A TUF PIECE OF KITReady for action the TUF Gaming Radeon RX 6800 XT is a tenacious beast with a tough metal exterior, super efficient cooling and high performing components featuring the all-new breakthrough RNDA2 architecture – engineered to deliver powerhouse performance to all gamers. The AMD Radeon™ RX 6800XT graphics card powers a new generation of competitive and 4K gaming with vivid visuals, and elevated experiences in every game and every frame with powerful enhanced new compute units, AMD Infinity Cache, DirectX 12/PCIe 4.0 Support and 16GB of dedicated GDDR6 memory. Experience gaming with realistic lighting, shadows, and reflections along with rich detail thanks to DirectX® Raytracing (DXR), variable rate shading (VRS), and AMD FidelityFX features, optimised for AMD RDNA™ 2 architecture. The AMD Radeon 6800XT is engineered to deliver ultra-high frame rates and serious 4K resolution gaming.

AXIAL-FAN TECHNOLOGYA new generation of axial-tech fans has risen with an increased blade count across all three fans; 13 blades on the center with 11 blades on the auxillary fans, the barrier rings on the side fans have been streamlined to allow for more lateral intake to allow better airflow through the cooling array. The central fans additional blades and full-height ring boost static pressure to blast air directly onto the heat spreader, These fans have been designed specifically for a massive new heatsink that features more fins and a larger surface area than previous iterations.

QUIET CUNNINGTo assist with the specialised roles of the three fans, the rotational direction of the center fan has been reversed in order to reduce turbulent air inside of the cooling array to give you heightend thermal performance and with fan stop technology fans will only start to spin when GPU temperature hits 60°C reducing noise and increasing fan longevity when under a light load.

ARMORED UNDERSIDEThe underside of the card reveals further improvements. Most of the rear is swathed in a protective metal backplate that prominently features a wide vent. This vent allows hot air to escape towards the chassis exhaust fans instead of being recycled back into the GPU cooler. An included GPU bracket provides extra stability to the critical connection between die and heat spreader. Stainless steel is used for the I/O bracket to protect ports and provide a more secure mount. And a conveniently placed Dual Bios switch allows customisation of the card’s default performance profile without software.

FUNCTIONAL FRONTThe front-side RGB element can be customized to display a range of aesthetic and functional effects, and also synced with other ASUS components to enable uniform lighting. To fulfill the power demands of the Radeon RX 6800 XT, two 8-pin power connectors are present, along with onboard LEDs that light up if PSU PCIe power connectors are not plugged in correctly. Structural pillars of a built-in reinforced metal frame are also visible here and add a literal layer of durability.

RDNA2 ARCHITECTUREAMD RDNA™ 2 architecture is the foundation of next-generation gaming PCs and consoles. It is the bedrock of the upcoming revolution in PC gaming graphics and cloud gaming. AMD RDNA™ 2 elevates and unifies visual effects and gameplay across multi- gaming platforms, like no other graphics architecture before.
