I'm not trying to knock the deal but this actually appears to be the "Mech" version of this card. The "Gaming" version has a metal backplate. Amazon has Gaming in the product listing title but shows a picture of the Mech retail packaging. I'm not sure how much value the metal backplate adds but assume it would slightly improve cooling.
Is this a good buy? I want to play Elden Ring on Ultra.
Generally speaking the 6700xt can get you 60fps at 1080p ultra with reasonable 1% lows. But at 2k you will notice more shuttering and more lows. Don't even ask about 4k. I would recommend a 6750xt/3070 at 2k ultra for the smoothest experience.

$100 more over MSI Gaming 6650 XT that I got less than a month ago!?!
are prices going up again!?
So it seems, the midrange stayed about the same or slightly higher, but the higher end cards like the 6800 series prices went up quite a bit compared to last year.

These cards can rot, no one held and now they can just raise prices again.
Prices rise and fall with supply-demand cycles (and about 100 other factors). A half dozen 'holders' from Reddit aren't likely to alter the global GPU market in any measurable way.
Here is a novel idea...buy something if you need it, "hold" off if you don't.

It really depends on your CPU as well. I have Ryzen 5600 with 6700xt. Usually get 70-100+ fps on Elden ring max setting. It's really not a bad deal if you are compare with Nvidia equivalent card (3060ti or 3070).
