Shown the first images of the PowerColor Red Devil based on the AMD RX 5700 and RX 5700 XT that will arrive in 'a few weeks'

Despite talk of custom AMD RX 5700 and RX 5700 XT cards arriving in September, it appears they will be released in August. AMD manufacturers have equipped their Navi-based 7nm graphics cards with their best coolers. Now, in addition to the XFX and ASUS models , PowerColor has also been spotted developing a new model.

The graphics card developed by PowerColor is made up of a large aluminum fin heatsink and three fans. Specifically, the heatsink has a thickness of 2.5 PCIe slots, to control the temperature. Logically, this graph is much more interesting than the AMD reference model, which uses a blower type fan.

Normally PowerColor goes for black and red for Red Devil models, but this is not the case. The company for these graphics has opted for a black and silver heatsink cover. A change that is unknown why, but it is a more universal color design. You miss that touch of color typical of the original line of the company.

The backplate covers practically the entire graphics card. The GPU area and part of the heatsink fins are left open. We can see the company's logo, which will apparently have a backlight. Maybe it's because of the color, but this backplate seems to be made of plastic.

For power, this PowerColor graphics card has two 8-pin PCIe connectors, so it won't possibly be overclocked. It should be noted that the Navi already have very tight frequencies and it will be difficult to see some overclocking in them.

As PowerColor has said, this graphics card will hit the market in 'a few weeks'. This means that we could see it between the end of August and the beginning of September.
