AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT: As strong as NVIDIA GTX 1080 Ti, priced at about 399 USD, released in August

Although the 'problem' of supply shortage in the global graphics card market seems to have gradually cooled down recently, the general situation is still very 'hot'. As a result, every upcoming dedicated GPU model gets a lot of attention from the community, especially for gamers, and the AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT is no exception.

According to leaked information from many reliable sources, it seems that the Radeon RX 6600 XT will not have a good price as many people expect, but in return will also own slightly higher performance than anticipated. there.

Specifically, according to leaked sources, Radeon RX 6600 XT is likely to be launched by AMD in August, with a selling price of about 399 USD. Of course, this is just the list price. With the current 'price turmoil' in the GPU market, the final price could be very different. 399 USD is a pretty high number compared to the 299 - 329 USD that analysts say, and at the same time puts the Radeon RX 6600 XT at the same level as the RTX 3060 Ti.

Notably, this is also the same price that AMD offers for the previously launched Radeon RX 5700 XT, which is based on a more advanced chip than Navi 23. There is still no satisfactory answer to the question of why the price is. such a sharp increase, is it due to difficulties from the supply chain? But if the RX 6600 XT's $399 price tag is real, it seems that paying extra for the RX 6700 XT would be a more sensible decision.

In terms of performance, the RX 6600 XT is said to have a power close to the Radeon RX 5700 XT and almost on par with NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 1080 Ti - with a difference of only about 5% - no too significant. However, this is just a rumor, and we can completely expect more because the RX 6600 XT will nonetheless be a well-clocked RDNA 2 GPU model. Overall, it will be interesting to see the real performance of the RX 6600 XT based on the Navi 23 GPU, but for now, the price is being considered as the biggest weakness of this graphics card.

Going deeper into the configuration, the AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT will be powered by the Navi 23 XT GPU with 32 Compute Unit. The card will also own 32MB Infinity Cache, along with 8GB GDDR6 RAM running on a 128-bit wide bus interface. As for the Navi 23 GPU itself, it measures 237mm2 and includes 11.06 billion transistors. However, this is still not the smallest chip in the RDNA 2 family, because that title must belong to Navi 24.

The battery speed will be kept at 16Gbps, bringing the total bandwidth to 256GB/s. According to previous rumors, the RX 6600 XT is expected to give a performance of 30MH/s during Ethereum mining, and in terms of aggregate performance, the card scored 9439 in the 3DMark Time Spy graphics test.

Above are all the notable rumors about AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT, TipsMake.com will continue to update when the latest information is available. Welcome to invite your attention to read.
