"Middle-brother"
The Radeon RX 5600 XT is a kind of "middle brother" in the Navi family. Unlike the younger brother (we are talking about the RX 5500 XT) based on the Navi 14 chip, this one looks structurally and technically more relaxed and modern. The Navi 10 core is used as the basis, and its number of stream processors, render units and texture units has grown by almost one and a half times. In fact, this is the older RX 5700 XT, which had its wings slightly clipped so as not to fly close to the sun.
6 GB VRAM instead of 8 GB
The problem is that someone not too smart cut it and, together with the memory bus, cut the amount of the card as well — instead of 8 GB, it turned out to be 6 GB. By itself, this figure looks quite adequate. And you probably heard more than once the opinion that the influence of video memory on FPS is overestimated. But this applies primarily to Full HD resolution. When it comes to 2K or 4K gaming, which $500 cards are designed for, more video memory is needed. At least 6 GB, but 8 GB is better, because the requirements are growing day by day. If there is not enough memory, then the missing part will get from the slower system-wide DDR4 RAM. And this promises unexpected drawdowns and freezes, although the total FPS counter will look quite adequate.
Favorable price-performance ratio
But to the credit of Radeon and the manufacturing companies, they quickly tightened the prices so as not to go into the heavy weight category for the eight-gig RTX 2060 SUPER. Among all the variants of the RX 5600 XT available for sale, one of the most interesting is the version from Gigabyte with the well-proven triple Windforce cooler (there is a passive mode), a slight factory overclocking of the core and an improved element base. In stock mode, it confidently cracks down on the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER from the same Gigabyte, with a slight overclocking it almost catches up with the RTX 2060 SUPER. In both cases, the FPS gap is roughly equal to the price difference, so the only question is, will 6 GB meet your requirements? After all, the rest of Gigabyte did their best and its requested amount of 350-plus dollars looks more than justified.
