Cmon, not all gaming on 4K with heavy mods (and this card is best for HD reso). There youtube reviews comparing 2GB with 4GB and there no difference in most benches.

I though this card competes with 1650S but its fast as 1660 and rx590. Im surprised.

Look at this review. The 4GB version is 5-22 FPS slower in 1080p games.
And the vulcan results in RDR2 are horrible. Looks like AMD has some work to do.

That or AMD needs to work on color compression. It does not seem to hurt the 4-6GB Nvidia GPUs.

I agree with your conclusion Hilbert. While it's a nice card that does what it sets out to do, who exactly is the target audience? The $150-$250 dollar market is so crowded right now I personally think AMD should have just went straight to the 5600's and skipped these.

I was expecting it to trade blows with the 570 instead it goes against 590 and 1660 ! Nice going .... although the 4gb model is a bit ...bleh

For only $200 and at those power figures I must say this little card is performing very nice.

Have you seen the performance figures a bit above your comment?
A very odd thing to say...

Boy, this is a more underwhelming release than the 10th series of Intel CPUs.

The performance loss going to 4GB is so great that it might as well have been reserved for the 5500 non-XT. Granted, if you're playing a game at 1080p, you don't need to use high/ultra texture settings, which would spare you enough VRAM where the performance hit won't be so brutal.

If you can have 8gb vram on 200$ card why would you go for less and play lower quality textures?
Its only matter of time 6gb cards gets similiar treatment.

Yes, I looked over the review. And here a couple more examples.

My dusty old card is starting to get beaten by entry level cards like this (especially the real 8GB model) quite badly, but I'm in no hurry to upgrade. I'll need to see the next generation from both camps. I reckon I will want HW raytracing to keep running the card for a few years at least. Of course nobody knows if AMD's first gen RT will amount to much, but probably they needed to convince Sony and MS, at least. For Nvidia it will be the second gen already, which is good, but one can only hope they won't go so crazy with the prices.
