Not a bad price for a budget video card, should get the job done for most esports titles

these are probably the same coolers they use on higher end models.
this should of been the launch price, not bad for a super budget 1080p gaming pc,
Not many 6700 on special.
Finally. This is more reasonable.
Infinitely better than a GT 1030, but you might as well save up another hundred bucks and get a 6600. For Granny's computer only, at least it will be low-power and has hardware AV1 decoding etc.
Since when does 6500xt support AV1 decoding?
Whoops, you're right!
This card actually lacks a hardware encoder, so not even h264 is supported. Meaning it's not quite suitable for HTPC purposes.
This card is just unnecessarily long considering how little power it draws. It's about 40mm longer than the Ventus 2x cards.
for that 720p gaming goodness… if a 7600/4060Ti is 1080p class…
It's still a 1080p card, in the budget side of things all at 1/6th the cost of a 4060ti.
Edit. Can play the Witcher 3 ultra at 60fps. The people buying a $160 GPU can't afford a $60 game, they are buying gog sales for 5 bucks.
Lol i meant it as more of a stab at the bullshit AMD and Nvidia are pulling with their new releases and calling them 1080p cards…. Even when a complete garbage of a card like this one can be called a 1080p card.
There you go HODLers. Slake your thirst.
I love drinking water from the toilet bowl!
Long card but reasonable price.
why put 3 fans on this level of cards???
Note: this card performs even worse if you're on a pcie 3.0 system (~20% slower) aka the system anyone on this kind of budget will be on which is why this card is rubbish.
Unfortunately the low end market is dead, nothing besides used/refurbed gpus and ewaste left (gt1030s for 150 bucks???).
A refurbished rx580 is faster, doesn't have any downsides on pcie 3.0, has more vram and is overall faster too along with a gpu encoder.

Same seller used to have 6600 for ~$200 as well which would be better value but they all sold out unfortunately.
NOTE: This card only has one hdmi and one display port.
Glad I noticed that before buying.
I'm getting a 2nd hand rx580 instead.
reason: my 280x is dying.. only has legacy drivers now.. and i need dx12
(z87 mobo pcie 3.0, i5-4750 cpu)
If your budget can extend to $200+, I've noticed that the RX 5700 XT sometimes has auctions ending in the $200~$230 price range. This card used to be AMD's top tier class back in 2019 and it has similar performance to a RTX 3060.
See Sold listings https://www.ebay.com.au/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=5700xt&_sa…
good advice cheers!
will consider it.. although i typically hate auction buys on ebay :) doesn't gel with my adhd
bought a 5700xt off marketplace.
seller showed it stress testing/warm.
benchmarks 3x+ better than my 280x..
so quiet/efficient in comparison.
thanks again scrimshaw you bloody legend :)
If I just need a card that will take two 4K monitors at 120Hz/144Hz, which card should I get? No gaming, just normal office and video use.
120Hz/144Hz, which card should I get? No gaming, just normal office and video use.
No gaming why you want 120Hz/144Hz?
Yeah, sure triple fans on a 64bit wide memory bus GPU.
If only they spent 1/2 as much time designing better cooling for their higher-end devices.
