Pros: - Blazing fast - Quiet whisper Quiet during normal usage/gaming sessions - 100% Fan noise sounds like white noise - Crazy OC headroom - Unique design aesthetic - Stable clocks, temps and performance - Dual BIOS - RGB ON/OFF button
Cons: - Out of box fan profile is too conservative which causes junction temps to climb to 90c - Could use more RGB lighting since theres a hardware button to turn it on/off - Unique design aesthetic (Love it or hate it) - RGB light bar can only be seen when looking up at the card in most instances - No RGB sync with MOBO via PCIE. Youll need a 5v aRGB cable (not supplied) that goes from the back of the card to your MOBO. - Polychrome software is meh but it works (Run as administrator)
Overall Review: This is a beast of a card. Others might look better, have better RGB etc. but as far as the fundamentals are concerned this thing is a beast. Its cool, quiet and FAST with lots of options for tweaking. Personally I think this thing is sexy and easily the best variant of the 69xx XT cards. Ive had two 6900XTs (XTXH variants) before this, the Sapphire Toxic and XFX Merc 319 Limited Black. Those cards were beastly fast as well but they couldnt do it while staying quiet and cool. No more trade offs with this guy. I am amazed by what Asrock has managed to do here. This was my first Asrock product but it probably wont be my last. Good job Asrock 👍
Pros: Not just a slight upgrade from the 6900XT, a decent leap forward! Literally took me from the Top 78% (with a 6700XT) to 98%. Thank goodness prices have normalized.
Cons: Nothing to report. The install was painless, and the gains were instantaneous.
Overall Review: Just do it! No regrets here! You could wait if you want, but why?
Pros: Excellent performance. Stays reasonably cool and the fan doesn't have any weird noise to it. Doesn't have that ugly glittery gamer look -- looks pretty nice.
Cons: Can draw a lot of power.
Overall Review: I like it. Upgraded from an RX 6700XT reference card and this thing was worth every penny. Attached a timespy result.
Pros: Runs all games flawlessly and was able to push older games even into 10K resolution. The card stays very cool for an air-cooled card and has a massive heatsink. OC these 6950XT were able to get to the 99th percentile of all GPUs and all for MSRP it's about time! Major upgrade from RDNA 1 feels cool as RDNA 1 was the top of the line before RDNA 2 excluding Radeon VII, so I was able to get the top of the line RDNA 2 albeit a bit pricer, you won't be disappointed with this GPU
Cons: Not super crazy about the green color design for the card but it is unique and has grown on me I love the Formula OC line so ASRock Green it is! lol I would have liked more/brighter RGB but I suppose then the cost would have increased so not really a con
Overall Review: If you can afford it this is the best GPU out there to compete with 3090 at half the price pairs awesome with AMD's latest platform and has lots of VRAM for future-proofing.
Pros: Good GPU to buy for same MSRP as the reference cards. RGB is minimal and clean which I like.
Cons: GPU does get loud if you increase the fan limit, I believe by default it limits it at a quiet amount which could negate some headroom for the gpu to boost. Temps are as expected for a very high-end card, though I'm sure you can easily undervolt this card for better temps at quieter fan speeds.
Overall Review: I did this review for ASRock review rebate program, but I was planning on making a review anyways as I feel obligated to since there's not much info around the 6950XTs
Pros: This card plays most games I have at max settings at my monitor's max refresh rate (144). The card also stays fairly cool. My fan curve in Andrenalin maxes at 55% and the hotspot has yet to get above 81C, which for an AMD card isnt bad! Fans are quiet as well at those settings. The build quality is also top notch, very sturdy card and the included gpu support bracket is a plus.
Cons: No cons that I have encountered so far. It is a chunky card, but I wouldnt say its a con. Most top tier cards are huge.
Overall Review: Great card! Would highly recommend to anyone. You also cant beat the price since it currently sells at reference card msrp.
Pros: The build quality of this GPU is top notch, every title I play is maxed out 1440P ultra or extreme settings. I highly recommend this product.
Cons: AMD Adrenalin has limits placed on overclocking which is something I think they'll change in the near future.
Overall Review: Recommend this Product. Make sure you have a PC with Great AirFlow Make sure your PSU is 1000W Plat for High Current as this one is hungry
Pros: Crazy overclock headroom, thermals are in check, never over 71C, and kicks boot, in all AAA games. Talking 250fps on ultra on 1440p.
Overall Review: All in all, this card is the best of the best. No issues thus far. Great gpu.
Pros: runs great, eats up anything i throw at it
Cons: Its pretty much the same as a 6900xt
Overall Review: runs good and is a strong card, but its just a lighty overclocked 6900xt
Pretty sleek looking GPU
