Hardware News: ASrock Unveils an all-White Taichi Graphics Card with an Integrated LCD screen
ASrock has unveiled its flagship Taichi RX 9070 XT graphics card, featuring a crisp white design and an integrated, customizable LCD. This launch underscores ASRock's intent to compete in the top tier of the GPU market, directly challenging established premium brands such as Asus ROG and Gigabyte Aorus, which also feature LCD screens on their graphics cards.
That All White Design Though
The all-white theme from ASRock isn't your standard card design with a slapped-on, cheap white plastic shroud. The new Taichi all-white graphics card also features a triple-fan cooler, color-matched fans, and an exquisite white metallic backplate.
The signature "clockwork gear" motif is a staple of Taichi brand cards, both prominent and subtle. Instead of contrasting with gold or dark Grey gears, ASRock renders the brushed silver and pale Grey hues on the backplate, with the shroud capturing light without breaking the clean, frosty aesthetics. The ARGB lighting zones are uniquely diffused to provide a soft glow against the pale surface. ‘
The Star of the Show is the LCD Edge View Display
This displays the graphics card's defining features, which are oddly located on the side edge of the card that faces the user through a standard case window.
Interestingly, ASrock integrates a vibrant, full-color LCD screen. Via ASrock's Polychrome Sync software, the display transforms the GPU into an information hub. Real-time monitoring will allow users to configure the screen to cycle through key metrics, including GPU temperature, clock frequency, VRAM usage, and fan RPM, making software overlays on the primary monitor obsolete.
When it comes to customization, the screen supports animated GIFs, custom images, and stylized text, allowing PC builders to personalize rigs with logos or animated themes.
Premiere Performance
While the design of the Taichi graphics card takes center stage, the specs guarantee optimal performance. This particular model supports a boost frequency of up to 3100 MHz and a 2570 MHz game clock, plus 16GB of GDDR6 VRAM at 20 Gbps on a 256-bit bus, 64 RDNA compute units, and 4096 stream processors.
For cooling, the card uses a large heatsink and a robust VRM to sustain high boost clock frequencies. The triple-fan design ensures the card runs quietly and stays cool, even under demanding 4K gaming.
In Summary
The ASRock Radeon RX 9070 XT Taichi White's unique design is the definitive choice for PC builders whose primary focus is aesthetics, and I’m confident it will deliver potent performance from AMD’s RDNA 4 architecture, wrapped in what I think is a stunning industrial design. With its premium cooling, integrated LCD customization, and undeniable shelf presence, this graphics card will be more than just a component—it is a centerpiece that every all-white build deserves.
