Packaging
The box for the RX 9070 XT Steel Legend has 2/3 of the background on the front in white with different shades of light grey as accents and then a large black stripe on the right. The big red stripe that AMD used to use looks to be black now, we saw the same thing with the Acer RX 9070 as well. That has the AMD logo and the full Radeon RX 9070 XT model name. The white section has the ASRock logo up in the top right corner and a large logo for the Steel Legend brand. In the bottom left corner, there is a small red box that lets you know that this card has 16GB of VRAM. Around on the back, the background is split up between black and white again. In the black section, they highlight all of the AMD tech details and features. Then on the white section, ASRock has six pictures, each showing a different feature of the RX 9070 XT Steel Legend. This includes touching on the RGB lighting, the triple fan design, the metal backplate, silent cooling, the reinforced frame, and the striped ring fan design. Each of those has a one-line description of the feature as well to add a little more information. Personally, I’m just happy that there are pictures of the card itself here, shopping in retail you don’t get much information and you can't see through the box. They have a specification listing but the only important information there is a listing of the display outputs. I understand that they can't put the clock speeds there because oftentimes the packaging is finalized before that number is. But I would love to see the dimensions included, which is important depending on your case size, and for retail shoppers, you would want to know.
When you open the box up the RX 9070 XT Steel Legend comes wrapped up in its static protective bag inside. There is a layer of foam on top and then a thicker layer of foam which is cut to fit the card to keep it from moving around. Because the card uses PCIe power connections there isn’t a need for a power adapter cable to be included and because it isn’t a huge card there isn’t a support included. You get the card and that’s about it. Ours didn’t have any documentation inside, but I would imagine that retail cards will.
