Gigabyte Radeon RX 6600 EAGLE 8GB Graphics Card, GV-R66EAGLE-8GD

My 1050ti served me well over the years but after upgrading everything else all that was left was the gpu - after lots of research this proved to be one of the better cards in my price range - i didnt want to risk pre owned. Upon fitting i can say this is a fairly long card obviously there are 3 x 80mm fans on the cooling side of things and a large radiator, this thing is very quiet. It is pleasing on the eye compared to some cards.Performance is great for your average gamer and im very happy with it - i play a mixture of city building games and racing games and it does the job just fine and is a huge leap in terms of graphics from my 1050ti.Installation is easy as with all gpus it clips in, you will need an 8 pin/ 6+2 power connector if you dont have one.I will update this as i go along and if i run into any issues which i doubt gigabytes quality as always is on point.Edit - 1 month down the line its working perfectly fine 10/10

OMG PERFECT for 200 pounds it runs every game in ultra 60-200fps for example starfield in ultra is 120+ fps ark is the worst optimised game ever but it runs it in max graphics forza is ultra in 200+ fps u get the point this is VALUE FOR MONEY!!!! amazing gpu works great with ryzen 5 5600 cpu and gigabyte aurous elite ax v2 wifi

I am not a heavy gamer but with my new build I wanted to at least be able to play some games. The RX6600 was recommended as a good value card.I have been able to play games at 1440P Ultra settings with plenty of frames for my casual use. In some games I am even able to set AMD chill to render less frames and save a bit of power. On a couple of games I have used the Fluid frames to smooth out games that clearly have an in game limit.The only real thing I don't like is the fan noise. On the default curve it kicks in once the GPU hits around 50C, and with my build generally cuts off fairly soon but you really notice it. I keep meaning to play with the curve to have it cut in at a lower temp and lower RPM and see if that makes a difference.

Out of the past couple of cards i’ve been able to run (the 6600, 3050, 3060 and 1660), this has been one of the best ones in terms of raw performance.As shown on the second image, testing my most gpu intensive game, it barely goes above 46%, which is exactly what you want. The FPS depends on the game you want to play, but from what I’ve played, it’s pretty remarkable.If you want a budget card that performs, this is what you want, hands down.

Perfect for 1080p if you are on a budget .Not the best for 1440p it has its limitations but if you are on a budget and 1080p is your goal like me,( I’ve bought it to play CS2 at 1080p )then this card won’t let you down .aesthetically not the best looking card , no led or anything fancy,still a decent looking card in this price range

Loved performance and price, sounds quite and temps are cool

Upgraded from a MSI gtx 1060 3gb, and wow, what a difference. I like the fact the 6600 fans only start once above 50c, whisper quiet too. Also shows the wattage being usedWhether it be idle at 4w or loaded 100w depending on games. Over all a superb buy and no regrets.

This video card's presentation and attention to detail impressed. The motherboard electrical connection cam sheathed and the video ports also had small plastic protective plugs.It needs an eight pin graphics card power cable - my PSU has a 6+2 arrangement and the only 'difficult' part of the install was persuading the +2 to align with the 6 to connect up the power in on the top of the card.Yes there are better cards out there, but they all cost a lot more, so for the price this seems to me to be a great buy. It even arrived sevral days early.
