State-of-the-Art NITRO+ Features

The new Hybrid Fan Blade design is fitted on the SAPPHIRE NITRO+ AMD Radeon™ RX 6600 XT Graphics Card, which combines the key strengths of the traditional axial fan and blower fan. The quietness of a traditional axial fan design in conjunction with the strong air pressure of a blower fan design results in up to 5.5% better improvement in the downward air pressure through the fan while keeping a low noise level compared to previous generations. To enable up to 85% longer lifespan than regular sleeve bearing fans and maintain silence, the fans feature Dual Ball Bearings. The fan favourite SAPPHIRE Quick Connect Fan feature incorporated in the design is a quick solution with just one screw holding the fans securely in place to enable simple and easy cleaning to keep dust out of the graphics card.



The original NITRO+ Free Flow feature has been redeveloped into the modern Wave Fin Design. When the wind goes into the fin module, the Wave Fin Design reduces the friction in order to reduce the wind cut noise resulting in a lower decibel gaming experience. ARGB LED shroud design along with an intricate metal backplate where you can customize the different LED colours using the SAPPHIRE TriXX Software. Choose from various different modes including Fan Speed Mode, PCB Temperature Mode or the colourful rainbow mode, or turn off the LEDs to fully tailor the graphics card to suit any build.


Dual-X Cooling Technology Revamped

SAPPHIRE’s notable Dual-X Cooling Solution is engineered on the SAPPHIRE NITRO+ AMD Radeon™ RX 6700 XT Graphics Card whereby two large fans are arranged to spin in opposite directions to provide optimal airflow and heatsink coverage. Designed with a 7 Phase Digital Power Design, the NITRO+ AMD Radeon™ RX 6600 XT Graphics Card balances the distribution and thermal dissipation to harness the full power of overclocking AMD’s groundbreaking RDNA™ 2 gaming architecture. Intelligent Fan Control feature alongside the Precision Fan Control feature create optimal fan control for maximized performance intersecting with a silent vivid gaming experience.

SAPPHIRE NITRO+ AMD Radeon™ RX 6600 XT, 8GB, AMD RDNA™ 2 Gaming Architecture


Dual BIOS

Each card is designed with a Dual BIOS where you can choose between performance mode and silent mode to enhance your gaming experience. Using the TriXX Software BIOS Switch, gamers can effortlessly switch from performance mode to silent mode and back using our TriXX software for a quick and easy shift between the dual BIOS modes. 

The Secondary, or Silent setting reduces clock targets and raises target temperatures to allow for potentially quieter operation.

 

TriXX Boost

Enhance the performance of the NITRO+ and PULSE AMD Radeon™ RX 6600 XT Graphics Cards with our SAPPHIRE TriXX Software. On a variety of games, TriXX Boost increases your FPS by slightly decreasing resolution through the TriXX software that is then adjusted through Radeon™ Image Sharpening for an incredible boost. Choose from a customizable resolution scale or from additional custom resolutions based on user input for a much more fine-grained control over the quality vs. performance tradeoff.
