I'm looking to upgrade from a dying RX 590, and I'm eyeing the RX 6950 XT, which I can get for slightly less than 800 USD, I'm wondering if that'd be a good choice.
It's mostly for gaming, but I kinda want to run ML stuff and blender on the side, so I hope ROCm works well enough for that, I want to avoid NVIDIA because of Linux.
Passmark's site has been my go-to for at-a-glance comparisons of GPU and CPU for a while. It just lays out specs and performance on a common benchmarking suite.
Looks like 6950XT has similar performance and favorable value compared to similarly-priced recent-gen cards.
You should look up some of the controversy with userbenchmark. The owner is a competitive shooter player so he favors single thread performance over basically everything. When he got called out by some big tech channels he had a tantrum and made pages on the site dedicated to trying to talk shit about them, linked right in the about page.
Dang, didn't even realize. Do you know of any better alternatives?

Unfortunately, I don't know of one. It may just be best to look at individual reviews.

It's actually really funny.
