Sapphire teases their RX 6000 series of TOXIC GPUs

Sapphire has started to tease their latest graphics card, and it is rumoured to be a new TOXIC series GPU, a new flagship for the company’s Radeon RX 6000 series product line. 

Sapphire has not released a high-end TOXIC series graphics card since the Radeon R9 390X TOXIC, which launched in 2016. This will make Sapphire’s new TOXIC graphics card the first TOXIC GPU in half a decade, highlighting the performance leap that’s offered by AMD’s Radeon RX 6000 series. 

The TOXIC brand is for Sapphire’s top tier products, and it hasn’t been seen as part of AMD’s Radeon R9 Fury series, RX Vega series, or Radeon RX 5000 series products. This graphics cards should sit above Sapphire’s RX 6000 Nitro series of products with Sapphire’s teaser including a power configuration that includes 8+8+6-pin PCIe power configuration. 

Based on Sapphire’s teaser, their planned RX 6000 series Nitro GPU will be capable of handling up to 450 watts of power, which is 50% more than AMD’s reference RX 6800 XT/RX 6900 XT GPUs.
