ASUS TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 XT OC Edition and TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 OC Edition
AMD Radeon RX 9070 and 9070 XT Graphics Cards Are Announced by ASUS
TUF Gaming and Prime’s new RDNA 4 generation Radeon cards have 16GB of VRAM, HYPR-RX, and a super resolution mode that uses machine learning.
With the new RDNA 4 architecture, 16GB of VRAM, the HYPR-RX feature set, and a super resolution mode that uses machine learning, ASUS today unveiled the AMD Radeon RX 9070 and 9070 XT graphics cards for the TUF Gaming and Prime families. For many years to come, these models will provide players with top-notch gaming experiences.
With AMD’s latest AI-powered capabilities, such as enhanced ray tracing, users will experience next-level immersion while gaming at lightning-fast speeds with next-generation HYPR-RX technology. Selected FidelityFX Super Resolution 3.1 games can use the new machine-learning based super resolution mode, which offers an amazing mix between smooth frame rates and detailed images. Additionally, DisplayPort 2.1 outputs support high-end refresh rates and provide consumers a tonne of capacity to go big on resolution.
TUF Gaming is in the forefront
The TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 XT OC Edition and TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 OC Edition are the result of ASUS’s demonstrated ability to control GPU temperature while maintaining low noise levels.
Through a huge fin array that is optimised for airflow, a steady stream of cooling air is maintained by three eleven-blade Axial-tech fans. These fans can shut down entirely for silent operation under light workloads with 0dB technology. Additionally, the aluminium backplate’s broad vents provide heat with an easy way to escape into the chassis’s primary airflow channel.
While some gamers insist on silent operation, others want to fine-tune their graphics cards for optimal performance. Without installing extra software, users can select between quiet and performance modes using a physical Dual BIOS switch. Users can download the free ASUS GPU Tweak III program for extra performance-tuning options, simple hardware monitoring, and fine-grained control over fan behaviour.
The thermal paste that is typically used to move heat from the GPU to the cooling system is replaced in this series of graphics cards by ASUS. Rather, a phase-change GPU thermal pad is a characteristic of the TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070. When heated, the electrically non-conductive pad liquefies from its solid state. Bridging the tiny spaces between the GPU and thermal moduleimproves heat dissipation and thermal conductivity, guaranteeing peak performance even under prolonged, demanding GPU workloads.
Phase-change thermal pads also have a remarkable lifespan. Even for graphics cards that frequently see high workloads, they much outlast conventional pastes.
One of the many components of the TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 that are intended to provide consumers with dependable performance over an extended period of time is the phase-change GPU thermal pad. For structural strength, ASUS encases these cards in a metal exoskeleton; the threat of graphics card sag may be virtually eliminated with a little additional support in the form of a GPU holder.
Dual-ball fan bearings may spin fans twice as long as standard versions. ASUS uses military-grade parts for reliable power delivery and a long lifespan and a PCB coating to prevent dust, moisture, and debris short circuits. The ASUS Auto-Extreme manufacturing method ensures that cards will run games for years to come, living true to the TUF name.
TUF Gaming graphics cards come in a subtle design that blends in well with almost every component available, which is something that many PC builders adore. ASUS has maintained the traditional ruggedised design of the TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070. Aura Sync allows users to synchronise the card’s lighting with the rest of their compatible devices, and an illuminated TUF Gaming emblem on the card’s corner adds a personal touch.
In a 2.5-slot configuration, Prime graphics maintain their coolness
ASUS Prime series are an excellent choice for anyone seeking reliable PC performance at an affordable price. This is true not just for Prime motherboards, PC cases, power supplies, and AIO coolers, but also for Prime graphics cards.
In a 2.5-slot architecture, the Prime Radeon RX 9070 OC Edition and Prime Radeon RX 9070 XT OC Edition combine a triple-fan cooling technology. These cards can be the answer for you if you require exceptional gaming performance in a chassis with limited space. ASUS modified the Axial-tech fans to ensure that they have superior cooling capabilities that work with a variety of small cases. The fans are encircled by a barrier ring that raises the downward air pressure, and the fan hub is smaller, allowing for longer fan blades.
There are several similarities between the TUF models and the Prime versions of these cards. For optimum heat transfer and long-term dependability, they have phase-change GPU thermal pads, for instance. Additionally, dual-ball fan bearings extend the airflow compared to traditional designs, and the ASUS Auto-Extreme production process provides accuracy and reliability that have been demonstrated. Additionally, customers will continue to benefit from a dual BIOS switch, 0dB technology, and the structural stability of an aluminium protective backplate.
Options for dependable, trustworthy electricity sources
It is a surefire way to fail when a fresh graphics card is paired with an unstable power source. A consumer can purchase some piece of mind with a next-generation upgrade if their PSU is getting old.
ASUS provides a large selection of alternatives throughout the ROG, TUF Gaming, and Prime product families to ensure that customers may choose a power supply with the functionality, wattage, and style that they require.
ASUS Prime Radeon RX 9070 XT OC Edition 16GB GDDR6
With the Prime Radeon RX 9070 XT graphics card, you can enjoy Primal performance with its compact 2.5-slot design, phase-change GPU thermal pad, and triple-fan arrangement for optimal cooling.
Cooling
2.5-slot layout
With its 2.5 slot design and thoughtfully placed shroud, heatsink, and heat pipe architecture, the Prime Radeon RX 9070 XT allows the three Axial-tech fans to take advantage of chassis side-panel ventilation and offer optimal thermal efficiency.
Axial-tech Improvements
Three well-known Axial-tech fans have a barrier ring to boost downward air pressure for lower temperatures, less noise, and better performance, and a smaller hub that allows for longer blades.
0dB Technology
When GPU temperatures fall below 55°C, all three fans stop, allowing you to play less taxing games or work on light tasks in relative peace. When temperatures rise beyond 60°C, fans restart, creating a speed curve that strikes a balance between acoustics and performance for work or play.
Two Ball Fan Bearings
Each type of bearing has advantages and disadvantages of its own. When compared to sleeve bearing designs, dual-ball bearings are twice as durable.
Vented Backplate
Large backplate vents efficiently dissipate heat, keeping the GPU cool during intense tasks. Extra airflow prevents overheating and thermal throttling, boosting performance, longevity, and stability.
Design of MaxContact
Compared to conventional designs, MaxContact, a unique ASUS manufacturing technique, efficiently increases the surface area of the heat spreader that rests on top of the GPU by 5%. Together with a large array of heatsinks and strong Axial-tech fans, this raises temperatures by up to 2°C.
GPU Thermal Pad with Phase Change
A high-quality phase-change GPU thermal pad ensures excellent performance and endurance for graphics cards under intense loads by melting to efficiently fill the gaps between the GPU and the thermal module. This offers greater thermal conductivity and enhanced heat dissipation.
Engineering
Extreme Auto-Technology
ASUS Auto-Extreme technology, an automated manufacturing process that raises the bar for the industry by enabling all soldering to be done in a single pass, lessens thermal strain on components and eliminates the need for harsh cleaning agents, which reduces manufacturing power consumption, has a smaller environmental impact, and produces a more dependable product overall.
