ASUS ROG Strix Radeon RX 6750 XT OC, ROG-STRIX-RX6750XT-O12G-GAMING, 12GB GDDR6, HDMI, 3x DP

The STRIX is an exquisite, possibly even overengineered graphics card for the Radeon RX 6750 XT product family. It provides additional features (dual BIOS, RGB/Fan connectors, etc.), cooling, and a factory tweak (for the OC variant), but that pricing, huh? The GPU stays cool and silent while gaming thanks to IC-powered fan technologies that keep the fans running precisely. You will have a WQHD product with excellent performance at temperatures and noise levels that are perfectly acceptable. Aesthetically, the card is beautiful, albeit perhaps a bit large. As said, this is a beautiful Full HD and Quad HD card with limited Ultra HD capabilities. The raytracing performance of this generation's RDNA2 GPUs is merely ordinary, while AMD is severely lacking in DLSS. All of these might be overlooked if the product was reasonably priced, but since the card will likely cost well over 600 USD/EUR, we cannot rationalize such a price point. This is not ASUS's fault; AMD has priced this series excessively. Nonetheless, the design is exquisite, with all the necessary boxes checked. The STRIX cards are always well-executed, and ASUS has done an excellent job of addressing the demands of the majority of customers and giving a well-rounded solution as a consequence.

Averaged over our whole game test suite at 1440p resolution, we find the ASUS STRIX 8% faster than the Radeon RX 6700 XT reference design. This increase is a bit smaller than expected, but enough to match the GeForce RTX 3070 and reduce the lead of the RTX 3070 Ti to only 6%. AMD's own Radeon RX 6800 non-XT is 11% faster now, and the RTX 3060 Ti is conclusively beat with a +11% difference. While these gains don't seem as big as many expected, they are still enough to achieve several important psychologically victories as NVIDIA can now no longer claim performance leadership and charge a premium for it. With these performance numbers, the RX 6750 XT is a fantastic choice for gaming at 1440p, or 1080p with a high-refresh-rate display. In many lighter titles, or when dialing down settings, you might even be able to run 4K with it. Another approach could be to use AMD's FSR and RSR upscaling technologies to render your games at slightly lower resolution and upscale them to 4K with a minimal loss in image quality.
