ASUS also submitted a Radeon RX 6800 XT graphics card for review, this one is a bit more special though as it has been fitted with hybrid cooling. Yes, you'll see Liquid cooling applied on the primary GPU area, and then a fan can cool down some of the additional components. The end result is a graphics card that looks stunning and is very silent as well.

Yikes, did I just hear toilet flushing?
No,
that was just someone's xmas bonus.
did your sample have pads for all the memory modules? the one tpu received is missing a strip.

So, here's the thing, we did expect the RX 6800 XT to be a bit behind the RTX 3080 in rendering performance (and a bit more in RT) but we all said "This is ok, it's also cheaper".
But an AIB card is more expensive than a reference 3080, without being a better performer.
I strongly believe AMD priced the GPUs too high, too soon. They should have taken lessons from the CPU department, where the new generation is expensive but has the -absolute and relative- performance to back the price.

In these insane times we can't really judge yet imo, wait until at least January to let the dust settle, demand is unprecedented for most electronics right now especially the ones used to aid sitting about the house.
Lets see how pricing /availability is in January.

Hideously overpriced for the performance. Shame looks really nice, but it just cannot compete with a premium 3080 at that price point.
