Top Story
- The Radeon RX 6600 XT is here and it's definitely a video card. (Tom's Hardware)
AMD jacked up the MSRP on this one because with cards selling as fast as they can produce them, why should the scalpers have all the fun?
And that seems to be the main point of contention in all the reviews - performance is fine, but the price hike means value is no better than AMD's cards from two or three years ago.
Well, performance is fine unless you want to run Minecraft with ray tracing enabled at 2560x1440. Then it plunges to 15fps - half the speed of Nvidia's competing RTX 3060. You can, of course, just turn off ray tracing, and then Minecraft will run on an elderly potato.
- There's also a professional version, the W6600, and there things are slightly different. (Hot Hardware)
In this case it's only slightly faster than the old model - but half the price. That really is progress.
