With regards to the power draw do note that you seem to be looking at an overclocked card. But for that price I agree with you that the RX 6600 should be the preferred product. If the card were significantly cheaper - say £139 - then it would be a much tougher choice. Perhaps with your greater expertise you might evaluate the card and suggest an appropriate price?
Yeah Sparkle increased the power from 185W to 215W for reasons that escape us! Considering that and the general inconsistency of performance I think A580 would need to be £150 max, the lower the better!
A month later during Black Friday I got these for $120, making it easily the best cheap performance card of this new generation. Price has definitely dropped even at regular retail as well.
I actually have an A580 right now, with which I replaced both my older RX 570 and RX 580. It *really* needed ReBAR enabled and the drivers have been a bit hit or miss (also things like needing to use Virtual Desktop for VR because SteamVR and Oculus Link both don't support it correctly), plus there's also the issue of DX12 and Vulkan running way better than DX9/10/11 and OpenGL, at least in my experience. However, when it works, it's pretty okay, plus the AV1 encoder is good *however* I get artifacts if I try recording/streaming with an overclock. It's probably a matter of price, I got it brand new for 200 EUR, which might be a tougher sell unless you want to be an early adopter, but getting it for less down the road might actually make it a good option, especially with the drivers actually improving over time! Same as how Ryzen 5 4500 was overpriced when it came out but is an okay budget option now.
Honestly i just see these being adopter cards for markets like Russia, Brazil, SE Asia. A310 is a display card, A380 is a server/video encoding gpu, then a750 is the budget gaming card, a770 early adopter card.
The A750 is only $10 more on sale and beats the A580 and 6600 easily. Its the best buy in the price segment.
yeah but the power draw is much higher and then that is another 100$ for a semi decent psu for it.
I just refuse to give my money to Nvidia

I think I would consider it. It would have to be a newer model that has better performance but I think an intel gpu would be sick
We should all avoid nvidia.

$120 IS A STEAL FOR THIS
You think a dual gpu setup would be better than a capture card for streaming?
i wonder if this one day could become a nice option for around 80 euro used like how the rx 570/580 and 1060 are now

works on xeon kits?
Good looking gpu
yes i would
I'm making a white build and I dunno the blue feels like it belongs and the sparkle is short so I got it
Spray Paint
Yes
Im my country the Arc A580 is cheaper than other gpus. So i might buy it for a second PC with a cheap Ryzen 5 4500.
still slower than a card that's 3 years old
I spent over 10 years going with the "other team" with trash drivers and subpar performance I'll stick with Nvidia for the foreseeable future.
If video creation is my primary work, then yes.
nice
Thanks
You sound like mumbo jumbo
He really does lol
your right no wonder he seems familar
