Although the GPU shortage is over, there's still a hole in the market where reasonably priced models should be. There are only a handful of graphics cards available for under £200 in late 2023, and they vary from the idiosyncratic (and largely out of stock) Intel Arc cards to the ancient GTX 16 series. If you want to buy a £200 card that’s guaranteed never to have been used before, is on a relatively modern architecture, can run old games just as well as new ones, AND can do ray tracing, there’s only really one option - but is it actually any good?

7:15 I was trying out capping Jedi Survivor to 40 FPS in Rivatuner for this capture. As you can see, the frametime graph is rock solid. Highly recommended, especially if you have a monitor with a 120Hz mode!
Another great value gpu is the rtx 2060 super. Similar if not better performance in some games and access to more upscaling modes with dlss and such and is typically a bit cheaper.
@@nonaurbizniz7440 and greater power consumption too, where I live power is expensive so I took that in mind when I bought mine rx6600
Rx 6600 still a better option than Rx 5700XT because the 6000 series support amd FMF, and the last preview drivers improved fmf by a lot
rtx 2060 super is also miles ahead in productivity which is why i chose it over rx 6600@@nonaurbizniz7440
Doesnt make sense about 120hz monitor, as gpu supports 60hz monitor aswell.
Ordered an open box 6600 from Microcenter today for $145. They called me up and said they couldn't find the clearance item, so they were going to have to give me a new card instead of a used one and asked me if it was okay. ASKED ME IF IT WAS OKAY.
The nerve of them trying to push a new card at you like that instead of giving you what you order.
You should head down to their store and demand to speak to the manager.
Thats microcenter for you. If you can get parts from there they always have the best customer support
😂🙌🏿
@@SIPEROTH I would do if the nearest Microcentre store wasn't something like 3,200 miles
Lucky 😂
The RX 6600 is a great GPU, get it if you want something close to $200 that can play anything at 1080p.
Heck even 1440p, I rock a 1440p 165hz screen, and you can drop a bit a settings on most games and use FSR in 1440p, good 60fps experience in all games, and 165 in esports.
My friend got one for $140, with warranty still on until February 2024 I think
I have one, good 1440p card too as long as you play games that developers actually spent time improving the performance of.
There is a game called "The Isle" I play often, it's a UE5 game with pretty good looking graphics, I play it at 1440p mostly maxed out settings (other than shadows being on high instead of Epic) I get 60-120 fps depending on where I am on the map. Oh also this is with no upscaling too.
AMD say it only needs a 300W PSU, makes it great for slapping in a pre-built too.
Rtx 2060 super is cheaper and gets you access to dlss and such along with the any gpu fsr stuff and can play near anything 1080p 60/120 fps.
Got a 6600 recently for 200, bundled with starfield. Feels like the best hardware deal I got in years
Try $238 for RX 6700XT top model XFX Merc (with box and everything)
or the RTX 3090 I bought two days ago for $504 top model Asus ROG Strix - again with its box and still 1 year warranty. As good as new.

i remember being so dumbfounded when i found out about this card, because in my country the 6600 costs 66% (SIXTY SIX PERCENT) less than a 3060 while being comparable or even at times faster. i bought it 2 months ago and its absolutely crazy how people are willing to pay the nvidia tax. ALSO IT RUNS AT 100 WATTS MAX. its fantastic
rtx 3060 is still faster but me too i got an rx 6600
3060 definitely faster.. paired with a decent ryzen the caches will make up ground, but I honestly would pit that against my sons 3050 OC and 12,900k (cheap combo'd up deal) pairing..
They're all gated by bus lbr.
@@user-gz8wo5cp7tyou mean 1% to 2% faster ? yeah sure don't worry amd will fix that with their drivers don't worry.
Wdym? The rtx 3060 8gb is 15-20 percent faster than an rx 6600 but is 30 percent more expensive than an rx 6600. So amd's card is a way better buy and forget about the 3050. That card is horrible. Besides they dont even compare. The rx 6650 xt is better by 10% than a 3060 while being cheaper.

That sounds awful 😅
2080 Super would have given you better performance from the used market for a similar price. If not 2070 Super is still better.

I bought this card as a stopgap during the scalper pandemic after my laptop died and I went for a brand new PC.
I only used it for a year, but during that year, I had absolutely zero complaints. It was and is one of the best "I have no budget, but I want something decent" cards that have ever been made.
Think it could still be used for that until the 50 series comes out? If the 5090 really is a 50%+ uplift over the 4090 I might pay anything for it
It's a 1080p card. It'll be pretty damn useless for a 4K monitor, and I wouldn't wait for a 5090 if I didn't at least have a 4K monitor.@@arenomusic
@@OneAngrehCat I'm getting a 3440x1440 monitor but I don't want to have to even think about a new GPU for 7-8 more years
I did the same thing, I got my 6600 for use as a placeholder card during the pandemic. I used it until a couple months ago when I replaced it with an A770 16 GB. It was a great card but it was really only meant for 1080p, and I had upgraded to a 1440p monitor about a month before I got the A770. Then I sold the 6600 to a coworker
No Joke, 1 Minute before this video came out I JUST looked up this gpu because i saw it on CEX for a good price.
Go get it 💪
Watching this on my RX6600 + 5600X PC.. absolutely love it.💛

It's about the same performance as the RTX 3060 and costs less than half the price. What more is there to say?
Yea the 3060 wins by 5 fps but the underrated card that's better than both are the 6700 and cost cheaper than a 3060😂
@@scarfaceReaper I actually got my 6700XT new on sale for 250.
where i can find it for that price?@@autistvidya2215
Should only buy a 3060 for the 12 GB of VRAM and blender optimizations tbh If you are not doing productivity work, then just buy an AMD card.
Should note its a bit weak for vr tbh..had a 6600xt at launch and vr had issues... could be better now, I wouldn't know. My 1080ti handled vr better. Lack of cuda is a deal breaker for some people. Most games will do pretty good though.
RX 6600 is good at 1080p and capable at 2k, its cheap and environmental friendly(max 100W+ and extremely low 6.5W idle).
Such a KIND graphic card!
Who the fuck cares about wattage? Unless you are in Europe, it doesn't matter
@@Grayest_Fox said a dude knows nothing about pc. PSU limit is a problem, and low wattage mean it run really cool. The fans dont even have to spin at max speed, which is the top 1 reason why gpu can last longer. Heat kills your gpu.
@@Grayest_Fox 😂 post a video about ur pc, bet yo ass u dont even have a decent one.
Great review!
Been impressed with the 6600!
I paired one in 5300g system and they seem to pair well. Keep up the great work good sir!
The 6600 was my go to for my budget build. It was getting comparable results to my rtx 3060 and if you go to the used market, you can find this card at sub $200 sometimes even below $150. Paired with the Ryzen 5600 this thing can run anything over 60 fps! CP 2077 with the new expansion on Ultra settings with no RT at 1080p ran at 70-80 fps.
I love the RX 6600 for the power consumption.
I have the cheap custom model Powercolor Fighter RX6600 but the cooler is enough and the card is quiet.
Last week I got a "broken" RX 5700XT from a friend.
And so I have 3 cards with 8GB and "same" strength. Vega64/RX 5700XT/RX 6600.
How broken was the broken card?
@@Hughesburner It's a card from a smoker.
I need to clean the card before I test it.
Many RX 5700XT are broken. (10-15%)
My friend had many issues with this card but RX 6700XT works like a dream for him.
I'm on this Sapphire Pulse version. Loving everything and running anything I need it to do. Simple + compact, low noise and power efficient.
Thanks for the video.
Same
Same there
thanks for this video, recently a bought this as my first gpu in the used market for 143 usd, i was targating mainly 1080p gaming at a minimum of 60 fps, so far so good
Great video. That drop in core clock in some games, like A Plague Tale or Jedi Survivor might me remedied with an undervolt + messing a bit with core clock to reach around 2500mhz.
Got a 6600xt for $120 used. I’m quite happy with it. Been playing the new assassin cred on high @ 1080p with no issues.
Good video and thanks for putting together a realistic setup
I bought an RX 6650 XT for $220 earlier this year for my fiancee and for what she plays, it is an absolute masterpiece of a GPU.
I was going to get a 6600 recently but there was a sale on the 6650xt for only $30 more so ended up getting that. I think the 6000 generation in general are best value for money you can get for new at the moment. It seems like the 6700xt would be the nest value choice for 1440p.
On most of these you can also squeeze out a little more oomph by undervolting and maxing out the memory clocks without issue.
This config is the same for the PC I built for myself in 2022 for about $1200 USD (1000 on the original build, and $200 after realizing how bad the 6500xt was) so it’s nice to see how it stacks up in your test of the games I haven’t played on it! Love the videos as always!
U made an 1000 dollar pc and that too with 6500xt 😢 ... Insane 😢
Just an anecdote about Control, I've been playing it for the first time recently and I noticed the same texture pop in on some objects with my RTX 4070 (Max settings + RT). It was pretty noticeable on the portraits like you showed at 2:42, so I think it may be more of the game's doing than the GPU.
The 1030's a beast of a card, shouldn't have any issues running a measly game like Control @@N_N23296
Lovely card.
Hadn't used Radeon in 12 years and that was in a laptop, then i got the RX 6600 for my second gaming rig just a month ago. An HP z420.
I was nervous incase it didnt work, but it did, its gorgeous!
If i swap out that rig for a brand new one, ill just pop the RX in that one.
Been running a 6600XT for a year or so now and it's done well. Although bear in mind that if you pair it with an older platform and CPU like a 2700X, it'll underperform. Soon as I moved to an AM5 board with Smart Access Memory/Resizeable BAR support and a newer CPU it took off. So it's definitely better as part of a full new build if possible rather than an upgrade, unless you've already got a fairly recent CPU.
The RX 6600 is the only GPU that isnt overpriced in my region (South Africa). I am very happy with it even if it wasnt as cheap as US prices. I bought mine for 263 USD in June. I love being able to play modern games now!
Same here, I bought the exact the same model showcased in the video from Wootware
Also, from South africa, I bought mine in 2022 November for just R3200 or 170$. Though it was 2nd hand.
@@cyberlogic3102 good price. Where'd u find the seller?

Seapoint if I remember correctly
A year ago I got the RX 6700 10GB, since it ticked all my boxes - the best one that fits in my old OEM case, is strictly two slot, has full PCIe x16 and was a legit upgrade over my RX 580. It wasn't cheap, but the RX580 recouped a significant portion of the price.
Tech channel's like yours are always a breath of fresh air. Not full of complaining.
I have i5-8400 and rx580 4gb. I think that Rx6600 is the best option to upgrade my pc
Go for it, I had the i5 3470 & a RX580 4GB and I went for a Ryzen 5 2600x and a RX6600 and its a night and day difference. If you use AMFM you can basically double the FPS
I bought this exact XFX 6600 for a family member for 150 USD on ebay a few months back. Good purchase, good GPU. I feel like people have been sleeping on these, especially used ones.
Great as always
Got this paired with a 3700x for a really nice and quite power efficient set up. Can run basically anything at 1080 max or even 1440 with a lot of games, absolutely love this card!
best budget card for 1080p gaming
The test bench is very similar to my personal pc: Rx6600Xt + r5 5600 (not X) + 32gb ram on a B55. This gpu is great, efficient (Energie costs are up), cheap (180€ used) and is a good upgrade from my gtx 1650 on my old Laptop (which could only use 50w max. In some games the 6600xt uses less or equal watts to the 1650 for much more performance. Can only recommend it. I should add, I play only on a 1440p 144hz display. Also great for 1440p if you dont expect to play on ultra or high
I have an RX 6600 and 5600X combo actually. Great setup for 1080p, and handles my needs very well. I don't get the weird graphical issues on the newer games either.
I got the 6650xt for $235 with Starfield. I'd highly recommend that card over the 6600 for price vs performance. Do you have a comparison video?
This and the RX 6700 XT are so good value right now
Could you possibly test the arc a580 one day? Its in direct competition with the 6600 as of now
I have one, I think it's basically a safe recommendation to anyone who has a strict budget and doesn't want to risk the used market. It plays every game on the market but it will need some (usually minor) compromises to run the latest titles.
I definitely agree that if one is strict budget and wants a new GPU there is no competition truly at this price bracket but this does lead to the hardest question for the 6600 - if you save just around $20-50 you can get a 6650xt and sometimes a 7600 which are both a good bit faster.
Still, the entry tier pricing of this card is meant for the most budget minded and it does run every game and usually well, so it is worth praise for that. It's also better than the woeful and more expensive rtx 3050, which is actually love to see you review as I've heard people complain it's a downgrade at times from a 2060 and you're by far my most trusted tech and GPU reviewer.
Great vid.
they are faster in proportion to the price hike. value is the same.
cant wait for the market in my country to advance from rx 580s...
RX 580 is still a really good card in my opinion. Slightly better value than the GTX 1060 BUT they were hard to find during the mining craze.
@@Swattii brudda i have a 480, had to cheap out 😭😭, in all seriousness, there are more modern nvidia cards, like the 1080ti, but those are still around 300 or more (converted to $).
I was eying the 6600 and 6650 since 2021. I did eventually get the 7600 some months ago but I think I definitely would have loved the jump from 1050Ti to 6600.
I've got a very similar setup to the one you used here, so I appreciate the testing -- except I got my RX6600 $184 US with tax from Amazon (Although I've not seen them that low since). So it really is a decent value for a new card.
Very nice video Iceberg! Here’s interesting - friend in America managed to get a used 1080 for their system for about £90 equivalent. I’d say that could probably run this card close even though it doesn’t do RT.
Was debating whether to get this or a similarly performing 5600xt. Ended up going with the 5600xt. I couldn’t find any decent deals for a new or used 6600.
Wow, this a well produced video.
Yeah.. its a great card.. I got a 2nd hand deal on a rx 6600 and it was great for 1080p .. Big step up from my old gtx 980.
I then moved up to rx6800 and then rtx 3090 as deals and gpu market permitted.
Of all the cards I had in the last 15 months the rx 6600 was the best value and gave the most joy..
A great little card and very energy efficient.
I got an a770 for 250 cad used (bout half the price and some compared to new after tax). Pretty happy with it.
It does have some strange behavior sometimes but you get used to it.
I am presonally a user of this GPU and sometimes I want more juice out of it however, remembering what I used to rock and for how cheap one can get this GPU.. there's no need for me to complain. And this video amazingly sums it up.
I have a 6600xt, and both cards are great for the value. Any slightly older game is a high refresh rate experience, and pretty much any new game is high 1080p 60 (if the optimization is there)
How much voltage is your cpu running at? Any idea how much wattage it is drawing?
I want to build a new pc, should I go with AM4 socket based 5000 series or AM5 socket based 7000 series. like 5600x or 7600x ?
This video finally makes me excited for when I decide to upgrade from my Ryzen 1600 / GTX 1060 system
bought this about 2 weeks ago, its been amazing!
I owned for 6 months and it was a really good card. I did 1080 upscaled to 1440p with rsr and never had a issues. I hace a laptop now with a 6800m (basically a rx 6700xt( and its not to far from it
Got that card in the spring this year for £240, it was a great deal then and I can't believe it even got down significantly lower than that. For this price at the current market it is a steal.
I would love to see a revisit to the RX 6700XT👀
I managed to pick up a new RX 7600 today for $370 AUD (£192) so the RX 6600 might have some competition soon if UK prices follow Australia.
Will see but for sure 7600 will not beat 6600 on value.
Where did you get that from?
I got a 6600 new last cyber monday for $180. Insane value and was a great upgrade from a 970. It came with 2 games too
I currently have an i3 6th gen core, is that enough to handle the RX 6600? I'll upgrade the processor sometime after I get the GPU though.
Very good. Check out the 6650 XT, brand new it's only £220 now!
Just picked up the RX 6600 power color fighter from microcenter
Glad I saw this video
Same card I have in one of my rigs. It's a beastly 1080p card. Runs everything maxed out without problems. I do recommend changing the fan curves though since they are set as "off" until it hits 60 degrees C from factory. Put mine at 35% at 0-50c and then a steady climb to 100% from there pretty much matching the temp up to 100C. It's not necessary but it dropped idling temps from 33-35C to 24-26C and max temp never goes over 60C.
got an 6600XT during the scalper period and I paid a bit more however, its such a great GPU and it serves me well and might be here to stay
It is great. Absolutely. But I ditched it for an Arc a580, only to gain hardware XeSS and to leave the Chromium video flickering issues behind. If you like FSR and don't use Chromium-based browsers for TH-cam or social media scrolling with interspersed embedded videos, the 6600 is absolutely fantastic.
I have i5 7400 with gtx 1060 3gb. Would this GPU be a decent upgrade over 1060 with my CPU?
There's something I'm having problem to understand is that increased resolution at medium setting is better or decreased resolution at hight setting? , it seems like you can probably answer this question with an in-depth video.
I like your content you somehow make it interesting for me.
Native resolution always looks best, you aint getting close to that with a lower res and high settings
@@omegaPhix if you have two monitors from same vendor but different native resolution then what 1080p with high settings or 1440p with medium one's.
Bought mine last year for 280 euros, while the 3060 and 6600 xt both were still 400 dollars and it was the only thing i could find. (Heck the 3050 was 30 euros more expensive)
heeel yeaah brother, i got the rx6600 last december and i dont regret it
How bout the new intel arc graphics card?? Price wise, it could give AMD a run for its money. If you are able to get one of those card, i would love to hear your opinion about it.
the appeal of the 6600 for me is that i can just pop it in my current rig and be able to do things like VR and 144 1080p for cheap (currently i got a 1060 3gb a 4790k and a 550w psu, awesome back when i got it, but a bit of a dinosaur now)
I believe amd’s comment of the lineup being “complete“ is in reference to the physical chips not the cards themselves so they could still release a cut down chip for a low end card : )
I got a RX6600 used when i had to get a new GPU within my budget and PSU limet (I only have a 450 w psu). I am very glad about my RX6600
to my this is the current successor to the rx580. although hard to beat the value of an rx5700xt. i bought one of those back in 01/01/20 and while i've only kept it for like a year and a half, if i still had my 1080p uw monitor, it would still be kicking ass. but alas, i got a free upgrade to a 6700xt (bought it for the same absurd price i sold my 5700xt for), so i took it. and then the 6700xt was kinda not that well suited for my new shiny 4k 120hz screen, so i bought a 6900xt. which coil whined like mad and annoyed me non-stop, so i sold it after keeping it for 9 months and bought my current rtx 4080
The "Cheap + Good + Current - pick 2" is a pretty good encapsulation of the modern GPU buying process.
Originally decided on a 6600 but ended up finding a 6650xt for $210 so it was a no brainier.
Xfx cards look soooo good.
5700x3d is $210 currently so got an endgame am4 chip. Throw a 7900xt in and be set for years
I built my dad a R5 3600/RX 6600 system for christmas last year to replace his decade old Alienware prebuilt. He seems pretty happy with it so far.
Hi, can you test this graphic card vs RX 5700 non XT?? please :)
A good price to performance ratio is great. As long as its total performance meets your needs. The best price to perfomance will do you no good if it can only provide half of the total performance you need.
In Indonesia, you can get 6600 xt in secondhand market for just roughly $10 more than 6600, it is a better deal right? ($158 vs $171)
I just got an RTX 3070 for $280 and I couldn't be happier. The seller actually seems to have refurbished it, and the thing has like one single spot of damage that isn't even noticeable. Came well packaged, too.
Please make a video on 3080, it's 400 usd used and has the sam perf as 4070
5600xt (and5700 flashed) one of the last things to hit all 3. its gonna be 4 years soon since i got it at launch. my 3600 failed miserably already, but got a deal on 7600x and its going to keep this card alive for a long time with all the new bells and whistles not available on 3k ryzen/b450.
I had a RX 6600 XT and have been using a RX 5700 XT on a different build. These two feel the same in War Thunder. I am spoiled by the RX 6950 XT that I replaced the 6600 with. I feel it was a mistake getting the higher end card because I can't go back to mid range.
Got one for $150, was gonna get a 4070, but I realized I don't really need the extra power in the games I play on PC, so I also got a PS5 with the $ I saved.
RT Enabled Spiderman looks sick
I’m glad I got this card for 100 dollars on used market. Paired with R5 5500 no issue warzone 100 plus fps.
Love my MSI RX6600 with Ryzen 5 3600. Everything i play is above 60fps. Love it. Found it last year for $100 used. Instantly hit BUY NOW. lol
Is it good for 3d rendering??
I have the same 6600, and my only complaint has been durability. For some reason my fans run at 100% unless I manually set the curve in Adrenaline each time the PC is restarted. The fans also rattle. Software like MSI Afterburner doesn’t even detect it.
Hopefully, my ASRock model holds up better.
I have the same PC but with a RTX 2070 and in forza I hit 80fps in High settings. Paul Turton has a 11th gen intel with a 3080 and gets 70 fps on high with Forza. My build video for my PC is in the works but moving is slowing this down as decorating is a pain in the ass when there is only you to do it lol
I just bought it,it's my first ever desktop and amd GPU.coming from a mobile GTX 1650 the difference is night and day.i paired it with a 12100f.
do you think is better for me to buy RX5700 or RX 6600?, cause i'm afraid there will be a downside on older model, just want to make sure i buy the right one
Get the rx 6600
SO ive got the r5 5600x and want to get the rx 6600, seems like its an alright combo, some days i regret cheaping out on gpu (aka not getting one lol) and think i shouldve gotten the r5 5600 standalone but the gpu prices were so darn high 1.5-2 years ago!
Bought one new just to play around with a Radeon card, driver crash on second use. Put back on shelf where I look at it now lol.
One of the best card on the market, so hype to be getting this soon in replacing of my 1060 6gb
As someone that replaced a 1060 6GB with a 2060S (basically the same as an RX6600) 3.5 years ago and still using it, you'll really notice the upgrade mate. I bought this just before it went nuts, it was the actual last card on sale where I live but had I gone the day before I would have grabbed a 2070S. I got home with that underwhelmed feeling you get in these circumstances but that left when I plugged it in, the difference really surprised me to the point I'm kind of glad I bought the cheaper card. I honestly don't think in the scheme of things I would have got any more from a 2070S, just a few frames here, maybe a setting higher there non of which I really would have noticed.
Asus Dual RX 6600 or XFX Speedster RX 6600? Asking because both are on sale with the same price.
Will it pair well with my 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-13100F?
