Hey everyone! I'm looking to upgrade from my old GTX 1660 Super, and I found a PowerColor Radeon RX 6600 Fighter 8GB for $149. However, I also have the chance to get a free GTX 2060 Ventus XS. I'm wondering if the performance gain from the RX 6600 is worth that price over the free GTX 2060. I mainly play MMORPGs, and when I get into large raids, my current setup struggles a lot. Should I invest in the RX 6600 now, or just go with the GTX 2060 and save my money for a better upgrade later? Thanks in advance!

If the GTX 2060 is free, definitely take it! Test it out and see how it performs. It’s only about 10% slower than the RX 6600 and 6GB of VRAM should hold up fine in MMOs. Plus, if the game supports DLSS, you'll get even better performance!
Honestly, I don’t think it's worth it. Just stick with the GTX 2060 for now. It's a solid upgrade from the 1660 Super and you'll save that $149 for a better option in the future.
I’d go for the 2060 since it’s free. The performance boost from 1660 to 2060 is noticeable, and for now, it makes more sense than spending money on the RX 6600.
Exactly! Plus, you can always look for a better upgrade later without rushing into spending.
I’d just go with the 2060 and use it until you’re ready for a more significant upgrade. There isn’t a huge gap between it and the 6600.
A free GPU that’s nearly on par with the RX 6600? No brainer! Save that $149 for when you really need a new card.
Yeah, free is always better! Give it a shot before spending more cash.
