GALAX launches GeForce RTX 5070 Ti HOF OC LAB Black Soul series
GALAX has introduced two black versions of its GeForce RTX 5070 Ti HOF OC LAB graphics card. The new Black Soul series consists of the standard Black Soul and the higher-clocked Black Soul X.
HOF OC LAB switches from white to black
The cards are effectively black versions of the white HOF OC LAB models already available from GALAX. The company has changed the cooler, backplate, heatsink fins, heat pipes and PCB to an all-black finish while retaining the crown-shaped HOF cooler and ARGB lighting.
