Hello,

Looking at specifications on US website RTX3080 cost 300$ more than RX6800XT not 50$ as shown above, is it true thar RTX3080 is much better for ray tracing?

Yes, it's a little bit faster for ray tracing:

But not $300 faster. For those prices, the RX 6800 XT is the best option. Ray tracing is still not a mature technology, the frame drops are still huge when you activate it.
