2kliksphilip | Using the 6500 XT with a Budget CPU @2kliksphilip | Uploaded February 2022 | Updated October 2024, 13 hours ago.
What if I try gaming on a 2200G with a 6500 XT thrown in?
Most videos test with newer components, but I figured a lot of buyers of the 6500 XT would be using it to modernise an older system. Since I have a 2200G (which itself was the ultimate budget gaming rig for years), it made logical sense to test it out with a 6500 XT. Can it help bring the 2200G into the modern era of gaming, or will its 4 cores hold things back? Will every component hold it back? What if the 2200G dies? etc. All this and more revealed in this very disappointing video :(

How did I get that 69% VS 5700G figure? Was surprisingly hard to find decent comparisons between the 2200G and newer APUs. So instead, to get a (very rough) comparison, I found websites comparing these CPUs and got the averages from the average integrated GPU results:
2200G VS 2400G - anandtech.com/show/12425/marrying-vega-and-zen-the-amd-ryzen-5-2400g-review
2400G VS 3400G - techspot.com/review/1878-amd-ryzen-3400g
Not the most accurate, but not bad for a footnote simply to show that new APUs aren't LEAGUES ahead in games.
