Pros: -price, i got this card for 99$ after rebate -aesthetics, great looking card - fast shipping

Cons: not an rx 480

Overall Review: if you can score this card for a good price it is still a good deal even with the new rx 460 just releasing.

Too big, but too small.

Pros: Cool looking Short Fits a noctua NHD15S

Cons: Size of a micro atx tower Limited airflow Only support for 2 slot gpu Supports long PSU, but only with the HDD case removed.

Overall Review: I don't recommend this card, it's too big for itx, but not big enough to fit full size parts comfortably.

Good, not great.

Sapphire NITRO+ AMD RADEON RX 6900 XT SE GAMING OC Graphics Card With 16GB GDDR6 HDMI / TRIPLE DP

Pros: Build quality: good, but feels cheap for a $1700 product. Doesnt feel flimsy, but doesnt feel anywhere near the rigidity of a reference model card. Not much GPU sag, which is nice. Though they do include a GPU support , which doesnt really fit anyways. Attractive LEDS, lots of color customizations, easy to use Sapphire Trixx software Awesome warranty service from Sapphire. Asus, eat your heart out.

Cons: COIL WHINNNNNNEEEEEEE Goodness, this thing screams when youre exceeding 200FPS. Wish it was thinner, has quite a lot of wasted space on the cooler that could have been used to make a more slim package.

Overall Review: I would recommend this card as an AIB, but I would consider it inferior to the reference model from AMD. temps are okay, will stabilize in the low 70s in a good airflow case. Seeing 2500mhz boost clocks in game, and the fans are decently good quiet.

Great performance, so-so experience.

Pros: Fast as hell Runs cool Quiet fans Pretty lights

Cons: Thiccc Boy, like, biggest card I've ever had. Would you like some cheese with that COIL WHINE?? WHAT? SORRY I CANT HEAR YOU. Costs wayyyy over MSRP, but that's not the cards fault. Only real downside is the coil whine, it's horrible, when loading certain games it'll sound like a dang floppy drive loading up DOOM. Overclock headroom was poor on my specific card, but these supposedly are pretty good.

Overall Review: Good if you can get it, 4k 60fps EASY. Things so fast that I'm technically CPU bottlenecked when running graphics benchmarks with a 3950x.
