Our Verdict: Upgrading from Radeon VII to RX 6650 XT is not recommended as it is less than 30% of improvement in performance. In general, a reasonable upgrade is between 30% and 50% or more to justify the purchase of new hardware. The price/performance ratio is much better for RX 6650 XT .

AMD Radeon VII

Compared to its NVIDIA 's closest rival, RTX 2080, the Radeon VII was -8.2 % slower. For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Metro Exodus, God of War, A Plague Tale: Requiem, Dead Space, Forza Horizon 5 at 68 fps to 70 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 69 fps.

For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Battlefield 2042, Baldur's Gate 3, Armored Core VI, Anthem, Final Fantasy XV at 65 fps to 70 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 67 fps. For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Forza Horizon 4, Spider-Man Remastered, Call of Duty Modern Warfare, Fallout 76, Battlefield V at 64 fps to 66 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 65 fps.

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.
