The Nvidia RTX 3090 still remains the card to beat. Once to get to the lower high-end, however, things are no longer so black and white, with both AMD and Nvidia producing some of the best 1440p graphics cards on the market right now, though the pricing isn't always as strictly tied to performance as it used to be.īoth the AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT and the AMD Radeon RX 6800 sit a little higher on the dollar scale than their direct Nvidia rivals without delivering that much of a performance advantage. Let's not even talk about the MSI card in our Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 Ti review, which will set you back nearly $2,000 (around £1,600 / AU$2,700). At the top of the pile, AMD still comes out the winner in terms of affordability. Once you start going up the price stack, things change, however. If your budget is around this level, AMD's generous helping of VRAM here means that you're getting much better performance in higher-spec games than Nvidia's equivalent GTX 1650 can offer.

Right now, especially in the mid-range, AMD has graphics cards like the Radeon RX 5500 XT, which provide excellent performance at the $199 (about £150, AU$280) price point. Traditionally, AMD has always been known as the more affordable brand of graphics cards, and that's true to this day.
