Radeon RX 6600 LE

AMD has a special RDNA2 based desktop variant for Lenovo.

In case you forgot, Lenovo introduced a mysterious Radeon GPU back in December last year. A card dubbed Radeon RX 6600 LE was incorrectly assumed to be the “Lenovo Edition.” Turns out it is not limited to Lenovo at all. The Chinese company Onda has just launched a new model called RX 6600 LE AEGIS, and we finally learn more about this card.

First of all, Onda confirmed that the card features the same GPU specs as the RX 6600. This means 1792 Stream Processors and 8GB GDDR6 memory across a 128-bit memory bus. In fact, even the TBP (Typical Board Power) matches that of the 6600, which is 132W. At this point, one may wonder what the actual difference between LE and non-LE models is, and to be frank, we do not know exactly.

What we do know is that there is a difference in the reported boost clock. Instead of 2491 MHz, the LE version runs at 2495 MHz. Naturally, that seems like a cosmetic change rather than something that dictates a different SKU name, so another theory is that LE models may use a different GPU like Navi 22. However, in ONDA’s case, they recommend downloading RX 6600 drivers for this model, so that is probably not true either.

When it comes to the Onda card, it is called RX 6600 LE AEGIS, which is Onda’s custom series design, now apparently available in white. If there’s something that you should know about Onda, it is that they are making many fewer cards these days than they used to. Their GTX 10 series lineup alone is larger than the 16/20/30 and 40 SKU list, while the company skipped Radeon RX 6000 models entirely. This RX 6600 is actually their first RDNA2 design, in fact, the first RDNA model entirely.
