As previously mentioned, for the Radeon RX 7900 XTX Aorus Elite, the company has redesigned the cooling system. Now it has become more like a performance of Aorus Master. The cooling system includes a large heatsink with 10 copper heat pipes and three 100mm fans. The dimensions of the video card are 335 × 137 × 69 mm. It will take 3.5 expansion slots in the PC case.

For the full-sized Navi 31 GPU with 6144 cores at the heart of the Radeon RX 7900 XTX Aorus Elite, the manufacturer claims factory overclocking.

The gaming frequency of the new GPU is listed at 2500 MHz, which is 8.7% higher than the reference value for this model. The boost frequency of the graphics chip is 2680 MHz, which is 7.2% higher than the reference value.

The card received three 8-pin connectors for additional power. Gigabyte recommends using an 850W PSU with it. The equipment of the novelty also includes two DisplayPort 2.1 connectors and two HDMI 2.1.

The Radeon RX 7900 XTX Gaming OC and Radeon RX 7900 XT Gaming OC models feature a simpler cooling system (2.5 expansion slots thick). The dimensions of the video cards are 331 × 138 × 50 mm. Each has two 8-pin power connectors. For the older model, the company advises using a power supply unit with a power of 850 W or more, and for the younger model, with a power of 800 W or more.

The set of external video connectors for these new products is the same as for the Aorus Elite version – both received two DisplayPort 2.1 and two HDMI 2.1.

For the Radeon RX 7900 XTX Gaming OC model, the GPU gaming frequency is reported at 2330 MHz, which is 1.3% higher than the reference value. The boost frequency of the new GPU is 2525 MHz, which is 1% higher than the benchmark.

For the Navi 31 graphics chip with 5376 cores, which is used at the heart of the Radeon RX 7900 XT Gaming OC, the manufacturer specifies a gaming frequency of 2175 MHz. This is 8.7% higher than the reference value. The GPU boost frequency is 2535 MHz, which is 5.3% higher than the reference.

It should also be added that all the above Gigabyte video cards are equipped with a dual BIOS system, which offers quiet and productive modes of operation.

In addition to non-reference versions, the company also introduced reference versions of the Radeon RX 7900 XTX and Radeon RX 7900 XT video cards, but in their own branded packaging. These models are distinguished by AMD’s proprietary cooling system, the absence of additional GPU overclocking, the presence of a USB Type-C connector, as well as the absence of a dual BIOS system and more compact dimensions. Both will occupy a little more than two expansion slots in the PC case.

Both cards received two 8-pin power connectors. For the older model, a PSU with a power of 800 W or more is recommended, for the younger one, a power supply unit of 750 W or more is enough.
