Acer dropped a white version of its Predator Bifrost graphics card based on AMD's RX 9070 XT chip, and it's selling for around 855 bucks through their site and partner stores. The card comes with three custom fans that use a counter-spin setup and dual ball bearings to keep things quiet while moving air across a copper baseplate with heat pipes. There's also metal reinforcement on the back to stop the PCB from sagging.
Performance-wise, you're looking at boost clocks hitting 3,100 MHz with 16 gigs of GDDR6 memory running at 20 Gbps on a 256-bit bus. It's got three DisplayPort 2.1 outputs plus one HDMI 2.1a port, needs three 8-pin power connectors, and pulls up to 340 watts. The whole thing takes up 2.6 slots and weighs about 960 grams.
The white colorway is obviously aimed at people building themed rigs who want something besides the usual black or RGB rainbow aesthetic. Acer's basically betting that custom cooling and looks will help this stand out in a pretty crowded high-end GPU market.
