Sapphire's Radeon RX 7900 Cards Make an Early Appearance on Amazon
Although we're almost two weeks away from the official launch of AMD's Radeon RX 7900-series, Sapphire's reference design cards have already made an early appearance on Amazon. Both of its cards are listed on the e-tailers website, but sadly without pricing. No new specs were provided either, but at least we did get some more detailed pictures of the two cards. The cards are simply named the Radeon RX 7900 XT Gaming (21323-01-20G) and the Radeon RX 7900 XTX Gaming (21322-01-20G).
It's very clear from the pictures that the Radeon RX 7900 XTX is a much chunkier card than the RX 7900 XT. This also confirms Sapphire as one of the partners that will sell reference cards, but it's unclear if Sapphire will have custom cards ready in time for the launch, or if the company will add those to its line-up at a later date. Note that the model number for the Radeon RX 7900 XTX lists it as having 20 GB of VRAM, although the packaging clearly lists it as having 24 GB. Searching for the model numbers provided by Amazon, it appears that the cards will be in stock in Sweden as well, as one of the local distributors is listing the cards. More pictures after the break.

It's super dull.
Why didn't they put at least some RGB?
Look at how beautiful the cards were back in time!
Read some physics - basic physics.
Light energy can be converted into heat energy. A black object absorbs all wavelengths of light and converts them into heat, so the object gets warm. A white object reflects all wavelengths of light, so the light is not converted into heat and the temperature of the object does not increase noticeably.
are black objects hotter than white - Google Search
Black radiator is the best for winter months since its electricity consumption will be lower and its temperature will be lost slower than if it were white.
Ok, I will tell you in a more simple language. It's more difficult to cool down a black object.
These stupid idiots at AMD.
Will refuse to buy this crap RX 7900 XT now :mad:
