OcUK RX6600XT review thread

So, I made the following calculation. Buy the Sapphire Pulse, and then put my 1660ti up for sale. Even if I can get £200 for the latter I've turned the 660XT into a £170 card, which would then make it a sensible purchase. Have to say, having been playing Watchdogs Legion and Days Gone I am impressed with the performance. Cool and quiet, too. I am mindful of the PCI-E express concerns and I regard them as legitimate, but as I've paired it with an old Kaby Lake I5 and an Asus board I'm still seeing significant gains.

very similar, just sold my vega 56 to fund this card and actually pocketed £66, was rather unsure at the time but seems like a decent upgrade even if it real terms the 6600xt is overpriced! The card should be 250-300 really.
 
SAPPHIRE UPDATE: WARRANTY IS 3YR !!!!

Was an error, all AIB custom cards are 3yr, all AMD reference design sold by Sapphire is 2yr!
So all the current Pulse and Nitro series cards are 3yr warranty with OcUK. :)

Sorry to dredge this up @Gibbo , but can I confirm this would apply to the Sapphire 6800 XT Nitro+ I purchased in February please?

I see..! Good to see if he can confirm, it would appear though from his communication (regarding OcUK were your seller) to be so! :) The quoted piece contains no timestamp but he does mention all AIB custom which this appears to be. Apologies.

No apologies necessary, I did assume it would apply to all the models from the time of sale but being a bit anal about these things I just want to be certain. :p

After digesting it I understood your grey area, just need Gibbo to clarify now but it would look odd if honouring in the august statement then disowning you if you bought them earlier! :)
 
Diamond Multimedia is back in the game after 5 years with a new RX6600XT that looks like PowerColor's Fighter version and it’s as expensive as a diamond too! :D
The officially MSRP is 379 USD but the card is listed by the manufacturer at nearly twice that price :rolleyes:
