I'm surprised this doesn't have better reactions today. Note there is also an EVO variant of this card which may be slightly better so if you look for reviews just take note of what exactly is being compared.

This is a good price considering how bad the shortage has been for GPU and motherboard in recent months.

I'd shell out an extra 30-40 on a deal for a 5600xt if u can hold out. I snagged one a couple weeks ago. Just wish my power supply didn't get lost Frown

$10 cheaper for single-fan 2.5 slot card. Has great reviews. https://www.newegg.com/evga-gefor...6814487484 $215 AC for 30 MHz less on the core clock.

Where? I search this forum for 5600 xt and the closest one is $260, not $235...

Please provide reference when posting or else it's called trolling...

Thanks.

You're right. You may be able to get $235 if you have a card issuer or site coupon... I think. I don't know specifically which $10 more deal on 5600xt they've seen, but it wouldn't surprise me if it were a recent Amex / Staples coupon stacking thing.

To me, the advantage with the 1660 super is the encoder that's Nvidia built in for streaming (so it's specific to you if that's an applicable advantage) and the Nvidia driver optimization. Otherwise, paying more for the 5600xt does seems like the better deal if any sub-$260 deals can be found.

Like you said it depends on what you need. I do know with some video editing programs Nvidia is preferred and perform better than similar AMD cards.

I own this card, its great for 1440p gaming at 60fps, if you want more than that you'll need a better card. I personally would wait a few more months if you can for the next gen cards to come out.
