Engine: Dawn Engine. We test using the Very High preset, DX12 API.

Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy is another game where, perhaps surprisingly, the 6500 XT does OK. I mean, even at it’s best with PCIe 4.0, it’s no faster than the GTX 1650 Super so we’re not exactly look at much, but it is actually a decent bit faster than the other AMD GPUs. Performance does drop by 10% when using PCIe 3.0 however, putting it just above the 5500 XT 8GB.
