The AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT marks the debut of AMD’s smaller Navi 22 GPU, which we’ll call Little Big Navi or Medium Navi or something. Officially priced at £419, AMD pits the RX 6700 XT against both the RTX 3060 Ti and the RTX 3070, targeting the sweet spot for price and performance among the best graphics cards and landing in the upper ranks of our GPU benchmark hierarchy.

Architecturally, Navi 22 doesn’t lose any features from Big Navi and RDNA2. What AMD has done echoes what we’ve seen in previous generations of GPUs. It’s trimmed the fat, shrinking the die size by reducing the number of shader cores, memory controllers and Infinity Cache.
