It's a bit uncertain if this is the real thing, but a bit of spy photos have been posted on what presumably is the Radeon RX 6600 XT.... Possible RX 6600 XT Photo Surfaces (OEM)
Performance rummors are similar to 5700xt which is not bad. 8GB vram is a good choice compared to upcoming 3050/3050ti 4gb.
Nvidia will probably have to revise the 3050/ti with 6gb or and 8gb to make any sense or not since anything will sell right now.
Thats not bad at all. And that I just left a 5700xt, makes me feel good about my jump too lol. Market desperately needs some solid performing cards that are not vaporware. This would be a perfect card for my HTPC.
On other hand X8 is the worldwide standard in workstation and server and you can't imagine how much "gaming" card sold for X16 work most of their time in X8 because they don't need more.
