Pre Order, ETA 10/09/21.

This deals is only $34 more for what i would say is a much better designed card both in build quality and heat sink design with rear air venting above the aluminum back plate.
I purchased the RX5500XT version of this card a year ago for $229 and it runs super cool.
Bit of a wait but better then refreshing every day hoping a deal pops up.

Its nuts to think retailers are selling GTX 1660 Super's for $500+ when this thing is as fast as an RTX 2070, RX 5700 XT or RTX 3060 but uses only "160W" TDP

      From the review above, it's the software from Sapphire which seems to boost the performance further. Given this card is more or less the same as the Asus Strix version which is currently selling at $950, it's a great value at 'only' $639.

        How do you figure they are basically the same?

          I came across this comparison and looks like the cooling performance on the Pulse is pretty much on par with the more expensive Asus Strix and XFX triple fan. There's also a video on Youtube which analyses the 6600XT Pulse's PCB design and the guy was saying great things about it.

      I was at the front of the line cause i ordered the item before making the post… Oz bargained myself in the past by posting first… Maybe they found a few cards early.

  They have the the Asus Dual Radeon RX 6600 XT O8G Graphics Card $699 - Free postage
  https://www.jw.com.au/asus-dual-rx-6600-xt-o8g-graphics-card…

  i wonder if we will see prices drop to the $500 range again this year or $250-$300 value cards like we had 5 years ago with the RX470/480/GXT1060

    My 6600XT came in today (30/08/21) .. installed and running well.. fans almost never spin lol
    Power usage at idle is around 30w less then my RX470 4GB card and that was only120W TDP

    running dual 32" 1440P monitors at 144hz ( idle )

    it was posted from a store 30 minutes away from me by car in Southwest Sydney on the 23/08/21 so it took 7 days all up to make that 30 minute trip lol I was told by Auspost it was sent to a sorting facility out of the city first.

    Oh my. Mines only shipping in two weeks. How is that possible

      i ordered first before posting this deal here… i think they somehow got a few cards to send out early or someone canceled a previous order.

  Loving my new 6600XT.. its awesome.. kinda like if i upgraded my RX470 to a GTX1080ti/2080.. runs cool and uses so little power.. i will be buying another one of these as soon as the prices come down to earth.
