XFX Unveils Radeon RX 7600 Speedster QICK 308 and SWFT 210 Graphics Cards
XFX started selling its Radeon RX 7600 series graphics cards, which consist of the affordable RX 7600 Speedster SWFT 210, and the premium RX 7600 Speedster QICK 308. The SWFT 210 is priced at the AMD MSRP for the RX 7600, of USD $269. The QICK 308 is priced at a $20-40 premium, although it has been spotted on e-tailers at the MSRP.

The SWFT 210 uses a simpler aluminium fin-stack cooler that uses a pair of 100 mm fans (hence the name 210, denoting 2x 100 mm fans). The card sticks to AMD-reference clock speeds of 2250 MHz Game clocks, and 2655 MHz boost. The larger QICK 308, on the other hand, uses a triple-slot, triple fan cooling solution, with a more elaborate multiple fin-stack heatsink, and three 80 mm fans (hence 308). This card comes with a factory-overclock. While the Game clock is untouched at 2250 MHz, the boost frequency is dialed up to 2755 MHz. This card uses the same 1x 8-pin PCIe power input configuration as its sibling.
