Eagle RX 6500 XT 4GB — entry 1080p GPU

The GIGABYTE Eagle Radeon RX 6500 XT 4GB is a graphics card built on the AMD RDNA 2 architecture for 1080p gaming. It uses a Radeon RX 6500 XT chip with 1024 stream processors and a boost clock of 2815 MHz. The 4GB GDDR6 frame buffer runs on a 64-bit bus at 18000 MHz effective.

Check PCIe 4.0 slot and 650 W PSU

Verify that the motherboard provides a PCI Express 4.0 slot and that the power supply delivers at least 650 W with a 6-pin PCIe connector. The card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate and OpenGL 4.6 for modern titles. Two display outputs allow dual-monitor configurations.

Dual-fan WINDFORCE cooler with HDMI 2.1

The WINDFORCE 2X cooling system uses two alternate-spinning blade fans, composite copper heat pipes, a copper base plate and 3D active fan control for efficient heat dissipation. One HDMI 2.1 port and one DisplayPort 1.4a handle up to two monitors. ATX form factor fits standard chassis.

Questions about this item

Does the GV-R65XTEAGLE-4GD include any cables or adapters in the box, or do I need to buy a separate DisplayPort or HDMI cable?

The card ships with the WINDFORCE 2X cooler and a quick-install guide; cables are not included, so you will need a DisplayPort 1.4a or HDMI 2.1 cable that matches your monitor.

Should I choose the 4 GB 64-bit GDDR6 version or look for a larger frame buffer for 1080p gaming?

The 4 GB 64-bit GDDR6 configuration suits entry-level 1080p titles and esports games; if you target newer AAA releases at high texture settings, a card with more memory would be more comfortable.

What does the 2815 MHz boost clock mean once the Radeon RX 6500 XT is installed in my PCIe 4.0 slot?

The 2815 MHz boost clock is the peak frequency the 1024 stream processors can reach under load, delivering the performance level AMD defines for the RX 6500 XT when the board runs on a PCIe 4.0 link.
