AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT Graphics Cards Custom Models From AIBs Could Be Greenlit Soon – RX 6000 Series Rumored To Have Limited Stock at Launch-February 2024-www.yitit.com

AMD is said to be in talks with its AIB partners on allowing Radeon RX 6900 XT custom graphics cards. In addition to the Radeon RX 6900 XT, rumors are starting to pop up which indicate that AMD's Radeon RX 6000 series would launch with limited stock quantities which will make it a bit hard for consumers to get one early on.

AMD & AIB Partners In Talks To Allow Radeon RX 6900 XT Custom Graphics Cards

The first report comes from HardwareLuxx who have stated that AMD is in early talks with its AIBs to allow custom Radeon RX 6900 XT graphics cards for the consumer segment. The RX 6900 XT is the flagship "Big Navi" GPU offering and will be the fastest of the three graphics cards based on the Navi 21 GPU. However, during the announcement, AMD only announced custom model availability for the Radeon RX 6800 and Radeon RX 6800 XT graphics cards.

The Radeon RX 6900 XT was excluded in terms of custom model availability by AMD during the unveil but that may change as AIBs and AMD are in talks to greenlight non-reference models for the flagship graphics card. The AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT launches on 8th of December which is a few weeks after the Radeon RX 6800 and Radeon RX 6800 XT graphics cards. This is mostly to allow enough quantities for the Big Navi "Navi 21 XTX" GPU to be made to supply a handful of gaming enthusiasts on launch.

It will be interesting if AIBs can succeed in making AMD allow Radeon RX 6900 XT custom models. There's little to no effort required to produce a Radeon RX 6900 XT custom variant as it has specs and power numbers similar to the Radeon RX 6800 XT, as reports Videocardz. We have also seen some impressive custom designs so far from ASUS and MSI for the Radeon RX 6800 series and we hope that we get even better looking designs for the Radeon RX 6900 XT once AMD allows them.

With that said, water cooling enthusiasts will be offered full coverage water blocks from top tier brands such as EKWB. EKWB has already announced its next-generation cooling solutions for the AMD Radeon RX 6000 series graphics cards and Ryzen 5000 Desktop CPUs.
