Sufficiently powerful mid-range gaming graphics card, introduced to the market in 2021. This is a variation of the Radeon RX 6600 from Asus, launched on the market as part of the exclusively mass-produced Dual graphics card family. In general, this card is able to provide a comfortable frame rate in popular computer games of the 2015-2021 model at maximum graphics settings at FullHD resolution.
At the heart of the technology is the AMD Navi 23 GPU, built on the 7nm process and RDNA 2 microarchitecture, with 32 powerful advanced compute units and AMD Infinity cache. "On board" there is 8 GB of GDDR6 video memory with a classic 128-bit bus for data exchange, which generally provides the ability to draw highly detailed textures. Such a hardware platform, combined with support for DirectX 12 Ultimate and OpenGL 4.6 APIs, provides the Asus Radeon RX 6600 Dual graphics card with 20-30% higher performance than previous generation models. A large 2.5-slot cooling system is responsible for a stable temperature regime, equipped with two Axial-tech fans with elongated blades and a heat pipe system. The device automatically stops the fans in situations where the GPU temperature is below 55°C, which ensures a quiet operation.

The Asus Radeon RX 6600 XT is a dual-slot modification of the popular Radeon graphics card based on the AMD Navi 23 GPU (RDNA 2, 7nm manufacturing process). Equipped with 8 GB of GDDR6 video memory, supports AMD's proprietary upscaling system FidelityFX. At the beginning of 2023, this is perhaps one of the most interesting options for playing in Full HD resolution. The Gpucheck portal, which collects data from tests in a whole bunch of games, and then displays the average FPS, says that at 1080p resolution on "ultra" the card produces an average of 136 FPS. However, these are average figures, which were strongly influenced by Valorant, Fallout 76, Destiny and other online games with far from the most beautiful graphics and modest requirements. Therefore, we go further.
Now let's move on to a comparison with a direct competitor - the popular GeFroce RTX 3060, which did not become popular only because of the greed of NVIDIA and the efforts of miners. So, with a resolution of 1080p and "high" graphics settings, a representative of the red camp outperforms a competitor in green shorts by 4 - 9% FPS, depending on the game. In general, the brainchild of Radeon knocks out a stable 60+ FPS in rather “heavy” games a la Elden Ring, God Of War and Forza Horizon 5. At the same time, the Asus RX 6600 XT modification can be bought for about $60 cheaper than the dual-slot versions of RTX 3060.
Direct competitor to GeForce RTX 3060
Finally, a little fly in the ointment in our barrel of honey. When the resolution is increased to 2K, the hero of our review begins to slightly lag behind the RTX 3060. And the higher the resolution, the greater the lag. Apparently, a narrower bus and a smaller cache volume affect. Also, Radeon is far from in order with ray tracing. It puts a lot of strain on the system, which is why most games with beams turned on often look unplayable. NVIDIA solves this problem with dedicated tensor cores and DLSS technology. Radeon is developing a free alternative in the form of FSR, but it performs best at low and medium resolutions, which does not make much sense in our situation.
