So, yes I would do it. Because the 6650xt gain ~15% more performance. It's more like plug-and-play that has already been OC by AMD to its limit. Also, stable out of the box.

If you aren't stuck with a 350W PSU, then yeah, why not go for the 20% faster card for 15% more.

According to the AMD website
RX_6600 = 132 watts = Game Frequency 2044 MHz = Stream Processors 1792 = Texture Units 112 = Memory Bandwidth Up to 224 GB/s
RX_6600xt = 160 watts = Game Frequency 2359 MHz = Stream Processors 2048 = Texture Units 128 = Memory Bandwidth Up to 256 GB/s
RX_6650xt = 180 watts = Game Frequency up to 2635 MHz = Stream Processors 2048 = Texture Units 128 = Memory Bandwidth Up to 280 GB/s
Higher running game Frequency = more watts being consumed, but the main difference would be the Stream Processors.
So, in my view, it is a cripple GPU if you look at the specification from AMD. I also own the 6600xt during COVID (sold it for 3070ti, sold it for 6800xt, sold it again finally for 3080 12 GB), and I know its limit, and how far you can push it. Save your time and headache by just getting the 6650xt if your PSU allows it.
