Le Radeon RX 6800 and 6800 XT will debut on 11 November, but for the models entirely customized by AMD partners you will have to wait at least another week . Asus has announced that it is working on several products, including a solution with an air-liquid cooling system, and all the other AIB manufacturers are also busy in fine-tuning their designs: among these we obviously also find Sapphire .

The company, in the past few hours, has announced the arrival of two Radeon RX 6800 XT, one NITRO + model designed for the most demanding public and a Pulse model for those who want to have high performance but do not need special features . As can be seen from the two teasers, both cards have a three-fan cooling system with a cover black, which on the Pulse earns red inserts. Both cards look rather bulky, so they should take up at least 2.5 slots – if not more – inside the case.

The new Radeon RX 6800 AMD’s XT offers 72 Compute Unit for a total of 4608 stream processor, 72 Ray Accelerator, 288 Texture Unit and 128 ROPs . The board is equipped with 16 GB of GDDR6 a 16 Gbps on bus a 256 bit and has 128 MB of Infinity Cache memory which increases the memory bandwidth up to 512 GB / s. AMD has indicated a price of 649 tax-free dollars for this proposal, but it is likely that the custom models will cost more.
