Lenovo Radeon RX 6800 XT and RX 6900 XT LEGION Edition Graphics Cards Spotted

Lenovo are really ramping up its gaming range of products this year! I wonder how they’ll perform.

Taken from TPU … Lenovo and AMD seem to be developing an exclusive partnership with client/workstation products. Following exclusivity for Lenovo to sell workstations powered by the Ryzen Threadripper PRO processors, the two appear to be collaborating on graphics cards. Pictures surfaced on Chinese social media of the new Lenovo Radeon RX 6800 XT and RX 6900 XT LEGION Edition graphics cards. At this point it’s unclear whether Lenovo designed these cards, or if the designers of AMD’s reference MBA (made by AMD) graphics cards lent a hand.

 

Looking at the red-illuminated “R” cornerstone design element, the possibility of the card being designed and made by the same OEM as reference-design MBA cards, cannot be ruled out. Use of the “R” cornerstone dates back to the Radeon RX Vega series. The typeface of the “R” has since been updated to match with the latest Radeon logo. Elsewhere across the card, we see a large “Radeon RX 6×00 XT” logo along the top of the card, which is RGB illuminated. The butch triple-slot card appears to be slightly larger than the RX 6800 XT / RX 6900 XT reference-design, pulling power from a pair of 8-pin PCIe power connectors. Along the metal back-plate we see a large, illuminated logo of LEGION, Lenovo’s gaming PC marquee. Below are screengrabs from the animation, watch the animated GIF in the source link below. At this point we don’t know if this card is China-exclusive, and exactly how it’s marketed, whether it’s sold standalone like any AIB retail card, or whether it’s pre-installed on LEGION PCs, such as the 2021 LEGION 7000P desktops.
