Since its release, AMD’s Radeon RX 6000 series has wowed high-end and budget gamers alike, thanks to its new RDNA 2 architecture with features like DirectX 12 Ultimate, hardware-accelerated ray tracing, and FidelityFX Super Resolution. Today, AMD is launching updated versions of three different cards: the Radeon RX 6950 XT, Radeon RX 6750 XT, and Radeon RX 6650 XT, and ASUS is offering custom versions for gamers of all stripes. 

The ROG Strix LC Radeon RX 6950 XT combines high-end gaming prowess with liquid cooling

For a rig that takes no prisoners, the ultra-powerful ROG Strix LC Radeon RX 6950 XT brings top-tier RDNA 2 performance with a built-in overclock and a custom liquid cooling solution. Its full-coverage cold plate cools all the Super Alloy Power II premium components underneath, alongside a 240mm radiator to ensure you get the absolute most from this monster performer. 

Plus, its low-profile 2.2 slot heatsink means you can fit this card in more compact spaces, though its 600mm tubing run makes it compatible with roomy E-ATX cases as well. A blower fan keeps the VRM performing its best, and Super Alloy Power II premium components ensure this card will stand the test of time. The radiator comes bundled with two of our 120mm ARGB fans, which are Aura Sync compatible just like the RGB on the shroud—so your whole system will look amazing. And with two FanConnect II fan headers on the card, you can create custom fan curves that keep the right components cool when under pressure. 

The TUF Gaming Radeon RX 6950 XT showcases world-class performance and durability

For a more traditional air-cooled card that doesn’t sacrifice performance, check out the TUF Gaming Radeon RX 6950 XT. Its 2.9-slot heatsink with MaxContact Technology offers massive cooling potential, particularly when paired with the three updated Axial-tech fans. Our 0dB technology ensures these fans turn off entirely under low loads, only spinning up when temperatures reach 60°C. 

Our TUF cards are designed to take beatings as well as they dole them out. The shroud is made of tough metal, while the underside is protected with its own armor thanks to a stainless steel I/O bracket and strong vented backplate. A dual BIOS switch allows you to choose between maximum performance and quieter operation, while an Aura Sync-compatible logo sync with the rest of your machine’s RGB for a stylish unified look. Top-tier performance combined with unparalleled durability means this card will truly stand the test of time.

The ROG Strix line is all about offering best-in-class performance with an abundance of features. The ROG Strix Radeon RX 6750 XT starts with some of the best cooling you can get in a graphics card today: a 2.9-slot heatsink with MaxContact Technology provides abundant surface area for heat dissipation, aided by three upgraded Axial-tech fans for maximum airflow with less noise. 0dB Technology keeps the fans completely silent until the GPU reaches 60°C, and a dual BIOS switch allows you the choice between cranking performance to 11 or keeping the fans quieter. The card’s FanConnect II headers even allow you to sync your case fans with GPU temperature for optimal cooling. 

Strix offers just as much form as it does function, with RGB lighting that spans the length of its fiercely-designed shroud, compatible with all your other Aura Sync components. The backplate adds both flourish and stability, with a vent for the rightmost fan to efficiently dissipate heat. The stainless steel I/O bracket and reinforced metal frame provide extra durability for the Super Alloy Power II premium components, rounding out an excellent card that’s sure to be the centerpiece of any build it graces. 

The ASUS Dual Radeon RX 6750 XT is big on performance, small in size

While thick, triple-fan designs offer superb cooling at low noise levels, compact PCs necessitate more compact graphics cards. Our ASUS Dual Radeon RX 6750 XT takes excellent performance and packs it into a card that’ll fit in just about any small form factor build. Two axial-tech fans with dual ball bearings direct airflow right where its needed most, with the fans turning off completely under 55°C for peaceful silence during low-load tasks. A dual BIOS switch lets you customize your experience with maximum performance or low noise optimized settings. 

A small lighting strip graces the top of the shroud, while a protective backplate provides both a clean look and support to the PCB. Our Auto-Extreme Technology allows for pristine manufacturing with as little human intervention as possible, before a 144-hour validation that ensures excellent performance and longevity right out of the box. With its more compact size and accessible price, the Dual Radeon RX 6750 XT offers unrivaled bang for your buck.

If you want the features and flair of a Strix card with the affordability of the AMD's midrange offerings, the ROG Strix Radeon RX 6650 XT is for you. Smaller in size than the Strix Radeon RX 6750 XT, it has a similarly savage shroud covering the dual half-width Axial-tech fans, atop a 2.9-slot design that provides excellent heat dissipation for the powerful GPU underneath. 0dB technology only spins up the fans at 60°C, so you can enjoy peaceful silence during lighter workloads. The dual BIOS allows you to continue your quest for quiet operation or max out performance with the flick of a switch. 

Like the Strix and TUF cards, the ROG Strix Radeon RX 6650 XT is built with Super Alloy Power II premium components, a vented backplate, and stainless steel I/O bracket. A RGB logo on the right side of the shroud integrates with the rest of your system via Aura Sync for a unified look that’s anything but subtle. 

The ASUS Dual Radeon RX 6650 XT gives you all the essentials

Finally, if you’re looking for some of the best value in the lineup, the ASUS Dual Radeon RX 6650 XT brings all the midrange performance you could want in a card that with only the must-haves. Its Axial-tech fan design with dual ball fan bearings provides ample cooling that stays silent under light loads, while Auto-Extreme Technology ensures excellent durability and longevity. The stylish but under-the-radar shroud design keeps your build looking sleek, with a protective backplate and stainless steel I/O bracket that keep your card stable to do what it does best: pump out frames in all the latest games.
