Anyone bored enough to help me price an RX6800 TUF Gaming?

RTX 3090 in general are still listed for around $900 to $1K on FBM in Vancouver. But I have seen them as low as $800 and specifically someone did sell it for $800 here. I'm for sure not paying $1200 for a RTX 3090 since I can get two 5060Ti for AI work for the same money and end up with more VRAM and on a newer architecture. But RTX 3090 have way higher memory bandwidth comparing to 5060Ti. For people here $800 to $900, you may be able to swing $1K on FBM or Cragislist.
 
in raster it’s probably very similar to a 9060xt. Obviously the newer card would have much lower power draw and newer features.
 
Dang, even the lowest one on eBay completed transaction (ignore the returned untested one), it's still $430 CAD shipped. So that's about a new Arc B580 price but it got 4GB advantage over the B580. But the B580 is only as good as a 3060Ti it seems. Looking at old GN review, it's somewhat on par with 3080Ti and 3080. Looking at FBM Vancouver, 3080 is at low as $425 but that is only 10GB. A new 9060XT 16GB is $550 before tax.

Since it looks like ROCM 7 still support RDNA 2 so I think $380 local (matching eBay) and $430 shipped sounds fair. It may be slower than the 3080 for AI work but that extra VRAM helps with bigger models. 9060XT would be closer to $600 with tax.
