THE TOXIC AMD RADEON RX 6950 XT LE

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

By using an AIO liquid cooler SAPPHIRE all but promises low temperatures at low noise levels.

 

 

As mentioned earlier TOXIC AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT Limited Edition is a rather small dual-slot graphics card that measures just 270mm in length, 130mm in height and 45mm in width.

 

 

In contrast here you can see just how small the SAPPHIRE TOXIC AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT LE card is compared to the 352mm long and 160mm tall GALAX GeForce RTX 3080 Ti HOF OC Lab Edition tri-slot model.

 

 

SAPPHIRE has used a hybrid fan to keep the VRM and memory temperatures in check (this fun is a quick-connect model which means you need to remove the card cover and just pull it up to release and replace it if needed).

 

 

As expected at the rear of the card we find the exhaust area.

 

 

At the front top of the card, we find the company logo underneath which SAPPHIRE has placed several ARGB LEDs.

 

 

In order to power this card, you'll need two 8-pin and one 6-pin power connectors.

 

 

The dual-BIOS (default/OC) switch is located at the front of the card next to the company logo (by default the switch is set at default BIOS).

 

 

A 3-pin ARGB connector is located at the rear end of the card.

 

 

As expected from a flagship model at the rear we find an aluminum backplate (plus more ARGB LEDs).

 

 

At the front of the card, we find three DP v1.4a DSC ports and a single HDMI v2.1 port.

 

 

SAPPHIRE (more accurately Asetek) has used 470mm long braided tubings to connect the card to the 360mm radiator.

 

 

With the fans installed the 394mm long radiator measures almost 52mm in thickness (so the radiator alone is roughly 27mm thick).

 

 

This radiator also sports an FPI (fins per inch) count of 19.

 

 

The three 120mm fans paired with this radiator are dual-ball bearing models, ARGB illuminated of course.

 

 

Worth pointing out is that SAPPHIRE has once again used radiator covers on the opposite side.
