Today’s the day for the Radeon crowd to dive into the first reviews of RDNA 2 cards from AMD, the Radeon RX 6800 and Radeon RX 6800 XT. We’ll keep this short and simple and load up the list of reviews we’ve been notified of so far:
AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT @ TweakTown
AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT & Radeon RX 6800 @ Hexus
AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT & Radeon RX 6800 @ @ Hot Hardware
AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT @ Guru3D
AMD Radeon RX 6800 @ Guru3D
Compared to the previously leaked engineering board, the latest Radeon RX 6000 series graphics card PCB gives us a better view of what to expect from AMD’s Big Navi “Navi 21” class products. It will still be based on an engineering board so the final design could be vastly different than what we are looking at here.

AMD’s Big Navi will feature 80 Compute Units (5120 Stream Processors). This card will be (for now) AMD exclusive. The Radeon RX 6900XT will be the AMD flagship series, which according to our sources will be in limited quantity. The card would allegedly feature 16GB of GDDR6 memory across a 256-bit bus. The graphics card would feature a 2040 MHz game clock and a 2330 MHz boost clock.

With the Sapphire Nitro+ Radeon RX 5700 XT 8G SE, we are testing another AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT graphics card on OCinside.de today. As always, we take a look at the special features, how the card performs in benchmarks, how well it can be overclocked, what the associated Sapphire software is good for and of course there is also a video of the nice RGB lighting!

We check out the more affordable Dual Radeon RX 5700 XT DUAL EVO OC edition. A product that sits on a more mainstream segment compared to the STRIX boards. The product is performing pretty spot on really. Fitted with a thick dual-fan cooling solution we have lots to talk about and check out of course.

Today we are going to evaluate a pair of ASUS GPUs, the TUF Gaming X3 Radeon RX 5700 EVO and RX 5700 XT EVO. The headlining feature intended to separate these cards from other designs is a much beefier cooler. ASUS says these cards have a 44% larger cooler surface area than before, a claim that should show itself in higher clocks, lower GPU temperatures, or both.

Sixty-four cores. Each core with an improved Zen 2 core, offering ~15% better IPC performance than Naples (as tested in our consumer CPU review), and doubled AVX2/FP performance. The chip has a total of 256 MB of L3 cache, and 128 PCIe 4.0 lanes. AMD’s second generation EPYC, in this case the EPYC 7742, is a behemoth.
