AMD Radeon RX 6600S vs AMD Radeon RX 6650M XT vs AMD Radeon RX 6650M

AMD Radeon RX 6600S

► remove from comparison AMD Radeon RX 6600S

The AMD Radeon RX 6600S is a mobile mid-range graphics card based on the Navi 23 chip (RDNA 2  architecture) manufactured in the modern 7nm process. It features 1,792 cores (28 CUs - compute units) and 8 GB of fast GDDR6 graphics memory connected with a 128 Bit memory bus. The chip also includes 32 MB Infinity Cache. The RAdeon RX 6600S is the power saving variant of the RX 6600M with reduced core speed of 1.88 GHz versus 2.2 GHz. 

AMD compares the gaming performance to a low power RTX 3060 for laptops (80W, former known as Max-Q). When Raytracing effects are activated, it falls behind the GeForce GPUs.

The Navi 21 chip is manufactured at TSMC in the modern 7nm process. Thanks to the reduced TDP of up to 80W, the RX 6600S is well suited for thin gaming laptops.

AMD Radeon RX 6650M XT

► remove from comparison AMD Radeon RX 6650M XT

The AMD Radeon RX 6650M XT is a mobile mid-range graphics card based on the Navi 23 chip (RDNA 2  architecture) manufactured in 7nm. It features 2,048 cores (32 CUs - compute units) and 8 GB of fast GDDR6 graphics memory connected with a 128 Bit memory bus. The chip also includes 32 MB Infinity Cache. The clock speed of the cores will depend on the laptop according to AMD. The specified game clock speed is 2162 MHz (most likely at 120 W TGP). 

AMD compares the performance to the RTX 3060 for laptops and similar to the RX 6600M. When Raytracing effects are activated, it falls behind the GeForce GPUs. Compared to the normal RX 6650M, the XT variant offers more shader, but at a slower clock speed.

The Navi 21 chip is manufactured at TSMC in the modern 7nm process.

AMD Radeon RX 6650M

► remove from comparison AMD Radeon RX 6650M

The AMD Radeon RX 6650M is a mobile mid-range graphics card based on the Navi 23 chip (RDNA 2  architecture) manufactured in the modern 7nm process. It features 1,792 cores (28 CUs - compute units) and 8 GB of fast GDDR6 graphics memory connected with a 128 Bit memory bus. The chip also includes 32 MB Infinity Cache. The clock speed of the cores will depend on the laptop according to AMD. The specified game clock speed is 2222 MHz and therefore only slightly more than the RX 6600M. The power consumption (TDP settings) ranges from 100 - 120 Watt (similar to Nvidia).

AMD compares the performance to the RTX 3060 for laptops and similar to the RX 6600M. When Raytracing effects are activated, it falls behind the GeForce GPUs.

The Navi 21 chip is manufactured at TSMC in the modern 7nm process.
