Hello, very simple question. I am doing my first build and about to order my parts, but I was wondering if the 7800XT is worth the leap and possible long-term gains over the 6700XT? I wanted to know personal experience from normal people, rather than a bunch of tech youtubers. Also if you use Linux, that would be quite helpful.

      Is it? I haven’t seen any problems since I put together my 7800XT build in November.

      Well, other than having a cable jammed against the top of my case too tight so if my cat jumps on it the graphics card loses power and the driver crashes… but I assume that’s not what we’re talking about.
