What does it cost today, and is that a good price?
Market confidence: LowAt $307 the RX 6400 is priced in line with its $307 representative market level. Only one retailer currently backs that price, so the level is a single data point rather than a market.
Limited market: only one retailer currently has a verified offer, so treat this price as a single data point.

Performance and where it ranks
Two different questions, side by side. Performance compares what the hardware can do; Value compares what that capability costs at today’s price. A product can rank high on one and low on the other — that gap is the point.

Balanced has no letter: it is a weighting preset, not a capability rubric. A grade answers “how well does this handle that job?” — price is never part of it. Relative Value puts the current market price back in.

This scenario carries a requirement candidates are checked against first: CUDA — Many local-LLM and diffusion toolchains are CUDA-only. ROCm and Vulkan builds exist and work, but they are not drop-in — check your toolchain before treating a non-NVIDIA card as an equivalent swap.

FAQ
How much case clearance should I allow for the RX 6400?
Tracked boards range from 155 to 155 mm in length. Select the exact board, then also allow for front radiators or fans, card height, slot thickness and power-cable bend; length alone does not guarantee fit.
Why does Relative Value change when I choose another scenario?
Each scenario changes the weights applied to capability, price and the other published factors. The hardware facts stay fixed, but the value question changes, so its score and rank can change too.
Why can Amazon appear without a tracked price?
Amazon listing snapshots can participate in Value while fresh. We show Check on Amazon instead of its price; confirm the current price and availability at the store. When no current listing snapshot exists, Amazon is a search link only.
