It seems that trying to buy a Radeon RX 6800 XT for the official $ 650 could turn into a real quest
All new data on the cost of video cards Radeon RX 6800 appear on the web , and so far there is nothing positive in them. Judging by the catalog of one of the British companies, for the overclocked version of the Radeon RX 6800 XT produced by Asus on the local market, you will have to pay the equivalent of $ 1,070 (price including VAT). For comparison, the official cost of a video card on the US market is $ 650 …
In the UK, the Radeon RX 6800 XT costs $ 1,210. But there is a slightly cheaper option
The Asus Radeon RX 6800 XT TUF Gaming OC is estimated at this amount, and it cannot be said that it somehow compares favorably with the reference version with its cooling system. Although factory overclocking is still present. But $ 1,070 is not the limit: for the Radeon RX 6800 XT ROG Strix LC with a liquid cooling system, you will have to pay all $ 1,210!
The cheapest video card of the line in the company’s catalog is the Radeon RX 6800 TUF Gaming OC: also three fans, also factory overclocked, but the price is lower, which is typical for the base model of the line – $ 930 (also including VAT). For comparison, the reference version of this model in the US is priced at $ 580.
What are we with these prices? The point is that Russian prices are formed with an eye on the European, not the North American market. Therefore, we can already say that Radeon RX 6000 will not be cheap in Russia. However, most likely not prices will become a deterrent when buying these video cards, but their actual availability in stores.
