And that’s it The Radeon RX 6950 XT is complemented by a 7-nanometer GPU Navi 21 XTXHthe same chip as in the Radeon RX 6900 XT LC, he adds 16 gigabytes total 1728 GB / s GDDR6 VRAM with 80 lightning-accelerated computing units at 2,100 MHz.

What’s more, it’s surprising that despite offering an improvement in performance over its predecessor of up to 4% and even achieving it 11% faster speed than GeForce RTX 3090this new GPU has better cost, with TBP only 335 watts.
