AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT

The RX 6700 XT might be the high-end flagship of the latest RDNA 2.0 set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most mid-range PC gamers. On the other hand, the RX 6600 XT is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 379. AMD ’s xx00 cards have always been defined by mid-range prices with performance that knocks on the door of high-end graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the RDNA 2.0 graphics card inside the RX 6600 XT, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend.

The RX 6600 XT is much more expensive than the RX 5600 XT as it costs a whopping $ 379. Compare this to the RX 5600 XT, which came originally at a price of $ 279. Meanwhile, the NVIDIA closest equivalent card is the RTX 3060 which costs $ 329. Spec for spec, this RX 6600 XT leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the RX 5600 XT, by boasting 28.4 % more fps.

The RX 6600 XT has 8 GB RAM compared to the RX 5600 XT 's 6 GB video memory. In our synthetic benchmarks, the RX 6600 XT blows past the RX 5600 XT and, amazingly, even the RX 5700 as well.

Compared to its NVIDIA 's closest rival, RTX 3060, the RX 6600 XT was 9.3 % faster. Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RX 6600 XT consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the RX 5600 XT and it really justifies an upgrade.

For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Cyberpunk 2077, Red Dead Redemption 2, Hogwarts Legacy, A Plague Tale: Requiem at 62 fps to 74 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 65 fps. For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Elden Ring, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II, God of War, Forza Horizon 5, Baldur's Gate 3 at 63 fps to 71 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 66 fps.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060

The RTX 3070 might be the mid-range flagship of the latest Ampere set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most entry-level PC gamers. On the other hand, the RTX 3060 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 329. The good news is, with the release of the RTX 3060 Ti, the RTX 3060 's price is getting more discount.

NVIDIA ’s xx60 cards have always been defined by entry-level prices with performance that knocks on the door of mid-range graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the Ampere graphics card inside the RTX 3060, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend. Spec for spec, this RTX 3060 leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the RTX 2060, by boasting 15.3 % more fps.

The RTX 3060 has 8 GB RAM compared to the RTX 2060 's 6 GB video memory. In our synthetic benchmarks, the RTX 3060 blows past the RTX 2060, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER and, amazingly, even the RTX 2070 as well.

Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, RX 5700, the RTX 3060 was 10.3 % faster. Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RTX 3060 consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the RTX 2060, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER and it really justifies an upgrade.

For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play A Plague Tale: Requiem, Dead Space, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, God of War, Metro Exodus at 68 fps to 69 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 68 fps. For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Baldur's Gate 3, Armored Core VI, Battlefield 2042, Watch Dogs: Legion, Anthem at 65 fps to 70 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 67 fps.
