ASUS today announced four new AMD Radeon^™ RX 9060 XT graphics cards across the TUF Gaming, Prime and ASUS Dual families. Featuring AMD RDNA^™ 4 architecture and FSR 4 support, these cards offer the latest FidelityFX^™ Super Resolution upscaling from AMD, granting them incredible high-resolution visuals and impressive system performance. Plus, users get the output options they need to enjoy high-res games at jaw-dropping framerates―because all ASUS Radeon RX 9060 XT graphics cards pack DisplayPort^™ 2.1a technology, which provides the bandwidth necessary to allow a PC’s performance to accurately display on a monitor. All four ASUS Radeon RX 9060 XT graphics cards come with two DisplayPort 2.1a ports and one HDMI^® 2.1b port.

ASUS Radeon RX 9060 XT graphics cards are only 2.5 slots wide. They are also relatively short, not exceeding 304mm in length, meaning they are ready to power a small form factor PC. So for users who have a smaller machine that they are looking to transform into a capable gaming rig, any of these cards can fit the bill.

ASUS Dual Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB GDDR6

Each graphics card also packs the latest ASUS hardware, including dual-ball fan bearings that last up to twice as long as conventional designs. Users also get Axial-tech fans that use long blades to push more air through the card, giving them cooler temperatures, less noise and better performance. Under light workloads, the fans shut off completely for silent computing.

These cards also feature a Dual BIOS switch. If a user needs their rig hard-locked for maximum gaming power or geared toward quiet operation, a flick of this switch and a quick PC restart will have their machine running the way they want.

TUF Gaming packs the power and resilience to handle all the favorites

With a very respectable 16GB of VRAM, the TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB OC Edition graphics card is ready to produce gorgeous high-res visuals. Users will have the video memory they need to enjoy the games of today.
