Any GPU release is a joke right now. Press releases don't mean jack when you have to pay triple at retail.

That's 6800 XT, can't imagine how much would they ask for 6900, not to mention SE.

I gotta say that shroud with this color scheme looks freakin awesome. Its super crowded, but it still works.

And I don't say this alot. Maybe we can order posters of it for under $999?

Also. First impression when I read ARGB is someone getting choked horribly.

Lovely card, digging the looks of it. Unfortunately, the moment I spend 2k on a gpu alone is the moment I will find myself sleeping in the car.

Literally nothing to see because what are the chance anyone outside of huge mining conglomerates will actually see one of these videocards in their hands?
