How can I get a Yeston card in the US?

It is a fetish kind of a product, so I'm not surprised. :laugh:
Ah yes, fetishes. Proof that we as human beings are just batshit-crazy! :roll:

Frankly, wanting a cute card that smells weird seems to me quite normal compared to the absolutely insanely tasteless crap that passes on for "gamer gear" and sells in dozens of millions, lmao

True, black & gray and black & white seems to be the new colour scheme standard, and the design of "gamer" gear is a horror story as well.
 
Hey all, I'm helping a friend build his magnum opus pc and we decided on doing a tie-dyed themed build with a painted case and the new Livemixer motherboard from asrock. When we were looking for GPUs we wanted something overly-colorful and preferably without rgb and I came across the Yeston Sakura 7900 XTX. The problem is that it only appears to be available from JD and I can't find a solid answer if they ship to the US or not. Moreover I'm not sure if Yeston's aliexpress store will ever carry it based on what I'm reading. Would we have to import it somehow or use a package forwarding service or is there another way?

it says that it ships to USA in plain english though.

Well, I think that it's because while the majority of serious gamers in the West are male, the same is not true in the East. Video cards sold in the West have historically been very masculine designs with hard-angled utilitarian shapes, sinister-looking graphics and darker colouring:

In the East however, there is a much higher frequency of serious female gamers and names like Sparkle and Yeston would cater to them. In contrast to the very masculine designs, these designs are decidedly more feminine with softly curved organic shapes, cute or artsy-looking graphics and lighter colouring:

Now, personally, I LOVE how that cat card looks and I am a man but there's no denying that it was never aimed at me.
