The 6700 XT series will not (yet) replace the Navi lineup in the form of the 5700 XT;  Radeon RX 6700 XT has 2560 stream/Shader processors active, similar to that 5700 XT. However, the L3 cache and RDNA2 GPU architecture will make this a faster product. This card registers back to us at a 2669 MHz (reference 2581 MHz) max Turbo clock, which is pretty brutal TBH. The BIOS offers fan stop in idle, meaning the card is passive (not fans spinning) when not utilized, and that brings you the fortunate effect of a silent product. 

As mentioned, it weighs just over one and a half kg and is wide 2.9 slots wide, its length is almost 32cm. If you do NOT purchase the OC model, the card comes reference clocked, other than that it's all the same stuff really. These are out-of-the-box configured clock frequencies. Due to the cooling design, please be aware that the product oozes a substantial amount of warm air; you'll need a well-ventilated PC with a properly located intake (front) and vent (rear/top). That BIOS switch will offer you Perf and Silent mode; game performance-wise, the two are similar as only the FAN RPM is the differential, the temp difference is just a few degrees, but the difference in acoustics ginormous, so toggle the card to Silent mode and be done with it as you will not even hear the card setup like that. We'll show and measure it all up in the pages to follow.
