent more than $160 on a GPU and I never will. With that said my current GPU is almost 10 years old from release and about 8 from purchase. It's still fast enough for everything I play, it's just hot and gets loud in unreal engine 4.

    I don't think my price is unfair considering how low my requirements are.

    Please guys, give us something viable under $150!
