Architecturally, there is more difference between the two than just clock speed. The 6800 uses the Navi 21XL, which has 60 CU's and 60 ray accelerators, while the 6800 XT uses the Navi 21XT, which has 72 CU's and 72 ray accelerators. On average, there is probably a 10-12% difference between the two at 1440p.
Compared to the 6800, the 6800xt has (the second number in each comparison is the 6800xt): 60 vs 72 CUs, 3840 vs 4608 gpu cores, 60 vs 72 ray accelerators, a higher boost and game clock (numbers depend on the aib model), 96 vs 128 ROPs, 240 vs 288 TMUs, and a reference tdp of 250w vs 300w (depends on the aib model). The 6800xt is anywhere between 10-16% faster on average, with the difference being larger at higher resolutions.
Considering the XFX Speedster SWFT 319 6800xt was on sale very recently for $430, the 6800 has been sitting at $430 for months and has already dipped down to $400 previously, and the general downwards trend of gpu prices in general (exacerbated by the release of the 7800xt), I can only consider this as a decent but not exceptional deal. Anyone willing to wait will likely be able to find a better deal, though if you really need a gpu right this instant this deal isn't bad.
Considering the recent $430 for 6800xt, this would need to be around 380 range to be considered a sweet deal.

So this can match the 6800XT with some overclocking? What's the difference?

You meant 30 series or 20 series? The 2070 can be bought used on ebay for much less than 400.
Yup. You can almost get a 3080 for that used these days. They are getting close to that.
….and if they meant 4070 by chance yeah, good luck with that. Not gunna see that kind of pricing on those for a long time!, as much as I think that's where that tier of card whether Nvidia or AMD SHOULD be.
Both the 2070 and 3070 ti are trash tier cards, I'd get this over those all day.
Respectfully disagree. I got the 2070 on 7/13/2019 for $384 and it's still a decent card. It ran Cyberpunk day one no problem. I only stepped up to the 3080 12gb OC cause I got it for $520. I know people don't like DLSS but having it as an option extends the life of NVIDIA cards. That being said you shouldn't pay more than $200 used $300 new.
It's a great card. Like some have said.... the 6800xt has been on sale near this price. I don't see either the xt or non xt getting much cheaper. Maybe when the starfield promo ends on the 30th. its a good price as used are going for $350ish on ebay and may be almost 3 years old.
