XFX Preparing to Launch Two Radeon RX 7600 XT Graphics Cards
With the release of AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT set for January 24th, we expect a lot of custom versions from the usual AMD AIB partners, and XFX is coming with two of its own versions, the RX 7600 XT SWFT 210 and the RX 7600 XT QICK 309. In case you missed it, AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT comes with Navi 33 XT GPU and has the same 2048 Stream Processors as the previously available Radeon RX 7600 graphics card. On the other hand, the Radeon RX 7600 XT will come with higher clocks, higher power with 190 W TDP, which now require two 8-pin PCIe power connectors. The memory is also increased to 16 GB GDDR6 but it is still on the same 128-bit memory interface.
The XFX RX 7600 XT SWFT 210 is pretty much the same as the Radeon RX 7600 SWFT 210 SKU, except for additional 8-pin PCIe power connector. It is a budget-oriented SKU, so it sticks to dual-fan, dual-slot cooler design, and won't have a factory-overclock, but should launch at AMD's MSRP of $329. The XFX RX 7600 XT QICK 309 on the other hand uses a more hefty triple-fan, 2.5-slot cooler design, and will come a with a factory-overclock. Unfortunately, XFX is still not listing those clocks, but we expect a decent boost on those GPU clocks.

I guess this might be a play for a “cheap-ish card for AI to capitalize on the craze” kinda deal?
The RX 7600 never really sold at $280, and even discounted it's not worth buying over the RX 6650XT which is readily available still at $220-$240.Because AMD are idiots and didn't call the 8GB variant an XT, even though it's using the full die which the suffix XT has been reserved for, exclusively, since before AMD bought ATI in 2006.
7700XT is the real 7600XT just as 7800XT is the real 7700XT and 7900XT should have always been called the 7800XT
The C mounted nand can always be an issue with AiB designs not cooling the backside chips properly, that means never buying a design that hasn't been tested/reviewed by reputable professionals. This card has the deck stacked against it, looks like
128 bit bus is fine for 1080p tho, which makes 16GB even more pointless
Probably won't beat 6500 XT as the worst GPU release in recent years tho

4GB vRAM, 128 bit and PCIe lane gimping on top. Yeah, 6500 XT really needed that XT nomenclature. XTreme! XTremely Bad.
I have a Corsair RM550x PSU that is not compatible with their cable (table shows that it's only 650W+ compatible). Does it mean I'm cut-off RDNA4 or the lower tier chips will be still "normal" PCIe powered?
