Meh, the video is an opinion piece more so than actual testing and to be fair, it's not like getting a 6800XT for $400 less than a 3080 is a bad thing by any means. For his needs and his subjective opinion, it's perfectly fine. Heck, he even says he would rather have a 3080 if it were the same price. If I were in his situation, I wouldn't be paying $400 more for a 3080 either (not that I would have jumped on a 6800XT but I am not playing at 4k either).

At the end of the day, AMD GPUs only gives you some features where as Nvidia GPUs will give you all the features which is why it's easier to recommend. You like FSR over DLSS? Nvidia has FSR and DLSS so you aren't limited to one or the other. You don't like Ray Tracing? Nvidia has great Raster performance as well but will smoke AMD in those games where you may want to turn it on one day. You do content creation? Nvidia has you covered.

But in todays market where the prices are all over the place, you do need to take into account a number of things and what matters to you because these GPUs ain't cheap.
