AMD recently released some exciting new hardware, and you might be wondering where to buy the Radeon RX 6000 graphics cards (GPU) now that they're released. These cards compete with NVIDIA's RTX 30-series GPUs and make a strong claim for the top spots of our best graphics card roundup. Now that all three flagship cards, including the RX 6900 XT, RX 6800 XT, and RX 6800, have been released, let's take a look at the best spots to shop for the new AMD GPUs.
Where to buy the AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT

The AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT went on sale November 18, albeit without a ton of stock on day one. This has remained true ever since, with most major retailers out of stock and scalpers taking advantage with jacked-up prices. In any case, there are plenty of listings to check out.
Amazon has a number of RX 6800 XT cards, including those from Sapphire, PowerColor, and XFX. Some listings have prices from third-party retailers, but these are best avoided due to prices far higher than standard retail.
Best Buy also has a number of RX 6800 XT GPUs, though none are in stock at time of writing. Check out options from XFX, MSI, and XFX. Best Buy also has some pre-built PCs with the RX 6800 XT inside, though these are also sold out at time of writing.
Newegg has the largest variety of RX 6800 XT cards, though none are in stock at time of writing. Check out options from XFX, Sapphire, ASRock, ASUS, PowerColor, MSI, and more.
Awesome 4K Gaming
AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT
This powerful GPU is built on AMD's RDNA 2 architecture. It can handle 4K gaming, ray tracing, and stacks up against the NVIDIA RTX 3080.

Like the RX 6800 XT, the RX 6800 wasn't easy to find at launch and has remained so ever since. Amazon has options from Sapphire, ASUS, PowerColor, XFX, and more, though if any are in stock, they're at extortionate prices from third-party sellers.
Best Buy is another retailer with a bunch of options and nothing in stock (at least at time of writing). Options from MSI and XFX are listed.
Newegg again has the most variety, though none are in stock at time of writing. Check out options from ASUS, Sapphire, XFX, ASRock, Gigabyte, PowerColor, and more.

AMD Radeon RX 6800

The AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT is the final of the initial three 6000-series cards to launch, and AMD has saved the most power for last. If you were looking to snag this powerhouse GPU right off the hop, chances are you were disappointed. Like the RX 6800 and RX 6800 XT, the RX 6900 XT stock was limited at launch and remains so today.
Amazon has listings from Sapphire, XFX, ASUS, and more, though most are sold out at the time of writing. Demand for this card isn't quite as high due to the elevated pricing (even with scalpers), so be sure to check back often to see if you can snag one at a modest price.
Best Buy is another place to check, with options from MSI and XFX. There are also a number of pre-built PCs containing the RX 6900 XT, though everything is sold out at time of writing.
As usual, Newegg has the widest selection, including options from ASRock, Sapphire, ASUS, PowerColor, and Gigabyte. All are sold out at time of writing.
6000-Series Beast
AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT
If you're looking for the most power of the three initial RX 6000-series GPUs, this is it. Just cross your fingers and hope you find one for sale.
Which RX 6000 GPU should you buy?
These GPUs might be almost impossible to find, but that doesn't mean you're not wondering which AMD Radeon RX 6000 GPU you should buy. As a bottom line, stick with the RX 6800 XT if you'd like to game at 4K or 1440p. Go with the RX 6800 if you prefer sticking with 1440p and dabbling in 4K. And go with the RX 6900 XT if you're looking to go all-in with 4K gaming.
