Here's the comparison for you against the other models:

It will go available on March 18, with a price around $479. They mentioned how on day-1 they will be launching their own reference cards on their official store, plus their partners including ASRock, ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI, PowerColor, SAPPHIRE and XFX will also have their cards available and various online stores will also be stocking them all on release day. Hopefully then, they won't see as many stock issues as we've seen with previous new releases from both AMD and NVIDIA.
Don't want to build your own system? AMD expect various OEMs to get building with them "in the coming months". They mentioned "more than 40" system builders are expected to launch systems with the AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT.
AMD also said to expect more RX 6000 laptops to be announced "soon".

Ryzen 6000?
I thought they are scheduled for late 2021?
Ryzen 5000 has just be released, no?
Still waiting for a good Thinkpad configuration to be announced.
Quoting: ZlopezI just hope there will be any available with the crypto miners going crazy.
If only AMD could do something to the drivers to make it uninteresting for miners.

Yeah, and as mining limitations worked so well you get convinced that open source drivers aren't the way it's meant to be played.

Quoting: GuestI’m afraid at 230W this card will not be silent. Also it’s very expensive. Also it will not be available anywhere…
Hey. i have 325W 1080Ti and its very silent.. just super beefy.. Zotac AMP... 1200 rpm usually under load and ~72°C
So i don't think thats the problem really.. just when the radiator is thin and fans are shitty, then yeah ofc...
See more from me
