ASUS Radeon RX 6800 XT STRIX OC LC Review





ASUS also submitted a Radeon RX 6800 XT graphics card for review, this one is a bit more special though as it has been fitted with hybrid cooling. Yes, you'll see Liquid cooling applied on the primary GPU area, and then a fan can cool down some of the additional components. The end result is a graphics card that looks stunning and is very silent as well.

Definite waste of money for $999 for this liquid-cooled version, 9% more performance (when overclocked) than a $650 reference card (not overclocked), so you overclock the $650 reference card and narrow the 9% lead of the $999 liquid-cooled card even more. Waste of money!
You could buy the liquid cooled card for lower noise, but $999 vs $650....naaaa!

But seriously, Asus could have done something cleaner than that for the fan's wire...
It look a bit dirty.

Review: ASUS Radeon RX 6800 XT STRIX OC Liquid Cooled
did your sample have pads for all the memory modules? the one tpu received is missing a strip.

This is nothing, der8auer in his last video (yesterday) showed the RX 6800 XT from Powercolor reaching on air 2.7Ghz (like I said in the other article that Steve from hardware Unboxed said other cards can do) - with benchmarks too. A stable 2.7Ghz on air and also very quiet for air cooling. It also beat his own 3090 in those benchmarks with that OC
Like I said, these RX 6000s are champion overclockers. nvidia's RTX 3000s are nothing in OC compared to these.
So what???
Go buy one if you can:p
