ASRock’s latest lineup for the Radeon RX 9070 series GPUs has hit the web, unveiling some intriguing custom models like the Steel Legend and Taichi.
Before the official release, the custom RX 9070 series from ASRock has already made an online appearance, showcasing some stylish and elegant SKUs. It seems ASRock has been gearing up for a new batch of AMD’s RDNA 4 GPUs, specifically highlighting the Radeon RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT variants. While we’re still waiting on official images from other partners, ASRock has already shown off three distinct models: Steel Legend, Taichi, and Challenger. Let’s kick things off with the Taichi series, which appears to be ASRock’s top-tier offering. This model boasts a sleek triple-fan setup paired with a robust heatsink, justifying its three-slot card design.
What’s particularly notable about the Taichi version is its inclusion of a 12V-2×6 power connector. It’s worth mentioning that not all models will incorporate this feature, as AMD allows partners to choose based on each model’s power needs. The 12V-2×6 connector supports up to 600W of power delivery, ensuring that the Taichi model is well prepared for enhanced specs and overclocking prowess.
Moving on to the Steel Legend variant, this offering seems to cater to the mid-range market, showcasing both white and silver color options. This variant sticks with a 2.5-slot triple fan design, opting for a 2x 8-pin power connector instead of the 12V-2×6. This configuration aligns with AMD’s typical offerings for its partner models, saving the higher power connectors for premium models like the Taichi series.
As for when these impressive GPUs will become available, it would be reasonable to expect their launch next week. That’s when AMD is rumored to begin pre-orders for the RX 9070 series, giving gamers an exciting new option to consider.
