ASUS Launches Radeon RX 9070 XT & RX 9070 TUF Gaming Graphics Cards with Up to Triple 8-Pin Power Connectors

ASUS has officially introduced its highly anticipated next-generation RDNA 4-based Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 16 GB GPUs, offered in both TUF Gaming and Prime variations.

ASUS Launches TUF Gaming and Prime Editions of Radeon RX 9070 XT & RX 9070 16 GB Graphics Cards

Press Release: With the impressive performance of CPUs like the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D making waves in the gaming community, many enthusiasts are contemplating building state-of-the-art gaming PCs in 2025. To fuel such aspirations, ASUS is proudly expanding its lineup of AMD-powered graphics cards with the new Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 from the TUF Gaming and Prime series.

Advanced Features for Enhanced Gaming

Equipped with the revolutionary RDNA 4 architecture and a substantial 16GB of VRAM, these GPUs are engineered to deliver exceptional gaming experiences that will last for years. The integration of HYPR-RX technology allows for ultra-responsive gameplay, complemented by AMD’s latest AI-driven enhancements that improve ray tracing performance for greater immersion.

This generation introduces an innovative machine-learning super-resolution feature that enhances select FSR 3.1 games, striking a balance between stunning visuals and smooth frame rates. Additionally, with DisplayPort 2.1 outputs, users can take advantage of massive bandwidth to achieve impressive resolutions and high refresh rates.

TUF Gaming: Leading the Way in Cooling and Performance

ASUS’s commitment to efficient cooling systems has been showcased in the TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 XT OC Edition and Radeon RX 9070 OC Edition. These graphics cards utilize a robust cooling solution featuring a trio of eleven-blade Axial-tech fans, ensuring optimal airflow across a high-performance fin array.

With the 0dB technology, these fans can shut down entirely during light workloads, promoting silent operation. The aluminum backplate is designed with generous vents, allowing heat to dissipate effectively into the main airflow channel of your PC chassis.

For those who desire control over performance settings, a physical Dual BIOS switch facilitates toggling between performance and quiet modes, removing the need for additional software. Enhancing your experience further, our free GPU Tweak III software provides robust tools for performance monitoring and fan management.

This generation’s standout innovation includes the use of phase-change GPU thermal pads instead of traditional thermal paste, which significantly enhances thermal conductivity. These pads remain solid at room temperature but transition to a liquid state under heat, filling microscopic gaps to ensure effective heat dissipation during intense workloads.

In addition to superior performance, the phase-change thermal pads promise longevity, outlasting conventional options even in demanding environments. While eventual maintenance is likely, users can rest assured that these cards are built to last.

The TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 boast a metal exoskeleton for increased durability, and compatibility with a GPU holder further counters GPU sag. Dual-ball fan bearings enhance longevity, allowing the fans to operate efficiently for extended periods. The use of military-grade components ensures reliable power delivery and prolonged lifespan, while a protective PCB coating guards against moisture, debris, and dust. Our Auto-Extreme manufacturing process also guarantees exceptional quality, living up to the TUF reputation.

Many PC builders appreciate the understated yet rugged style of TUF Gaming graphics cards. The RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 retain this aesthetic, complete with a lit TUF Gaming logo and support for Aura Sync for cohesive lighting across your equipment.

Prime Graphics: Compact Performance at an Attractive Price

For those seeking solid performance without overspending, ASUS Prime products, including their graphics cards, provide excellent value — a sentiment echoed in their Prime motherboards, PC cases, power supplies, and AIO coolers.

The Prime Radeon RX 9070 XT OC Edition and Prime Radeon RX 9070 OC Edition integrate an efficient triple-fan cooling system within a compact 2.5-slot silhouette, making them ideal for smaller chassis without compromising on gaming performance.

Similar to their TUF counterparts, the Prime variants utilize phase-change GPU thermal pads, ensuring optimal heat management and durability. With dual-ball fan bearings, 0dB technology, a dual BIOS switch, and an aluminum protective backplate, these models are built with both reliability and performance in mind.
