ASUS has announced the local availability of the AMD Radeon RX 9070 series, which is now available in two flavors for two GPUs launched: TUF Gaming and PRIME series.
ASUS Radeon RX 9070 Series
First off, the TUF Gaming cards feature three 11-blade axial fans, 0dB fan mode, and an aluminum backplate with wide vents for improved heat dissipation; as usual, these models also come with dual BIOS switch for users to choose between performance and quiet fan modes. Both models also feature a phase-change thermal pad for improved heat transfer to keep the internals cool.
The new addition for ASUS’s Radeon lineup is the PRIME series, which offer a relatively compact 2.5-slot design with a triple-fan cooling system. ASUS says these models use a smaller fan hub to extend blade length, and a barrier ring to increase air pressure; like the TUF Gaming series, these models include phase-change thermal pads, dual-ball fan bearings, and 0dB mode for silent operation under light workloads.
It’s worth noting that regardless of which GPU you’ll be getting from both variants, the XT and non-XT’s card dimensions are identical. For pricing, the TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 XT OC Edition is priced at RM4,299, while the PRIME Radeon RX 9070 XT OC Edition is available for RM3,799. The TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 OC Edition is priced at RM3,599, and the PRIME Radeon RX 9070 OC Edition is available for RM3,299.
