The AMD Radeon RX 6650 XT is a fine 1080p card, but at this price, there's not much reason to buy it

on the market for most people right now, and that's even more true now than it was when that card was released. That is the RX 6650 XT's competition and AMD throws away its historic advantage over Nvidia by pricing this card so high.

Which is, again, a real shame. We need more budget-conscious graphics cards out here in times like these, but this isn't that. Given the state of card restocks and inventories and supply chains, we can totally see customers simply not having the choice between an AMD Radeon RX 6650 XT and even just a plain old RTX 3060, a card that has some slightly worse performance than the RX 6650 XT in some workloads, but is more than 20% less expensive at MSRP.

It does, but other cards in this price range can simply do it better. This card's MSRP needs to be much closer to the RX 6600's for this card to be worth considering, all things being equal. Honestly, this could have been a great graphics card for budget builders and esports fans, but given that you lose literally nothing by going for an RTX 3060 Ti over this card, we can't really recommend this card except on a case by case basis.

These are not competitors to the SteamDeck when they're double the price. Unless they can price identical to the Steam Deck, there will be no competitor. You cannot say you're a competitor at twice the price of a base model Steam Deck.
