Sponsor: ID-Cooling Frozn A720 Black on Amazon https://geni.us/VDnou4Y While in China, we toured Yeston's partner factories for their famed AMD RX 9070 XT Waifu GPUs, aka the Sakura Sugar Atlantis. These graphics cards require dozens of factories to make if you go all the way up the supply chain, but four key factories are used by Yeston for the final parts. We visited the Yeston SMT line (Surface Mount Technology) for its AMD Radeon GPUs, then went to the metal shop that fabricates the video card backplates, and finally went to the painting and UV coating factories. We also had an opportunity to speak with the Creative Director, Zhou, who works to conceptualize the product and hires artists for the paint and styling. In this factory tour, we learn how the AMD RX 9070 XT Waifu GPU by Yeston is made. SUPPORT educational, independently-funded content!

Thanks Steve for an amazing video.
Hope people are still going to watch it after todays news about AMD dropping Radeon 5000 and 6000 support.
I'm personally done with AMD and won't be supporting a company that is blatantly anti consumer, so I'm never buying AMD GPU ever again. Lost most interest towards this company and probably won't be watching any vids about their products in the future. I'm done with PC gaming in the future, I'm keeping my current 6950xt perfectly capable gaming PC and not going to upgrade anymore as the parts are way overpriced, RAM going up, SSDs going up, GPUs going up, CPUs going up, motherboards going up, so most PC components going up in price instead of down so I'm done, have almost all the retro consoles, NES, SNES, N64, Megadrive, PS1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Xbox 360 and One with hundreds of physical games for them that I keep buying so I'm set.
Goodbye PC MASTER RACE was nice being a part of you for 20 years.

What card is being made Did I miss something You say it's 9070xt in the title but the GPU we're seeing at 6:30 does not appear to be a 9070XT at all. The Navi 48 die used for the 9070XT is monolithic, and much more of an elongated rectangular shape. This is clearly a multi-die module. I think those are infinity cache chips to the side of the die Looks like Navi 32 to me, so more likely this is a 7800XT. Around 17:55 we see another GPU, also not a 9070xt. Maybe a 9060xt (Navi 44) or 7600xt (Navi 33)
Seems weird to title the video and a chapter within the video after a GPU that doesn't seem to be on screen even once.

gamersnexus if you guys are looking for the next PC to do a tear down on could you please consider the MSI Vision elite zs I just got the one with the 5090/9950x3d and it’s been great but the cpu has been running in the low to mid 90s when playing battlefield 6 despite fans at 100% in msi center. Also it’s one of those systems where they advertise ddr5 at 6000 but it’s only at 4800 out of the box. Actually learned to check that by watching your tear downs so thanks!

I agree with Yeston Boss, most of current GPU designs are boring as hell, black and rgb... Would love to see more themed card designs also from popular comics, other anime, space or nature themed or games :) Something to give more colour to a gaming pc. We also need more clean steel or copper like designs fitting creator pc's similar to Asus Pro art series etc.
reply

Honestly, i like the design, i love waifu, yes.
The heatsink capability is solid (among average), but it has the lowest VRM/Memory temp which is important too, while Sapphire afaik have the highest temp on those areas.
The problem for me is, the quality of their fans and after sales service, so far haven't heard much because it's a new factory.

Interesting timing GamersNexus. Amd just dropped new games support for the 5000 and 6000 series. So the 6750 gre that was released in oct 23 gets less than two years of new games optimization support for it. So the 9070xt has less than 2 years of new games optimizations left on it with this new Amd policy No more Amd gpu's for me then
reply

I bet my Yeston 6800xt enjoyed playing a video of its birthplace lol.. Yes I did buy one.. and no not because Waifu.. Because I went with a white build and liked the coloring of the card, and well its a great GPU for me.. Also after watching the end of the video.. Exactly what I thought.. I wanted something not basic boring like most GPUs
reply

I really need an husbando graphic card, thx!
Ps: playing a Tauren and a Troll even if I am a woman.. and zi am married with a man.
There are a lot of different taste.. girl that play videogames are more than ever! Let's sub a petition for husbando graphic card with asus! Ahahah! Let's fight for the important things, right

Just got my Blacklisted shirt, drive, etc today!!! Two days early from the tracking's estimate! Packed perfectly! Why cant we have a ____ Nexus for everything else, too! Clearly its possible to do things correctly and exist as a company, so....... Keep setting the bar wherever you go! We need that now more than ever! Thanks!
reply

Yeston, please make some furry-themed designs sometime, too. since nobody else is doing anything interesting it's up to you to restore the balance yourself. with great power comes great responsibility, after all.
i'd take a revival of the Cute Pet, too, though. like a Capybara with an orange on its head kinda thing

reply

AMD really needs to dedicate some engineering talent to adding NVENC and NVDEC compatible hardware rendering. That's become a must-have. It's the make-or-break feature that pretty much forced me to go with NVidia, when I'm otherwise a big AMD fan. DaVinci Resolve is just no fun on an AMD GPU.
reply

The more expensive GPUs get, the less design they have, great to Yeston actually doing something against it. There's even a art book now, that contains only GPU box art, for cards made post in the 2020s most art will be provided by Yeston, because everyone else is just doing boring boxes.
reply

Which brand for this OEM for
I will not buy those brands because for display card factories, seem very dirty and no ISO standard.
You can see very dusty in their automate machine, no protection cloths for all their staffs etc, I will very doubt on the product QC...

reply

I wish we had Yeston available here. I mean... Yes. A Waifu-card. Yes. With a scent no less!
Love the tour and it's so interesting to see how they're made. Also: pretty damn hot that 260degrees celcius, ofc it's required and ofc it isn't there for days on end. But still!

reply

That isn't good if they don't change the clearly broken keyboards, it's part of maintaining the machines, I have used most of these machines at work, different product but none the less you need to keep them top notch condition so there is less product defects.
reply

Nice! I allways think about those companies beeing some kind of science fiction company but in reality they are just a regular factory with regular people and robots and working with high tech inputs to give us that piece of hardware we all want!
reply

your hardware reviews and testing are rly beeing put on the backburner with all the focus on bigger pieces and consumer rights. Dont get me wrong thoose things are great, but mby delegate to some one so we can also get product tests and reviews.
reply

where the fk are the addresses and names to the factories u went and made videos , now ul make some sht tonne of money on it and also do ur marketing bs, dont have the decency to credit their factories hahaha sad amer ic an behavior .
reply

I waited a couple days to watch this, and just heard about the news of AMD ending game support for RDNA 2 gpus. Whats everyone's thoughts on this I don't think I can recommend AMD gpus anymore if I'm understanding this change correctly.
reply

Amd killing of game support for RDNA2 already, Will never buy another AMD product ever again, Retail stores were still selling 6000 series off the shelf less than a year ago, So cards still in warranty no longer have driver support!
