There is also a higher quality version for the same price after rebate (but with a bigger rebate).

I guess newegg has too much of these in stock. Good deal a for light gaming video card if you have a newer computer and don't mind the rebate.

Even though my computer is older with PCI 3.0, I picked one because it was so cheap. It should run most current games at medium settings on 1080p.

According to https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-s...0-xt.c3850 it's on par with the 5500 XT and GeForce GTX 1650. For $100, what else can you buy brand new with a warranty that performs better?
Also, in case anyone is considering this for a cheap upgrade on an old system: apparently if you don't use a pcie 4.0 slot, this thing gets hampered considerably.

Seems to be a decent cheap low-end card for a newer build only. If your mobo only does pcie 3.0, look elsewhere...
Ah, the price this trash card should have ORIGINALLY launched at 🙄

Unlike budget offerings of the past, you really will regret not putting this on a modern 4.0 slot. Since it only has 4 physical lanes and all… also note the lack of encoder and reduced display output capability, this truly was a laptop GPU stuck onto a desktop board.

I guess it's worth it for a backup if you really want Dead Island 2. But honestly this card is not worth more than $50, considering you can get used cards that massively outperform this at $100.

This card is on par with the RX580 from years ago. Keep that in mind.

I'm just glad to see a $100 GPU. Even if its sold out. Feels like its been awhile.

There should always be some kind of "750ti" like card under $125 to make light PC gaming more accessible.

Not much better than taking $100 and lighting it on fire

seems comparable to the gtx1650 in fps, faster in a few games, slower in others in low and medium 1080p. In ultra high 1080, slightly better than the gtx1660.

Make sure you have PCIE 4.0 not 3.0 if you plan to use it for gaming. Most video cards run at 16x and this card runs at 4x so it needs the extra bandwifth of 4.0.

Any ideas on a good card for warzone/warzone 2 at less than $250.00?

Actually was debating on jumping on this since I was looking for a used 570/580 and thought this might be a better solution and get the latest (well almost) architecture and future proofing.

Question - i was looking to upgrade a computer with PCI3.0 (have a way old 260X) - should I look for a card with at least 8x lanes at a minimum? Was under the impression that its a neglagible real world performance difference between 3.0 and 4.0 but that comparison was I think at 8x and 16x lanes....I have not seen a 4x lane comparison.

I just read the rebate direct from Asus's website and it says, "All Authorized Resellers".

So, same price after rebate at Amazon.

I received Asus Dual Radeon 6650XT yesterday. There is irritating fan whine noise when the fps is high and goes away when vsync is turned on. Just updating since the same problem may pop up with this card since the design must be the similar.

Also anyone got the same problem?

Except the 6500xt is worse. No encoders means its useless for streaming and content creation or re-encoding, only 2 video outputs, requires PCIe 4.0 or there is a big performance loss.

This was AMD's greedy attempt at putting a laptop GPU into a desktop, now its on discount because crypto is dead and AMD cant milk consumers anymore.

I have an AsRock 6600 XT. I either don't have our notice that sound. I don't know if it's yours only or an Asus thing. I haven't seen reviews mentioning this issue
