Update 1 28th Jul

Price dropped to £219.98 - 28/07

Saw an RX 6600 deal on here with free Starfield, but this is faster for the money and also comes with Starfield. RX 6650 XT is 28% faster apparently but costs only 21% more.

Down to £219.98 now. Bought this the other day and overall happy with it. Replaced a GTX 1060 6GB. CPU is i5 4690K and seems absolutely fine with the new GPU but will probably upgrade the other components later in the year. Casual gamer here and this has given my ageing PC a new lease of life.
24th Jul
Good find, cheapest around I think? heat added.

These were £189.99 last week and I'm holding off until they go under £200 again
24th Jul
I've heard those were not honoured by the seller as they were mispriced. Shame too, as £190 is a cracking price.
24th Jul
Keep seeing that the free Starfield game is free with certain cards. I bought a RX6600 from TechNextDay last week can I claim the game also?
24th Jul
I'm afraid not - They don't participate in AMD rewards.
What you can do is to return the card within the cooling off period without giving a reason.
28th Jul
Now back to prime day price £219.

This or the 6700XT with 4GB more ram

However that's another £100+ for 25% better performance though probably betyter future proofing. (edited)
28th Jul
6700xt Sapphire is £300 from OCUK and includes Starfield too. So we're looking at £80 difference. My personal opinion would be to definitely stretch the budget if you can. Most people keep their GPUs for 3-4 years so that difference won't be that significant over time and you still end up with a better product. Even if you play at 1080p and won't utilise the 100% of power, you have some grunt and Vram left spare and ready for the future when the games will inevitably become more demanding.
25th Jul
I bought this card on prime day for £219, it's a huge step up from my gtx 1060 6gb even if it is running on a b450 motherboard (pcie 3.0) with a Ryzen 2600, maybe looking to upgrade later in the year.
25th Jul
I did the same. Do you know if it’s eligible for the Starfield promo?
24th Jul
I have an old 980 in my PC, was wanting to wait for the 6700 but I have £125 Amazon vouchers to use and the 6700 is £100 more on there so not sure if I am risking it by waiting or if I should just get this. I only have 1080p monitors so the extra on the 6700 might be wasted. Dilemmas..
25th Jul
In my opinion 8gb vram is too low for future games, 12gb should be minimum especially if you're planning on sticking with the card for a few years.
25th Jul
RX 7600 seems a much better deal

£239.99 from OCUK with Starfield included
25th Jul
£247.98 from OCUK, have to add delivery.
Both come with starfield.

Performance is comparable in most games, very little between them.
Not sure the 7600 is worth the extra £23 unless you really want to use FSR 3.0 (not a fan of it myself).

Having AV1 hardware encoding with the 7600 is a nice bonus though. (edited)
26th Jul
£239.99 again now.
27th Jul
£219.98 now. Just Amazon being Amazon.
29th Jul
The RX 6600 is £45 cheaper (20%) and only loses 5-10% in performance to this.

Edit: Scratch this, I was comparing the 6600XT performance. (edited)
29th Jul
Source?

In OP post it says:
"RX 6650 XT is 28% faster apparently but costs only 21% more."
24th Jul
Well I bought for 229.99 today….
Of course the prices then come down!
Excellent deal though.
25th Jul
Great price!
25th Jul
Is 160 pound a good price for second hand 6700xt? I suppose they could have been used for mining??
25th Jul
Yeah it's great where is it being sold from? It sounds too good to be true, so be wary of the seller unless it's from someone you know as they're going for £260-270 on ebay
25th Jul
Very good price for a capable card.
25th Jul
Pass. RX 7600 is better value soon support FSR 3.0
27th Jul
6650xt will also support FSR 3.0.
There’s not much between these cards at all.
25th Jul
128bit memory bus, is this a cut down version
26th Jul
Seems a lot of people on Reddit are buying these AMD cards, getting the Starfield code, redeeming the pre-order on Steam (with GPU installed for hardware check), and then returning the card. Due to the game being technically a free bonus, it doesn't have relevance on the GPU return process.

Pretty naughty. (edited)
26th Jul
The worst part of selling on Amazon. Most people don't realise that items are sold by third parties. When you get a return you have to give a full refund. Then the product gets sent back.

If it's damaged it cannot be sold as new and then you have to pay Amazon to deliver it back to you.

Hopefully it's only Amazon getting ripped off with the above.

95% of the gaming market won't buy AMD. They want lower prices on Nvidia GPU instead. That's the only reason they want cheaper prices for AMD.
28th Jul
Worth upgrading from a gtx 1070?
29th Jul
tomshardware.com/rev…tml
About 45%+ faster in 1080p. 1070 still fetches around 100 quid on ebay to offset the cost.
31st Jul
£239.99 now.
