I posted this in another thread, thought i'd post it in here too for anyone thinking of buying.

Just a heads up, starting Tuesday, AMD is going to bundle Starfield Premium key with these graphics cards ($99.99 value). Don't know if prices on these will increase or stay the same.

Full list of AMD Radeon cards getting the $99.99 Starfield Premium :-

7900 XTX and XT
6900 XT & 6950 XT
6800 & 6800 XT
6700 & 6700 XT

The cheaper 7600/6600/6650 will be getting the standard edition of the game ($69.99)

On another note, AMD CPU's will also be getting the game key as well. Starfield Premium will be bundled with the following :-

Ryzen 9 7950X3D
Ryzen 9 7950X
Ryzen 9 7900X3D
Ryzen 9 7900X
Ryzen 9 7900

Ryzen 7 7800X3D
Ryzen 7 7700X
Ryzen 7 7700
Ryzen 5 7600X
Ryzen 5 7600

The game will release on 09/06 though.

The 7900xt is absolutely not worth it if you already have a 6950xt.

No point in upgrading until next gen for you, unless you have tons of cash and want a 4090.

Insane amount of power for the money. The cheapest 6950XT is the MERC319 that's currently $580 if you're on a limited budget.

Put up a quick list for folks to take a peep of what to expect. You can swap out the 7600 for even more powerful 7700/X or 7800X3D for gaming or a 7900/X that's been floating around for $350 if you need them cores. And a 2TB 980 Pro for $100 is amazing.

I built a very similarly cost computer two weeks ago.

i7 12700K + MSI Tomahawk - $350
Liquid Freezer II - $100
32 GB Corsair DDR5 5600 Ram - $100
Lian Li 216 - $100
Corsair RM1000e 1000W PSU - $160
2 TB Samsung Pro - $120
XFX 6950 - $567

I'm wondering if the upgrade to the 7900xt is worthwhile?

Playing D4 but prepping to get mad deep into Starfield once it launches.

Amazon is the GOAT for pricing the XFX 6950XT card at $567. Glad I got mine at that price a couple of weeks ago 😁

I also got the card during that deal, but I have not opened it yet. If you have installed and started using it, how is the coil whine?

I haven't opened mine yet either and it was delivered a week ago so unfortunately I couldn't tell you 🤷. I already have an ASUS TUF 6800XT installed on my gaming rig which is my main daily driver, and I def didn't need the 6950XT, but since I got plenty of disposable income and at $567, I was like YOLO, lol. Luckily, I was able to redeem the RE4 Remake game activation key that was bundled w/ the card by using my 6800XT that's currently installed in my system since the AMD PV tool's product detection only screens for 6000-series cards. So, if you haven't redeemed your activation key yet then you only till 07/31/2023 before it expires.

This is huge from someone planning to buy the game anyway, effectively and extra $70/100 off a card if prices hold.

The price is what makes it overhyped. The cards themselves are very good. The price to performance ratio leaves a lot to be desired.

I hate that I have a G-Sync specific monitor that costed me $900 while on sale. I don't hate the monitor but I hate that I'm locked into G-Sync cards to be able to use it to the full extent.
