PowerColor Readying Spectral White Radeon RX 9060 XT Hellhound & Reaper SKUs

Curiously, the two Reaper models seem to differ in terms of clock speeds. As noted by VideoCardz, this specification disparity reflects a recently reported difference between Yeston’s Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB and 8 GB GAEA SKUs. Almost akin to patterns exhibited by the Chinese AIB’s baseline MSRP conformant products, the PowerColor Reaper 16 GB card seems to boast greater game and boost clock digits when compared to its 8 GB sibling: +90 MHz and 100 MHz (respectively). At first, Yeston’s GAEA spec charts were believed to contain placeholder info or anomalous data. The appearances of comparable PowerColor examples indicate an advantageous position for certain 16 GB GDDR 6 VRAM-equipped models.
Pleasingly, PowerColor’s Spectral White aesthetic is deployed across the Hellhound’s PCB, aluminium fin-stack heatsink, and I/O shield. At the time of writing, a lone 16 GB model is listed on the manufacturer’s global and Chinese catalogs.The Reaper Spectral White series sports customary pale external pieces, but this treatment does not affect its PCB or heatsink.Given wallet-friendly price tags—usually adhering to AMD guidelines—potential buyers are not looking at extravagantly recolored components, thanks to “cost saving” methodologies.
