Product Overview
Sapphire NITRO+ Radeon RX 6700 XT is a factory-overclocked graphics card on AMD's RDNA 2 architecture. Sharing the same design with other NITRO-series cards, the NITRO+ RX 6700 XT offers robust cooling and solid construction.
Naturally, the NITRO+ RX 6700 XT comes with 2560 stream processors with 12GB GDDR6 memory. What distinguishes it is the 2622MHz boost clock, which is identical to that of equivalent models from the competition.
With the RDNA 2 architecture, including support for DirectX 12 Ultimate and Hardware Raytracing, the RX 6700 XT is a serious contender for 1440p gaming.
Sapphire also markets two other RX 6700 XT cards in the reference and PULSE guises.

Reviewer score 71% AMD's Navi 22 is the highest clocked GPU we've ever seen. Out of the box, running stock clocks, many games will push the 6700 XT beyond 2.5GHz. Overclocking pushed the Nitro+ up to 244W in Metro Exodus, but a rather impressive 303W in FurMark.
