Bit of a rubbish card compared to anything higher in the range, but it's about the lowest I've seen for a brand new card for a while.

- Dual ball fan bearings can last up to twice as long as sleeve bearing designs.
- A 2.7-slot design expands cooling surface area to make the most of the powerful Axial-tech fans.
- An all-aluminum shroud and metal backplate enhance durability.
- A 144-hour validation program puts cards through a series of stringent tests to ensure compatibility with the latest games.
- A vented backplate prevents hot air from recirculating through the cooling array.Axial-tech Fan Design

Dual Ball Fan Bearings
Different bearing types have unique pros and cons. Ball bearings excel at durability and can last up to twice as long as sleeve bearing designs.

2.7-slot Design
The heat spreader draws heat up into heatpipes that carry it through a fin stack that fills most of the card’s large, 2.7-slot footprint.

sorted byYou are so much better off stretching another £55 or so and getting the RX 6600 at the budget end of the scale, one for £176 here: hotukdeals.com/dea…207
You will get almost double the performance (and double the VRAM) going for an RX 6600 instead of this 6500 XT, graph from Hardware Unboxed:
But remember, AMD alone could never have pulled this pricing stunt. It is wholly the fault of Ngreedia, a vile and despicable company that just released a 4000 series card with ZERO performance increase over the 3000 equivalent, and with 4GB less VRAM. The current cards worth buying are all AMD last gen- 6600, 6700XT and 6800. Only when you get to the 4090 does Ngreedia have a 'worthwhile' product, and that only if you have semi-pro needs that justify its price.
