The forgotten Radeon RX 6900 XTX with a water cooler has appeared

We will talk about the Radeon RX 6900 XTX card, ie an absolute desktop hi-end of a new generation, which, however, was never introduced and thus not even launched on the market. It can remind us of the top of the Vega series, or Radeon RX Vega 64 Liquid, as it was equipped with the same GPU as the Vega 64 series, but thanks to water cooling at higher rates.

The AMD Radeon RX 6900 XTX has essentially the same design as the aforementioned Vega 64 Liquid, as it is the card from which the AIO water cooler dissipates heat to the radiator, which looks like a classic 120mm version designed for installation on the rear fan position of the cabinet.

Two images of this Radeon have appeared on the server Weibo (via VideoCardz) and clearly show the card, whose heatsink design places it in the current generation and also shows the additional power supply via two 8-pin PCIe connectors. This means that the card can be powered by a maximum of 375 W, but the real TBP will of course be lower and we do not know the specific value. The Radeon RX 6900 XT has a TBP of 300 W, so the 6900 XTX could have this value somewhere between 300 and 350 W. –

It is possible that the GPU designed for this unreleased card could be used by AMD with its AIB partners as Navi 21 marked XTXH for new versions of Rade 69X Radeons. These are ASRock RX 6900 XT OC Formula, Sapphire RX 6900 XT Toxic Extreme PowerColor Radeon RX 6900 XT Liquid Devil Ultimate, which the overclocker Der8auer got on a record 3225 MHz. These cards use GPUs with the maximum clock cap removed, or rather it has actually been increased from 3 to 4 GHz, but it is probably difficult for anyone to overclock this GPU so that the new ceiling would be any limiting. –

If the GPU for the planned 6900 XTX models was actually given to the AIB manufacturers to create special series of Radeon RX 6900 XTs, then it looks like we won’t really see the XTX version.
