The folks over at VideoCardz report that their original story had PowerColor launching the new Radeon AI PRO W9700 featuring AMD's in-house reference design, with AMD confirming it wouldn't be launching any reference cooler for the card, and that the card shown in renders was "purely an artistic interpretation".

PowerColor is now no longer showing off its "reference" design, instead showing its own in-house blower-style cooler that has reportedly replaced the older version. The new PowerColor Radeon AI PRO R9700 graphics card has a new custom cooler design, with tweaks made to the PCB, as well as the capacitor layout. The card continues on with the blower-style cooler, but the fan has been tweaked and pushed back slightly, making room for multi-GPU clusters.

Inside, the PowerColor Radeon AI PRO R9700 graphics card features the Navi 48 GPU with 4096 Stream Processors, 32GB of GDDR6 memory at 20Gbps on a 256-bit memory interface, and it sits on the PCIe 5.0 x16 interface. The Navi 48 GPU has a Game Clock of 2350MHz and Boost Clock of 2920MHz, with 4 x DisplayPort 2.1a connectors, and a single 16-pin PCIe power connector. The card measures in at 270 x 111 x 40mm (or 280 x 127 x 40mm with the bracket used).

The Radeon AI PRO R9700 is basically a Radeon RX 9070 XT, but ready for professionals, and not gamers.
