AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT

The RX 6950 XT is an “overclocked-from-the-factory” version of the 6900 XT. It features faster memory and higher clock speeds, making it the single most powerful 6000-series card. It was designed to compete with NVIDIA’s RTX 3090 Ti for the title of the fastest gaming GPU in the world at the time.

Main Features
Supercharged RDNA 2 Architecture: The most refined version of the Navi 21 KXTX chip, offering the best performance stability and highest frequencies of the generation.

Upgraded 16GB GDDR6 Memory: Features faster 18 Gbps memory (up from 16 Gbps on the 6900 XT), increasing total bandwidth to 576 GB/s.

128MB Infinity Cache: Provides a massive speed boost, especially at 4K resolution, by keeping game data close to the processor.

Peak 4K Ultra Performance: Built specifically to handle 4K gaming at max settings with very high frame rates.

80 Ray Accelerators: Hardware-accelerated ray tracing for high-fidelity lighting and reflections.

FSR 3 & Frame Generation: Fully supports AMD’s latest software tech, enabling playable frame rates even in the most demanding “unoptimized” modern titles at 4K.

DirectStorage Support: Optimized for faster game loading times on Windows 11.

Premium Binning: These cards use the highest-quality silicon chips, meaning they can often be pushed even further with manual overclocking or made more efficient through “undervolting.”
