XFX plans to release four different Radeon RX 9060 XT cards under its Swift OC brand. The company will make both black and white versions with either 8 GB or 16 GB of memory. All cards use dual fans and can reach speeds up to 3320 MHz. Each model runs at the same base speed of 2780 MHz during games. The cards will use more power than standard versions.

Industry sources say these cards will draw between 170 and 180 watts of power. AMD set the reference power at 150 watts but allows up to 182 watts maximum. XFX chose higher power settings to maintain faster speeds for longer periods. The extra power means computers need better cooling and airflow. Review samples have started reaching tech websites for testing.

The Swift OC cooler design first appeared during the RDNA 4 launch earlier this year. XFX updated the heatsink layout and changed fan settings to handle sustained high speeds. Other companies like ASRock and Sapphire also target the same 3320 MHz speed limit. All four XFX models share identical performance targets despite different memory amounts and colors. Real gaming performance results will become available as reviews publish.
