you need more VRAM for texture mods
other than that, pretty good card
does this include texture mods on old early 2000s and late 90s games?
>If you enjoy your weekly driver error crash and wasting 5 minutes everytime you boot compiling shaders, AMD is perfectly fine.
had the card for a year and the only issue with it i've had is that the original dragons dogma runs like shit unless you put some exe or something in the root folder i forgot, worked like a charm after that and never looked back. Yeah 1080p 60fps i'll upgrade to 1440p in a decade or two maybe
>does this include texture mods on old early 2000s and late 90s games?
maybe
i have a modded skyrim install that uses 11 GB of VRAM, for me the point of a new GPU is to play the old games that i like at ridiculous quality settings and resolution
>does this include texture mods on old early 2000s and late 90s games?
Oh here we go, another gay
>hur hur you only need a voodoo 2 card
>what? You play games past 1998? Lel
You dont want a discussion about gpu's or games, you just want to tell people new games suck and thats why being poor is aaaaalllright.
>oy vey please buy the over priced junk goys!!! I'm going broke ovah head! Ohhhhh!
I wrote a paragraph reply to this and then i realised it was ragebait so i deleted it. you got me good you damn bastard
He is right though
I think his argument was completely sensible that of course a weak GPU will be fine if you only play old games, but if you want to play anything post 2016 at over 1080p/60, a better card would be nice
ok i'll bite, I assumed that older games with a shit ton of graphical overhaul mods and texture mods maaaay not be able to run as well as i thought because of this
anon, I asked to clarify and
immediately showed up with this narritive in mind that I was using this thread to tell people I hate newer games (I don't i'll play them on low graphics if I have to i don't really mind) and that i was a poorgay.
You're okay anon. I'm sorry, I didn't want to bait either
If you enjoy your weekly driver error crash and wasting 5 minutes everytime you boot compiling shaders, AMD is perfectly fine.
if you mean a midrange gpu, lol? depends on what you want out of games and how long until you buy a new card. if 1080p 60fps is fine, card will last a long time.
Not the op, but I've had this card for awhile and never had driver issues.
This, I even went from a 580 8gb to 6600, in 10 years of using AMD the only driver issue I had was when I had to switch to onboard graphics temporarily after bumping my PC off the desk, and windows fricked with my drivers.
compiling shaders also only ever happens on first launch. Nvidia shills are the most insufferable lying c**ts on this shit site, worse than consoletards.
Both of you lying through your teeth or you don't play many games. Weekly crashes with my 5700XT until I moved on. On top of that nobody gives a shit about optimizing for AMD. Boot up apex and it will take 3 minutes to compile shaders as opposed to the 7 seconds on nvidia.
For me the 1080p isn't an issue but I'll never go back to sub 120fps again. Anything less is 100% unacceptable.
Nah I play a lot games, you're just a lying homosexual with an axe to grind.
Holy shit did I piss off the marketers with that one. GL lads.
Said the Nvidia israelite shill.
Thank you I do it for free, but wait until I shill for Arc

kek is this the userbenchmark guy
You don't know how to operate a PC and your defective brain jumps to the first confirmation bias explanation available.
>nobody optimizes for AMD
>what are BF1, Hitman, Starfield, RE4make
Anon ...
AIEEEEEEEE GAMERS NEXUS YOU LIED TO ME
Starfield runs like garbage on everything tbh, I wonder how Arcgays are doing
I swapped back to my 6700XT after using it for a few days back when MWII came out
I play old games going back to dx9 and emulation all the time, Id like to see some youtuber test drive Intel gpus for that kind of work but none of the big trustworthy ones have bothered with anything but gaas and AAA
>gen after gen AMD touts efficiency
>meanwhile the power draw for similar performance
it's all so tiresome... and hot...
the 4080 super is ahead with 100 less watts and 10 degrees cooler, it's still got room to overclock another 5-8% or so of performance
>upgrading from 7800XT to 4080 Super
99th and 1% shows AMD wins.
Compiling shaders use CPU you disingenuous moron.
i had weekly.... super fun gaming with my 5700xt until i moved on (4 years later)
I've been running a 7800XT for the past month now, and haven't had any issues besides the instant replay thing having really bad problems like warbling or desynced audio, but I mostly only record for silent webms for Ganker anyway
That shit only happens if you're moronic and don't know how to probably uninstall graphics drivers when switching between Nvidia and AMD. So, you're either moronic or parroting something a moron said.
You have to wait for 16GB ram cards. I'm in the same spot as you and only have the generation before yours.
There is no point otherwise.
How is it possible modern GPUs are so shit now that people still buy new 4 year old cards.
Nvidia and AMD are both asking $800+ for their new top end cards and have told there customers "You want cards for under $500? Frick you, buy our old shit"
It's more that they jacked up the prices alongside the performance, so you don't gain much by choosing newer instead of older higher tier model for the same price.
Zoomers refuse to work so they can't afford a $1000 GPU.
>8GB
>if i'm just playing vidya
It can not do 4k@60
I bet it can do 4k60 in Quake.
There is not a single card on the market that can.
i have a 4070 TI and i play native 4k capped at 60, been playing helldivers 2, looks great
It would be nice to have 1080/60 maxed, or even play at 1440/60 medium
I just bought a 6700XT for 3hundo. I'm excited
The value king
*their customers
Frick me
Good for you, enjoy your vidya!
I got a 7800XT for 530 bucks half a year ago. undisputed price/performance ratio. but the 6700XT for 300 its also neat
It's a hard video card to use. You need to be knowledgeable about video cards to get the most out of it.
How? I never mess with the driver too much. It just works decently for a cheaper card.
You can: undervolt it, overvolt it, overclock it, underclock it, get up-to-date drivers, preview drivers that do cool stuff like FMF and more, and a bunch of other stuff that will generally smooth out your experience, and raise the longevity of the card by years.
Cool, I'll look into that. Thanks.
It's the same with any card innit
Not always, people make it seem like Nvidia drivers are bad, but they are much simpler to use sometimes. Especially with getting windowed game support, or things like RTX running without a problem. The RX6600 is a good card if you can spin the hell out of its features, but most people won't be sitting there thinking to themselves, "hmm let me buy a cheap $200 card so I can have features that require intimate knowledge of the hardware," they'll want something that just works, like a 3090 or a 7900xt.
It's alright, I got a buddy who knows a thing or two about video cards. Stay tight for just a minute while I call him and see if we can work something out
Which way white man?
Guy who did the bottom pannels can't draw for the life of him. What a fricking homosexual. He should shove his hands into a wood chipper they're useless anyway.
the drivers themselves as far as stability is concerned isn't a real issue these days, the only time I've had stability issues was with too much of an undervolt on my 7800XT
depending on your budget and your resolution both nvidia and amd have decent options for sub $1000 cards, past $1000 you're looking at pure performance and not price/performance and that's nvidia territory for sure right now and into the next generation
ENTER
homie, you can’t brag about having an AMD card, certainly not a 6600.
Who was bragging?
I'm braggging?
How the frick should I know? I’m just stating facts.
I dunno dude you pretty clearly said i was bragging i thought you'd know
You also can't brag about being a rube who pays much more than necessary for a product just because of the brand.
Actual woman behavior.
It’s kind of necessary to pay $2,000 for a 4090 though, isn’t it?
I still have absolutely no idea what's the deal with AMD video card naming conventions and how am I supposed to classify any of their cards by tier, age, etc.
Seriously what the frick their marketing department is thinking? I don't even know how many people decided to get Nvidia cards for no other reason except being too confused with that shit.
What about it is confusing about the classification that is different from Nvidia's classification?
Just by making this cope thread you prove you're not satisfied with it.
explain to me why in the world i'd need anything more then this if i'm just going to work
If your work's only 1080 feet away that'd be perfectly fine, but if it's 1440 feet away, you'll need a motorcycle or a car. If you'll be carrying a lot of stuff back and forth, you'll need a truck for all of that load
I suppose I could just commute 1440 at 30 mph and not carry as much until I can afford to upgrade. Humans can't really tell the difference between 30 mph and 60 mph anyway
>then
I'd try to explain it to you, but you're not literate enough to understand anyway.
It's amazing I work with an EIT that still uses then when he should use than
Why are people feel so strongly about nvidia/amd? It reminds me of sportsball homosexualry.
Yeah it's weird considering Lisa and Jensen are related
Because AMD makes the best CPU and Nvidia makes the best GPU.
You know exactly why Anon. They are just moronic fanboys.
I mostly just hate brandgays
Waited to upgrade for a few years and got a 7600 instead of that 6600. Crashed so fricking much i'm too spooked to try amd again.
Even after looking at 3060/4060 prices being 290ish and for 30 bucks more i could get the 7600xt with 16gb ram
Shit sucks might just wait for 5060 in a year and hope they dont do 8gb again for that price point
4070 ti
Just bought one of these for my 12 year old cousin. Bought him an entire system with a 6700XT for christmas (his parents paid for it), but he somehow broke the HDMI port so hard the entire GPU stopped working. The 6600 ended up being more expensive than the 6700 was on cyber monday, but I don't feel bad. Learn to appreciate and take care of your shit, little b***h.
6750xt here you dont if you are 1080p, but i have 1440p.
But i only play project zomboid these days so my 5800x3d is doing everything anyways
Lmao, moronic PC tards are pathetic paypiggies.
Same level as those twitch tards, who gift their money to female streamers exposing some cleavage.
There are no modern games worthy enough to upgrade your hardware.
t. pajeet
The human eye can't see beyond 1080p at 144hz on a 24 inch screen. Anything more is a waste.
