SAPPHIRE listed a China-only NITRO+ Radeon RX 9070 XT OC PhantomLink V26 edition themed for the 2026 VALORANT Champions Tour, adding custom fan-hub logos and a magnetic backplate graphic rather than new hardware.
4096 stream processors, a 2520 MHz game clock and up to 3060 MHz boost remain unchanged, alongside 16GB of 20 Gbps GDDR6 on a 256-bit bus and 64MB of Infinity Cache.
330W board power and an 850W PSU recommendation also carry over; the 3.2-slot card keeps SAPPHIRE's PhantomLink motherboard power option plus a standard 12V-2x6 connector with a bundled 3x 8-pin adapter.
The V26 model differs visually from AMD's VCT CN 2026 collector card by keeping SAPPHIRE's dark NITRO+ fans, and it follows the earlier RX 9070 XT Crimson Desert Edition built around the same 3060 MHz boost profile.
Pricing has not been announced, and the card is currently listed only on SAPPHIRE's Chinese website rather than its global RX 9070 XT product page.
