Hopefully it has a launch price as in msrp close to the RX580 plus inflation ish.

Great, another GPU we cant get! :D

Rumor is prices are coming down

eidairaman1Rumor is prices are coming down

Yea, in country next to me, they are at "only" 200% MSRP. :D

Still improvement..

Theory.

AMD and NVIDIA alike are producing and stockpiling these lower end chips, like 6600XT, 3050Ti etc, I mean they're already in laptops but not desktops, so they exist and if memory serves it sort of bucks the trend of desktop cards first.

Both camps are heavily riding the wave of mid-high end offerings flying off shelves with great margins. This will end, it's already on the downswing, mining boom dropping off etc, the market will essentially flip and either everyone that wanted a 6800 or higher or 3060 or higher will pretty much have one, and there will be a 2nd hand market flooded with ex mining cards.

So with demand for brand new high end cards going to all but halt at some point, and they will finally flood the market with great stock of the lower end cards, that a lot of people wanted all along...

ahh the short end of the stick here. :shadedshu:

I would of liked a 6900XTX but prces are out rageous, I got a R9 290 vapor X for 460 in 2014...

I was extremely lucky (obviously had to put in the work too) to secure a launch day 3080, and local retailers are asking 50-100% or more for my exact model atm, why sell at normal prices to scalpers when you can just scalp yourself?

6600 xt with one 8pin. What the hell... so 6600 will be with 6pin? 6500 without pins? Better question, will there be even 6500 series...

What's so surprising? 6600XT 1x8 pin is there something wrong with that?
My 5600xt Pulse has one 1x8pin power connector so no shock here.

Wondering if there will be gpu models without additionals pins with good performance.

They were, together with cryptobuble prices, but cryptocrap is up again.

My guess it won't be until September till the prices come even close to MSRP.

Vertical fins seems very ineffective for a single fan design...the fins on the outsides of the fans will do literally nothing.

There was a post on chiphell forums showing timespy results for both 6600 cards.
Regular one is on par with 5600XT and the XT is somewhere between 5700 and 5700XT.
6600XT had somewhere around 30MHs

In terms of pricing it's rumored that he 6600 is gonna be around $300 and the XT 25% more.

Must be on 1/2 price with this cheap PCB and misery 128 bit bus.

ixiWondering if there will be gpu models without additionals pins with good performance.

5500 has one 1x6 pin if i remember correctly. I doubt there will be with a good performance level but who knows.

No idea what the fin shape behind the shroud is.

I remember cards having to use extrrnal power because slots fail to provide enough

MescalambaGreat, another GPU we cant get! :D

6700xt $900 ish and 6800 $1100 ish in microcenter still way above msrp but just being in stock on multiple places is move in the right direction imo.

Am I the only one that gets excited when I see an ITX version of a new gen gpu?

:rolleyes:
So.....RX 6600 XT should be much faster than 5600 XT right?
5600XT launched at $280

If 6600XT is more less 20% faster than 5600XT for 30% higher msrp, then that's garbage(no progress form last gen, regression in fact).

If that is the case........crazy world indeed.

6700XT is 32% faster than 5700XT and 20% higher price +12% gain.
I could make and educated guess and say 6600XT will be 20% faster and 10% more expensive than 5600XT.
$310

I don't expect 6600XT to have higher boost clock than 2684 MHz, and at that clock at best it will have +7% the 5700XT performance, so in the best case scenario for AMD 3060 will be 10% slower , also I don't expect below 160W TBP (VideoCardz report 2900MHz boost with 130W TBP) the logical thing for me is $399 6700 12GB -10% vs 6700XT and $329 6600XT -20% vs 6700XT and $279 6600 around 12-14% slower than 6600XT with at least 120W TBP.

Too little cu those clock speeds wont help with balance

Now, as the 7770 Cape Verde provide folks decent 1080p for entry pricing. It really gave rise to lot's of gamers the means to move to Full HD LED monitors, which where really coming of age in price.
If today this could offer that same equation in price I see more gamers looking toward 1440p panels that are now getting some better pricing.

While sure back in the day a 7870 offered good 1080p, I think lots of 1080p panels moved onto desks, as gamers didn't have to more than double the cost to at least consider a monitor upgrade and could do both.
Looking back at 2012 a 7770 for $160; today that buying power is only about $100, and that's with all computer parts generally lumped together. If considering just GPU's today that number probably somewhat lower. I'm no economist but say $300 for a card that offers better than decent 1440p seems like an improvement.
