AMD RX 6600 XT Review ft. Gigabyte Gaming OC Pro

Total War Saga: Troy is a 2020 turn-based strategy video game developed by Creative Assembly Sofia and published by Sega. The game was released for Windows on 13 August 2020 as the second instalment in the Total War Saga subseries, succeeding Thrones of Britannia (2018). (Wikipedia).

Engine: TW Engine 3 (Warscape). We test using the Ultra preset, with unlimited video memory enabled, DX11 API.

As for Total War Saga: Troy, this is the only other game, aside from Control, where the RX 6600 XT proved slower than the RTX 3060. There's not much in it, and actually the 6600 XT delivered better 1% low performance, so we're counting this one as a draw. The 6600 XT is, however, 8% slower than the RX 5700 XT at 1080p, when we'd really expect it to be faster.

At 1440p the RX 6600 XT does fall behind the RTX 3060 by 9%, but once more that's when looking at average frame rates, and the 1% lows are much closer together. The RX 5700 XT is still clearly faster though, and that's not even mentioning the RTX 3060 Ti which is in a league of its own here.
