(TAKE NOTE RGB header is a 5v pin that you can control through any software , MSI , ASus aura , ASrock Sync ect , if you have the converter cable you can even use Corsair Icue(Check Amazon UAE they have it for cheap)

--- The cause & effect (confirmed its the GPU)
I don't know why but every 16 days on the dot , I need to reinstall and uninstall my amd drivers , otherwise I get grey screen in YouTube , so if you can live with uninstalling and reinstalling amd drivers , this is your GPU.
You can do 4K benchmarks for hours on end and stress test beyond your wildest dreams it will never crash , but YouTube after 16 days grey screens for days.

Take note, AMD released a new driver, you can see they did mention they addressed the black screen issue while playing certain video's.
AMD Software Adrenalin 23.10.1 WHQL Released (This driver is the one that bans you in Counter strike 2 , but I got a copy of it)

Last guy had it consistently black screen with the 6900xt in call of duty.

My specs and last seller specs are as follows.
MSI B550 Mag
5600x
16 GIg DDR4 (I had higher frequency he had lower)
Nvme Drive

** Last seller also had the same issue so if you want a sick looking secondary display card get it while its hot, take note if you buy you will also be accepting the black screens and all other random issues hence the discounted price + a sick back plate :)


TLDR
It black screens, it hangs, it has a sick RGB backplate and only a GT710 is cheaper, and you are willing to accept it and try and it fix on your own accord.

FYI

May I ask why haven't you or the previous seller tried to send it to be fixed ??? Or have you ? And it was returned?
 
Card is currently on hold @Toy Machine

No card was never sent in to be fixed, and XFX USA is also full of rubbish with how the warranty only applies to US citizens.

So curious to see if @Toy Machine can fix the card hopefully, he can and score a lekker Gpu.
