Sapphire shows new Radeon RX 9070 Pulse GPU

Absence at CES and expectations

Although Sapphire has shown other models, such as the PURE and the NITRO+during CES 2025, the PULSE series was not presented at the event.

The PURE model was displayed at the Sapphire booth, while the NITRO+ appeared in AMD promotional materials. However, the initial focus on PULSE, a more basic line of boards, raises questions about the company’s marketing strategy.

Other AMD partner manufacturers, such as PowerColor and Yeston, have already launched teaser campaigns for their respective RDNA4 cards.

In contrast, brands like Gigabyte have chosen to release information directly on their official websites, without prior teasers.

Specifications and release

So far, AMD has not confirmed the official release date for cards based on the architecture RDNA4 to your partners. The expectation is that marketing campaigns, including Sapphire’s, will be aligned after this date is defined.

The PULSE line is traditionally aimed at consumers seeking a balance between cost and performance, with a focus on energy efficiency and compact design.

The company has not yet revealed technical details, but the dual-fan design suggests a thermal solution designed to meet the needs of users with moderate demands.

Sapphire’s decision to start its advertising campaign with a more basic model may indicate an approach aimed at a broader audience before launching higher performance cards such as the PURE and NITRO+.
