6950xt or 7800xt

[Kawdam91]

Time to upgrade my 1080ti.

I am looking at the XFX Merc Speedster 319 6950xt and Sapphire Nitro 7800xt.

Both are priced at £569.99.

Which would be the better purchase?

Thanks.

The RX 7800 XT offers the new FSR if that makes a difference.

7800xt probably uses less power as well.

7800xt will get fluid motion frames support on all DX11/12 games, I am not sure if 6000 series gets that but they might.

Sapphire Nitro are better cards as well.

if they had released the 7800xt this time a year ago I would be asking same question... alas I was 1 year early
