Sell your GPU on Jawa! https://bit.ly/JawaGPUOwenApril23

When the RTX 3070 Ti and RX 6950 XT launched, their MSRPs were not even close. However, in 2023, the RX 6950 XT is available for far below its original price, while the 3070 Ti is still usually over MSRP, making these two GPUs direct price competitors in 2023. Let’s check how the RTX 3070 Ti and the RX 6950 XT stack up in 2023 in the latest games, on the latest drivers, with ray tracing at a variety of settings, FSR and DLSS on and off, 1080p and 1440p, and even Unreal Engine 5 using Lumen, Nanite, and Virtual Shadow Maps! Smart Access Memory and ResizeBAR enabled, otherwise GPUs at out of the box settings.
