By far the best card for the money. Given where graphics cards have gone today, it's not worth it to go for a more expensive one. This particular one plays basically all games at 1080p with all (or almost all) graphics options enabled. Even if you have a 4K display, it's better to get this card and play at 1080p, which divides evenly by 2 in both dimensions of the screen, so there is no distortion whatsoever, and if gaming is on a computer monitor and not on some large TV, the difference will be hard to notice in most games. So yes, if someone is not a shipowner to spend several thousand for a graphics card, they should get this one; it's absolute value for money. And it doesn't have crazy power supply requirements; with a 750W, you're more than covered. Also, it's silent.
Although it has better features than Nvidia for the money, buy Nvidia with your eyes closed, there is no competition. I made a mistake and need to change the card
I can't believe it, I just bought this card, and as soon as I downloaded the drivers, my screen kept showing "no signal" every 3 seconds, it couldn't give me a proper image. I have searched everywhere on the internet, I have talked to the manufacturer and they will reply to me in 2 days, then I will take it to a specialist to check it, maybe the problem is with my PC or my monitor, because I don't know how you guys didn't have this problem and I am the only one. Anyway, I'm giving it only 3 stars for the reviews it has, it's a fine card, and at a great price, but I hope I didn't waste my money for nothing
I have had this graphics card for about 2 weeks and it is AMAZING. I play pretty demanding video games at really high settings and it runs comfortably at 60°C with no lag. The price - performance ratio is really good and it feels like we scammed the producer. I definitely recommend this product for a mid range gaming PC because this is a STEAL and I am really happy with my purchase.
It is the best graphics card at this price. Better in performance than the 3060 in some games. Fortnite reaches around 500fps in creative mode and 300-400 in battle royale. The 7600 is a very powerful and capable processor that does not cause bottleneck. I recommend it
Former owner of a gtx 1060. The card is the best at this price. Cheaper and better in performance than the 3050, and the adrenaline makes updating the drivers a very easy task with a very accessible interface. It is also quiet even during long hours of gaming. I have paired it with a ryzen 5 2600x and it truly enhanced my gaming experience. Now, as for whether it is sufficient for your case, it is better to check benchmarks on YouTube before purchasing. However, in terms of the card itself, as construction, application, and performance for the money, you cannot go wrong with this purchase.
The most notable card for 1080p gaming at a truly value for money price. Perhaps this is the best implementation of it (I also own the Pulse). No brainer for the money!
I have had it for about 3 months and so far I have no complaints.
It runs whatever I want without any problem, it is quiet and fits in small/medium boxes.
For the 200 euros I bought it, it was worth it
I won't even discuss the value for money of this graphics card. If you don't have much to spend, go ahead and get it with your eyes closed. I won't give it 5 stars because of the AMD software. Personally, I find it very unfriendly towards the user! Additionally, it doesn't handle overclocking well and it tends to increase temperatures a bit. Overall, this implementation by PowerColor is borderline... It's simple and beautiful and it can handle everything. If you have a 1080p monitor with 144hz, it's the best option.
The best option currently for around 200 euros for gaming at 1080p with proper temperatures and satisfactory fps. It performs better on motherboards with pci gen 4 and works just as well with relatively low-end processors, such as the i3 12100f.
It connects via display port to a 34-inch wide Xiaomi monitor and whatever I play, from Halo Infinite (with medium graphics), CoD Warzone II (medium graphics), GTA V (full graphics), it runs flawlessly. I knew it was for full HD, but it's perfect even at 3440. With 200€, you have a super card for budget gaming.
The card is worth the money and more, it's just that sometimes the fans make a little more noise, but if you don't increase the speed too much, it's fine
The best there is right now. The price at 190 that I bought it (August 2023) is a robbery. It plays everything at ultra 1080p. Even Shadow of War at 2k had 95 fps. If you want to build a good PC and you're on a budget, get a Ryzen 5 5600 as well and you won't regret it.
I have had the GPU for several days now. I wanted it for video editing to make things faster, which it did a good job at. Now I have also started gaming with it. I believe it can handle everything, but here with my i5 6500, it becomes a bottleneck. The Last of Part 1 Remake doesn't struggle, but my computer holds me back with freezing at the beginning, then it smooths out. Callisto Protocol runs smoothly on medium settings, GTA V runs flawlessly on full settings without any lag, and Days Gone runs almost perfectly on max settings. All of this on a 50hz-60hz projector. I don't have an opinion on 144hz, etc. My system is on Windows 11, and the drivers are improved. I had an RX570 4GB before, and this one is like a spaceship compared to it in terms of performance. I recommend it. Also, it came without a CD with drivers, only a card that said to download them from AMD, which is very simple.
I bought it as an upgrade from the RX580 and it's a real beast... Temperatures are not even an issue... PUBG on medium-high settings (maybe even Ultra, but you can't see the enemy) at 75fps locked due to the monitor and you don't notice a thing... Temperature stays below 60 degrees and the fans don't even work, unlike the 580 which was about to take off.
Red Dead Redemption 2 again at high settings with 75fps.
The only downside is that because the fans don't activate below 60 degrees, I don't know if the PC is running smoothly... Other than that, it's amazing!!
From RX570 8Gb to this one, the difference is day and night.
If you are on a budget of up to 250 for a GPU, it is a very good choice, especially if the price goes up to 200-220 max.
In terms of performance for 1080p, it is quite good, although it needs PCIe gen 4 to work at its maximum.
The difference between PCIe gen 3 and gen 4 is 5-15% depending on the title, and if you consider that gen 4 motherboards will also have a better processor due to compatibility, we are talking about a clear 15-20% increase. For example, i3 10100f b460 vs i3 13100 b660/760.
Because I am using it on gen 3, I haven't seen it reach 100% GPU usage with all that entails. In terms of temperatures, it is silent on another level.
With 80-85% utilization, you have a TDP of 90w, heavy 100w (bottleneck...) with temperatures of 50-60 and junction temp of 65-74c.
For over 220€, personally, it's not worth it, especially if you only have a motherboard with support for PCIe gen 3. It's better to go for a 6700/6750 where you will only have the bottleneck from the CPU but definitely +30-40% more fps.
Now, compared to the 3050, the 6600 is a one-way street since in this budget, the 3050 won't have performance even with DLSS or RTX.
Finally, and importantly, power limit and overclock/undervolt are greatly reduced.
We're talking about a PL max of 20% (the rx 570 is +50% and claims to be 175 watts with temperatures of 77-84 and sounds like two floors below), max overclock to 2800 core, max vram 1850, and max undervolt of 1120-1130 from 1150.
With these stats, you simply open the box, put it in the PC, and that's it. You don't play around with oc/undervolt at all since you'll only get 1 or max 2fps increase, and it's already silent on its own. Now, if you lower it by -20mV, maybe the junc temp will also drop, but even with the box, it is at very good levels.
It sacrifices customization with all that it entails for performance, but that's why it's also one of the cheapest on the market.
The rx 6600 is one of the best mid-range cards on the market right now, with a price significantly lower than the 3060 (which is slightly better). With the right processor, it runs every game perfectly at 1080p max settings and even a bit of 1440p. The card can be considered slightly worse than the xt version (which is the same as a 3060 but without dlss) and even the better 6650, which we can say is similar to the 3060 ti. Therefore, for perfect 1080p gaming and a bit of 1440p, this card and all the cards I mentioned earlier are perfect.
Purchased for €270.
An upgrade from an Rx 570 that served me for five years. The difference is almost staggering. I haven't seen temperatures above 65°C (playing Callisto Protocol at 1440p with Vsync) and power consumption peaks at 100 watts. I would say it's quiet, if you play any indie game, the fans won't even spin. The build quality is a bit lacking (plastic, no backplate), but for €270 and the performance this card offers, I think we're asking for a lot. Don't even discuss upgrading from a 470-480-570-580-1060.
Purchased for €270! So far, it's completely silent, although we're waiting for summer when the noise seems to appear. Comfortable in every game I tried it on. I believe it's value for money for the price I bought it
I'm playing cod mw2 on ultra settings, getting an average of 120 fps.
Using a 2k monitor and a Ryzen 5 3600 overclocked to 4.1.
It's quiet and doesn't raise temperatures.
Update: 25/12/2022
Overclocking with AMD ADRENALIN.
Min (mhz): 2200
Max (mhz): 2700
Voltage: 1080
VRAM: 1850
Memory timing: Fast timing
AMD SMARTACCESS MEMORY: enabled (Of course)
It has been working consistently since I bought it!
Update: 12/04/2023
Unfortunately, it started crashing a lot. I sold the card a month ago, I got frustrated. Whether overclocked or not, the drivers would eventually throw errors! I would get 3-4 crashes per month for sure!! Unfortunately, after this experience, I won't be spending money on an AMD card again
