Yeston Launches Radeon RX 9070 Series Sakura & Sakura Atlantis Models
Yeston unveiled its striking Radeon RX 9070 XT 16 GB Sakura Atlantis card design around mid-January, along with an NDA-busting specification disclosure. The Chinese board partner seemingly disregarded AMD's guarded approach; by happily revealing an allocated pool of 16 GB VRAM. Later on, teasers emerged via the brand's social media accounts—including photos from an outdoor fashion shoot. Press outlets were expecting Yeston's launch lineup to consists of Sakura Atlantis Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 SKUs, but "bog standard" Sakura options have also appeared online.
The company's bafflingly abstract design is a familiar property; due to its deployments on a variety of past-gen hardware. According to one of Yeston's promotional images, their standard Sakura design only applies to a lone Radeon RX 9070 XT SKU. Both product tiers were accompanied by a message from their manufacturer: "Sakura And Sakura Atlantis are here! Yeston RX 9070 Series graphics cards are built to deliver all you need for ultra-fast gaming, with next-level visuals and future-ready features, supercharged with AI."Appropriately, the Sakura Atlantis shroud, backplate and fans are decorated with all sorts of ocean-themed graphics and engravings. Plus an obligatory "waifu" illustration. Additionally, Yeston is spreading this pearlescent aesthetic over to the NVIDIA side of their portfolio. VideoCardz has found a JD.com listing of Yeston's Radeon RX 9070 XT Sakura Atlantis model. Chinese market pricing (including VAT) is 5099 RMB (~$702 USD), so 100 RMB north of Team Red's recommended entry point.The standard Radeon RX 9070 XT Sakura model seems to be Yeston's MSRP baseline conformant offering; priced at 4999 RMB (~$688 USD).Official social media accounts have documented the company's participation in last week's full introduction of Radeon RX 9070 Series graphics cards. Brand representatives were present on-stage at AMD's Beijing press conference:

Now that you mentioned it, when is the HE (Hentai Edition) coming out? :rolleyes:
As for the design and the whole "cringe culture" discussion, IDGAF what people think about my preferences. That was never my concern. :laugh:
As discussed many times on this forum, North Americans often forgot about "foreign" markets including VAT in product prices.
I would share a link but there is not any SFW ones lol....
Googling offered way more than I was expecting or wanted to see.
Also, last few posts were some of the most boomer shit I have ever seen.
