Gigabyte Radeon RX 7900 XTX & RX 7900 Elite, Gaming And Reference Models Made Official
Gigabyte seems to be making at least three custom models while two of the models will be kept as MBA ‘Reference’ designs. It looks like the Radeon RX 7900 XTX will get the top-tier treatment with an ELITE model while both the 7900 XTX & 7900 XT will get Gaming OC & Reference flavors. Judging by the lineup, it looks like Gigabyte is focusing on its Windforce design once again which comes in two iterations for each custom design. All graphics cards are based on a factory overclocked design so expect top-notch performance at a premium pricing over the reference models. Gigabyte RX 7900 XTX AORUS ELITE Graphics Card: So starting with the top model, we have the Gigabyte Radeon RX 7900 XTX Elite which features a 3.5-slot design with a triple fan and a backplate that extends beyond the PCB. The card features a custom PCB design that makes use of triple 8-pin connectors and it is the fastest variant of the trio with a game clock of up to 2510 MHz and a boost clock of 2680 MHz. The card also features a dual BIOS switch and comes with a stylish RGB accent around the fans. Gigabyte RX 7900 XTX & RX 7900 XT Gaming OC Models: The Gigabyte Radeon RX 7900 XTX & Radeon RX 7900 XT Gaming OC graphics cards are more of a standard affair with a 2-slot design and also tone down the power requirements by using a dual 8-pin connector layout. The card comes with a triple-fan cooler and has RGB LED illumination on the side of the shroud. The Radeon RX 7900 XTX Gaming OC features a 2330 MHz Game and 2525 MHz Boost clock while the Radeon RX 7900 XT features a 2175 MHz Game and 2535 MHz Boost clock. In both designs, we can see the backplate and shroud extending beyond the PCB. Gigabyte RX 7900 XTX & RX 7900 XT Reference Models:
