One unique thing about this GPU is it's low TBP. The rx6700 pulls around 175w https://www.amd.com/en/products/g...on-rx-6700 , which is less than a rx6650XT.
The rx6700xt has a TBP of 230w. The rx6700 will generally outperform the rx6650xt and get close to the rx6700xt, but burning about 55 less watts.
If you have an older PSU at a lower wattage, this is a good card to pick up.
The general raster performance of this card should be faster than a rx6650xt or a rtx 3060, but slower than a rx6700xt or rtx 3060ti . Compare[videocardbenchmark.net]
People need to put a little more trust into AMD. They screwed up their reputation on building reliable cards with good drivers on the 5000 series GPU's, but they've come a LONG way since then and at this point in time I think AMD is pretty much on par with NVIDIA in terms of drivers, at least speaking from personal experience with my 6700xt. That being said, if that's not the only reason that you wanna go NVIDIA, like DLSS, raytracing, or streaming, then yeah NVIDIA all the way. But this isn't Intel ARC we're talking about. AMD has been in the GPU game for a while now so they know a thing or 2 about driver support.
Yes at this time right now for a brand new card. But I would wait for 6750x at around $300 which will happen soon since Black Friday is coming up. Also, AMD will announce its new GPU lineup in just a few weeks. So, prices will drop further down hopefully.

Prices on the low end won't drop much more. Amd is only releasing high end models and low end models are still 6+ months away.

I think that's more the 6700 xt. This is the non-xt version, so probably closer to a 3060, right?
6700xt is basically equal to a 3060ti, this non-xt version will be worse but I believe it should still be a decent bit faster than the 3060. (The gap between 3060 & 3060 ti is quite large, around 30%)
Edit: that being said, the 6650xt is very close in performance to the 6700 non-xt and can be had for ~$60 cheaper

There's no guarantee it will drop to even below $350 because it seems like all the AIB's are trying to hold the line as well. The 6700xt actually has went up in price the past 30 days.
I picked up a sapphire pulse 6800 XT for 450 on FB market place.
You bought a used card from a rando. Pretty sure he could of sold you a stripped card filled with bacon and you wouldn't of realized it until you got it home.
