- USED GRAPHICS CARDS!!! I know this is something that everyone wrestles with because their value is SO intriguing... I finally have a decent variety of budget GPUs to test... HERE WE GO!
System Specs:
CPU: r7 5800x3D
Cooler: Thermalright Peerless Assassin
MB: MSI B350 PC MATE
RAM: 2x16gb 3600 MT/s, CL18
Boot: Samsung 2tb 980 pro (in gen 3)
Case: Phanteks P300a (side panel off)
Some downsides of used GPUs is they are older which means less driver updates into the future, usually worse power efficiency, parts are more prone to failure, and you won't really have a warranty. However, if you do some investigating (which we do here) you can improve your odds dramatically to be in a good position. Is that worth the lower price and possibly better performance though?? Let's find out!

the power efficiency of 6600 is actually so crazy
Yeah, i just bought 6600 used on marketplace and amaze how efficient this card, i was playing dmc 5 with high setting lock to 60fps via adrenaline the card only use around 35w
I mean it loooks like its just power limited to 100W, could easily bypass that and beat the 5700XT imo
oh if i want want pe i would buy 1030, fps is what matters
@@lordadnan6554 never heard of balance? Not everyone can give the luxury to endure a 4090 level of power drawn with a overclocked i9.
@@lordadnan6554 You're the reason why cards like Nvidia Fermi generation exists, all you care is framerates, framerates, blah blah blah, imagine if 4090 would only need 150W, the world is not just USA buddy, i'll bet a million dollar that a single 4090 could power an entire village somewhere in this world.
I faced the exact dilema of the thumbnail. I live in Brazil, so a used 5700xt was 900BRL, a new 6600 was 1200BRL. Ended up buying the 6600 because I got 2 years of warranty plus its a newer card so it has more acess to new technologies like mesh shaders (not like it will run well, but at least will be better than the 5700xt at it lol). And a big thing, it runs cooler and uses way less power. Im happy with it.
900BRL + taxes. So in the end is more expensive than a 6600.
Que bom ver outros BRs aqui. Quando o ali ainda tava de boa, eu peguei uma RX 6800 por 2,400 sem taxa do amor. Placa absurda de forte. E entre a 5700xt e a 6600 nova, sem dúvida alguma iria na 6600. Fez uma boa escolha brother
tambem comprei uma 6600 vindo de uma 1050 ti e te falar que mesmo sendo uma placa de entrada eu to bem satisfeito
Eu peguei duas 5700XL pra vender qnd batesse a taxa do amor por uns 800 reais cada, vendi uma por 1200 pq era triple fan no mercado livre e a outra por 800 e uns quebrado, aí hj tô com uma 6700 XT
Antes da rapaziada fazer o L e foder o Aliexpress eu tinha pego a RX6600M por 890 reais, isso há 1 ano atrás. Hoje em dia já tem ela por 1200 no Brasil mesmo a vista né mas está valendo. Placa muito boa, puxa só 100watts, temperatura boa. Só os drivers que são meio ruins. Queria a RTX 3060 né mas pro brasileiro o que resta é a querida AMD mesmo.
A750 is so weird. Sometimes maybe good sometimes maybe shit
That’s how all intels gpus are, they have the most unpredictable preformace and therefore nobody buys them
@@perkzy5146yep I also wouldn't go with one
@@perkzy5146 Same. I'd just pick up a 3060 instead.
Lmao. How are you expecting a perfect first gen product 😂😂
I'm waiting for second gen to consider intel
I had a very specific dilemma where I wanted to replace my 1070 but still wanted the card to fit inside my tiny Dan A4-SFX case. When practically none of the Radeon 7000 cards ended up being true 2-slot sized, I finally picked up a used reference model 6800 (non-XT) which is currently one of the most powerful cards to fit my super compact case. Inno3D makes a 4070Ti with similar dimensions but it's far pricier and with less VRAM. I am very happy with my 6800 and it's a big boost from the 1070. I've had no issues buying used component thus far.
I also upgraded from a 1070 to an RX 6800 and I have the reference as well, although my case has plenty of room lol. Great card tho, massive performance jump over the 1070 at similar power draw. Mine is a good overclocker too
@@Jimmy-uk8dfWhat PSU do you have? The 6800/6900 series have some power spikes that can trip and shut down most PSUs so I'm wondering how's that going out for you
@@Jimmy-uk8df same bought mine for 400 dolares 1 year ago 2nd hand. my gtx 1070 was 2nd hand too and was a great card
@@hsko8007 I have a 700W Thermaltake Smart unit. Nothing fancy or high end, but it handles the RX 6800 very well
I had the 5700 XT before upgrading to my 3080 and it was a beast of a card. Even in 2021, I was using it to play games at 1440P high/ultra and was able to get 60fps or greater most of the time. Im sure I'd still get by fine with it now.
Why did you upgrade it if it was so good? Are you stupid or something
Got a used RX6800 for about the same price as a new RX7600...ex mining but 1 year waranty with ebay 30day buyer protection...been a week in use now, working well and is playing my game library at 4k 60fps. Also with undervolting I have got it running under 180watts peak.
Overall it definitely seems like the RX 5700 XT is the better buy, but specifically living in a country with stupidly expensive energy costs the 5700 XT just isn't an option for me. It's damn interesting to see the 5700 XT consistently trading blows with and outperforming the 6600 (even if it's not surprising given the 128 bit bus). Also Intel in the mix, good to see! I hope they keep working on their drivers, a third option in the GPU market is something desperately needed to kick Nvidia and AMD's ass on pricing and give us genuinely compelling entry level options.
Nice vid Vex, keep it up! :)
Also don’t forget about the rx 5600 xt. Might be a little cheaper than the 5700xt but still seems like a decent performer. I picked one up on eBay a while back for 85 bucks shipped. Planning to upgrade soon but for what it is it’s not a bad card. I’ve seen some around 100 bucks and some claiming to be new around 120-125.
I picked a "open box" (they couldn't find the open box so I got a new one instead) 6600 from Microcenter for $145 recently. Plays lots of games great even at 1440p, always glad to have fresh video ideas. Enjoying it a lot! Tweak some settings and enjoy the card you have.
Nice! Talk about the deal of the century!
Heh cool
5700XT always had more TFLOPS than 6600, so this is not surprising. Real matchup would be 6600XT vs 5700XT . As for A750, it needs a bit more of driver polish, but is a solid offer even now. Real competition for 5700xt is of course 6600xt and 6650xt.
6000 series now has fluid frames frame generation.
I had my 6600 went from 60-70 fps to 135 fps in metro exodus high settings w/ ray tracing because of the frame generation.
AMD drivers are putting less support on 5000 series than 6000 and 7000 series.
Bottom line 5700 xt has less future proof than 6600 in present time.
@@adlibconstitution1609 Frame generation is crappy in games where you need high FPS the most - in competitive first person shooters. In other types of game, looks nice, but is not really needed.
6650xt is 35% better than 5700xt
@@inooo3943 Yup, but is also more expensive.
@@adlibconstitution1609 Frame generation is a gimmick, dude. XD
For my gaming server I was able to buy 3x6800s used and the (new) water blocks for them for less than one 4090. They are stupid efficient - all three of us can game on 600W.
At minute 4 the afterburner overlay is showing a750 gpu. I have a rx 6600 and when I benchmark that section of the game I am getting over 60 fps at high settings with a ryzen 5 5600 non x.
Had a used 2070 Asus dual mini OC for about 2 months.No noticeable issues so far.Runs pretty hot under constant 100% load,but not close to 80C yet so I guess it won't die or start being unstable soon.I'll prolly sell it at some point and get a used 3060 instead.Or maybe new GPUs come out at adequate prices which is sort of impossible.I think we're doomed at this point since vast majority thinks it's totally fine to pay freaking 2000 bucks for a card which already can't handle the newest games without upscaling or dropping the resolution
Consider reapplying new thermal paste. Doing so on my 5700XT made a huge difference.
@@HellFire107 Nah I'm too lazy as long as it stays under 70-73C
is upgrading from rx5700xt to 6700xt any good? i play warzone,valorant,fortnite and sum free AAA games on epic like ghost runner,death standing,gta v,etc
is this video taking into consideration the smart access memory that the 5700xt and above have i see the part where your showing 256mb fast memory but smart access memory is much faster then that when you enable the resize bar 4g decoding ect
What the hell is that keyboard and mouse I had a heart attack when I saw that 🤣
There's always the option of buying broken/parts GPUs and trying to fix them. You buy 2-3 and chances are at least one of them can be fixed relatively easily! Sometimes just reflowing it is all you need, stick it in your kitchen oven at some-odd degrees for an hour, etc... Sometimes that's all a GPU's PCB needs.
I was long searching for a review among these cards regarding UE5 & frame generation performance. Thanks a lot. Now I know buying a rx5700 at cheap price was a good decision
I am going down this rabbit hole, thankfully yes with some knowledge we do stand to get the best outcome most of the time, if bought from the right place all your out is time, so always have a back up part, Always.
Somewhat shocking that the 5700XT is so much faster than the 6600 even in Overwatch, despite expected relative performance to be similar. Is this due to the faster memory?
I'd of thought in something like Overwatch especially at medium the textures and things are very light and so the memory performance wouldn't have impacted the overall FPS to the degree shown in the video. It makes me then wonder, would there be even more benefits from GPU's with even faster memory still?
Great video! Just a note, the Rx6600 runs around 125w - the 100W your seeing is a bug I believe
AliExpress had the RX6600M for extremely cheap during Single's Week/Black Friday/Cyber Monday; I bought (another) one for 120€, and keep in mind this price includes the 23% VAT I pay in Portugal. Killer deal for cheap builds, and with a ridiculosuly low power consumption just like it's "normal" counterpart.
I've been thinking about the 7800 , but I dunno yet. What do you think?
I own 5700XT for half a year. Its the best hold-onto card before you wait for new ones price drop. 8GB vram, 256bit memory bus, you can’t get anything equivalent this cheap. $100 in my area for a used one.
The big drawback is you need to feed direct fresh air to this gpu with case fans and an aggressive undervolt 1080mv 2010mhz for 5700xt, for it to run cool and draw around 140-180W while gaming
I find most people in my area are asking prices too close to new to consider buying used.
I recently got an a750, and i know its performance fluctuates a lot depending on the game, but in the games I play a 5700xt demolishes it. It gets about 50% more fps at way higher settings.
Now I did get a bunch of free software with it that I an selling. So it kinda performs like a 1650 did in new games when that came out, and since it was only 202 euros, and I can probably get some money from selling the software it would also be a 1650 price I bought it for.
So price to performance is pretty decent, but the A750 and A770 are definitely entry level cards for a bunch of games with "even" a 5700xt being miles ahead of them. Not that a 5700xt is bad, but it is about 130-150 euros used. The A750 is looking like 170-180 right now, with the sold codes.
Switched last month from a 5700xt to a 6950xt.
The 5700xt was doing 3440x1440 res with RSR fairly decently, that card has amazing performance, but I wanted to play at the actual resolution on high settings
I used to be super against used GPU's because I i never tried it, and I didn't trust people. But ebay actually has a ton of legitimate and trustworthy sellers that want to move cards. You do have to search around and understand the risks, but its pretty epic when you can find those awesome deals.
I was able to get a GTX 1650 for maybe 75-90 bucks shipped for an old Optiplex I was building for my kiddo. I had another Optiplex I gave to a friend who just wanted to buy a 1650 new, and he paid at least $150 for it.
Its worth trying the Vulkan mod for Alan Wake 2. It worked for me on my GTX 1080 ti and the average hopped up to 36 FPS at 1080p low. Even at 1440p low w FSR enabled, i could get a somewhat alright 30 fps experience.
Alan W@ke II is crap, dude.
Not sure what's going on with your Cyberpunk but I get 60fps or more on High settings 1080p (no RT/no upscale) using my RX5700XT on Phantom Liberty.
Are you using dx11? Or dx12?
Looking at the comments, this is a really common decision people make. It heavily depends on the market conditions and the region. I had the same choice for my secondary PC and a used 5700XT was 160 EUR while a new RX 6600 with 3 years of warranty was 185 EUR. I liked having the peace of mind of a new GPU with warranty so I went with the 6600. Also the power draw certainly is a bonus, it's one of the most efficient cards out there.
Can you please use a different sound effect when you're highlighting something on screen? The current one sounds like a cat about to barf
I only have a 1040P monitor so it's one of the reason i'm taking the 5700xt but the thing is should i actually or should i stick with the rx 6600, or a750?
Edit: Also i don't play games like alan wake or cyberpubk or any singleplayer games basically i play FPS games like csgo, apex, valorant, etc.
bought a refurbished 5700XT for $190 dollars, Works fine and came with a one year warranty. I also bought a 1060 6GB for $99, it worked fine, but now the ports are not always working and it came with 0 warranty. Its hit or miss sometimes. But on Ebay you get the best shot with used stuff.
Can you share Resolve render data?
Good content tho
I actually have to worry about the power bill in this house. And after I saw the power consumption numbers on the 5700 XT? I decided I could do with a few less frames...
Around here in Europe buying a RX 6600 used both XT and non-XT is notably cheaper than the price of a new one so it's worth the extra risk if one wants something newer than the 5700 XT but seems the difference isn't as large in the US. (or maybe it is if you have to pay sales tax on top of that new price that's shown)
The fact that you can assemble a complete pc with a Ryzen 5 5500 along with a RX 5700 XT and 16gb ddr4 3200 ram and fast m2 storage for less then $400 is crazy and was impossible not too long ago. Near ps5 performance before messing with OC and under volting.
I don’t buy used cards for my personal rig anymore however I do shop used or refurbished whenever someone comes to me to build them a pc and honestly prices are crazy like I’ve seen 2080Ti’s for as little as $310
What driver is used upon doing the test?
Still running my 5700xt ref card from 2019 awesome card using the Anniversary Edition bios Uvolt + O'Clock I get way better CPunk FPS. Video edits CapCut/Shotcut good. Will copper mod it soon.
Good video idea with intel in the mix. Hope you have wisdom in your whole life❤
guys so i get 5700 not xt for 140 euros is it so much worse then xt?
I recently bought an used (practically new) rx 6600 for 130€, paired with a ryzen 5600 in total I spent under 600 for my whole build. I couldn't be happier, runs everything I need +100 fps at 1080p. If you can find a similar deal it's a no brainer!
best budget combo
A rx 6600? lol
@@IncognitoActivado yea a rx6600, what?
@@oznerolmarga No, nothing. XD
That weird sound seemed to be COIL WINE!
I think ur last if us part 1 test on a750 is wrong
I think u got a furst launch bug because my card runs it very well after launching 2nd or 3rd time
that´s why, i bought about 2 weeks ago a 5700XT Red Devil Edition for 75€!
here in 2023 almost 2024, im still using my msi 5700xt gaming x, temp are much hotter now than when its brand new, just say this gpu is beast for the price.
Test amd cadrs on cs2 there is some werid freeze on premier matches
I'm happy with my Sapphire Nitro+ 5700 XT 8GB as it's a massive upgrade from the card I removed from my rig which was an XFX RX 580 8GB.
Nice.
Desktop GPUs are designed to last for some long years. My last desktop gpu before i bought my laptop, was an R7 270X 2gb amd gpu which came out on 2013 ( 11 years ago ). I was the 3rd owner of that card, and before i bought my laptop in 2023 it was still working wonders ( Sekiro 1080p solid high settings 60fps).
Finally, someone is saying it! Used are a good idea... if they're current enough. Something like the 580, or 1000 series nvidia are going to have less support as time goes on, and cost you more electricity for your performance in the long run. Might as well splurge on a newer card now, and be able to enjoy it longer for cheaper. Also it's worth mentioning, you can actually get a used 6600 for around the same price as that used 5700xt.
actually is hard to find new capable gpus at 75w max. i bought a used gtx1650pro because arc380 is inferior and costs 3x more...
@@farmoboy83 Not a terrible choice, 16 series aren't that old yet. I actually lucked out in that department and found an A2000 for >250$
Rx 5700 xt gang since 2019! Running fortnite at 1440p 165-170fps mixed (mid-high) settings with fsr
5:29 ok i seen enough to say this. The big mistake most make in choosing a card is how much FPS and the cost to purchase. Listen, the cost of a graphic card is how much it cost you to run it. Now, a kid surely won't care because parents paying the light bill most likely, but you see that $130 for the 5700XT, will end up costing you more in light bill because of how much power it uses. I was very interested in that card too, but the 6600 and Arc series catching my interest because they run more efficient. The FPS differences honstly doesn't matter. Once it's giving 30 or 45-60 YOU'RE GOOD!
beautiful and quality content right here
Of course the GPU pulling almost 100w more is going to be competitive with the "lower" end hardware of last generation. But its still cool to see it push through!
vex really do be rocking the cooler master devastator. terrible keyboard, and I can attest to it since I have one somewhere
My current 1080 Ti is bought used about 2 1/2 years ago and is still working fine just fine. ^^
It started to report lower clocks tho, so it might end it's life soon. :/
It wouldn't surprise me at least, it is a very old card that was heavily used over those years...
the 6600 will loose some when moved onto an older pcie 3.0 platform like intel 8th / 9th /10th or even a Ryzen 5500. the 6600 does not run on a full x16 lanes, and doesn't need to on a pcie 4.0 system. So you might consider the 5700 xt if you are building from used or older parts.
ive never had any issue i couldnt deal with from buying used GPUs and have always gotten what was described but it is like you say , read the comments on the sale , and act accordingly , used mother boards is different story, ive had issues with every single one , but as far as GPUs go always brake them down clean and, repaste anyway , and have one 1070 that worked fine after renewing but did end needing a new set of fans, but was happy to do it as i had the card for year before the fans started acting up, and could likely just lubed the fans again but used it a build for sale and replaced them for 6$ . I didnt mind it one bit as i got 2 1070 in an old bulldozer SLI build that gave 100$ for , now mother boards are barely below retail and dont have NVME stand offs, port shields, or just plain junk i just cant enjoy
People sometimes forget that Raw performance isn't always or rarely what's the only important factor. Powerdraw / efficiency is also important to some people because of crappy electricity costs.
For me that's especially important, i live in Sweden and electricity here costs quite a penny, especially here in the south. That's why i and my gf won't be buying used older cards. Rather have a 4060 than a 3070 or a 3080 (just as an example!).
The second thing is, is that I've had mixed experiences buying used hardware. A 3080 that was used and sold once already before i bought it worked fine around 4-6 months before i had to return it because of faulty memory or / and core.
I made sure i got the original reciept so i could return it if something happened, which it did. Haven't bought a used gpu since. Many were being used for mining which Can, but not always, severly degrade the gpu.
For someone with a bit more money to spare that's not as big of an issue but for me it's very important that the things i buy have some kind of insurance that they'll work for atleast a certain amount of time and if something breaks then I get a refund/replacement.
I built myself a rig for testing Linux, didn't wanna deal with Nvidia Linux BS on my main rig. Been loving my little champ, RX 6600 (nonXT), i3 12100, and 16gb ram. Going to upgrade the ram but it's been amazing running a system with full open source drivers and being able to use skills and tips I learned from my steam deck. 6600 pulse was the biggest and best GPU I could fit in the tiny build setup that I made, otherwise 4060ti 16gb MSI 2 fan model can fit but for Linux esp, meh. For anyone who has this card, give Linux a shot. Feels better than in windows at least to me.
good salvage coverage. mb
The prevailing wisdom during the crypto craze was to sell your 5700XT for the $600 or so you could get and buy a "free" upgrade. I kept mine, and it's still going strong in my HTPC.
Same and I’m not even mad about it.
@@b.8972 Nor I. Didn't want to fuel the craze.
I've had a used 6600xt that was used for mining, for about a year, no issues, it runs cool and I can achieve 2707mhz core clock @ 1050mv. Results in temps in the 50s instead of 70s. I got a 6700xt recently though, it's much better for the price. $300 vs the $250 7600. The 6600 is a sapphire pulse and 6700 is a sapphire nitro+. Still though the 6600xt takes a dump on the 3060(Ti as well) and the 4060 in actual use in both 1080 and especially 1440p.
A sidenote as well, I still have a working RX570 that was heavily used for mining when it got to me, but i got it for $100 so I couldn't complain much, cleaned it up well and it was my main GPU for a few years. The new ones came in basically perfect condition, no dust. The 570 literally had rust on it 😂😂😂
I have a 5700xt with four years. I'm upgrading the GPU next week.
I bought a 6600 when it came out for 200 (open box) 5700 xt was actually more expensive back then. I'm genuinely surprised at how much the 5700xt price dropped.
Same. I paid like ~$400 for my Red Devil 5700xt when it was new then it spiked to $1000+ during Covid and now it’s $130. Just a roller coaster of financial turns.
Bought my used 5700XT for $180 more than a year ago. $50 depreciation seems like a good price for one year.
After watching this amazing comparison, I think I will go for the EAGLE RX6600. After all, it runs cooler which means longer lifespan, and not to forget the new technologies.
i have the rx5700xt, i got one for just 120$ and its just crazy, my 6700xt dies and this 5700xt still can play games like apex, dota and lol at 1440p just fine in my 2k 165hz monitor
I wouldn't worry too much about buying used on eBay and a seller not accepting returns. All a buyer has to do is make up some BS or lie, and eBay will automatically side with the buyer and let them get a refund. It's sad, honestly. But, great for buyers, I suppose.
But you know what fluid motion frames won't support rx 5700 xt but it will support rx 6600 witch
that why i upgraded my 1070 to a 1080ti last week lol.... was like brand new that thing
For the price a 5700xt is a killer 1080p/1440p card.
In my region the 5600xt is going for around 70-80 bucks. Thats are really good deal for what you are getting.
I have a 5700XT, was looking to upgrade
My previous GPU is 5700xt, it performed well but it is unbelievably loud and overheating, I placed my PC under the table because of that. Besides that, if you let it run at 100% load for a while, the adrenaline driver might crash, sometimes it is a minor crash, but sometimes, it crashes so hard that your PC freezes and you have to do a cold restart. In extreme cases your driver will be 'killed' and you have to reinstall the driver no matter how many times you restart your PC xD. By the way, my model is XFX THICC III, I put XFX on my blacklist because of this GPU, it bends, what crappy quality xD
Chips of Rx 500 and rx 5000 they dont have inspection quality for is time so any partner vendor has the same probability failures shappire got the same issues by bad quality silicon. Today stores got afraid selling AMD gpu cards 15 fail over 40 and nvidia is most common trusted quality at any store.
I got myself a rx 5700 xt traveled 10 hours just to get this card on hand for 140$ and im hoping for good results 🥰
I think the rx 6600 needs to be retested because in the video its limited to 100w and while yes its a lower power card but it usually uses 120 -130w
Ex Flagship 2080Ti rare deals couple hundred bux... throw a 350watt vbios on there and clock it up past 2100Mhz with extra power limits and have a GPU between 3070Ti and 3080, but with 11GB Vram and a large memory bus!!!
Supports every technology except frameGen. You can underrvolt it if you want ofc too...
I still have an RTX 2070 Super in my main gaming PC and it's still working extremely well for almost every flat screen game at 1440p. I have a Ryzen 7 5800x with 64 GB of 3600 MHz RAM as well. UE5 games like Remnant 2 are tough to run without dropping settings a fair amount though. A lot PC VR games play well also, like HL Alyx, but my main VR game is Flight Sim 2020 and my card SUCKS for that SOOO bad.
That is because of directx 12.

Thanks, good video. 1 level up would also be interesting 6700xt vs a770 vs whatever nvidia has at that px level second hand.
I wish I lived in an area where used cards were an option.
Unfortunately I live in an area where people think a 5700XT is worth 300+CAD (and they get belligerent if you try to haggle them down), while I can buy a powercolor 6600 off amazon for 260CAD...If I drive 3 hours to the next city (6hr round trip, and 3/4 tank of gas) used 5700xt's are 175-180. The problem is gas prices are too high to make it worth the trip. 160 for the card +80 for gas is 240... so saving 20, maybe 30 bucks and wasting the jist of a day off isn't worth it.
I tend to buy new as I keep things very long term (until it dies). I prefer having a warranty over buying another of the same item.
i think that as long as nidia,amd and intel continue making gpu's they should aim for raw performance instead of b.s like frame genereation which sure gies u fps but dosent hae a smoother gameplay,prices are going to be high again due to shortages but i think making major every few years is a good idea instead of making gpu' s 20-30% faster.i would rather wait a year or two to get a beter superior product than spend a boatload of money for ssmall boost of performance
I love my rx 5700 xt I got from ebay, it worls perfetcly for what I do. it mostly don't even run the fans & never very much when it does.
Try AW2 with RADV on the 5700xt, it dramatically outperforms both of these GPU's.
Also Cyberpunk too, it gains around 40% improvement compared to windows 10/11..
What's AW2 and RADV?
i have just grab a dell 5700 XT for amazing 75 dlls, amazing card!
I had rx 6600 used recently and it was cheaper in my country/city than rx 5700 xt used. Biggest decision maker was alan wake 2, I really wanted to play it thats why I have given up rx 5700 xt. Either way this is temporary card I am gonna upgrade in few months, my only regret is rx 6600 gives me random screen flicker, idk why.
the 5700 xt served me well , got a 3090 before christmas for considerably less than a 4070
Good.
In my country the xfx RX 5700 xt is still being sold new at a gaming store. And its still cheaper than the rx 6600 and the arc a750. So its kind of a win for me :]
"...so demanding that people were having a CRYSIS over it" heh
Hell yeah, I currently game on a 8800GTX I bought for $5 off eBay.
thanks
Got a second hand 6700xt for 350Aus so whats that 240 something usd, very happy.
Ive had an msi gaming x 5700 xt for 10 months and its ate up everything i throw at it
I am still playing on 1080p on my 4090 😅😅 ( for context I only got this GPU for animation and designing as that is something I do a lot professionally)
4090? lol
with current gpu prices i am only buying used from this point forward. my used 3080ti is going strong. and it was probably damn near quarter of the price of a new one at the time. definitely quarter of the price of a 4080 anyway
all i know is that my rx6600 plays re 7 at 564 fps on ultra settings with rt turned on
I found a tachi rx5700 8 g brand new on Amazon for 270 out the door nasty
