Possible AMD RX 7900 XTX engineering sample with red PCB surfaces — prototype came with no backplate & custom VBIOS but matches RX 7900 GRE specs

RX 7900 XTX engineering sample.

It's always interesting to revisit an engineering sample for an older GPU as it allows us to analyze it with the benefit of hindsight. We've come across a card that appears to be an early prototype for AMD's RX 7900 XTX, which was purchased by Tiktoker Shav Tech on the secondhand market. The buyer thought they were ordering a regular 7900 XTX, but they got something else that's recognized as such in software but clearly differs at the hardware level.
