The 6500 is... okay. I mean, it's not amazing, but it's not bad for the price. But did you know it can do RAY TRACING? Apparently... I'm not expecting AMAZING performance here or anything, but we have to keep in mind the price. This GPU cost me $215. Does the cheapest gpu with ray traching support give a somewhat playable or enjoyable ray traced gaming experience? Well let's answer that today, shall we?
