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.

new psu. get one that's SLI ready
If the PSU with 750w has two PCI-E cables, each cable with two 6+2 connectors, how do i connect them to this RX 6900XT? I have both cables connected to a RX 5700XT right now, what if i want to replace that GPU?

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).

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.

Wow, so many pins. Always more power consumption.. We need more performance with lower power consumption.
