The AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT is AMD’s most affordable current-generation graphics card, proving to be an excellent choice for gamers who are on a budget and want high-end features such as ray tracing.

If AMD is able to keep it in stock, the RX 6600 XT will finally let you build that gaming PC you’ve been waiting on, but I’d recommend holding out just a little longer. It performs well at 1080p, but is just too expensive to recommend at $379.
