Though, in our experience, this version of the graphics card stayed well under that 160W threshold, even in extremely demanding games like Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition, peaking at 146W of power. That's less than the RTX 3060 or the RTX 2060 Super, which peaked at 169W and 183W, respectively. Starting with Assassin's Creed Valhalla, the 6600 XT gets off to a flyer, beating the RTX 3060 Ti by a convincing 13% margin and the standard 3060 by a massive 31%. We're looking at RTX 3070 Ti-like performance in this game, while still lagging behind the 6700 XT. Watch Dogs: Legion is another game where the 6600 XT proves its essentially a 5700 XT in terms of performance. With 72 fps on average, it found itself situated between the RTX 3060 Ti and 3060 at 1080p, but that meant it was 18% slower than the 6700 XT, which isn't a bad result.

Starting with the 1080p data, we see that the 6600 XT was 3% faster on average, meaning they're basically identical overall across a wide range of games as we deem anything within 5% a draw. That means for 20 of the 50 games tested performance was near enough to "identical" with margins 4% or less. There is a lot more variation, for good or ill, when you look at the green line of GeForce 3DMark scores.The last set of results we're going to look at are for Cyberpunk 2077 and here the 6600 XT was 9% faster using the high quality settings at 1080p. Both GPUs are best suited to 1080p gaming in this title as the slightly dialed down quality settings saw just 44 fps rendered on average at 1440p. Performance Summary Whether or not AMD can tempt us with the Radeon RX 6650 XT has yet to be seen, but we're keen to look into that very soon. Shopping Shortcuts:

In terms of performance, the AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT is equivalent to the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060. How much cache and memory does the AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT have?We also found a 5% reduction in performance when testing with Death Stranding and this saw the 6600 XT go from slightly leading the 3060 Ti to trailing it by a small margin. Apparently, they accomplished that task. Whether or not the MSRP will have to be adapted: we will see,but I guess not as long as the global GPU shortage lasts.

Radeon™ Pro Software for Enterprise is tested against over 100 professional applications.

The Rainbow Six Extraction performance was comparable with both GPUs delivering over 130 fps at 1080p. The RTX 3060 did edge ahead by a 7% margin at 1440p, but overall performance was very similar.I know this is a lot to ask but given the ridicolous MSRP you might want to design a benchmark of discounted games (you could use isthereanydeal to see which ones have been at least once 50% off) that would be good to use with lower end cards or ones available used for acceptable prices.
