Pros: Compact Runs as well as cards with larger coolers
Cons: Needs 2 8 pin pci Needs case with good airflow
Overall Review: The card is overall good. But i think the dual 8 pin pci is overkill 8+6 would be fine considering the cooler is on a compact dual fan card. Not much overhead. Most of the new cards are quite large. And didnt fit in my corsair 220T, as i do have a 360 aio on the front. This card is under ten inches and fits great. Temperatures avg 70degrees under full gaming load. Might benefit from some front fan airflow to keep it cool. Didnt mention it as a con because the card doesnt thermal throttle. If you need a compact card i recommend it.
Overall Review: This was the second 6700xt Newegg has sent me. Someone stole the first one I ordered right out of the box before it was even delivered. Newegg took care of it and sent a new one out after a short investigation. Top marks for Newegg customer service! I waited to grab this card when the price got close to msrp, and I do not regret getting this model after seeing the 6750 reviews. The card is amazing compared to my old 390X. It keeps cool and quiet in my ole Antec DF 85 case.
Pros: Stays nice and cool, in my system even with my more demanding VR games it hangs out in the 50-56 Celsius range (Im running a Valve Index at 120hz on highest graphics settings for reference). The highest power draw Ive reached under heavy load was around 185 watts The 12 GB of VRAM is able to run even the most demanding games (looking at you Metro Exodus) at stable fps The current price is pretty competitive for what you get, especially with what you get out of the box in clock speeds This card is surprisingly stable compared to its predecessor the 5700XT, in my experience the drivers rarely crash under low load
Cons: The driver software could use a bit of work, especially with compatibility in terms of the latest windows updates Decently power hungry at 230 watts, but will generally not hit that cap even under heavy load. This card performs best when using an 850 watt PSU depending on system configuration.
Overall Review: This is an amazing GPU! I upgraded from a GTX 1080 and the performance upgrade is pretty noticeable, especially in VR. 12 GB of VRAM is a decent step up from 8 GB. Windows 10 users: if you are installing this as an upgrade in a built PC, be aware that installing the latest optional quality update (May 2022) will possibly corrupt the BootMGR system file. I do not know how it will affect fresh installs. This issue can affects users with SSDs of both types and SATA drives.
Pros: Compact Size
Overall Review: The size is compact and I dig the solid metallic look. I tried the card out and it handled mostly every game well in 1080p with max settings. It certainly can handle 1440p as well, most games are at a steady 100-140 (My monitor only reaches 165hz). I'm not a pro when it comes to proper reviews, but this card does a good job from a simple gamer point of view. I took a screenshot of the benchmark test from Cyberpunk 2077 maxed out at 1440p (Everything Ultra with DLSS and DRS Disabled). Apex as well with 1440p with all of the video settings maxed out. I hope this helps a bit with making a decision. For me, this card works well and I don't see myself needing an upgrade any time soon.
Overall Review: Card runs great and maxes out all the games I play (using a 1080p high refresh monitor). Performance almost doubled over my old gtx 1070.
Cons: It crashes when you run any first person shooters. Can't even handle games my super old card could.
Overall Review: I cannot in good faith recommend this to anyone. Not even my worst enemy.
Pros: Graphics Look good
Cons: Card crashes nearly all games
Overall Review: Avoid this card, could have gotten a faulty one, but never had an issue with Nvidia.
Pros: -Stable frames -Runs cool -Framerate workhorse -No fires as of yet.
Cons: - current price (unfortunate side-effect to chip shortage and scalpers) -it did not give bring my dad's respect -boss may be annoyed to find out what I used the company card on.
Overall Review: Managed to get this on company card just before it was sold out to scalpers. managed to ensure minecraft, Skyrim, and Fallout all ran smoothly even with 400 mods each. Immediately saw my frames stick to a consistant 60FPS in those aforementioned games. every normal game ran at a stable 50FPS up to 100FPS at 3440x1440 Ultrawide. Games tested inclide, Far cry 5, Tom Clancy's Rainbow six Siege, The Division 2, Ghost Recon Wildlands, Battlefield 4, Payday 2, Call of Duty Modern warfare (2019) and VR games (half life Alyx, Fallout 4 VR and SkyrimVR)
