ASRock Radeon RX 6600 Graphics Card Now $180 in the US
Newegg is currently running a promo offer on an ASRock AMD Radeon RX 6600 Challenger D 8 GB graphics card—a code can be used at checkout to remove a further $20 from the already low retail base price of $199.99. Prices of this previous generation GPU are falling internationally, but Newegg's all-time-low price is only available to customers in North America. The recent launch of a successor (Radeon RX 7600) has ultimately caused retail outlets to lower their asking prices for older cards—VideoCardz notes that certain custom RX 6600 custom cards have dropped this week to around €209 in Europe, following consistent downward trends since new AMD and NVIDIA offerings hit the market in late May.
TPU's review of AMD's Radeon RX 7600 GPU states that this new lower end RDNA3 card offers a 25% gen-over-gen performance uplift versus RDNA2's RX 6600 (non-XT). The latter certainly offers excellent value at its current very low price on Newegg, with a saving of $90 over the RX 7600's steadfast MSRP of $269.99. Further drops are anticipated following the arrival of NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 4060 (non-Ti) on June 29, but Newegg's next batch of promotional codes could be less generous with discounts by then.

Great performance and low power draw/heat. He's getting the full 75hz on modern AAA games. Huge upgrade over his old 1060 3gb
surreal pricing
These numbers are inflated anyways, mobile 3060 is added to these numbers.3060 are still going to outnumber the 6600 by a lot but not this much.
Actually it seems they've separated it out nowadays. Good on you Steam.
Aside from that I agree with @tussinman, they don't share the same market segment...

It's awesome to see what budget AMD cards can do with power unlock. With NV, I have to shunt mod them - in many cases there simply isn't a compabile higher power bios for a flash. Still relatively ez but software is easier.
Keep in mind that the test bench I ran it on was an older AM4 with Ryzen 2700X so something like a 5800X would see a few more points.
Very energy efficient card. If I recall, I set MPT to something like 300W but it never pulled that high, more like 125-150W at the highest stable clocks.
