16 GB GDDR6 Radeon card

The PowerColor Red Dragon Radeon RX 6800 carries 16 GB of GDDR6 memory across a 256-bit bus. It targets gamers and creators who need high frame rates at 1440p or entry-level 4K. The board uses the AMD RDNA 2 architecture with 3840 stream processors. A factory overclock pushes the boost clock to 2170 MHz in OC mode.

Sustained load behaviour

Under continuous load the triple-fan cooler moves heat away from the GPU and memory modules. The card draws power through two 8-pin connectors and the system requires a 650 W supply. PCI Express 4.0 provides the data link to the platform. Clock speeds settle at the rated 2170 MHz OC or 2140 MHz Silent profiles depending on the selected BIOS setting.

Installation and common issues

The ATX form factor measures 310 mm in length and occupies 2.5 slots, so the case must clear that space. One HDMI 2.1 port and three DisplayPort 1.4 connectors handle modern displays. Builders sometimes forget both 8-pin power cables or use an undersized power supply, which causes instability. Ensure the motherboard has a free PCI Express 4.0 x16 slot.

Questions about this item

How loud or hot does the triple-fan cooler run when the Radeon RX 6800 hits its 2170 MHz OC boost clock all day?

The Red Dragon card uses a triple-fan design and offers a Silent BIOS profile capped at 2140 MHz, so you can trade a few megahertz for lower noise and thermals during long sessions.

My PSU only has a single 8-pin cable — will the 650 W minimum and dual 8-pin connectors on this card work?

The board requires two separate 8-pin power connectors and a 650 W supply minimum; a single cable with a daisy-chain plug is not recommended for stable operation.

Will the 12.20-inch length and 2.5-slot width fit alongside my older ATX motherboard and case without blocking PCIe slots?

At 310 mm long and 2.5 slots thick, the card follows ATX form factor but may cover the adjacent slot; verify your case clearance and motherboard layout before installing.
