is radeon RX 6750 XT a steal ?

[soundzen]

excuse my curiosity into Radeon... after posting an Nvidia tread im back at my gpu shopping list because my budget was all wrong...back then ive mentioned 600$ instead of 550 Euros and now my budget is down to 400 Euros (430$) because im keeping 100 Euros on the side to upgrade psu to 750W or even 850W (depending on connectors needed for the selected psu in this tread), so lets begin:

i have an intel cpu i5-12600k on a mobo Z790 limited to ddr4 Ram and i found on sale a gpu RX 6750 XT 12Gb for under 400 Euros (performance chart, the model above this radeon, is the rtx 4060 ti 16Gb which cost 550 Euros)... im looking for a minimum of 12 Vram up to 16Gb because buying cheaper Nvidias are limited to 8Gb (3060 and 4060 series) and i dont want to waste another 500 Euros in 5 years since games will only get more demanding.

QUESTION: this RX is a bargain so i ask, "whats the catch" with radeon cheap prices... what do i look for, as compatibility with my setup?

heres a pic of the minimum gpu requirements for my games in YELLOW and also the expensive nvidia in RED compared to the cheap radeon in GREEN... its more than 100 Euros difference which can buy me a new psu!

PS: i dont do live streams, i dont photo edit nor draw vectorial 3D architecture of sort - i just need gpu to surf the net, watch Netflix and play on Steam while listening to Spotify.​

thank you for your insight.

400 euro is not really that cheap for a new 6750XT, it's pretty much standard.

 

[soundzen]

ok... well i guess im not used to radeon prices im sure nvidia being salesman leader abuses with 100 euros bump

 

[SL2]

The cheapest in DE starts at 330.

365 euros in PT... you win LOL

 

[silverzero]

I have a 6800
I would recommend it completely its better than the 6750, i don't think it costs that much more money, and I can still play everything in the highest settings at 1440p at well over 100 fps.
Ray tracing isn't that great admittedly, but raytracing isn't that great on a 4060 either.

 

[soundzen]

- EDIT: rx6800 i can find are over 400 Euros and come with 3 fans which is a squeeze inside my mini atx case...

I forgot to mention that i dont care for 1440 or 4K or Ray-Tracing not even FPS, because i only play in 1080 at 60hz.

im wondering about RADEON GPU compatibility with my mobo ASUS PRIME Z790M PLUS D4 (ddr4-3600) athough i will choose the same brand ASUS if possible.

i was told i can "mix & match" even having an INTEL CPU in my setup --- so, what must i look for,when buying a gpu ???

• consumption
• pci-e slot
• psu connector
• atx dimensions

( im a noob, so i dont intent to overclock anything )

It will work with that motherboard, although, if you're building in a SFF, RTX 4060 Ti all the way. The 6750 XT is only worth as an alternative if you intend to use Linux as your operating system. The RTX is much more power efficient and has modern features that will help keep thermals and power under control. If you have 400 euros to spend, here is a suitable, SFF friendly 4060 Ti for 389€ at PCDiga

This is, simply put, better than any Radeon you can buy for your use case. Its power consumption is very low, it performs well, and will be supported for a long time to come. By the way: Intel and AMD CPUs can run both GeForce, Radeon and ARC GPUs, one does not depend on the other.

thank you, i will look into it ... forgot to mention that i dont care for 1440 or 4K or Ray-Tracing not even FPS, because i only play in 1080 at 60hz since my monitor is actually a 32" TV

Many years ago I used to do the same (I used a 47'' 60hz 1080p LG IPS tv with 4:4:4 chroma as a monitor: I thought I was pretty smart at the time; still can't fault people that do similar!).

I still often hook my laptop up to a similar cheap LG monitor (I also bought many years ago) with similar specs to your TV at my desk (I use a 65'' 4k120 OLED TV now for gaming).

I would seriously consider waiting to see what N48 brings to the table. That is AMD's next low-end chip expected to launch relatively shortly. Should essentially replace the 7600xt 16GB; probably better than 4060 Ti performance and likely less expensive than 6700/6750xt...also probably 16GB instead of 12GB.

If you can't wait, I would perhaps check some fs forums/ebay/facebook marketplace for something like a used 6700xt (I see in The States they are ready available for $230 on Ebay).

Not judging you, and the 12600k is still a good-enough CPU imo, but the new market is not well-served with a well-matched GPU right now, especially wrt pricing/VRAM.

It *can* make sense if you buy used.

Given your setup, but not knowing the PSU, I imagine you have enough power connectors (2x-8pin or could use 1x8-pin with a splitter) for anything in this approximate range; I doubt you need a new PSU.

FWIW, I still recommend buying a 7800xt if you want to be completely happy until the next console gen.

I had 6700XT and it was nice card but I swapped few month ago with 6900XT that I have a chance to get cheap(around 450€) and 6900XT is much powerful GPU especially because I am playing mostly in 4K/60Hz but for you if you play only in 1080p/60Hz I am pretty sure that 6750XT or 6700XT will do the job....GL

 

[Dr. Dro]

He said no 8 GB.

Targeting 1080p 60Hz gaming, more than 8 GB VRAM is not necessary. To pretend otherwise, especially on a budget, is simply caving in to FOMO - and FOMO never amounts to a good decision, especially if you're now opting to buy a previous generation, substandard product on that quality alone. Might as well buy the 3060-12GB which is gonna do everything, right? No. If they proceed, they'd be purchasing a worse GPU in every single metric by going with a 6750 XT.

Given their light workload, the 4060 Ti would be the superior option in every single use case. There is not one single redeeming feature about the 6750 XT when pitched against the 4060 Ti.

It lines up well FOR NOW, I agree with you 100%.

But I look at it as we're looking at the PS5 pro generation pretty soon.

If he's expecting 5 years, I hesitate even recommending something in the 6800/'8600xt' range.

You (personally) made the jump I'm recommending he make (almost literally/exactly). I don't think you expect that card to do 4k60 mins when the PS6 launches. He might hope his still does 1080p60 mins.

I'm gonna be perfectly honest chief, trying to do future-proofing is a foolish concept, especially on a budget. If you have even the remotest, faintest expectation that almost any GPU you buy today is going to be hanging out with the next-generation cards on somewhat of an equal footing, you aren't buying below the RTX 4090. Even my giant, power uncapped custom 4080 is not gonna hold up, it's gonna be middling the charts by the end of this year when the RTX 50 series comes out alongside other similarly far more powerful cards like the 7900 XTX itself. This is the reality of the tech world, something newer, faster, and more efficient is always around the corner. You have to look on a case by case basis.

- 1080p 60 target
- Light gaming
- Movies
- Web browsing

This is a VERY light workload. The AMD card shouldn't even be considered an option for this use case, I maintain, you are looking at ~50% better power efficiency over the previous-generation Radeon.

(this is not aimed at you brother, just a quick vent) - It's funny when it's to defend AMD this forum's tone turns from aggressive pursuit of green energy to all sorts of excuses. Whatever. OP learns the hard way if they want to. I had my say on this thread, I'll leave the facts behind and go on with my day.

Slightly faster at gaming with no issues for minimum FPS:

Far more energy efficient:

Oh, you mean like buying a 2080 Ti from 2018 with the notion it would still be a relevant card today (although I know I'll need to upgrade soon to maintain a greater than console experience)?

You, in-fact, CAN, extrapolate. Because you're recommending the exact same performance I bought years ago to last until this very moment (mid-cycle refresh; post 5nm GPUs)....and it did.

Leaving conversation now. No disrespect. He can make up his own mind. Just don't think you and I will find ourselves in a constructive dialogue.

I came here to try to help him, not fight with you.

Same here, I edited my post. Bit on edge, apologies for that. I never meant to argue either.

Anyway, the 2080 Ti's there, at almost the bottom of the charts, with the power consumption of the hungriest ones. That's the problem with buying previous-gen gear, it won't be relevant even compared to budget cards of the time.

I bet you don't care about ray tracing, because you have never had card capable of doing it. I would like to once hear somebody who had one and regular playing with RT gave him opinion that he doesn't care about it. People with weak cards who simply turned it on for a minute to see it all on slide show shouldn't be treated seriously.

We are at the point when we can be sure that ray tracing is going to replace traditional methods due to tending to look better and needing less work. Plus needing upscaler to help framerate when Nvidia's solution looks better than AMD's or rather FSR looks bad. That makes Radeon cards not prepared for what is already here and will only progress, so there's the catch with their prices or giving more VRAM/performance for the price. It all makes Radeon suitable for high fps, not pretty graphics gaming, so older or esport titles. Bad picks if we talk so called demanding games, AAA.

im looking for a minimum of 12 Vram up to 16Gb because buying cheaper Nvidias are limited to 8Gb (3060 and 4060 series) and i dont want to waste another 500 Euros in 5 years since games will only get more demanding

Any mid-range GPU is going to be obsolete in 5 years, regardless of what manufacturer it's from or how much or how little VRAM it has... that's how technology works.

 

[Keullo-e]

I already liked my 6700 XT (which is now on my 2nd PC) and when thinking that 6750 XT is just a higher-clocked version of it, I'd say you'll be fine with it. I just needed a faster card since I play at 4K.

For 1080p it's a beast and probably does its job great as well in 1440p (haven't tested myself, I have only 1080p and 4K screens). And since you seem to have a 1080p monitor, you'd be fine with a 67x0 XT.

 

[soundzen]

please my Friends, do not argue among yourselves because of my post... i don't want to start another fight between AMD and NVIDIA apologies for stirring it up in the first place... thank you all for your valuable inputs, i'm always learning !!!

so if my daily use doesn't need more memory, its a tie between RTX 4060 Ti @ 8Gb Vram (because 16Gb version is to expensive) and the RX 6750 XT @ 12 Vram (although most are out of stock).

i didn't notice that the RX 6750 XT i was looking at, prior to creating this tread, was in a Refurbished state and so its a no-no for me, sorry... i would like a brand new GPU because i've got dupped once with an "Outlet" item and store giving me 1~2 Years warranty doesn't appease me.

ok, let me re-check Asus power consumption Chart for these 2 GPU... maybe my 550w PSU is enough, with power-spikes and all ?!

Best regards from your little noob Lady

With choosing a GPUs there's a rule of not buying cards which could be even a little considered short on VRAM for your use case (like e.g. resolution). Especially if you expect to use such for some time and mentioned five years is quite much for midrange card. Doable if we assume nothing groundbreaking and tendencies from the past, growth of requirements, repeating in similar manner. Todays bare minimum to run (1920x1080, 30fps, lowest settings) majority of the most demanding games gives 8 year old midrange card: GTX 1060. And I didn't count help of upscaling. The problem may be 6GB of VRAM and this is how VRAM happen obsoleting cards.

Seasonic Focus was decent PSU, so it won't burn your PC if not handling whatever upgrade. It will at worse get noisier or turn off, so you should give it a try.

If you only play 1080p60 there's no argument to not go with a RTX 4060/Ti.

The Radeons you're considering all use much more power as they're last generation and also a less efficient architecture.

Having DLAA at 1080p also does a lot to get rid of the low resolution aliasing.

The 12 GB minimum is for people who play at 1440p. You won't have an issue at 1080p.

Even then, that 12 GB is only needed for some games at 1440p.

You're talking double the power consumption with a 67/6800.

 

[soundzen]

ok then... score 2-1 for nvidia

 

[Vya Domus]

Would categorically not recommend paying 400 euro for a new card with just 8GB of VRAM at this point in time, it's ridiculous.

If you want an Nvidia card buy a used 3080.
