SAPPHIRE Technology launched the PULSE Radeon RX 9070 GRE GAMING OC 12GB in Japan today, June 2, 2026. The card targets gamers who want overclocked performance out of the box without manual tuning.
Factory-overclocked card with 2920 MHz boost
The new PULSE model is based on AMD's Radeon RX 9070 GRE GPU and comes with 12GB of GDDR6 memory. It joins SAPPHIRE's existing PULSE lineup as a factory-overclocked variant.
Specifications
- Game Clock: 2340 MHz
- Boost Clock: 2920 MHz
- Memory Speed: 18 Gbps
- Memory: 12GB GDDR6
- Power Consumption: 240W
The card runs at a game clock of 2340 MHz and a boost clock of 2920 MHz. Memory speed is 18 Gbps across a 192-bit bus. Power consumption is rated at 240W, requiring a 650W or higher power supply with dual 8-pin connectors.
SAPPHIRE built the card with an 8-layer 2oz copper PCB that uses high-TG material for durability. Dimensions are 280mm long, 120.25mm wide, and 51.5mm thick, occupying 2.5 slots. Outputs include two DisplayPort 2.1a and two HDMI 2.1b ports.
The card supports SAPPHIRE's TriXX utility, which includes a Boost feature that integrates Radeon Image Sharpening to improve gaming performance. This software-based enhancement works with supported titles.
