Custom Radeon RX 5500 XT Cards Start listing at Etailers
Over in the land way east, in China, the first Radeon RX 5500 XT cards have started listing. AMD is set to launch the mainstream cards next week on the 12th, in an aim to tackle NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 1650 Super.
The product pages do not list specs or photos, however, 8GB is confirmed as you can read out from the names, meaning AMD will out 4GB and 8GB SKUs of the card series. I am afraid that if we look at pricing then we have little to be excited about, the 8 GB models start at RMB ¥1,499 including taxes, and that is just over $210 USD. So for the EU that could easily run towards 240 EUR.
Listed are cards from ASRock, Sapphire, Yeston, and XFX. Dates are threefold, pre-orders start today (5th December), it ships on the 12th and the earliest delivery would be the 15th of December depending on the region. China is a rather big country though, admittedly.
I just love the Google translation on that Sapphire Platinum edition, oh you'll laugh when you see it ;)

Lower power consumption, lower heat, newer tech and not needing two PCIe leads are all reasons the 1650s may be a better buy in this case.
And not there is only a $20 difference between the 570 and 1650s most decent 4GB 570's are $130-140 the 1650s's are $150-160.
1650S is like 50$ more than rx570. No worth it i think.

I picked my Sapphire rx570 Pluse itx up for £95, its faster by up to 25%in some cases than a GTX 1650 its a no brainer, considering the Polaris tech is around 2 years old and still beating new "mid range/Buget cards".

the 1650S would make a lot of sense if it was a low profile card, but for 20-30$ more than the average 570 while being somewhat slower and aimed at the same type of build which already has ample cooling-space-psu its just hard to make the argument
