Ah, my favourite GPU. And still Steven does not want to admit he was wrong. Still writing this kind of nonsense:
Dear Steve. You can always offer these options and they apply to ANY GPU there is and will be:
1. Wait for better and/or cheaper ones
2. Buy second hand
Basically, every current GPU sucks because at some time in future there will be better deals and you get cheaper and/or faster card when you buy second hand.
Now there is very interesting question. What NEW GPU (not used) was better choice for same price range that 6500XT sold?
Oh, there wasn't any. So just wait or buy second hand, there are your options
If there is nothing better for same price, product is not overpriced and it just doesn't suck. Basically you tell that anyone that bought 6500 XT was an *****, because they could have waited or bought second hand
Also Steven still didn't realize this GPU is and was MOBILE, and released on desktop because there was basically nothing available.
