XFX today launched its Radeon RX 7900 GRE graphics card. Although the custom-design card sticks with the company's RX 7000 series Speedster MERC board design, XFX did not assign a brand extension to this card. The card's styling appears identical to the RX 7800 XT Speedster QICK 319 Core Edition, a card it very likely shares most of its board design with. The RX 7900 GRE is based on a compact "Navi 31" package that's rumored to be pin-compatible with the "Navi 32," which is why most custom RX 7900 GRE cards appear to have board designs closer to their RX 7800 XT counterparts, than to custom RX 7900 XT cards.

The XFX RX 7900 GRE is 33.5 cm long, 13 cm tall, and is 3 slots thick. It features an aluminium fin-stack heatsink that appears identical to that of the RX 7800 XT QICK 319, ventilated by a trio of fans. XFX has given the RX 7900 GRE factory overclocked speeds of 2052 MHz Game clocks, compared to 1880 MHz reference Game clocks; while leaving the memory untouched at 18 Gbps. The card draws power from a pair of 8-pin PCIe power connectors. Display outputs include three DisplayPort 2.1 and one HDMI 2.1. The company didn't reveal pricing.

XFX is reported to be updating its existing Speedster QICK 319 RX 7800 XT Core Edition model—VideoCardz has discovered a pale variant, imaginatively dubbed as the "White Edition." The article does not disclose their source of information and photos, but a quick Google search reveals that Bermor Techzone (BTZ), a Philippines-based e-tailer, has the white version in stock—their listing indicates a price of ₱30,900 (~$552), with no added premium over the existing black model. VideoCardz believes that this is XFX's first foray into white RDNA 3 territories, perhaps in reaction to rival graphics card manufacturers offering a growing pool of almost colorless options.

A SNOW WOLF variant of the Radeon RX 6750 GRE 10 GB card was added to XFX's Chinese product lineup last October, marking the release of their first ever white design deployed on an AMD GPU. We hope to see alternative color options rolled out further up in XFX Radeon RX 7000-series hierarchy, but the QICK 319's treatment does not extend to its PCB (judging from the leaked photos)—fellow Team Red Navi hardware-specialist PowerColor has this market segment cornered it seems. VideoCardz reckons that an official unveiling of XFX's Radeon RX 7800 XT Speedster QICK 319 "white subvariant" is "imminent."

XFX has revealed its own Radeon RX 7800 XT and Radeon RX 7700 XT lineup, showing off a total of three SKUs. These include the Radeon RX 7800 XT QICK 319 Core Edition, the Radeon RX 7800 XT MERC 319 Black Edition, and the Radeon RX 7700 XT QICK 319 Black Edition. Interestingly, XFX is skipping AMD's reference design, and focusing on its own custom design for all models. The entire lineup is a part of XFX's Speedster series, with a clean design with "the sole purpose of maximizing airflow to improve cooling and performance."

Unfortunately, XFX has yet to disclose full specifications, so game and boost clocks are still listed as TBA for both the Radeon RX 7800 XT and the Radeon RX 7700 XT models. In terms of design, the XFX Radeon RX 7800 XT QICK features a triple-fan 2.5-slot design with 13 blades and a vented aluminium backplate. It also has a dual BIOS feature. The XFX Radeon RX 7800 XT MERC 319 Black Edition is listed to feature a 2.75-slot triple fan cooler with Vapor Chamber technology, a premium one-piece aluminium stamp cover, and a different and larger direct pass-through venting backplate. It will also feature dual BIOS and, according to specifications, a better dedicated 9-phase GPU VRM. The Radeon RX 7700 XT QICK 319 Black Edition is similar with a 2.5-slot triple fan cooler but has a slightly different design.
