Description of Video card GIGABYTE Radeon RX 6800 GAMING OC 16GB (GV-R68GAMING OC-16GD), Retail

P/N 812872 WINDFORCE 3X Cooling System The WINDFORCE 3X cooling system features a proprietary heatsink, 5 composite copper direct-to-GPU heatpipes, three 80mm fans with a unique blade profile, and proprietary Alternate Spinning, 3D Active Fan, and Screen Cooling features that all Together, they provide effective cooling to key components of the graphics card. Direct Contact HeatpipesSpecially shaped pure copper heatpipes increase the direct contact area with the GPU. In addition, the heatpipes make contact through a metal plate with the video RAM area, ensuring proper cooling of the video memory chips. RGB FUSION 2.0 Customizable color scheme, 16.7 million color shades, multiple lighting effects and the ability to synchronize the board with other devices in the AORUS family. Protective metal plate The back surface of the printed circuit board is covered with a metal plate, which reliably protects the structure as a whole and the components soldered on the board in particular from damage, for example, in the event of a product falling, and also helps to minimize bending and torsion loads. Dual BIOS TechnologyIn Silent mode, the noise from the fans is significantly lower. To activate the selected mode after switching, a reboot is required. By default, OC mode is enabled. 3D Active fansThe 3D Active technology provides a semi-passive cooling scheme, the fans remain off when the load on the GPU is low, including in games that are not demanding on hardware resources.

I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

If you do not pay attention to the whistle of the throttles, it is quite a great purchase option. I just never encountered this before this video card. Do not install with low-quality PSU

Pros
  • Fast, the drivers have become flawless. The system was defined correctly. Not buggy. It looks new, not mining. The fans run almost silently at full load.
Cons
  • Nasty throttle whistle during game play. Some games louder, some quieter. Tips for setting the V-sync mode did not help. The replacement of the PSU from 700 watts to 850 helped. The whistle became against the background of an error, when the fan speed was set, it was absolutely inaudible.

I didn³'t expect the quality to be this good.

I bought directly from , there was incorrect information at first about the warranty period, which instead of 36 months was announced as 12 months, but with support they quickly settled this incorrectness, the warranty period, as stated on the box, on the manufacturer's website and in your personal account when you register video card is correct.

Pros
  • The best video card for the money, with a promising amount of video memory, unlike the 3070ti for the same price, which is hotter, consumes more electricity and is 10-15 frames weaker, depending on the situation. For performance 5 - good cooling, chokes, if they crack, are not too loud, eat food adequately, metal backplate, weighs normally, but not too heavy

The best thing for the money, Im glad I chose this option.

Took for fhd together with 5800x. Contra norms finally went, grass, wire garbage, fsaa, msaa, everything is ultra, sometimes it drops to 500fps) I don’t really force the system so far, the percentage is heating up while it’s on the old cooler. I chose for a long time, between the 3070ti palette and this one, I even bought both at the same time (there were discounts, gig 45k, 3070ti - 47). I took 6800 and do not regret it yet.

Pros
  • Cold, climbed into the body.
Cons
  • so far everything is ok, the only problems with the Soviets were, with the game profiles in terms of color (they were accepted on the main profile)

I was surprised by the quality for this price.

Very bouncy card, price/performance is really amazing. Tracing is more for show here. And so, with a normal processor (at least the level of i5 12400F), all games will go to the maximum at 1920, 2560 and even 3840, but in 4K fps, of course, it will not be high everywhere. Well, 16GB . the next 5-7 years, in theory, everything should go on normal settings (in any case, in full SD).

Pros
  • Price for a pleasant 16Gb, performance, relatively compact (despite the fact that the cooling is decent)
Cons
  • In fact, no ray tracing.

I like the product very much, fully consistent with my expectations.

While the experience of use is small, it is difficult to draw conclusions. The increase after the RTX 2060 is very noticeable at 2K resolution. Rays in games do not particularly care. I thought for a long time whether to take Nvidia or AMD. Most of the problems that are usually written about the products of the Reds simply did not see while using the card. In principle, I am not a supporter of any of the companies, I do not call anyone for anything, I am satisfied with the experience of using…

Pros
  • The amount of memory is not very large. The price at the time of purchase is about the same as the RTX 3070. Good performance, low temperatures. Drivers do not crash, games do not crash. Chokes don't whistle either, probably because of the 850 watt block.
Cons
  • Can't select
