Sapphire Radeon RX 7900 GRE NITRO+ graphics card pictures

Sapphire, one of the most integral collaborators of AMD’s graphics card division, is poised to introduce the new Radeon RX 7900 GRE NITRO+, colloquially referred to as the Super Platinum Edition. Recently, this anticipated graphics card has been unveiled by Twitter user @wxnod, seemingly adhering to the design of its progenitor series.

The Radeon RX 7900 GRE NITRO+ appears to employ the thermal design of the Radeon RX 7900 XTX/XT NITRO+, although a Lite version cannot be entirely discounted. Two distinguishing elements set these variants apart: firstly, the vivacious RGB light strip at the top has been reduced from two to one, and secondly, the VC vacuum cavity uniform heating plate has been replaced with an all-copper base. Approximately two months ago, Sapphire launched the Radeon RX 7900 XT 20G D6 Super Platinum OC L graphics card, which simplified its heat dissipation design.

The suffix ‘GRE’ of the Radeon RX 7900 might denote the ‘Golden Rabbit Edition’, an appellation reminiscent of the 2020 RX 590 GME’s ‘Golden Mouse Edition’. Current information suggests the Radeon RX 7900 GRE might be an exclusive product for the mainland Chinese market, with its international availability yet to be ascertained. Its overall specifications appear to be somewhat less impressive than the RX 7900 XT, with rumors suggesting it utilizes a downscaled Navi 31. The specifications allegedly include 80 computing units, 5120 stream processors, 16GB of GDDR6 VRAM, a 256-bit memory bus width, and a requirement of two 8-pin external power connectors.

Recent buzz suggests that the Radeon RX 7800 and Radeon RX 7700 are scheduled to debut at the 2023 Cologne International Games Exhibition (August 23 to 27, 2023), with AMD potentially releasing these new products in September to supplement the current mid-to-high-end product line, thereby replacing the position of the existing Radeon RX 6800/6900 series graphics cards. The sudden emergence of the Radeon RX 7900 GRE is a surprising development for many.
