The main differences between both cards are the LED illuminated Radeon RX 6600 XT logo on the side, a different backplate (with a different logo), and the cooler shroud. The QICK319’s front plate features a ‘cheese grater’ design, whereas the MERC319’s plate is smooth.
@@IrnMaiden304 In my experience if you have your fan curve set, I was able to keep mine at 70c oc to 2500 and undervolted with memory playing max settings for most titles including witcher 3 and zero dawn horizon. SWFT and MERC you pay for cooling and better chips.
@@patayder566On average 12% difference in real life gaming benchmarks between the rx 6800 and rx 6800 xt, that's not much of a difference at all, don't lie to the guy
Yep, picked up the QICK319 instead of the MERC after I did some research, the difference? The QICK has a hard plastic mold, where as the MERC has a metal one. Otherwise, benchmarks are nearly identical. Sorry, Im not paying an extra 500 bucks for some metal lol. Have had my QICK319 for about a month now and she runs like a BEAST, every game in my library is easily playable at Ultra, however I stick with High and undervolt it, I maintain temps of sub 72 at full load.
Parece ser que el cool while solo afecta a la merc319 core de xfx.. el modelo black gaming que no tenía ese problema.. es muy posible que este problema sea utilizar fuentes de mala calidad o escasa potencia.. puede ser el problema de raíz para el cool while. para todas las rx6800xt recomiendan a partir de 750w atx/TX ..yo tengo una NOX URANO 850w VX estoy pensando que modelo de AMD RX6800XT comprar... ?? espero aclarar bien todas estas dudas.. Buen video saludos
creo que el coil whine en tarjetas XFX es algo común (no debería pasar pero es parte de, lamentablemente). Un amigo con su RX470 XFX tuvo algo de coil whine, la mia justo ahora una Rx 580 tiene algo de coil whine también. Mi fuente de poder es una EVGA 600W 80+ Gold y la verdad dudo en extremo que sea por PSU, yo le voy a la tarjeta grafica y las vibraciones que tiene al momento de usarse y calentarse.
El coil whine es la tarjeta, no por la fuente, ya he tenido 2 xfx y prefiero desarmarlas porque tienen mucho adorno de plástico, se ve fea pero funciona mejor.
@@AlexPCTech Sorry. You are right, the specs of this MERC 319 and this QICK 319 seem to be equal. I unintentionally mixed up the QICK with another card from XFX when comparing. But it is not as simple as "MERC" vs. "QICK". There is also "Black", "Ultra" and "Core" to be considered when choosing XFX for an AMD RX 6000 card. Pretty weird naming schemes from XFX, though.
@@stbufraba yes, im also baffled at their naming conventions and on which periodic table they got their schemes from, I was also confused at first to be honest, Thank you for your diligence regarding this matter, without the community to validate what reviewers are saying, reviews wouldn't be very much reliable so I thank you for speaking out.
They have slightly different cooling designs based in the model. The actual card is exactly the same with a very slight overclock on the Merc and quik models. I would get the swft for the 3 fan cooling. Merc is only worth it if you want led lights on your GPU to show off through a tempered glass case.
HI I HAVE A QUESTION IM GOING TO BUY THE RX 6750XT AND I DONT KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE QICK AND THE MERC VERSION CUZ MERC IS 419 DOLLAR AND QICK IS 389 DOLLAR WHY IS THAT ????
Caution: there is uge difference regarding game and boost clock according to XFX themselves: 1815/2105 MHz on XFX Speedster QICK 319 AMD Radeon™ RX 6800 BLACK Gaming (RX-68XLALBD9) vs. 1980/2190 Mhz for XFX Speedster MERC 319 AMD Radeon™ RX 6800 BLACK Gaming (RX-68XLATBD9)). Get your facts straight, man!
Thank you for the information!. The primary balance bios is the same such as: base clock, and game clock, the one you are referring to is 'UP TO', but can you get it stable up to that point? Because the primary clock settings are basically the same. I also wonder what would be the real world difference between them to be honest. In the near future I really want to test that out.
@Alex PC Tech Sorry Alex, I unintentionally mixed up the specs of QUICK 319 BLACK with the "reference card" model RX-67TMYDFD8 from XFX. You are right, the specs of MERC 319 BLACK and Qick 319 BLACK are indeed equal. The naming scheme of XFX, however, is pretty weird.
4 months without radeon 7, they have promised me a 6800 and now they can't. xfx offers me 5700xt or refund. this is a mockery and insult of the consumer who else with that problem?
Thanks for the Video nobody else has done this comparison.
Perfect this is what I was looking for THX for the vid.

uhhh 6600xt? I thought this video was reviewing the 6800.
Which is more cooler?
@@patayder566 he is lazy, just copy/paste from another articles
The one backplate looks plastic? Is that true?
nah its not plastic, but i barley remember since it has been almost 2 years since i posted :)@@NookieCrusher
What about the swft 6800 ?
Same - I have it.
What about the Core ? ...
its noticeably worse cooler- but for RX 6800 it is good enough because its a low power card.
For 6800xt and 6900xt, i recommend Qick/merc though.

@@user-wq9mw2xz3j
Swft 400$
Merc 450$
What's your opinion
Please help me, here in Indonesia we only haft swift variant of xfx rx 6800, is this swift varian good?
I just ordered the QIk, purely by accident I thought it was 6800XT but it wasn't, is there that much of a difference?
yeah

Thank you for the vid, man! Was wondering what the differences were between these two cards.
Why did you wait 7 minutes to actually compare them?!?!

Is the specs the same as the merc variant? Is the difference just the lack of LeD and exposed heat sinks?
Its exactly the same specs.
Specs are very different.
@@stbufraba Specs are the same.

The difference in the visual of the shroud is never mentioned but blindingly clear. 9:37 for example.
Just got mine delivered today
Does the quik version have rgb in the radeon logo?
keep up the good info you are doing a better job than 90% of big tech RUclipsrs
Thank you. I appreciate the comment and the boost
Подскажите какие термопрокладки идут на RX6800 swft?
ty ty
what about the swift one? is it the same with these two too?
Is it swft, qick and merc as their tier levels?
MERC 319 RX 6800 XT is core version or black version ?
What do they even mean with the merc, qick and swift????
and what are the numbers for tho??

QICK is like a stripped down version, the one with the better cooling and more overclocking headroom is the MERC Version.
same performance ? sorry i'm not english
Tiene RGB en el nombre de la placa?
does it require a GPU support bracket or is it fine without ?
its fine, it got an internal frame connected to the bracket to reduce sagging ... works for me ;-)
It sags a mere 3 degrees. I use a bracket because I like straight and for aethetics.
I want the lightbar on it

in video you have 6800 XT MERC not 6800 (none XT )
I have an option between both but which one should I take
Merc because of the cooling
deek kull...
Bought the qick At 550 then seen the merc for 470 and wandered what was the difference. Canceled the order and got the merc. Better looking for me
Yup. Anesthetics and you can push it better in terms of overclocking.
@@AlexPCTech thank you for information
WHERES THE FUCKING NOT XT MERC 6800
mukhang magandang pang mine ng BTC to ah, par Lex. ^^
Cant really say eh. Hard to build know kasi mejo mahal sya but yes hehehe
nice video
Thankkkss
4 months without radeon 7, they have promised me a 6800 and now they can't.
xfx offers me 5700xt or refund.
this is a mockery and insult of the consumer who else with that problem?
I woulda suggested an Upgrade free to a 6900xt or get me what u charged me for. Period.
