ASRock's Radeon RX 9070 series GPUs have surfaced online, revealing the upcoming Steel Legend, and Taichi custom models.
ASRock's Custom RX 9070 Series GPU Models Gets Pictured Online Prior To Official Launch; Revealing Elegant SKUs
Well, it seems like ASRock has prepped for a decent range of AMD's RDNA 4 GPUs, particularly the Radeon RX 9070 and the RX 9070 XT. While we have yet to see "official" images from other AIB partners, ASRock's GPUs have been pictured online, revealing three different lineups: Steel Legend, Taichi, and Challenger models. Starting with the Taichi series, it seems like the model will be the flagship offering from ASRock, coming in with an elegant triple-fan design along with a beefy heatsink, which is why it is a three-slot card.
The more interesting fact about ASRock's Taichi variant is the presence of a 12V-2x6 power connector, and not all models will feature this standard, as AMD has left out this option for AIB partners, depending upon the power requirements of a particular model. The 12V-2x6 power connector is said to support up to 600W of power delivery, which certainly means that the Taichi model will be well-equipped in terms of specifications and overclocking capabilities.
Next up is the Steel Legend variant, which is said to be a mid-range offering by ASRock, coming in with both white and sliver color schemes. This particular variant apparently comes in a 2.5-slot triple fan design. However, this model won't feature the 12V-2x6 connector, rather a 2x 8-pin standard, which is said to be the standard offering in AMD's AIB models, except for a few higher end ones, like the Taichi series.
In terms of when to expect these models to drop into the markets, a safe bet would likely be around the next week, since that's when AMD is rumored to start pre-orders of its RX 9070 series GPUs.
