Speedster SWFT309 Radeon RX 6700 Gaming Graphics Card with 10GB GDDR6 HDMI 3xDP, AMD RDNA 2 RX-67XLKWFDV

The XFX Speedster QICK308 Radeon RX 6650XT Ultra Gaming Graphics Card is an absolute beast for 1080p and even some 1440p gaming. It delivers fantastic performance for the price and runs cool and quiet under load.Key Specs:🔹 GPU Architecture: AMD RDNA 2🔹 Memory: 8GB GDDR6🔹 Clock Speed: Boost up to ~2689 MHz🔹 Ports: 1x HDMI, 3x DisplayPort🔹 Cooling: XFX’s QICK triple-fan designPerformance & Comparison to Intel GPUsIn terms of raw performance, the RX 6650XT competes well with NVIDIA’s RTX 3060 Ti and significantly outperforms Intel’s Arc A750 in most games. While Intel’s Arc GPUs have improved over time, they still suffer from driver issues in older titles, whereas AMD’s drivers are rock solid for both new and old games.✅ Smooth gameplay at 1080p & 1440p✅ Efficient cooling with triple-fan design✅ Better price-to-performance than Intel Arc A750✅ Great for AMD-based builds with Smart Access Memory❌ Ray tracing performance lags behind NVIDIA❌ No DLSS (but FSR 2.0 works well as an alternative)Final VerdictIf you're looking for a reliable, high-performance AMD GPU that doesn’t break the bank, the XFX RX 6650XT is a fantastic choice. It runs very well, stays cool, and delivers strong performance for gaming at 1080p ultra settings and even some 1440p gaming. Highly recommend for AMD fans!

The media could not be loaded. I'm a 1440p gamer and the performance from this card is jaw dropping, coming from an RX Vega 64 I've been using since August 2017.I paired it with a 5800X3D and sat it on an ASUS Crosshair VIII mobo with 32gb of some Gskill Ripjaw @ 4000mhz and a P41 Hynix for storage medium. Everything is air cooled, with the Cooler Master dual tower RGB fan being used for my CPU; I planted all my gear inside the monstrous Cooler Master HAF EVO 700 E-ATX case--a tower so big that this massive GPU is completely dwarfed inside of it.Historically, I'm a hyper-tinkerer at heart when it comes to my rigs with a compulsion to overlook, undervolt and tweak everything in my systems six ways to Sunday. This time around I decided to put together a system that was such a beast when running stock that I could feel comfortable with its performance and try to abate my obsession with fidgeting and micromanaging all my settings and bios. And with this build, I've basically found my laissez-faire holy grail thanks in large part to this particular GPU.The performance is so strong that I'm actually able to notice hardware bottlenecks when playing games that aren't installed on my P41 m2. The card rips through frames at such a consistent speed, the external SSD I've used for a secondary storage medium actually has noticeable micro stutters Jesse I ally when first starting gaming sessions and textures\shadows are caching. However, hese bottlenecks are completely nonexistent when gaming on titles installed on my P41 Hynix and the load times are absolute insanity. My machine boots to desktop from a cold start before I can finish sitting down in my chair if I push power on from a standing position and titles like Cyberpunk 2077, Red Dead 2, Dying Light 2, Elden Ring, Days Gone and Hell Let Loose are able to prey cache/initialize and load up in a literal matter of seconds. I almost feel like I'm gaming on alien technology or something.FSR2.0/Radeon Scaling already turn this beast of a card into a Super Saiyan Blue-level powerhouse. Setting games to 1080p while keeping my native at 1440p has given me scaling performance upwards of 150%-200%, depending on the FSR profile used.Of course Raytracing takes a big hit performance wise when compared to Nvidia's cards, but in 1440p without FSR that hit usually means you'll be playing at 60-70fps, which is almost always more than enough for buttersmooth consistency--especially in third person games. FPS shooters are usually the only time you might feel that the 60-70 fps range isn't enough, and that's understandable. Very few games utilize RT in a meaningful way anyway, so it isn't that big of a problem for me except maybe when I'm playing Cyberpunk 2077 or Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition. RT looks incredible in Control, however, and it plays smooth as glass as well.The other things I'm completely enamored by with this card are its temps both idle and under load, and its noise output. This thing is ninja quiet at peak load even two or three hours into a heavy Hell Let Loose or Battlefield 5 gaming session, and temperatures hardly ever exceed 60c after hours of playing. The highest I've seen this thing ever go is 68c during ARK Survival Evolved, and that is such an horribly optimized title I didn't give it much gravitas since performance in everything else I play is substantially/significantly cooler. 50-55c under load in many games is common.The only con I had with this card was video playback stuttering like crazy whenever I watched Hulu in the desktop app or when I watched Netflix/Tubi/HBOMax/Disney+/Apple TV+ in Microsoft Edge and Opera GX. However, I was able to fix this buy disabling Hardware Acceleration in Edge (this also fixed playback stuttering in the Hulu app because it runs in an Edge window and uses HTML5 as its API) and in Opera GX. Mind you, thr playback stuttering was -only- in the browser version of each streaming platform. Their standalone apps worked perfectly from the get-go (except Hulu cuz HTML5 as explained above) because they run in programs with .NET APIs or other compiled libraries. After fixing my video stuttering problem (also a known problem to AMD per their Adrenalin driver update notes), this card has yet to show me a single flaw or leave me unhappy with its performance.I never knew games could ever look or feel this good to play. The performance almost feels ... Magical, for lack of a better and less geeky way of describing it. Getting it on sale for over $100 off the usual price certainly adds to its charm as well.Here's to at least another 5 years of use! 5/5 A+ to AMD, what a killer piece of tech!

(CPU USED: i7 14700K)I got this card for sub $500, making it a superb purchase, cheaper than a 7900 GRE and better than a 7800 XT. I have used it with both 2560 x 1080p and 3440 x 1440p. Stock it works excellent for 1080p 21:9 gaming, you can feel confident about what you want to play with it. It is certainly an above "60FPS" card for 21:9 1080p and 1440p in most cases when it comes to cinematic, highly graphical games - especially when paired with a powerful CPU.I personally used 2560 x 1080p or UWFHD with this card and was not disappointed at all, however, the 21:9 29"/30" monitor segment is lacking and I eventually upgraded to a Mini-LED 34" 3440 x 1440p monitor.At 3440 x 1440p some titles, which are "cinematic" oriented, may require FSR while using maxed settings, but thats to be expected at this point its either twice or nearly twice the performance cost of 1080p depending on aspect ratio. However, for a sub $500 card, thats not bad. If you're not a cinematic gamer, and tend to play games designed for large audiences, then this card will surely perform excellent even at 3440 x 1440p.Personally, based on the games that I play, I could get away with this card for several years utilizing 3440 x 1440p until the 7900 XTX becomes similarly bargained. This brings up a drawback, if you get this card, your only upgrade choice becomes the 7900 XTX if you're AMD oriented. You'll be paying around $650-$700 for 17% more performance, even less if your card can overclock well. The 7900 XTX, being 34% better, would be a more logical upgrade choice.My overclock grants me 10.6% increase in performance, making the 7900 XT 6.4% better, and the 7900 XTX 23.4% Better without factoring RT capacity at all. Based on cost to performance relativity.This overclock has been stable for over 200 hours of gaming across various stressful titles with no crashing. So I consider it a permanent allowance and therefore design of the card.My overclock is:Power Limit: 20%Clocks: 2600/2700Voltage: 1100mVMemory: 2350 + Fast TimingsSo to sum things up,1. Wonderful Sub $500 purchase if you can find it for that price, new in box.2. A 3 Year warranty with performance that can make you feel comfortable through that time period.3. Overclock can bring it very close to the 7900 XT with confidence.4. 1440p aspect ratio performance is comfortable, but truly shines in 1080p aspect ratios.Things to remember:1. If you invest in this card your only next option is a 7900 XTX or you're be spending more $$ per Performance %2. Might not offer the next gen architecture technology experience, if that concerns you.3. Only viable at a specific price point that may not be guaranteed to always be available
