ASUS today announced the TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 XT Onimusha Special Edition graphics card, arriving alongside Onimusha: Way of the Sword, which releases on September 4, 2026. More than a performance powerhouse, this card is a collectible piece of artistry—bundled with the game, slashing onto the scene, and ready for action.

A masterpiece of dark artistry
The TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 XT Onimusha Special Edition pays visual tribute to the world of Onimusha: Way of the Sword. A dark fantasy set in Edo-period Kyoto, the game invites players to explore the historic Japanese capital on the edge of a blade, battling underworld monstrosities with shadow and steel.

SAPPHIRE Technology, in collaboration with AMD and One More Level S.A., the acclaimed developer of first-person action-platformer and hardcore slasher Ghostrunner, formally unveils the SAPPHIRE NITRO+ AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT Valor Mortis Edition graphics card.

Adrian Thompson, VP of Marketing, SAPPHIRE"The NITRO+ Valor Mortis Edition is exactly what our community asked us for; flagship Radeon performance with a design that means something. We wanted every detail, from the custom backplate to the artwork on the fans, to feel like it belongs in the world of Valor Mortis. Working with AMD and One More Level, we've built a card that performs at the highest level, comes with a coupon for the game in the box, and stands out as a true collector's piece."

As if GPU prices weren't high enough, thanks to the ongoing RAMpocalypse driving up BOM costs continuously for what seems like the last year, the trend is clear. According to recent reports, it now seems as though AMD GPUs are slated to get even more price hikes in the near future. As reported by VideoCardz, based on a source on Board Channels, AMD has increased GPU vendor pricing by as much as $104 in China.

Reportedly, the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX6500 XT pricing will remain unchanged, but the RX 9070 will get a price hike equivalent to $104, being the steepest price increase on the list, while the RX 9060 XT 8 GB will get the smallest price increase, at $45. It is said that these price hikes are motivated by higher memory prices and manufacturing costs, and that, while they are seemingly local to China for the time being, international board partners have also been informed of the upcoming changes.

Sapphire is preparing a Valor Mortis edition of its Nitro+ Radeon RX 9070 XT OC, a themed variant created in collaboration with dev studio One More Level and publisher Lyrical Games to coincide with the launch of their first-person Soulslike action game on October 13, 2026. This isn't Sapphire's first themed graphic card, the most recent was the Nitro+ RX 9070 XT OC Crimson Desert edition. The Valor Mortis variant follows the same path: a custom logo on the fans and a magnetic backplate decorated with game artwork. Even if not officially announced yet, the GPU, memory, cooling, and factory overclock likely won't change as the specs would match the Crimson Desert edition. This means the GPU will have up to 3060 MHz boost clock and 2520 MHz game clock, while the card will feature 16 GB of 256-bit GDDR6 at 20 Gbps.

A copy of the game comes bundled with the card, however, Sapphire did not mention which edition, standard or deluxe. Also, pricing or an exact release date has not been announced. We estimate that the Sapphire Nitro+ Radeon RX 9070 XT OC will be available around October 13 or shortly after, given the game's launch date. As a side note, Sapphire is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. Founder and CEO KD Au said the milestone "belongs to our customers, our partners at AMD, and every member of the SAPPHIRE team," adding that the company started with the ambition of building the best graphics cards in the world, a goal he says still drives the company today.

According to the latest Steam Hardware and Software Survey update, in August, AMD's Radeon RX 9070 XT, the flagship of the RDNA 4 family, became the company's most popular discrete graphics card. With a share of 1.46% among surveyed Steam gamers, the Radeon RX 9070 XT ranks 24th in the graphics card popularity and market share list. From an immeasurable market share in April, Steam is seeing growth to about 1.33% in May, 1.35% in June, 1.40% in July, and finally reaching 1.46% in August. Currently, this places AMD's top RDNA 4 card just above NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 3080 and below the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER.

In comparison, NVIDIA's current GeForce RTX 50-Series "Blackwell" generation shows a strong presence, with the GeForce RTX 5070 ranking third on the list with a 3.77% share, the GeForce RTX 5060 at 3.16%, and the RTX 5060 Ti at 2.55% among gamers. NVIDIA's discrete GPUs appear to have significantly higher market penetration with the current "Blackwell" family, as even the high-end GeForce RTX 5080 holds a 1.71% share. It's worth noting that AMD still commands a large percentage of integrated graphics solutions, but when focusing on discrete GPUs, the second-best RDNA 4 share is the Radeon RX 9060 XT with a 0.80% share.

Acer has officially launched the Nitro 30 PC in Japan, a 28 L gaming PC powered by the AMD Ryzen 7 8700F and the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT, as the latest in its line-up of Nitro pre-built gaming desktops. The chassis features a semi-closed front panel with an edgy Nitro logo emblazoned on the front, and it has a tempered glass side panel to show off the internals. For now, it seems as though the Nitro 30 is exclusive to Japan, but a global launch may be planned for a later date, given the presence of the Nitro 85 and Nitro 60 in international markets.

The internals feature the aforementioned AMD Ryzen CPU, 32 GB of DDR5-5600 RAM in dual channel, a 1 TB PCIe Gen 4 NVMe SSD, and a built-in wireless card with Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity. The compact desktop chassis comes with an 850 W 80 Plus Gold PSU and two pre-installed 120 mm RGB case fans and another 120 mm RGB fan on the top-flow CPU cooler. The front intake has space for another 120 mm fan, but it does not look like there is additional space for more intake or exhaust fans.
