GIGABYTE Adds Radeon RX 6900 XT Gaming OC Boosting at 2285 MHz
Gigabyte launches a customized series of Radeon RX 6900 XT Gaming OC graphics cards, armed with a three fan cooler and a few tweaks, of course.
The Gaming OC is listed under SKU GV-R69XTGAMING OC-16GD is armed with a massive triple-slot cooling solution and a custom-design PCB. Interestingly enough, Gigabyte has not yet released an Aorus model. The card pulls power from three 8-pin PCIe power connectors and sees a 2285 MHz clock frequency (2250 MHz reference) and a slightly higher power-limiter. With two BIOSes, you can select a normal or silent mode performing product. Monitor outputs reveal a duo of HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4a connectors. There's no word on pricing and availability.

Yes do that. It will work fine.
The PSU i have already has each cable whith a splitter, each cable have two 6+2 pins, so i could connect two 6+2 pins from a cable, and one 6+2 pins from other cable, but how it will work? I will get a RX 6800XT anyway, or an RX 7800X, but it's an interesting question if someone have a similar PSU and want to get a GPU like this.

@SnakeHaveYou since it is built like that all you have to do is just plug the 6+2 pins and you are ready to go. And i am pretty sure does not matter if the 3rd one is from the first or second rail. I am sure they both fall on the same 12v rail.

I just thought of something. Looks like Nvidia is coming out with the 20GB version of 3080, which they would call 3080ti (as per many 'initial' reports). Doing that would place the 16GB 6900XT in a predicament .. given it was already behind 3090 in terms of memory.
But what IF, AMD comes out with 6950XT with 20 to 32GB memory (remember Radeon 395?) .. as the process matures .. to even things out. But only if AMD is 'proactive' .. that is.

wow Gigabyte has been on a tear the last two years. they really needed aorus to boost their standing after too many years with post-review spec changes and too thin mobos.
i set up my friends aorus master elite x570 and wow, well made. i guess they're trying to emulate MSI (in the way MSI became respectable and preferred).
if this 6900xt is as well made as a flagship should be, and if it ain't $1,200 after the market settles down this should get many fans (and not just in the case).
Gigabyte motherboards are very good, some models have Sound Blaster onboard, i have a X79 from Gigabyte with a Sound Blaster XFi and made my earphones sound very good, with very good bass and treble, with very low latency with Creative ASIO to work with music production software, i didn't need to buy an USB sound card to produce music, but i had to buy a mixer to connect a XLR microphone. Now i have an ASUS with Realtek, and i had to get a Sound Blaster AE-7 to get the sound quality i had, even for gaming is better.
If you are trying to simply replace the 5700XT with this, then depending on your PSU, you can get a 'splitter' .. that makes one of your 6+2 connector into two. But safety of this depends on your PSU. You can consider visiting the customer care .. to seek technical opinion.
Else it is what tunejunky said, buy a new PSU which has 3 or 4 pairs.
