Earlier this week, AMD carried out a surprise unveiling of its Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12 GB graphics card model. Prior to then, mixed messages—delivered via the usual insider sources—pointed to a myriad of possible launch windows within 2025. Despite claims of the RDNA 4 generation's debut "Great Radeon Edition" getting bumped into the latter half of this year , VideoCardz produced evidence of PowerColor readying Red Devil and Reaper SKUs for imminent arrival at retail outlets in China. Currently, Team Red and board partner participants have opened up pre-orders—finalized Radeon RX 9070 GRE products are due to launch on May 8; as Chinese market exclusives. A small selection of ASUS, PowerColor, Sapphire and Yeston custom designs are on the way—mostly reusing familiar shroud and backplate IPs.

Surprisingly, ASUS has opted out of redeploying current-gen PRIME and TUF Gaming Radeon enclosures. During AMD's official RDNA 4 "Great Radeon Edition" introduction day, the manufacturer revealed their lone custom GRE option: an ATS Megalodon SKU. VideoCardz has gathered new details—from ASUS China's official website and local e-commerce platforms. "ATS-RX9070GRE-O12G Megalodon" pre-orders are available with a 4199 RMB launch price point; aligning directly with AMD's recommended baseline MSRP. This factory overclocked card features a fairly basic 2.5-slot thick triple-fan cooling solution, but the company's marketing team has emphasized the utilization of phase-change GPU thermal pads. Certain previous-gen (NVIDIA-based) Megalodon models were hyped up with "Back To Future" (BTF) connectivity, but the forthcoming ATS Megalodon Radeon RX 9070 GRE is a relatively barebones offering.
