SANTA CLARA, Calif. 
10/13/2021

AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) today laun­ched the AMD Rade­on™ RX 6600 gra­phics card, desi­gned to pro­vi­de visual­ly stun­ning, high-refresh rate 1080p gam­ing expe­ri­en­ces to the midran­ge market.

The AMD Rade­on RX 6600 gra­phics card lever­a­ges breakth­rough AMD RDNA™ 2 archi­tec­tu­re, the only gam­ing archi­tec­tu­re that spans from desk­top PCs, lap­tops and con­so­les to mobi­le devices and auto­mo­ti­ve info­tain­ment sys­tems. Offe­ring 32 MB of high-per­for­mance AMD Infi­ni­ty Cache, 8GB of GDDR6 memo­ry, AMD Smart Access Memo­ry™ tech­no­lo­gy and sup­port for the Micro­soft Win­dows 11 ope­ra­ting sys­tem, the AMD Rade­on RX 6600 gra­phics card is desi­gned to bring next-gene­ra­ti­on desk­top-level expe­ri­en­ces to PC gamers. It also sup­ports the AMD Fide­li­ty­FX™ Super Reso­lu­ti­on open-source spa­ti­al ups­ca­ling solu­ti­on, which is desi­gned to increase frame­ra­tes in sel­ect titles while deli­ve­ring high-reso­lu­ti­on gam­ing experiences.

The AMD Rade­on RX 6600 gra­phics card is desi­gned with the needs of future-rea­dy, high-per­for­mance 1080p gamers in mind. Capa­ble of dri­ving 100+ FPS in top AAA titles¹, the AMD Rade­on RX 6600 gra­phics card also offers up to 1.3X bet­ter per­for­mance-per-watt than the com­pe­ti­ti­on in sel­ect titles in 1080p at max set­tings².

“The latest gene­ra­ti­on of games deli­ver mas­si­ve leaps in life-like visu­als that are dri­ving more gra­phics per­for­mance to meet the demand for the best pos­si­ble 1080p gam­ing expe­ri­en­ces,” said Scott Her­kel­man, cor­po­ra­te vice pre­si­dent and gene­ral mana­ger, Gra­phics Busi­ness Unit at AMD. “To meet this demand, we’ve desi­gned the Rade­on RX 6600 to make the­se new breath­ta­king expe­ri­en­ces available to  more PC gamers, pro­vi­ding the per­for­mance of an enthu­si­ast-class power­house in a midran­ge solution.”

Next-Generation High-Performance 1080p Gaming

The AMD Rade­on RX 6600 gra­phics card offers an ide­al blend of per­for­mance and image qua­li­ty for excep­tio­nal gam­ing expe­ri­en­ces and is an ide­al choice for gamers see­king dis­play-maxing frame­ra­tes and crisp visu­al fide­li­ty at 1080p in today’s most deman­ding titles. The AMD Rade­on RX 6600 gra­phics card takes full advan­ta­ge of num­e­rous advan­ced fea­tures, including:

• AMD Fide­li­ty­FX tech­no­lo­gy – AMD Fide­li­ty­FX tech­no­lo­gy is an open-source tool­kit of visu­al enhance­ment effects for game deve­lo­pers available at AMD GPUO­pen. The new AMD Fide­li­ty­FX Super Reso­lu­ti­on (FSR) spa­ti­al ups­ca­ling tech­no­lo­gy, sup­port­ed on more than 100 AMD pro­ces­sors and AMD GPUs, as well as on sel­ect com­pe­ti­tor GPUs, offers an avera­ge 2X fas­ter per­for­mance across sel­ect titles in “Per­for­mance” mode at 1080p com­pared to nati­ve reso­lu­ti­on³. To date, game deve­lo­pers have added sup­port or announ­ced plans to add sup­port for FSR in 50 top games and game engines.
• AMD Smart Access Memo­ry (SAM) tech­no­lo­gy – Now sup­port­ing AMD Rade­on RX 5000 Series gra­phics, SAM tech­no­lo­gy unlocks hig­her per­for­mance when pai­ring AMD Rade­on RX 5000 or Rade­on RX 6000 Series gra­phics with AMD Ryzen™ 5000 or sel­ect Ryzen 3000 Series Desk­top Pro­ces­sors and AMD 500-series mother­boards by giving AMD Ryzen pro­ces­sors access to the enti­re high-speed GDDR6 GPU memory.
• AMD Infi­ni­ty Cache – 32 MB of last-level data cache inte­gra­ted on the GPU die helps redu­ce laten­cy and power con­sump­ti­on to enable hig­her gam­ing per­for­mance than tra­di­tio­nal archi­tec­tu­ral designs.
• Micro­soft Win­dows 11 Sup­port – With the latest AMD Rade­on Soft­ware Adre­na­lin release, AMD Rade­on gra­phics cards are opti­mi­zed for the latest Win­dows 11 per­for­mance opti­miza­ti­ons and fea­tures, inclu­ding DirectX® 12 Ulti­ma­te, Auto HDR, Micro­soft Direct­S­to­rage and more.
