PowerColor's Radeon RX 9070 XT Hellhound model is a known property—in terms of its visual presentation—due to a public unveiling at CES 2025, as well as renders appearing online via official product pages. The Taiwanese manufacturer has decided to update its custom graphics card designs for AMD's incoming RDNA 4 generation—for example; the flagship Red Devil family is also refreshed for 2025. So far, PowerColor has showcased "standard black" Red Devil, Hellhound and Reaper designs. Rumors of additional Spectral White variants were circulating online earlier in the week.

Chinese market-exclusive PowerColor Radeon RX 7650 GRE Reaper models were launched very recently, complete with a Spectral White option. Following this official launch, VideoCardz picked up on inside track information; pointing to possible pale variants of forthcoming RDNA 4-based Red Devil cards. Days later, another PowerColor leak has unearthed an unannounced Spectral White SKU, albeit in Hellhound flavor. This product family usually offers a nice balance of high-end features and favorable pricing; we hope to see concrete details tomorrow. The leaked Hellhound card seems to feature an almost all-white aesthetic; extending to its PCB design and I/O bracket. No major surprises were disclosed in VideoCardz's report, but they noted a potential absence of RGB lighting zones. Previous-gen Hellhounds sport "fixed-color" schemes; enabling blue or purple lighting.




Speculative PowerColor Radeon RX 9070 XT Hellhound Spectral White specifications, as revealed by VideoCardz:
  • GPU: Navi 48 XT (4096 Stream Processors)
  • Memory: 16 GB GDDR6 with 256-bit memory bus
  • GPU Clock Speeds: 2400/2970 MHz (Silent BIOS), 2460/3010 MHz (OC BIOS)
  • Design: Triple Fan, 2.5-slot, white PCB, white I/O bracket

Looks nice visually.. colored I/O bracket is a nice touch that I don't see super often (or just haven't had a card physically with an example of that, I guess)
 
The black version will be my next card if it will be available in my MicroCenter without overnight camping.
I have only good experience with Hellhound versions since it was introduced.
(I think Red Dragon versions were the equivalent quality/price/performance before that and I had great experience with those too)
 
Is it me or this card has only two pcie 8 pin plugs instead of three? Isn't it a little bit too low for 300w-ish power?

Not really each pin provides 150, plus 75 from the pcie slot.

I'm tempted too, but given the Reaper version seems to be priced at $1100, if the price comes true, it means it would be sold north of that. Not really affordable imo!

It will be 699max…

Seems like wishful thinking, but supposedly the RX 9070s just launched in China for $100 less than expected.
Radeon RX 9070 XT priced at ~$599(4999 RMB), RX 9070 at ~$549(4499 RMB)

The prices are a either a placeholder, or the US is getting prices with tariffs applied.

Each 8 pin provides at least 300 watts, otherwise my 4090 wouldn't pull 600w using the Super Flower adapter that goes from two 8 pins to the stupid connector.
Same as the Corsair adapter
 
Reasonably-sized, almost like the 7000-series MBAs, just a bit too long. The Hellhound Spectral White still has the white PCB which is great to see.

That was just a place holder price in the system.
I would assume MSRP +30~50USD for Hellhound.
At $680 it would be awesome.

7900GRE reaper was MSRP $550 and Hellhound version was $580
I hope it will be similar for 9070XT, $599 Reaper and $689-ish Hellhound
