AMD RX 6950 XT, 6750 XT & 6650 XT Review ft. Sapphire

Assassin's Creed Valhalla is an action role-playing video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft. It is the twelfth major installment and the twenty-second release in the Assassin's Creed series, and a successor to the 2018's Assassin's Creed Odyssey. The game was released on November 10, 2020, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Series S, and Stadia, while the PlayStation 5 version was released on November 12.

Engine: AnvilNext 2.0. We test using the Ultra High preset, DX12 API.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla is our first game to look at, starting at 1080p. Here we can see the RX 6650 XT averaging 93FPS, making it 5% faster than the original RX 6600 XT. The RX 6750 XT is 7% faster than the vanilla 6700 XT this time averaging just under 118FPS which is not at all far from the RX 6800. The RX 6950 XT meanwhile breaks past 150FPS, delivering 7% more performance than the RX 6900 XT.

Up at 1440p, the margins haven't changed for either the RX 6650 XT or the 6750 XT – both models are still 5 and 7% faster, respectively, than the original versions, which is fine but no great shakes. The RX 6950 XT however now sees a 10% boost over the 6900 XT, but do remember this is the factory overclocked Nitro+ model, whereas we tested the reference 6900 XT card.

As for 4K, the 6950 XT is now 12% faster than the RX 6900 XT, so it beats out even the RTX 3090 Ti Suprim X. The RX 6650 and 6750 XT are more muted with their performance gains however, with both cards just a couple of FPS ahead of their original versions.
