Recently, some intriguing details about ASRock’s Radeon RX 9070 series GPUs have surfaced online, showcasing the forthcoming Steel Legend and Taichi models.
ASRock’s Custom RX 9070 GPU Models Unveiled Online Ahead of Official Launch: A Sneak Peek Into Sleek Designs
It looks like ASRock is gearing up for the next wave of AMD’s RDNA 4 GPUs with style, particularly focusing on the Radeon RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT. Although images from other collaborative brands are still awaited, ASRock’s GPUs have been spotted online, showcasing three distinct series: Steel Legend, Taichi, and Challenger. Starting with the Taichi series, this model appears to be ASRock’s flagship, featuring an elegant and robust triple-fan design with a substantial heatsink, hence its three-slot architecture.
The standout feature of ASRock’s Taichi variant is its 12V-2×6 power connector. Not all models will include this feature, as AMD has allowed partners the flexibility to opt-out depending on power needs. With the 12V-2×6 connector capable of supporting up to 600W of power, the Taichi model is certainly geared for high performance and overclocking potential.
Moving on to the Steel Legend variant, this is expected to be ASRock’s more mid-range offering, available in sophisticated white and silver designs. This model sports a 2.5-slot triple-fan layout but uses a different power setup: the standard 2x 8-pin connector, which appears to be the norm in most of AMD’s partner models except for higher-end models like the Taichi series.
If you’re wondering when these sleek new models will hit the shelves, the buzz is that we can anticipate their market debut as soon as next week, coinciding with AMD’s rumored pre-orders for the RX 9070 series GPUs.
