MSI Radeon RX 6950 XT, RX 6750 XT, RX 6650 XT Gaming X Thermals

No graphics card review is complete without evaluating its temperatures and thermal load. The MSI Gaming X graphics cards come with a triple (Tri-Frozr) or dual (Twin-Frozr) fan cooler with 0db fan technology, a massive heatsink that is composed of several aluminum fins and heat pipes, and an extended backplate that covers the entire PCB.
