Projects included both old and new.
GameGangsta YouTube channel tested two builds with GeForce GTX 1060 and Radeon RX 6400 graphics cards. In some games, the performance difference between them was almost not felt.
The authors of the GameGangsta YouTube channel found out which video card is more suitable for games: the RX 6400 or the GTX 1060. The builds were tested in eight games. Projects included Grand Theft Auto V, Rainbow Six Siege, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Red Dead Redemption 2, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Watch Dogs Legion, Far Cry 6, Forza Horizon 5.
