AMD Radeon RX 6650 XT

AMD ’s xx50 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 6650 XT, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend. The RX 6650 XT is much more expensive than the RX 5600 XT as it costs a whopping $ 399. 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 6650 XT leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the RX 5600 XT, by boasting 36.8 % more fps. The RX 6650 XT has 8 GB RAM compared to the RX 5600 XT 's 6 GB video memory.

In our synthetic benchmarks, the RX 6650 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 6650 XT was 16.4 % faster.

Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RX 6650 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 Forspoken, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Atomic Heart, Halo Infinite, Assassin's Creed Valhalla at 61 fps to 68 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 64 fps.

For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Marvel's Avengers, Cyberpunk 2077, Total War: Warhammer III, Metro Exodus at 63 fps to 64 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 63 fps. For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Death Stranding, Far Cry 5, Resident Evil 4, F1 2019, Apex Legends at 62 fps to 67 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 64 fps.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070

The RTX 3080 might be the high-end flagship of the latest Ampere set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most mid-range PC gamers. On the other hand, the RTX 3070 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 499. The good news is, with the release of the RTX 3070 Ti, the RTX 3070 's price is getting more discount.

NVIDIA ’s xx70 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 Ampere graphics card inside the RTX 3070, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend. Spec for spec, this RTX 3070 leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the RTX 2070, by boasting 48 % more fps.

In our synthetic benchmarks, the RTX 3070 blows past the RTX 2070, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER and, amazingly, even the RTX 2080 as well. Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The RTX 3070 consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the RTX 2070, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER and it really justifies an upgrade.

Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, RX 6800, the RTX 3070 was -9.4 % slower. For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play The Last of Us Part I, Forspoken, Halo Infinite, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Atomic Heart at 66 fps to 79 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 75 fps.

For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Hogwarts Legacy, Dead Space, Red Dead Redemption 2, Halo Infinite, Assassin's Creed Valhalla at 66 fps to 72 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 68 fps. For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Battlefield 2042, Final Fantasy XV, Hitman 2, Watch Dogs: Legion, Hitman 3 at 62 fps to 66 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 64 fps.
