okidoki.
Very nice! Did you at least get it for a good price?
Hopefully it will bring you joy in the future as well
good for 1080p gaming.
If you got a good price on it. Keep on masteracing, fellow PC gamer.
Enjoy!
Nice man, happy for you. I can’t even afford new cars so I just go on the used market lol
Enjoy it and stop caring.
I am rocking an RX 6600 on a 60HZ UHD Display and I don’t mind dialing resolution or settings down. I only game casually and can hit 60fps minimum in every game. Heck, even the Vega56 I just moved to my wifes pc does everything we throw at it, let alone the abysmal RX6500XT in my 15-year-old HP Z400 Workstation that Is my secondary pc.
It’s a good card for the price. What did you upgrade from?
Personally, I’m very happy to have bought my 2060 super in 2019 when prices were reasonable, and I’m gonna hold out until it’s unusable. I’m not a big AAA player anyways, who needs the hassle?
Got one for 300 last year which is msrp, which doesnt happen where I live. For context a 9070xt here starts at 900 currently when the msrp is supposed to be 600-700

Nice. That’s the card that would be enough for me (Im not playing AAA games and not craving for it) but I got (new) 6800XT instead.
Intel ArcB580 also is a fine choice which I regret a little not getting. 6800XT after month of using didn’t even spin its fans even once…
Point is – you’re not missing out on anything NOT buying latest overpriced gadget. Last gen and even earilier GPUs will run most titles (not on ultra but lower) available.
8 GB may give you headaches in the future, but enjoy your gaming 🙂
Not a bad card, btw.
Happy games at 1080p. 😃
