AMD's RX 7600 reference design card seems to have a design fault that may affect some users, specifically preventing them from fully inserting the required 8-pin auxiliary power delivery connector. We didn't encounter issues running the card with our test systems and PSUs, but as noted by TechPowerUp, some 6+2-pin connectors may not fit due to the surrounding shroud.
If you're looking to buy a "Made By AMD" (MBA) Radeon RX 7600 reference card, you should first confirm that your PSU connectors will fit. Worst-case, you could purchase an 8-pin extension cable, but those could ruin the aesthetics of your build. Don't mess up the chi, man!
The root cause is a lack of clearance around the 8-pin connector on the card, with a small cut-out that may not accommodate some 6+2 pin connectors that come standard with most power supplies. The specific issue is the locking bump for those extra two pins, which could get blocked by the backplate, preventing full power connector insertion.
