Absolutely, the fact that this comes with Starfield means the cards cost $70 less than they are. I am actually considering building a new PC with the 7800 XT. Wanted to do this 2 years ago but to expensive. Can't wait to replace my 2016 pc!
I know as much as you do. There is Ray tracing in there, but the difference in performance between AMD and Nvidia with ray tracing isn't changing this generation.
I own a Nvidia card but damn am I happy for them to have competition, especially with FSR 3.0 coming out Nvidia will be pushed to keep improving DLSS rather than simply getting a free win on the software end of things. FSR 3.0 also working on non AMD cards including Nvidia ones (importantly pre RTX cards) is a huge win for consumers everywhere.

Yessss that's a nice sweet spot in pricing, still too rich for my blood but I bet it'll drive the prices further down on the $300-$400 cards.

I'll wait until 16GB VRAM is standard and not relegated to the premium tier GPUs. Until then, my money stays in my wallet.

@kae any of these have ray tracing or a similar technology?

If only amd works on blender as good as nvidia then I'd be team red.
