Vastarmor's Chinese website has been updated with a new workstation-grade graphics card model. This new addition seems to signal the AMD board partner's debut in the field of producing dedicated professional graphic solutions. The company is better known for its well-populated gaming product range, utilizing several generations of Team Red Radeon GPU tech. At CES 2026, TechPowerUp enjoyed sneak peeking a pleasingly low-profile prototype Radeon RX 9060 XT card at the Minisforum booth. Up until the start of this year, Vastarmor has deployed AMD's Navi 48 GPU die in flagship Super Alloy and regular Alloy Radeon RX 9070 XT SKUs. This supply relationship has expanded into Navi 48 XTW territories, as demonstrated by the manufacturer's fresh listing of a custom Radeon AI PRO R9700 32 GB model.

Somewhat disappointingly, the Chinese AIB has not deviated much from Team Red's official reference design. Visually, Vastarmor's largely faithful interpretation distinguishes itself by adding company logos/branding onto the shroud, backplate, and the blower fan's face. When compared to a slightly older low effort PowerColor rendition, Vastarmor's "customization" goes the extra mile. According to Vastarmor's spec sheet (translated from Mandarin), this new product adheres to AMD's reference levels. No details regarding pricing or regional availability are present on the company's product page. Last October, Team Red's official Radeon AI PRO R9700 reveal set an MSRP of $1299. The ongoing computer memory crisis will likely drive up costs across consumer and professional markets. Workstation cards, that pack 32 GB of GDDR6 or GDDR7 VRAM, are expected to become increasingly expensive prospects.

Vastarmor, a Chinese graphics card specialist, has showcased an intriguingly compact custom Radeon RX 9060 XT design at this week's CES trade event. The TechPowerUp team stumbled upon this fairly unique demo unit—at least for AMD's dGPU RDNA 4 generation—when perusing the Minisforum booth. Concrete details were not available at the time of writing, but TPU staffers will endeavor to extract more information from Vastarmor representatives in the near future. On initial inspection, the slimline two-slot card seems to be a prototype/early sample—given the unfinished nature of its backplate; as evidenced by incomplete/cut-off AMD Radeon branding.

Normally, Vastarmor's triple-fan cooling solutions have been deployed on more potent and larger hardware, but their CES 2026 product showcase focuses on dinky shroud and PCB designs. ASUS and Gigabyte have tended to release similarly proportioned low profile triple-fan cards, albeit with NVIDIA GPU tech under the hood. Team Red introduced its reference Radeon RX 9060 XT LP 16 GB SKU mid-way through December, with reports pointing out that this twin-fan model could be reserved for the Chinese market. Specifications mention a slightly reduced TDP rating, when compared to the standard Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB—140 W instead of 160 W. It is likely that Vastarmor engineers have used AMD's Navi 44 GPU-based LP reference model as a springboard for their own customized solution.

Roughly a month ago, Vastarmor debuted its "Super-less" Radeon RX 9070 XT Alloy SKU. The Chinese manufacturer's barebones spin-off—derived from a triple-fan flagship design—was stripped of fancy ARGB trimmings. Additionally, this sober-looking alternative option was deemed unworthy of sporting 3.1 GHz boost clock credentials—instead, making do with a mere 3010 MHz setting. A brand-new "Super Alloy Ultra" model retains elite-tier membership; as demonstrated by a recently published specification sheet. The Vastarmor design team has opted into using a louder and wider color palette; clearly demonstrated by their fresh RX 9070 XT Super Alloy Ultra's zany pearlescent rainbow-spectrum shroud setup. Unfortunately, this bright aesthetic treatment did not extend to the new flagship's backplate. The AIB's Super Alloy White option was appropriately decorated; on the front and back. Vastarmor's latest offering is not expected to break retail barriers beyond Chinese markets. ASRock's premium Radeon RX 9070 XT Taichi OC card is—perhaps—the closest to being a visually "eccentric" option for global audiences. Fittingly, its factory overclocked talents include a 3.1 GHz boost clock.

Vastarmor—a Chinese manufacturer—was introduced as an important board partner during AMD's special Radeon 9070 Series event. Despite having limited reach outside of its home base, the fairly young brand's custom designs have gained press traction around the globe. TechPowerUp covered Vastarmor's introduction of new Super Alloy series Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 models back in late February. The triple-fan ARGB-lit flagship model was positioned in good (rival) company, thanks to a maximum 3.1 GHz boost capability. As reported by VideoCardz, Vastarmor has added another custom Radeon RX 9070 XT option to its RDNA 4 product portfolio. A freshly-published product page has outlined specifications for the brand's new (non-Super) Alloy SKU.

Outside of Vastarmor's dedicated listing, a quick web search of the model's identifier code—AH-9070XT16TC1BR7N—reveals BIOS information, and little else. The Radeon RX 9070 XT Alloy seems to be a straightforward spin-off of its fancier sibling, albeit sans ARGB lighting zones. This barebone design sports non-transparent black fans, but preserves the flagship card's triple 8-pin power connector configuration. Vastarmor has downgraded its non-Super model's boost clock to a mere 3010 MHz (instead of 3100 MHz)—as configured on rival cards: ASUS PRIME RX 9070 XT OC, PowerColor Hellhound RX 9070 XT, and Sapphire PURE RX 9070 XT. Curiously, a white Alloy option is not present on Vastarmor's website—their current-gen Super Alloy range launched with pale alternatives.

Vastarmor continues on its path to become a reliable graphics card manufacturer and AMD board partner (since the RDNA 2 days) and they are among the first to announce their own implementations for the latest AMD RDNA 4 graphics architecture with the launch of the Vastarmor Radeon RX 9070 XT Super Alloy and Vastarmor Radeon RX 9070 Super Alloy graphics card series. Both graphics cards are available in black and white versions and use 100 mm fans with ARGB lighting.

The RX 9070 XT Super Alloy has a three-fan design measuring 326.66 mm long, 59.4 mm wide, and takes up 2.8 slots. The RX 9070 Super Alloy uses a dual-fan approach and measures 281.44 mm x 50.15 mm, taking up 2.5 slots. Both graphics cards are equipped with a reinforced metal backplate. In terms of specifications, Vastarmor opted to tune up the clock speeds a bit: the RX 9070 XT Super Alloy features a 2570 MHz Game Clock (2.4 GHz reference) / Up to 3100 MHz Boost Clock (3.0 GHz reference), while the RX 9070 Super Alloy uses a 2210 MHz Game Clock (2.1 GHz reference) / Up to 2700 MHz Boost Clock (2.5 GHz AMD reference).

International corporate entities have to deal with global time differences; causing uncountable logistical headaches. As evidenced by local reports; AMD and board partner representatives decided to debut their next-gen Radeon RX 9070 Series in front of a (mostly) Chinese audience. The much earlier than anticipated presentation took place well in advance of the "main event," with Jack Huynh and other Team Red big brass showcasing brand-new products to regional distributors and media outlets. VideoCardz believes that this "surprise" press mini-junket occurred—roughly—twelve hours ahead of the officially scheduled international "special broacast."

Baseline price points—VAT included—of 4999 RMB (~$686 USD) and 4499 RMB (~$617 USD) were announced, for the incoming Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 models (respectively). We now know that North American MSRPs (excluding tax) are $599 and $549 (respectively). AMD's presentation slides included more shots of their reference designs (MBA), in triple or dual-fan configurations. Earlier in the week, industry watchdogs proposed that the Radeon RX 9070 Series would launch with an all-custom card lineup; with no AMD-built options. Attendees noted several on-stage board partner company reps, including Jack Yu (ASUS China). ASRock, GIGABYTE, PowerColor, VASTARMOR, XFX and Yeston were the other participants; with demonstration hardware in their hands.

AMD at the 2025 International CES announced the Radeon RX 9070 XT and Radeon RX 9070 desktop performance-segment graphics cards. These will be the face of AMD's next generation of gaming graphics products, and will be powered by the new RDNA 4 graphics architecture. AMD hopes to launch both cards within Q1 2025. AMD changed the nomenclature of its gaming GPUs mainly because it has made a tactical retreat from the enthusiast graphics segment, its fastest products will compete in the performance segment. From the way AMD arranged the Radeon RX 9070 series and 9060 series product stack against the backdrop of the Radeon RX 7000 series, the GeForce RTX 4000 series, and the anticipated GeForce RTX 5000 series, the RX 9070 XT will offer performance roughly similar to the Radeon RX 7900 XT in raster, with the RX 9070 being slightly faster than the RX 7800 XT. The RX 9060 XT will beat the RX 7700 XT, while the RX 9060 beats the RX 7600 XT.

With RDNA 4, AMD claims generational SIMD performance increase on the RDNA 4 compute units. The 2nd Gen AI accelerators will boast of generational performance increase, and AMD will debut a locally-accelerated generative AI application down the line, called the AMD Adrenalin AI, which can generate images, summarize documents, and perform some linguistic/grammar tasks (rewriting), and serve as a chatbot for answering AMD-related queries. This is basically AMD's answer to NVIDIA Chat RTX. AMD's 3rd Gen Ray accelerator is expected to reduce the performance cost of ray tracing, by putting more of the ray tracing workload through dedicated hardware, offloading the SIMD engine. Lastly, AMD is expected to significantly upgrade the media acceleration and display I/O of its GPUs.

Vastarmor's Radeon RX 7900 XTX Super Alloy custom model was revealed a while back (four months ago according to VideoCardz)—for whatever reason, it has taken a long time for finalized units to reach retail outlets in China. A newly discovered JD.com listing reveals an interesting price point of 6799 RMB (~$940)—given the Radeon RX 7900 XTX GPU's age at this point in time, Vastarmor has implemented quite a steep discount over the launch MSRP for Chinese markets (7999 RMB). The premium tier ARGB-appointed "Super Alloy" models sport substantial custom cooling solutions—clearly designed to temper higher boost clocks. VideoCardz has looked at the best Navi 31-based cards on the field: "(Vastarmor's latest) is actually among the fastest models on the market. Currently, the highest boost clock for RX 7900 XTX is 2680 MHz, and it can be found on models like ASRock Taichi, Aqua, PowerColor Liquid Devil, or Sapphire Nitro+."

The RX 7900 XTX Super Alloy is one of the largest high-end gaming graphics cards out there—it is a triple-slot, 330 mm x 134 mm x 69 mm design. Strangely, Vastarmor's reference specced RX 7900 XTX Starry Sky model also sports a similarly-proportioned cooling solution. ZOTAC's Prime Gamer Force (PGF) OC design remains triumphant in terms of stupendous dimensions—check out these digits: 381 mm (L) x 154 mm (W) x 74 mm (D)! ZOTAC PGF cards are Chinese market exclusives—much like Vastarmor's best offerings—only the most hardcore/deep-pocked enthusiasts outside of the PRC will be importing these vast gaming hardware delights.

Vastarmor is a relatively young graphics card manufacturer and AMD board partner (since the RDNA 2 days)—their Alloy product range was updated with new Radeon RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT triple-fan "PRO" models last September. VideoCardz has discovered a new dual-fan "non-PRO" white variant—the Vastarmor RX 7700 XT Alloy White 12 GB. TPU's GPU database entry lists a release date of August 25—according to the VideoCardz report, Vastarmor has not settled on final pricing or an official launch date. The standard black (with small red accents) RX 7700 XT Alloy model did reach Chinese retailers last year—the pale variant is predicted to cost about the same, or demand a slight premium over the black version.

Specifications remain consistent across both—according to VideoCardz: "Vastarmor has verified that the card maintains a base clock of 1784 MHz, a game clock of 2276 MHz, and a boost clock that reaches up to 2600 MHz (an overclock of 2.2% for boost). Despite its compact size, measuring at 26.3 x 13.2 cm, the card demands three slots due to its thickness of 5.6 cm. Power-wise, it relies on standard 8-pin power connectors, installed in pairs." The factory-set overclocks are identical to the numbers designated to Vastarmor's RX 7700 XT Alloy PRO model, although their triple-fan design is slightly slimmer. The longer design accommodates a 90 mm fan, positioned between two 100 mm units.

Vastarmor has updated their Alloy graphics card cooling solution with the introduction of customized Radeon RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT models—the Chinese manufacturer is keeping things local, so their latest products are unlikely to reach retailers outside of the PRC. This small sticking point has not deterred TPU's GPU database curator—entries have been created for both cards. 4499 RMB (~$612) bags you Vastarmor's Radeon RX 7800 XT Alloy, while their Radeon RX 7700 XT Alloy starts at 3999 RMB (~$545). The two Navi 32 chiplet-based cards appear to share the exact same shroud design and triple-fan setup.

Vastarmor's robust cooling system relies on a 100 + 90 + 100 mm fan array with a somewhat unique visual twist—RGB enthusiasts will be stoked to know that lighting has been integrated into each individual fan. VideoCardz digs the resultant effects: "as the fans spin, gamers will be treated to the mesmerizing sight of what can be described as RGB rings, hopefully nothing too hypnotic." The new Alloy cards arrive with factory set overclocks—providing a rough 5 to 6% climb over AMD's reference figures. Vastarmor has their Radeon RX 7800 XT model configured with 1624/2254/2565 MHz (base/game/boost). The Radeon RX 7700 XT Alloy's spec sheet states 1784/2276/2600 MHz.
