The Radeon RX 6750 XT will include 12 GB of GDDR6 memory, which implies it will be coupled to a 192-bit wide memory bus, which remains to be a constraint. AMD attempts to compensate by operating it at 18 Gbps (effective data rate) and adding an extra L3 cache on-die on the GPU. Both will assist you at Full HD and WQHD resolutions, but if the L3 cache is drained, mostly in GPU-bound Ultra HD, performance will suffer.

ASUS equips the graphics card with its Axial fan technology, and the cooler adheres to the new maximum contact base plate. As noted, this card is close to three slots wide, and as a ROG, there are additional fan ports towards the back. The card's backplate is perforated and adopts a familiar black and silver color scheme while maintaining the customary four display outputs; a single HDMI 2.1 and three DisplayPort 1.4.

Power is supplied via an 8+8-pin layout neatly recessed into the backplate, and considering the enormous magnitude of the cooler, a factory overclock is included as standard. Don't expect to make a lot of money. Sapphire officially lists a boost frequency of 2,623MHz (2,554MHz game clock).  Frequencies oscillate at ~2,550MHz in real-world use, while the large 12GB GDDR6 frame buffer, connected via a 192-bit bus, operates at 18Gbps.

Do you prefer to keep your GPU operating within its capabilities? ASUS's alternative BIOS, which can be accessed through the hardware toggle on the top side, reduces the boost clock a small notch whilst remaining silent, still the card hardly makes noise in perf mode, so why even bother?
