This latest graphics card, dubbed the "Polar Elves," incorporates a single fan and adheres to the Mini-ITX form factor, demonstrating Sapphire's trend toward distinctive design choices.



The well-established graphics card producer, Sapphire, has recently announced the Radeon RX 6500 XT, which utilizes a white printed circuit board (PCB). 

Significantly, the "Power Elves" debuts the "Angular Velocity Fan Blade" design, a feature first observed in the Radeon RX 7000 PULSE and NITRO series. In a departure from the standard RGB lighting trend, this GPU presents a clean, all-white aesthetic.

As for the specifics of the Radeon RX 6500 XT "Polar Elves," information remains scarce, including data regarding available display connectors. Given its power requisites, it can be projected that a single 8-pin power connector might be part of the package. Sapphire has chosen the RDNA2 desktop GPU over the more recent RX 7600 model for this iteration. This decision results in a Navi 24 XT card equipped with 1024 Stream Processors and 8GB of GDDR6 memory. However, the 64-bit memory bus might not meet some users' expectations for a 2023 graphics card release.
