GALAX Reveals New "FIRE" Graphics Card Series, Debuting with GeForce RTX 5070 Model

Earlier today, GALAX unveiled a brand-new custom GeForce RTX 5070 graphics card—according to ITHome, this offering marks the debut of the manufacturer's FIRE product series. This nomenclature has raised eyebrows across Western press outlets—given recent "high temperature" events involving NVIDIA "Blackwell" GPUs; GALAX's latest introduction seems to be a bit clumsy (timing-wise). The freshly introduced triple-fan model sports a "Cyber Black Flame" design; promotional imagery showcases an almost all-black aesthetic. The shroud features carbon fiber texturing and pattern-embossed sections. Its backplate displays prominent white GALAX branding and GeForce RTX text. The FIRE's cooling system is referred to as "wandering star."

According to its specification sheet, the GALAX GeForce RTX 5070 FIRE 12 GB model sticks closely to Team Green reference points. Currently, TechPowerUp's GPU database lists four GB205 GPU-based GALAX SKUs—in 1-Click or EX Gamer forms—all factory overclocked affairs. ITHome's report does not mention any price point for the debut FIRE card, but expectations point to a possible baseline MSRP conformant release in China. GALAX has prepped the GeForce RTX 5070 FIRE with a very barebones dual-slot design—akin to MSI's relatively new SHADOW 3X series. The GeForce RTX 5070 SHADOW 3X model also adheres to NVIDIA reference specs, including a TDP rating of 250 W.

"Fire" branded Nvidia cards? I wonder what sort of power connector these are using . . .

Either Galax has good sense of humor, or they are totally tonedeaf to what's been happening.
I'll wait for the FullROP edition then.

Unfortunate indeed! The question is, whether it is as fiery for real, or are they just burning the wallet...

It's got a 12VHPWR. But..

...it's only a 250W TDP so it's not likely to suffer from the overheating cable problem.
