1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:06,879
new graphics cards used to be exciting but now we've got supers and XTS and

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:11,440
it's hard to know if they're any good especially when the stack is now huge

3
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:15,679
and the price to Performance is not always what you want it to be AMD has

4
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:19,800
come out with their new 7600 XT and we've got power colors hellhound Edition

5
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:24,160
which is actually pretty cool it is a pretty badass looking box I'm not going to lie it reminds me of the old school

6
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:28,000
days when there used to be like anime girls and weird ass aliens and stuff on

7
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:34,960
the boxes and on the cards those were great the RX 76 XT has some pretty cool

8
00:00:31,679 --> 00:00:38,800
things going for it like 16 gigs of vram

9
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:40,840
and 100 more megahertz on the clock

10
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:46,120
and that's it that's like literally all it's got

11
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:52,440
going for it we've got 32 compute units 64 AI accelerators 32 Ray accelerators

12
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,440
offering

13
00:00:59,920 --> 00:01:08,320
trying a little bit here overall while this is an interesting release it's kind

14
00:01:05,519 --> 00:01:13,479
of disappointing because we have been given something that we've all been

15
00:01:09,759 --> 00:01:16,400
clamoring for a year later but nothing

16
00:01:13,479 --> 00:01:20,200
else and I just can't help but wonder if they couldn't have done a better job at

17
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:25,840
the price that they're releasing this at what's cool about the hellhound Edition is it's got a little OC vers silent BIOS

18
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:29,040
you can swap that to whatever you want I'm going switch it back to OC because

19
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:33,240
uh let's be real this thing isn't going to get that loud when playing games and

20
00:01:31,320 --> 00:01:37,439
then on top of that it's also got an LED switch I'm going to make sure that is

21
00:01:35,079 --> 00:01:42,159
set to on when I plug it in later cuz I want to see how good the RGB is if it's

22
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:45,040
RGB at all it's two slot card nice and slim which is great these days

23
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:50,040
considering how chunky everything's getting we've got what looks like three

24
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,040
DisplayPort

25
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:04,840
2.1singles HDMI but at least AMD is

26
00:02:02,439 --> 00:02:08,560
giving us DP 2.1 not that this thing is going to take advantage of uh hbr1 or

27
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:13,840
anything like that they adverti that it's going to draw about 190 Watts but

28
00:02:10,679 --> 00:02:16,280
we did see spikes of up to 230 or 240

29
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:20,120
Watts under extreme heavy loads now that's fine they're recommending a 600 W

30
00:02:18,319 --> 00:02:25,000
power supply so even if you have a generally beefy CPU you should be okay

31
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:30,680
let's take a look at the size for test comparisons we went with an arc a770 cuz

32
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:35,519
it's a little cheaper and also has 16 gigs of vram and a 4060 Ti from NVIDIA

33
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:40,200
for a mid-range card this is about the size I'd expect I'm actually still

34
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:41,920
running a 1660ti in my stream computer

35
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:46,640
and uh it's about the same size little dual slot two fan card that doesn't take

36
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:51,519
up a lot of space fits in most form factor PCS our Arc card is what another

37
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:55,879
like 30 mm or something it's nothing to scoff at the last thing you want to do

38
00:02:53,599 --> 00:02:59,840
is buy a card take it home and then not be able to fit it in your computer I

39
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:03,080
really do like how Sleek these a770 looking feel though not going to lie

40
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:07,760
well that's not what we're talking about today we're talking about the RX 7600 XT

41
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:11,920
and I kind of like this one too uh the hellhound Edition is pretty dope with

42
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,959
these cool see-through fans I'm guessing that these are going to light up I'm

43
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:20,840
really hoping that they're going to light up because that would look absolutely sick otherwise it's pretty

44
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:26,720
bog standard in terms of card height these days as well as uh all of your

45
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:29,760
other dimensions now the 4060 TI 16 gig

46
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:34,920
and the RX 7600 XT are both on a 100

47
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:36,319
128bit bus the ark a770 is on 256 so if

48
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:39,599
you like that little bit of extra memory bandwidth then there's kind of a clear

49
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:44,280
winner here but how does that translate to actual performance we'll find out

50
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:47,680
after a message from our sponsor Jawa they make getting rid of your old

51
00:03:45,439 --> 00:03:50,879
graphics card Easy by just buying it off you themselves all you have to do is go

52
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:56,599
through the steps on their site to get an instant quote and a free shipping label most sellers will get paid within

53
00:03:54,599 --> 00:03:59,720
one business day after jaware receives the part and if you're looking to

54
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:03,280
upgrade your graphics card you can find big savings on their Marketplace of

55
00:04:01,079 --> 00:04:06,760
cards from users just like you each card is carefully inspected and quality

56
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:10,360
checked to make sure they're in working condition and it's not just graphics

57
00:04:08,439 --> 00:04:14,400
cards Jawa makes it easy to sell your old rig or buy one from an experienced

58
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:17,239
Builder sell your old card the easy way and offset the cost of a new one by

59
00:04:15,879 --> 00:04:21,440
checking out the link in the description below all right that was easy thanks to

60
00:04:19,280 --> 00:04:27,360
no 16 pin power connector just an 8 and a six pin nice and simple for a three

61
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:29,639
lighting modes we've got ice blue off if

62
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:33,160
you don't want any colors or purple purple I really like the purple that's

63
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:39,320
definitely for me we're going to stick to that cyberpunk 1080p FSR turned off

64
00:04:36,479 --> 00:04:44,639
so it's all Native we are getting 100 frames per second which is actually not

65
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:49,759
too bad but you know what it could be better FMF is basically

66
00:04:47,759 --> 00:04:56,280
just AMD's answer to NVIDIA's frame generation so we're going to enable FMF

67
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:58,919
and instantly oh my gosh 180 frames a

68
00:04:56,280 --> 00:05:03,360
second it's not quite doubling but that is an enormous leap it's hard to say if

69
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:08,000
I'm actually seeing any weird artifacting or anything that isn't just

70
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:11,240
kind of already in cyberpunk but even quickly flicking around like this icon

71
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:15,840
here isn't doing that same kind of artifacting that

72
00:05:13,639 --> 00:05:22,479
early frame generation had let's see what it can do if we up the resolution

73
00:05:18,199 --> 00:05:24,360
for down to like 60 on average 63 61

74
00:05:22,479 --> 00:05:29,000
okay not great it's definitely still playable let me turn on FSR gets a

75
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:34,680
little better with FSR but it's still not great 88 90 frames a second and now

76
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:39,639
I can really start to see some just kind of grow actually FSR is not terrible

77
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:44,240
feel like it's gotten better it's also a little unfair we're using a 4K screen

78
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:48,000
that's pretty big and scaling it down just isn't quite what we should be doing

79
00:05:45,919 --> 00:05:55,319
so it plays games but how well let's talk performance in 1080P atomic heart

80
00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:57,039
obviously loses to our 16 gig 4060 TI

81
00:05:55,319 --> 00:06:02,560
but it does slightly better than the Arc a770 in the 1% lows and moving up to

82
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:08,960
1440p we see basically the same thing in cyberpunk at 1080p our Ark a770 loses

83
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:11,520
once more but this time the averages is

84
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:17,080
quite Stark despite our 1% lows being almost the same in cyberpunk at 1440p

85
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:23,440
our RTX 460 TI actually really starts to lose ground here the 7600 XT actually

86
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:25,520
beats it in 1% lows by 1 FPS and loses

87
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:31,759
and averages by only three moving on to F1 2023 at 1080p our Arc card really

88
00:06:28,840 --> 00:06:36,800
starts to struggle here losing 28% performance compared against our 7600 XT

89
00:06:35,280 --> 00:06:43,479
the race also gets a little tighter between our 460 TI in the 7600 XT with

90
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:45,479
only a 10 FPS difference in our 1% lows

91
00:06:43,479 --> 00:06:51,639
what it really boils down to is price to Performance this card costs

92
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:54,039
$330 and the reality is while it has

93
00:06:51,639 --> 00:07:01,759
fewer gigs of vram at only 12 gigs instead of 16 a 6700 XT can be bought

94
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:03,840
both brand new or or used for about the

95
00:07:01,759 --> 00:07:09,599
same price as this card maybe even cheaper than that so unfortunately it's

96
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:16,360
just kind of a failure and I don't really understand why you'd buy a 7600

97
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:19,680
XT when unlike NVIDIA where they're kind

98
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:22,599
of gaing frame gen and dlss 3.0 behind

99
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:28,199
the 40 series cards AMD is not doing that the 6000 series can do it too so I

100
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:32,319
don't get it it took them a year to come out with this and it's it's just kind of

101
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:37,000
a non-starter I don't see the point in getting one and uh frankly I'm a little

102
00:07:35,199 --> 00:07:42,360
disappointed there are some minor benefits if you're into machine learning

103
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:44,199
or maybe if you just really need that 16

104
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:49,440
gigs of vram for video editing or something along those lines and you

105
00:07:46,199 --> 00:07:52,440
can't afford a 4060 TI maybe you get

106
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:54,520
this guy but even then I'm kind of

107
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:59,560
leaning towards Intel and going with an arc a770 for also around the same price

108
00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:04,319
as this overall it's just kind of a bad time to be a budget gamer the cards on

109
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:07,440
the low end from everyone just aren't performing the way they used to thanks

110
00:08:06,199 --> 00:08:15,440
for watching ShortCircuit if you want to check out another video card check out the 4070 super that's kind of doing

111
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,440
better but it costs a lot more money
