ASRock Challenger D Radeon RX 6600 XT

Pros: A 1080p monster Cons: None Overall Review: I chose this over a 1660 Super. Was able to find a 6600 xt that was less expensive, a no-brainer for sure. Performance wise and financially. Thank you Newegg.

Pros: No problems yet, runs within specs. Overall Review: Runs half life Alyx on high settings with good enough fps. I’ve played a few other games with it, the card itself is doing well. I can max out non VR 1080p with maximum junction temperatures reaching 85c under 100% load while averaging 60-70c most of the time while not and the overall card stays around 60c under load and idles around 32c per AMD’s Radeon software .

Pros: If you don’t care about raytracing and like high FPS at lower resolutions this is your card. It destroys 1080p max settings in every game. 70+ FPS in Cyberpunk Ultra settings (no RT) 140FPS in Diablo 2R, 150+ FPS in Doom Eternal. Sharp black design, nice backplate Fairly quiet No RGBling bling Cons: Raytracing requires FSR in some more demanding games to get tolerable framerates. About 35-40 FPS in Cyberpunk @ 1080P Ultra Ray tracing and “balanced” FSR, (looks like soft focus 900p)…
