Yeston Takes its Radeon RX 9070 XT Sakura Atlantis Model Outdoors

[T0@st]

This morning, an official Yeston social media account boasted about receiving a brand new Navi 48 GPU-equipped model: "got my Sakura Atlantis RX 9070 XT today!! It's shiny!‍" This message was accompanied by four photos, showcasing the card in an outdoor setting. This particular custom design (with white PCB and I/O bracket) was first revealed around mid-January—also via a photo shoot, albeit indoors—with the full moniker: "Radeon RX 9070 XT-16G Sakura Atlantis." Many press outlets jumped onto the presence of "16G" in that name—indicating 16 GB of VRAM—a specification point that AMD was reportedly wanting hidden from public view. Unlike certain Team Red board partners, Yeston has not set up a dedicated product page for the new Sakura Atlantis.

A March launch window has been set—made official by AMD's David McAfee—for the Radeon RX 9070 XT and Radeon RX 9070 (non-XT). VideoCardz has observed a slow-down in promotional activities from AIBs over the past couple of days—bizarrely, GIGABYTE has chosen to scrub all Radeon RX 9000 series products from its website. Hardware Busters believes that AMD will be taking notes during the GeForce RTX 5070 GPU's launch week—they allege that the gathering of performance data (from NVIDIA hardware) is crucial in revising strategies for the March launch of RDNA 4 cards. In the meantime, Yeston will likely continue to post pretty pictures of its cute Sakura Atlantis design—also lined up for attachment on their upcoming "Blackwell" GPU-equipped lineup.

Is the anime girl from a gacha game, or is it Yeston's mascot?

Cos photos of products in weird locations is appealing? How odd.

Do Mazda advertise their newest vehicle by showcasing it under water off the Continental shelf? (That actually sounds coool though!)

Interesting placement on the powerplug.

I really want that. Too bad they are unobtainable here. I do not want to bother with international import, tax tarif which is a nightmare here, import tax. I also do not have a way to pay with credit card.

waifu = +5000 FPS

I really like their marketing. - It's for another graphic card - 7800XT

I think I saw in the past some small paper book with a story with the graphic card.

The GPU is incredibly close to the PCIe slot. What’s up with that?

Hey, be respectful. It's someone's waifu we are talking about here.

Back to the question. It's not from any game nor is it Yeston's mascot, it's just an anime character created by Yeston. For example, the Sakura Sugar series graphics card comes with a comic book about the anime character on the graphics card. Think of it as Yeston's way of telling the origin story of the anime girl, so definitely something they create.

"Yeston takes its Radeon RX 9070 XT Sakura Atlantis model outdoors" - right where it belongs, imo.

I think they could be really popular even in europe/usa if they made collab like all those HYTE case with anime, games and vtuber.

Except the ASROCK Livemixer B650 mainboard there are no uncommon hardware available in central europe. I talk about mainboard and graphic cards.

Low value items like 2€ mice which are sold much higher do not count. Same applies for keyboards, mousepads. I bought quite often gamer mice for 6-7€ which had an asking price before for around 40€

RGB does not count. RGB is just common feature now on everything regardless if someone wants it or not. It is a "freebie" I do not want but I have to pay for it regardless. There are hardly any non rgb hardware left.

It's not unique to Yeston, Asus (white mainboards and power supplies) and XPG (RAM) have been using anime girls on their products for a number of years now. It is only in China though, maybe they know something we don't.

I can totally see me buying those cute lil' RAM sticks
This is a bit more discrete than a case so why not ?

Finana????

You think the co uses gacha girls to sell hardware? Jesus you're getting old...
It is Sakura Atlantis, a vtuber and most likely under corpo contract.
JP idol meta maxxing, hopefully minus the "idol(creeper) culture."

Finana????

Fffhahahaah now that's wild. I remember when my VR spaces were first getting invaded by vtubers.
No Finana or corpo signs but I found Aqua, Gura and Tokino LONG before ever hearing of Hololive.
In fact, this is kind of the reason I associate certain very random characters with some friends.
They adopt the characters as their own and oddly, their choices all seem to fit very well.
