Yeston has introduced its latest Radeon RX 9070 XT graphics cards, blending gaming with sensory indulgence. These hardware pieces power high-octane gameplay while filling your space with curated scents. The two models, Sakura Atlantis and Sakura, are powered by AMD RDNA 4 and integrate fragrance modules to provide a multisensory experience. The Sakura Atlantis variant offers an "ocean breeze" aroma, while the standard Sakura model provides a floral bouquet. Tech reviewers at Gamers Nexus tested these claims and humorously compared the Atlantis's scent to a mix of car air fresheners, mall perfume samples, and freshly laundered fabric. Despite marketing's poetic descriptions, the team emphasized the subjectivity of scent perception.
Yeston's design strategically places the fragrance cartridge near the GPU fan to disperse odors as airflow circulates. However, replacing the module requires complete disassembly, which may be challenging even for experienced builders. Yeston has not confirmed if refills will be available for purchase separately, leaving users uncertain about long-term viability. Aesthetically, the cards continue Yeston's anime-inspired legacy with pastel hues and a "waifu" character on the backplate, paying homage to ATI's iconic Ruby mascot. Both models boast identical specs, including a 5% higher game clock than reference designs, triple 8-pin power connectors, and modern display outputs. Priced between $869 and $899, these limited-edition GPUs are currently in short supply, with restocks expected after April. While ASUS has previously experimented with scented laptops, Yeston's approach feels more refined and niche. Whether seen as a gimmick or genius, Yeston's fragrant venture challenges norms by proving that not everything is about looks and performance. After all, why shouldn't your gaming experience smell as good as it looks?
