PowerColor Uploads Lots of Radeon RX 9070 XT Red Devil Promo Images
PowerColor has updated its website with a Radeon RX 9070 XT Red Devil product page—this is the first example of an RX 9000 series model being officially listed alongside their existing selection of (exclusively) AMD GPU-based graphics cards. The Taiwanese brand has not published any technical specifications—Team Red RDNA 4 NDAs are likely still in effect—but a pleasing number of Radeon RX 9070 XT Red Devil promotional images have been uploaded. A limited edition package (with alleged bundled extras) seems to be in the pipeline—VideoCardz has provided visual evidence of a fancy container (see below).
Teaser images appeared online at the start of this year—close-ups of glowing signature red parts were accompanied by an ominous message: "every edge shines like a gem. Every second burns like fire. If power was in your hands, how would you use it?" Days later, TechPowerUp inspected a fully unveiled Red Devil demonstration sample at CES 2025—new Hellhound and Reaper designs were also within reach. PowerColor's freshly uploaded images reveal one major difference—VideoCardz adeptly points out the presence of two 8-pin power connectors on the promos, while the CES example possessed three physical inputs. They theorize that renders of PowerColor's Radeon RX 9070 (non-XT) Red Devil model have appeared on the XT's product page. Beyond discrepancies in connector counts, the overall design matches that of the Las Vegas showcase model.

So i assume that poor cpu was fighting for some relief of the inferno surrounding it. :D
Inside:
Outside:
(Sources: idk, reddit I guess. Do reverse img search.)
As promised, did some testing and these are the results:
CPU idle: 57C
Prime95 after 5 minutes: 90C
GPU idle.
Same test as above but also stressing the GPU:
CPU Prime95 after 5 minutes: 95.1C
GPU stress only:
CPU idle: 68C
Mind you, this in on my Elite 120, which I cant place the cover on because the GPU blocks parts of it so its wide open and has a Artic 120mm Max up front.
The fan placement plus no cover seems to help the NVME temps, since those didnt change, regardless of the test.
Is there any way your case airflow could be improved?
But at this point, I wont be making any big changes since I want to upgrade the CPU, which means mobo, mem, cpu and cooler.
Given my current situation, I might move back to the Junsbo, since I dont want to change my current PSU and assuming that I end up doing the mentioned upgrade.
