As we know AMD’s Radeon RX 6600 graphics cards will be hitting the market pretty soon and as such the retailers have already started listing them on their sites. According to sources, the Gigabyte Radeon RX 6600 Eagle graphics card has been listed by several Australian retailers.
The ‘GV-R66EAGLE-8GD’ SKU from Gigabyte which had leaked out yesterday is a custom non-overclocked variant and has been listed by Computers Perth, PC AOS, Technology2You, and Inell.
All three of them have put up different prices with the cheapest listing at 805 AUD (600 USD) and up to 951 AUD (710 USD) over at Inell. So cutting down we have the card from AMD being listed at an average price of 900 AUD or 671 USD. Coming to another retailer Computers Perth, it has listed down the ASUS ROG STRIX RX 6600 XT for 1065 AUD or 794 USD. This card is 260 AUD or 194 USD cheaper than the XT variant.
However, Asus’s cards are high-end custom designs whereas Gigabyte’s Eagle series comes with a slightly cheaper price tag. According to the listings and the product SKU of the cards listed online, we know that the AMD Radeon RX 6600 will also feature an 8 GB GDDR6 memory interface.
There’s also a tweet given below by Coreteks, which suggests that the RX 6600 Non-XT will be launching in October however it will have a smaller stock compared to the Radeon RX 6600 XT.
The tech outlet states that AMD might push the RX 6600 XT over the RX 6600 since yields on 7nm are great and producing Navi 23 GPUs is not an issue. However, AMD understands the current market situation and also that consumers will buy graphics cards regardless of the price point so why sell a cut-down SKU with lower margins when you can sell a higher-end graphics card.
