PowerColor launches custom Plague Tale-themed RX 9070 XT

Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy has been one of the biggest new game releases of the month. Now, PowerColor has teamed up with Focus Entertainment to produce a limited‑edition RX 9070 XT featuring custom artwork from the game.

The Resonance Edition keeps the same core specifications as the standard Hellhound model but swaps in a themed backplate showing the character Sophia in gold tones. The card also includes an amber LED lighting option, toggled via a dual‑stage switch.

Under the shroud, the card uses AMD’s RDNA 4 architecture with 64 CUs and 16GB of GDDR6 running at 20Gbps on a 256‑bit bus. Boost clocks reach up to 3010MHz in OC mode, and a Dual BIOS switch provides a quieter profile if needed.

Cooling comes from PowerColor’s usual Hellhound setup, a triple‑fan cooler with reverse‑rotation fans, dual‑ball bearings and Honeywell PTM7950 phase‑change material. A copper baseplate covers both the GPU and VRAM, and the fans stay off until temperatures pass 50°C. Power delivery uses a 10+1 phase VRM on a 12‑layer PCB.

Each card ships with a digital copy of Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy and a themed PowerColor mousepad.

Would you pick up a themed GPU like this, or stick with the standard model?
