humbug

Hi, I'm confused.

I'm looking for a new GPU to replace my ageing Radeon 390, I have seen people pointing to the video liked below to say the Radeon 6500 is really bad and not to buy it, yes I can see that but they are also saying I should buy the RTX 3050, again your video would seem to agree with that provided its at a price between $370 and $450, but not at $500, at which point you say we should buy the Radeon 6600.

So the RTX 3050 currently starts at around £370 on OCUK, no where near $500 which I think would be around £460, You mentioned the Radeon 6600 so I looked at that, it is a little more expensive at £399, there is also the RTX 3060 at £499 but that is pushing my budget.

Both of those seem to be much better than the RTX 3050 but you're not recommending those, the RTX 3050 is around $400, that's $100 under the point where you say we should buy the Radeon 6600, why is that? it seems a much better GPU for nearly the same money, is there something wrong with the Radeon 6600 where its not the one to buy unless the RTX 3050 is much more expensive?

I don't know what to do......
