Sapphire Radeon RX 6950 XT Nitro+ 16GB Graphics Card Feature 1

Metal Backplate with Thermal Pad

The high quality aluminium backplate is not just for styling. It also protects the components on the backside of the PCB and helps dissipate the heat from the PCB with a high performance thermal pad in between.

Sapphire Radeon RX 6950 XT Nitro+ 16GB Graphics Card Feature 2

High TG Copper PCB

The GPU is mounted on to the high-density 14 layer 2oz Copper and high TG PCB to match the rapid speed, high current and increased power requirement of the GPU and memory to guarantee high stability of the PCB during operation.

Sapphire Radeon RX 6950 XT Nitro+ 16GB Graphics Card Feature 3

Optimized Composite Heatpipe

The composite heatpipes are fine-tuned for each individual cooling design with optimal heat flow, efficiently and evenly spreading out the heat to the entire cooling module.

Sapphire Radeon RX 6950 XT Nitro+ 16GB Graphics Card Feature 4

Wave Fin Design & V-Shape Fin Design for GPU Cooling

The WAVE Fin Design reduces friction when the wind goes into the fin module resulting in a reduction of the wind cut noise.

The V-shape fin design on top of the GPU accelerates and centralizes the air flow around the GPU to dissipate heat efficiently.

Sapphire Radeon RX 6950 XT Nitro+ 16GB Graphics Card Feature 5

Hybrid Fan Blade

The new hybrid fan design combines the quietness of a traditional axial fan design and strong air pressure of a blower fan design to generate an improvement in the downward air pressure through the fan while keeping the fan noise low.

Integrated Cooling Module

The combined Memory & VRM cooling module cools the memory, MOSFET, and the chokes.

Graphics Card Supporter

Bundled with a graphics card supporter to keep the graphics card in place on the PCIe Slot.

Fuse Protection

In order to protect your card, the SAPPHIRE cards have fuse protection built into the circuit of the external PCI-E power connector to keep the components safe.

Fan Quick Connect

If there’s a fan problem, you don’t have to return the entire card. SAPPHIRE or our channel partners will send out a replacement fan directly to you! That means they’re easy to remove, clean and replace, with just one screw holding them securely in place.

Sapphire Radeon RX 6950 XT Nitro+ 16GB Graphics Card Feature 6

Two-Ball Bearing

These feature Dual Ball bearing fans, which have an approximately 85% longer lifespan than sleeve bearings in our tests. The improvements to the fan blades means the solution is up to 10% quieter than the previous generation.

Sapphire Radeon RX 6950 XT Nitro+ 16GB Graphics Card Feature 7

Tri-X Cooling Technology

An innovative mixture of Robust VRM Cooling and independent memory thermal modules work in tandem to remove heat efficiently and effectively across all sections.

Tunnelled fins increase convection airflow and ensure wind continuously flows through the cooling and fan system.

Heat is dissipated by a trio of large efficient fans running anticlockwise to maximize airflow.

FidelityFX Contrast Adaptive Sharpening

Brings out the Details

Contrast Adaptive Sharpening (CAS) helps increase visual quality by enabling stunning visual sharpness with optional upscaling to restore detail lost after Temporal Anti-Aliasing (TAA) is applied. For games that support FidelityFX CAS, turning off Radeon™ Image Sharpening in Radeon™ Software to avoid over-sharpening is recommended.

FidelityFX Ambient Occlusion

More Realistic Geometry Shading

AMD RDNA™ architecture-optimized Combined Adaptive Compute Ambient Occlusion (CACAO) dynamically and efficiently helps improve the appearance of objects based their exposure to ambient light.

FidelityFX Variable Shading

Get Performance with Quality

Uses AMD RDNA™ 2 architecture support for variable rate shading (VRS) to analyse luminance and motion of frames to help optimize rendering for optimal performance without lowering the image quality.

DirectX® Raytracing

Experience Photorealistic Games

DirectX Raytracing (DXR) adds a new level of graphics realism to games through effects like reflections, shadows, and global illumination at real-time frame rates on AMD Radeon™ RX 6000 series graphics, thanks to AMD RDNA™ 2 architecture support for hardware-accelerated raytracing.

Radeon Super Resolution

Radeon™ Super Resolution (RSR) Is an upscaling feature built into AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition that gamers can take advantage of to unleash new levels of performance on any compatible game.

  • Powered by AMD FidelityFX™ Super Resolution
  • Works on Thousands of Games
  • Easy to Enable
