Depends on the budget. Low tier Radeons are awesome, they loose a bit though on price to performance  for higher tier gpus.

I dunno, I've seen 6900 XTs for as low as $600-$650, that's around the price of a 3070 and 6900 XTs blow the doors off of 3070s in terms of rasterization, as in trades blows with 3080 TIs/3090s, while having comparable ray tracing ability.

That being said, the 6950 XTs pricing is still out of line, for the price of one of those you may as well shell out for either of the new 7000 series GPUs (the 7900 XT in particular, as it both has better performance and also tends to be a little cheaper).
