Next month the AMD RX 6800 XT (and other models) presented yesterday will be launched on the market. It seems that AMD has given the assemblers permission to show their custom models. MSI has shown the RX 6800 XT Gaming X Trio, which is identical to the RTX 3070 Gaming X Trio on a visual level.
About the AMD graphics there are many doubts that remain to be resolved after the presentation that happened yesterday. Although in some points they indicated better performance than the RTX 3000, it was with certain 'chetos'. In addition, many questions remain about the performance and implementation of support for RayTracing technology, which would be worse than NVIDIA's.

Not much data has been revealed for these new graphics cards, well, practically no data. The heatsink design is the same as that offered on the RTX 3070 Gaming X Trio, so we know something. The RX 6800 XT Gaming X Trio features an aluminum finned heatsink crossed by 6 6mm copper heatpipes. In addition, three 10mm Torx Fans have been installed to improve cooling to the maximum.
It seems that with the factory power connectors it will be more than enough for this graph. And is that the MSI RX 6800 XT Gaming X Trio uses two 8 + 8-pin PCIe connectors, just like the model shown by AMD. We don't know when factory overclocking will take this graph, but the heatsink allows quite a bit.
Although it is well known that to unfold the full potential of the AMD RDNA2, Ryzen 5000 processors will be needed. Smart Memory Access technology is only compatible with the new Ryzen 5000 and the AMD 5000 Series chipset. So to get the most out of them we should change the entire setup, since with the Ryzen 3000 or the Intel Core these new graphics do not perform so well.
