Our Verdict: With some tuning, the RX 6800 XT makes the most sense for gamers with 4K monitors and it is better than RTX 2080 by a margin. Though serious gamers hardly play at 4k. The RX 6800 XT is faster by 71% for 1440p gaming. However, RTX 2080 is still capable of producing more than 60 frames per second. For 1080p games, upgrading from RTX 2080 to RX 6800 XT is not worth it if targeting 60 frames per second. The price/performance ratio is much better for RX 6800 XT .
