Personally the Merc 319 Black was my stop in the holdout. With a top binned XTXH chip, its performance is equivalent to that of a 6950XT.

I upgraded from a 3060TI which is now my wife's card since her 980TI died.
I feel no regrets after the official AMD price drop and I think $699 for this specific card is already a good deal. I usually simp for Sapphire if I roll with AMD, but XFX and this card has impressed me. I will be very surprised if we ever see $599 on the card but then again AMD seems to be more consumer friendly versus greedy big green.
It does sounds like a jet engine for certain games like Satisfactory, but it's performance is around +20-40fps gains from my 3060TI at 1440p ultra settings and that's on my G-Sync monitors.
I've never had Freesync monitors since my last AMD card was a blessed Sapphire R9 Tri-290X, but I've read that G-Sync monitors can be iffy and I do see driver issues with my monitors that can be fixed with a restart. So that's annoying and currently saving for some decent Freesync monitors.
Lastly, for those who are swearing by DLSS with Nvidia cards, idk what they are seeing. With my 3060TI, I have been unimpressed with DLSS and stopped using it. I certainly don't care for it and don't miss it. With Nvidia touting DLSS 3 for its higher end cards in the 4090 series, I think they are now making it more for high end?? Which is the opposite of when they originally advertised DLSS and making older cards run games better so 🤷
