Bought the exact same gpu for my first gaming pc, paired with i5 10400f with 16gb ram. So far been a great system and a big jump in performance experience since my previous gaming setup was a 2nd hand xbox one and a plasma tv😂. The card itself maintains below 70.C at full load maxed everything, running in room temperature. Averages fps in warzone 144 - 170 fps @ 1080 with medium to high settings. Overall a pleasant experience✌️

More ram and storage definitely the first upgrade. Then gonna upgrade to i5 11400f or 11600k. I’m very pleased with the rx6600

[@kingeling]

I purchased a decomissioned from mining Biostar rx570 8gb with a surprisingly better than average cooler for 1650 TWD (about 46 pounds or $55). 2 of the 5 ratings on that shopee listing said that they met issues, with one saying that the fans were making noise and the other saying that theirs was completely obsolete. I've been running stress tests in softwares and games and so far it's been running fine and at low temps. It seems like it was repasted before it was shipped and seems to have a custom rx470 vbios with a stable overclock. Overall, it performs much better than my 2019 laptop in gpu intensive games and I am very satisfied (Although the older rasters really hinders performance with anti aliasing turned on. That really makes it lame compared to my laptop's 1650m). Since mining in China has come to an end, everyone who's looking for a gpu should definitely check out eastern markets. Price drops are only just starting.

[@siyzerix]

The mobile gtx 1650 can be OC'd pretty well. Some managed to reach 2ghz. So that would be a solid 10-15% boost to FPS if you OC the cores and vram.

[@kingeling]

@@siyzerix That's only with a decent cooler. My laptop only has two pipes for both the cpu and the gpu. The most I can do that is stable and under the temperature limit in all games is 150mhz, although it can do 350 in a few.

[@siyzerix]

@@kingeling Do you just do a regular overclock or do you use the power frequencey curve to tune clocks that way? It'd boost clocks and lower temps Also did you boost vram clocks? And have you tried a repaste and proping up laptop?

[@kingeling]

@@siyzerix The tdp is locked, so there's no point trying anyway. Although I could try modding the vbios but if I ever brick it, I don't want to bother unscrewing the entire board just to get to the bios chip. And yes, I have tested with trial and error, and even had to change multiple times because of driver updates. I currently have memory sitting at 700 higher than stock. 850 is the limit.

I haven't finished the video yet, but I am in suspense already. After seeing Gigabyte on the box, I'm hoping it works.

[@musamba101]

I got an RX6600 when it came down to MSRP this Spring. I had a rig I had built last year, but left in the box until the GPU prices went down. I had an old 2 gig card in the rig so it would have something until then. I have no regrets with the RX6600. I had to bring the settings down for CP2077, since that game is so demanding. Other than that, games run smooth as butter at 1080p. I have a 60hz Samsung monitor, so I don't need my games to go much faster than that.

[@WTFBOOMDOOM]

I suppose your monitor is from the late 2000s? You can "overclock" it and make it run at 75 Hz. You need to create a custom resolution and in Timing Standard choose "CVT-RT" (reduced blank). It makes sense for older games that perform consistently.

[@wondercat6169]

Nice timing needed something to watch while i was tinkering with my monitor.

[@Raress96]

I just upgraded from an RX 480 to an RX 6700 XT after having it for 5.5 years and waiting almost 2 years for a new GPU. Got it for ~520$ (~434 pounds) which was really cheap (this includes also like 19% tax, so the price was well below msrp) and I am really glad I bought it. Finally the market is heading back to normal, although in my country (Romania), the market is still kinda strange, have second hand gpus with higher price than in store, and some in store are still high price, so you have to search for the deals.

I upgraded my 1060 6GB for an RTX 2060Super 2 years ago which has about the same performance as an RX6600 and yes you would get a noticeable bump in performance, the 2 cards are 70% stronger than a 1060 6GB so perfect for all modern 1080P and a fair bit of 1440P play too if you want too. A 3070 would be a massive upgrade from a 1060, getting over 2 1/2 times the raw performance. A 6600 at this price once you pass on your old card would be good value though.

I recently upgraded to an RX 6600 from a GTX 1070, the XFX SWFT 210 card to be specific. While I paid more than the price shown in the video for a new card at 300USD, the RX 6600 cost less than an RTX 2060 and RTX 3050 while performing better, so to me it was the obvious choice. The card is very quiet, stays below 65 degrees while gaming for 1-2 hours, and I felt like it was a worthwhile upgrade. I'd argue it's one of the best price/performance GPUs someone could buy brand new right now, and like shown in the video, looking on the used market may get you an even better deal.

hi, I hope you don't mind me asking but why did you go for the 6600 and not a higher spec card? the 6600 only gives you an extra 30 frames which is a lot but not a very big upgrade for the cash as the 1070 just holds up so well.

I got a 6700XT a Power Color Red Devil you are right the 3 fans are very quiet mine don't come on unless it hits 60c i love how quiet it is and the card has only seen 60 c plus once so i love the card plus the 12 GB of gddr6.

what a steal, i got this card @ msrp, only problem has been some driver timeouts, nothing a restart doesn't fix!

[@nKaizer]

This GPU is what I'm using, I love it.

“i usually sell components for the same price or less what i paid for so someone else can have a bargin” PROTECT THIS MAN AT ALL COSTS

[@ajlainez1944]

Have a similar pc, bought this a month after launch around 300$ flat open box from microcenter. It works great love it even capable of some 1440p gaming. But I have a similar pc 6 core ryzen 5 5600x 16gb ram and a rx6600 msi armor version.

[@pierregrobbelaar9116]

That's how i got my 1070ti 1 and a half year ago. It also didn't have a box but it had no dust or rust(gpu came from the coast) on it. I think it came in a pre build and they just swapped gpu so sold the old one to at least get some kick back. I got it for 211 usd but at the moment they are going for close to 350 usd if not more(during gpu shortages they were 600 usd). I believe good things come to those who waits. Get deals is a patient game. I waited for a year i almost bought an rx 580 cause they were cheap till i saw the listing of this gpu.

[@xAdi420]

Good on you for selling components for the same price if not cheaper.

[@RandomGaminginHD]

Yeah I like to pass the good deals on

[@crxti2986]

i literally bought this exact gpu model 1 month ago is so good i upgraded from a gtx 950 the feeling is crazy

[@hassosigbjoernson5738]

Although it's not sponsored you made a hell of an ad for CCL. ;o) [Don't know them here in Germany.] RX 6600 seems to be a really valid option, not only for 1080p but also for 1440p high preset 60 fps gaming as hardware unboxed tested it with 74 fps in avg. in 1440p. With that it's *much nearer to RTX 3060 than to RTX 3050* and when no RT required a really solid choice for 60 fps single player gaming. It's interesting that you test used cards so "early" after the ending of the graphics card shortage. +RandomGaminginHD Because I think the used market is only beginning to fill up... Are you going to snipe another RTX 2080 Ti, RTX 3070/ Ti or even 3080 right before RTX 4070/ 4080 are released? I do wonder if the older 2080 Ti should be the better buy before 3070 because of the VRAM?! I simply dont know if you can max out 8 Gigs in lets say Cyberpunk in 4K or 1440p with mods.

[@Badtaste21]

That's a huge cooler and a lot of fans for a ~130-140W card. I don't think it's necessary, but it can't hurt, I guess...

[@lucideuphoria7092]

just picked up this exact card for $380 AUD brand new. It hits 2812mhz/1900 Ram (fast timings) at 1050mv. Manage to get 100fps high settings at 1080p running cyberpunk 2077 at high settings with FSR 2.0 Mod running. Other favs like Project Cars 2 and Dirt 2 can run 120hz happily on ultra settings. matched with a ryzen 5500 i picked up unopened on gumtree for $130. Its paired with 16gn ddr4 2800 c16-18-18 and running at an all core of 4.5ghz. All up I paid $1280 AUD ($860 USD) for a ryzen 5500, b550 mobo, 16gb ddr4, RX 6600, 1tb nvme, 4tb hdd, Decent case and 450w corsair PSU alongside an MSI 1080p 165hz optix curved monitor. God bless EOFYS.

[@iiTzMYUNG]

Just order this for my sister and the same CPU so its a great video for me 😅

[@coolkaw4497]

this is crazy! I literally just got a 2 month old 6600 for $200 ($216 with tax) just now on mercari!

This channel had touched more grass than any other tech channel

[@Hablift]

I got mine asus dual 2 days ago... Updated from gtx 1660 super... AMD beast ❤️

[@hcaps3129]

Picked up an aorus rx 5700xt for £210, very pleased

[@RandomGaminginHD]

Awesome :)

[@minibotpc]

Urgh CCL! Will always remember when they tried to scalp pre-launch for 3090's. Got called out for it big time but denies it till this day.

[@sonnengalaxie6112]

very nice video!! Keep going

[@PaulJohn01]

Wish we had CCL or something similar in the Philippines.

[@TheCunningStunt]

You're getting frame rates there in cyberpunk 2077 similar to my RTX 2060 set to 1080p 'ultra' with a Ryzen 5 3600

[@GameAdderTV]

I bought this gpu for Rs.28000 in India (298 Pound sterling/350 Euros) 5 days ago from a reputable Retailer store it took me one whole week to decide whether or not go for this gigabyte model or get a RTX 3050 with no VR support from nvidia for some reason and priced similar 6600 performance is close or similar to 3060 and 2060 Super in some benchmarks and most times beats 3050 it slower than 3050 in ray tracing that's the only cons only time will tell if I made a good choice since more price dips are expected in coming months.

[@ShockingPikachu]

Got the card brand new, the Asus dual variant for the price of an RX 6400 here in Aus haha very cool
