Last I knew the 7800 xt was the more power efficient 6800 xt. Some benchmarks had 6800 xt better in some games and 7800 xt in others but largely the same. Unsure if driver updates helped that at all.
In terms of ray-traced performance rtx 4070 > rx 7800xt > rx 6800xt (with the 6800xt about 14% behind the 4070 as the slowest of the 3 in ray-tracing).

Upscaling tech is a crap show. It was supposed to allow higher than 60 fps and/or higher resolution. We instead got crap optimisation and it's almost a requirement just to render some of these recent titles as playable. The most recent DLSS is better at most things, but the upcoming FSR will likely have both doing a decent enough job at covering up sloppy programming.
I think the market is still what we've known for the past 5+ years: bang for buck and gamers for Radeon, professional creators for GeForce.
