Polychrome SYNC Phantom Gaming 3X Cooling System Striped Axial Fan Reinforced Metal Frame Stylish Metal Backplate 0dB Silent Cooling Super Alloy Graphics Card
Pros: Runs every game flawlessly at 1440p. RE, Tomb Raider, Battlefield, Wolfenstein and Bioshock series are the kind of games I play and the card renders the newest ones beautifully and even perks up some of the older titles a little. Runs my Oculus Rift flawlessly as well.
The fans stand at attention, spool up ultra quiet even under heavy load and come to a dead stop as soon as I log off of a game which are all huge pluses having an open air layout.
Got it paired with a Seasonic Focus 850w power supply which more than handles the demand.
Cons: It is large and heavy. I went from a 1080GTX (pictured above the 6800XT). Had to mount it vertically and have a wine cork under the 3rd fan to keep it level because it didn't look right horizontal in the case with a card stand.
Now for the ugly part but it is not the card's fault, the price. $1500 out the door, taxes and all is about how much I spent on my last entire upgrade. Is it worth it? To me yeah but I'm a tech addict. If you have a good bit of life left on your old card I'd hold till mid 2022.
Overall Review: Overall I'd recommend this card to anyone who has the change to spare and room in their case. If you're on the fence and can wait, definitely do so.
It's a great card and is leaps and bounds above what I upgraded from.
Pros: This thing runs all games like a boss. CP 2077 Ultra settings paired with 5950x/aorus x570 master/32gig trident z neo/1tb samsung 980 pro m2 gets me averaging 80-90 fps steady. When gigabyte comes out with a decent mobo bios and I'm sure amd will fine tune their software as well, it will get even better. 9 out of 10 all day. Edit, this is at 1440p @ 144hz.
Cons: Price
Overall Review: Would definitely recommend this to anyone.
Cons: No video out until drivers were installed with intel 12th gen
software for the argb on it is hard to find and when found doesn't even open
Overall Review: Overall, I'd recommend it if you get integrated graphics on the CPU in order to install drivers

Pros: Runs w/o crashing occasionally under full load like my 6900XT does.
Cons: None so far.
Overall Review: Wish I would have bought this first before the RX-6900XT that randomly crashes under full load.

Good Card5/10/2022 7:56:17 AM
Pros: Fast
Quiet
Cool
Cons: Sags pretty noticeably, needs a brace under the third fan to keep card straight
Overall Review: Fast GPU, at stock settings pulls 272 ish watts under load, hits only the mid 60s for temp and upper 70s for hotspot. Plenty of room for OCing, whisper quiet. With a custom fan profile the cooler can keep the GPU under 60C at all times without noticeable noise. Fantastic heatsink.
