This GPU model from Gigabyte is based on AMD RDNA2 architecture and one of the mid-tier AMD Radeon 6000 Series GPUs. The Gigabyte Radeon RX 6700 XT Eagle 12G features 12 gigabytes of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit interface and 384 Gbps bandwidth. If the GPU is paired with an AMD Ryzen 5000 Series CPU, it can use AMD Smart Access Memory technology for better performance. There are two DisplayPort 1.4a and two HDMI 2.1 ports, both of which can deliver 4K resolution at up to 120 Hz.
The thermal design includes the company’s Windforce 3X cooling system with three 80 mm fans that alternate directions, which reduces turbulence and creates better airflow. Even the fan blades have been custom molded in 3D to guide the air more efficiently. To make the fans last longer and stay quieter, Gigabyte uses a graphene nano lubricant. The Gigabyte Radeon RX 6700 XT Eagle 12G also supports RGB Fusion 2.0 feature, which allows the user to customize lighting effects on the GPU. Now for a limited time, holiday time shoppers can get the Gigabyte Radeon RX 6700 XT Eagle 12G graphics card for $419.99.
