The progress is just not there.

I've got RX 6800 XT for €400 in May 2023 which was at that point almost a 3y old card. Fastforward to today, the RX 9060 XT 16GB costs more and is still slower in raster. Only thing going for it is FSR4, better encoder and a bit better RT performance about which I couldn't care less about.

Yeah raytracing is not really relevant on these cards, the performance hit is just too great.

The RX 9070 XT is the first AMD GPU where you can consider turning it on.
