First up we have the 8GB PowerColor FIGHTER RX 6600, which is designed to enjoy any game at 1080p resolution. Then we have the Gigabyte RTX 2060 6 GB, which, despite being “old”, is a very good graphics card with support for Ray Tracing and DLSS. They are two very good options that will allow us to play any game smoothly.
PowerColor FIGHTER RX 6600 8GB
According to statistics from Steam, on the 60% of users of the platform use 1080p resolutions to play. The reason is that monitors and graphics cards for these resolutions are very cheap. Also, games called eSports such as CS:GO, Fornite or Dota2, are designed to be played in 1080p resolution.
This graphics card from PowerColor is based on the AMD RX 6600 graphics card of the RDNA2 architecture. This graph has 1792 stream processors and a total of 28 RT cores. It should be noted that this graphics card offers support for ray tracing technology. To compensate for the performance loss, at AMD we have FSR technology which does not require dedicated hardware.
It should be noted that this graphics card operates at a Base frequency 2044 MHz and can happen in Boost mode at 2461 MHz. In addition, this graphics card comes with 8 GB GDDR6 with 128-bit bandwidth and 14 GB/s transfer speed.
PowerColor’s solution is based on a simple dual-slot heatsink equipped with 90mm fans to dissipate heat. It’s not a very powerful heatsink, at first glance, but more than enough for this graphics card.
We offer this graphics card with one HDMI 2.1 output and three DisplayPort 1.4 outputs. In addition, it has an 8-pin PCIe type power connector.
We are talking about a very cheap graphics card with this deep discount. The truth is, if you’re thinking of buying a new graphics card and you’re on a tight budget, you won’t find anything better on the market.
Gigabyte RTX 2060 6GB
Although NVIDIA products tend to be a little more expensive than AMD products, they often have certain additional features. This graphics card that we bring to you now, was the one that “standardized” the real-time ray tracing technology. It also includes different technologies to improve performance and user experience.
Gigabyte’s graphics card is based on the RTX 2060, which was released in 2019, but is still an excellent graphics card. This graphics card has a total of 1920 CUDA cores, 30 RT cores and 240 Tensor cores. You can see that it is designed for Ray Tracing and with the RT Cores we have access to DLSS technology, which compensates for the losses generated by the weight of Ray Tracing.
Does this graphics card have a Maximum frequency 1680 MHz, which is the frequency set by NVIDIA. has a total of 6 GB of GDDR6 memory with a 192-bit memory interface with a bandwidth of 336 GB/s.
Does this graphics card have 2x WindForce Heatsink, which is very popular with users. It uses two specially designed 90mm fans to create powerful airflow for highly efficient heat dissipation.
Regarding the video outputs, this graphics card is very well powered. He has one HDMI 2.0b and three DisplayPort 1.4, which is ideal for a gaming graphics card.
We said this graphics card is three years old, but it’s still a very decent graphics card and has power for many years to come. We can’t expect it to run games at resolutions higher than 1080p, but at that resolution it will run just fine.
