AMD Radeon RX 6500 XT: New beginners

In the background of video games, the period of the 6th generation (sometimes referred to as the 128-bit period; see Bits and System Power below) refers to computer systems and also video games, video game consoles, and video games Laptops that were readily available in the transition to the 21st century considering that the generation lasted from 1998 to 2009. The sixth generation systems consist of the Sega Dream cast, Sony PlayStation 2, Nintendo Game cube, and also the Microsoft Xbox. The PlayStation 2 continued to be made in the seventh generation and also early 8th generation, handling to position itself in the market with each other with its follower, PlayStation 3, as well as corresponding competition until it was ceased at the beginning of 2013. The bits' category for consoles ceased to be utilized completely with the significant exceptions of the Dream cast promos and also PS2, considering that they alerted 128-bit graphics at the beginning of the generation. The number of bits pointed out in the names of the consoles referred to words dimension (Word Size) of the CPU and also was utilized by equipment marketing professionals to reveal power for several years. There were extremely a couple of industrial and also programmable advantages to increase the word dimension past the 64 little bits because it results in a substantial size to be refined and as the increments of the CPU records raise greatly in an order of 2 ^ N (where n is the number of bits), the difference is brutal for a 64-bit adjustment to 128 little bits which made the dimension of 64 bits or 32 bits were absolutely workable for graphic and computational processing requirements of the programs of the time. The base exponential boost is possible (8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024), however up until more complex handling is called for out there of desktop computers as well as video game gaming consoles, the CPUs of 64 little bits will proceed in the marketplace for a lengthy time till all the possible advantage is taken, both commercially and computationally. That is why from this generation the power of the console S was gauged by other elements that words dimension can no more reveal. The most current Authorities Games of the Dream cast were launched in 2002 (in North America and Europe) and in 2007 (Japan). PRO EVOLUTION FOOTBALL 2014 was the last video game launched for PlayStation 2 in 2013.

Two weeks ago we reported that there were already some confirmed model variants of partner manufacturers for the announced Radon RX 6500 AT from AMD. At that time, as a release, we had the January 17th on the note, but only today the new entry-level graphics card has really arrived in the market. We are expected, the AMD Radon RX 6500 AT is absolute shortage shortly after official sales start.

The price comparison of the PC Games Hardware just lists three model variants to which there are shop entries, and none of the three is currently available from stock. Of course, this listing can change every hour ago, but as of January 19, 5 pm, is the Asus Radon RX 6500 AT Dual OC for 379 Euro at Cyberpunk, the Watercolor Radon RX 6500 AT Fighter for 399 euros at Cleo Computer and The Sapphire Pulse Radon RX 6500 AT for 412.34 euros at Cyclotron. There is also the ASUS TURF Gaming Radon RX 6500 AT OC in the price comparison, but without shop entry.

Whether we can give a buy recommendation for the new graphics card series or not, therefore, is not currently at all due to the available availability. We will therefore wait with a special for AMD's new entry-level graphics card — our expectations are not particularly high, even since they only offers 4 GB video RAM. However, depending on the price, it could be an alternative, as the models below an AMD Radon RX 6600 and Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 have an abstruse of poor price-performance ratio.

So the question is: what does the AMD Radon RX 6500 AT cost if it is a bit wider, and what does your performance look like compared to the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1600 series and up to the AMD Radon RX 6600? Apparently due to strong limitation, as far as pattern models are concerned, there are currently very few tests of the new AMD Radon RX 6500 AT — one offer our colleagues of PC Games hardware. Accordingly, the big sister AMD Radon RX 6600 is twice as fast as the new RX 6500 AT. If this should also confirm in other tests and not only associates with an unprecedented driver, a price of around 350 to 400 euros would be much too expensive, because the AMD Radon RX 6500 AT would only be a little above the level of an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650, which you can buy from about 280 euros. We will probably publish a special in the coming week, in which we go to the details and possibly already involve the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3500 announced for the 27th of January.
