PowerColor Red Dragon RX 6800 XT 16GB

The PowerColor Red Dragon Radeon RX 6800 XT is a refurbished graphics card built on the AMD RDNA 2 architecture with 16GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus. It targets enthusiasts who want high frame rates at 1440p or entry-level 4K gaming. The card ships with a factory overclock profile that pushes the boost clock up to 2310 MHz.

Check PCIe 4.0 slot and 750W power supply

Verify that your motherboard provides a PCI Express 4.0 x16 slot and that your power supply delivers at least 750W with two available 8-pin connectors. The board requires a 300W thermal design power budget, so adequate case airflow for the triple-fan cooler is also essential. Confirm your chassis length clearance before ordering.

Upgrade from 8GB cards or RDNA 1 GPUs

Moving from an 8GB model or an earlier RDNA 1 GPU adds 16GB of VRAM and 4608 stream processors, which helps with modern texture packs and higher resolutions. The jump is worthwhile when you play at 1440p ultra or 4K medium settings and need the extra memory bandwidth of 16.0 Gbps. DirectX 12 Ultimate support also future-proofs newer titles.

Questions about this item

Does the card ship with the two 8-pin power cables, or do I need to supply them from my PSU?

The card requires two 8-pin PCIe connectors rated for 300 W; the cables come from your power supply, not the box.

Is the 16 GB GDDR6 frame buffer the only memory option for this Red Dragon model?

This Red Dragon SKU is built with 16 GB of GDDR6 on a 256-bit bus running at 16.0 Gbps; no other capacities are offered for this card.

What does the 2310 MHz OC boost clock actually deliver once the card is installed in a PCIe 4.0 system with a 750 W PSU?

In OC mode the GPU can reach 2310 MHz boost and 2065 MHz game clock, provided the 750 W supply and two 8-pin connectors feed the 300 W board power limit.
