I ask this question because I've read some people saying they have buyers remorse after getting an RX 7900XT or an RX 7900XTX when they were on sale. Actually IMO I feel that was the best time to buy GPUs like these. Some people also got a RX 7900 GRE, RX 7800XT, RX 7700XT or just went with Nvidia. Some people didn't feel a need to upgrade because their RX 6800 to RX 6950XT can still play all the latest titles. What I speculate is AMD and Nvidia will put out low supplies of their new GPUs, it will make them far harder to get and will most likely make them cost more money. So back to the original topic. Did you get an upgrade to the RX 7000 series, go with Nvidia, don't plan on upgrading because your current GPU run your games fine or are you waiting for the new AMD and Nvidia GPU lines to be released? I use to be caught in the FOMO syndrome(the Fear Of Missing Out) and I'd upgrade all the time when my GPUs were perfectly fine playing the newest games(perhaps with the exception of Ray Tracing, Ray Reconstruction and advanced rendering for professional tasks). I bought a RX 7900XTX so I wouldn't have to upgrade for a while and as I stated I don't trust what AMD and Nvidia may do with these new GPU launches.
Please I'd like to hear your feedback. You may not agree with my view point, but let's try to at least respect each other. We shouldn't be here to argue with or insult others over their own personal views.
Happy gaming all no matter what you chose to do.
ve been kind of out of the loop for some time. I'm looking to upgrade my GPU, and AMD seems to be the best option price wise, but the 7000 series cards offer the same performance as their predecessors. I'm thinking that next gen will be much better performance wise, but I'm not sure how long it will take for them to arrive.
Between 5000 and 6000 there was 1 year, between 6000 and 7000 3 years, and there's rumors now that the 8000 series gpus could launch by the end of this year. I think I will wait till then.
Is the reason for it the chip shortage?
