Oh, absolutely. I would SO get one of these for one of our gaming PCs. (Hey, not every PC style has to be "Masculine" looking - after all, there's a lot of gamers of ALL genders now! And what's wrong with liking cute things? :-p) Edit: To clarify that, I would get a card that LOOKED like this... if it were competitive. Looking to upgrade a 1070Ti right now, so something above there worth upgrading to.
I legitimately love this card, it is ADORABLE. Can you imagine if flagship cards were like this? If the best RTX 2080ti was an adorable dragon curled around three fan shrouds? If an RX 5700 XT was flocked with greens, yellows and browns, and featured an RGB waterfall? The rise of RGB shows just how much the Gaming community is crying out for genuine individuality.

I can totally see this in a little girl gaming rig - I would have loved this as a kid! I love the idea of "fun" cards and cards that make it easy for you to play with the design. Imagine if someone made cards that had 3D printable parts/shrouds available so you could customise the shape to your hearts content released by the manufacturer?

i agree with this in all aspects except the molten plastic. as much as a salvador dali video card shroud would look good i'm not sure how well it would still work. resin printers typically lack the build volume and FDM printer filaments typically lack the temperature tolerance to handle 110 degrees of video card. only expensive printers are going to be able to work within the limits of these issues

Yeston deserves a lot of credit for thinking outside the box to deliver something that honestly is very different in terms of design.

So if they keep the same heat sink then I would rather the shroud look like Hello Kitty instead of getting thermal pads.
"Something different without sacrificing cooling design, without making it a silly knockoff for the sake of being a silly knockoff" **cuts to thicc boi card while saying this** SAVAGE 🤣 That turd of a card is turning into the next H500 (the original one with the stupid plastic front panel) and I love it.
I saw this in my TH-cam feed and put it up on the the TV with my kids in the room and they are freaking out! Lol. To be honest, we do need more variety than they typical ROG FATALITY DEATHMAX RGB GAAAAAAMER branding so props to them. There are more markets out there than the 20-30-something male.
Wang (depending on the tone) is the Chinese version of woof. Translating Wang Wang, you get “Woof Woof”. Given that, the card is likely supposed to look like a dog.
The box appears to have a little cat on it, so it might be trying to appeal to pet owners in general. The design is certainly ambiguous enough to appeal to both fans of cats and fans of dogs. Honestly, I am not well versed enough to know what tones are used (and what the corresponding characters are) to be certain if my translation is correct, but I can say that I have never heard of that onomatopoeia being used in Chinese to refer to any animal other than a dog. The sound cats make, is used as “Miao” in Chinese for the word cat (although I am not sure about the Mandarin tone there either). My knowledge on this is from reading translations of Chinese literature where a dog bark onomatopoeia was only partially translated into “wan” (rather than going with the English “woof”). The translator likely wanted readers to imagine the same onomatopoeia as people reading the original. That is how I know about it.
@Connor Walsh Japan got how to write from China (possibly through Korea) and likely imported dogs that way too. My guess is that they got the onomatopoeia from Chinese too.
This is a funny video. When I went to AliExpress, they show the GPU-Z for the card and it is almost Identical to the MSI RX 570 ARMOR 8G OC 8GB that I have in my old pc. You can currently buy an 8gb RX 570 for around $140 to $150. So, the Yeston card is about a $50 premium for the just for the style. But, I can see it would be good for a 8 or 10 year old girl's dream build... again loved the video, it is always good to keep things fun and interesting.
It’s funny that you guys actually looked at this card after I looked all over TH-cam for reviews on Yeston cards after stumbling upon this card on ebay while looking for a Red Devil 580. Awesome of you guys to look at this card and you’re right in pointing out that it would be nice to see some difference in style of cards. Even with rgb lighting most cards are still very aggressive and gamery looking. When I saw this card I instantly thought about someone trying to build a DVa style build, and the Japanese clouds would look great in a minimalistic style system. Hopefully something like this starts to make its way stateside.
If only, I wanted to gift my father with a mechanical keyboard (he works with typing all day and never used one), but literally not a single one exists in my country that isn't horribly "gamer" and barfing with LEDs and that doesn't cost a fortune. Brands are too high on 1% bath salts to care about interesting design.
I would buy this in a heart beat if it was on anything newer nvidia. Hahaha. It's awesome! V2.0 should have a nyaaan cat edition and a screen on it lol. Shit the box quality looks better than my EVGA recent buy.
I have a "Gigabyte RX 580 Gaming 8G" and I am satisfied with its performance, but it's nice to see a different design with more cheerful colors. Good video.
I've seen this card on AliExpress several times, interesting that this is better than most "premium" cards on the market. Would be a good card to make a pc for the GF. If one had one that is.
Fun review and good points. Once performance is established, manufacturers can be more creative with design and aesthetics. Ask customers what they want.
Thanks for the hilarious and informative video! I remember years ago Asus made some video card cooler designs that looked like F1 Race Cars. It would be nice to see gpu vendors come up with more interesting cooler designs instead of the usual bricks.
Is it weird this makes me want to be a parent even more? Like imagine having a ~9 yr old daughter open a christmas box and this is in the computer on display, maybe play some minecraft with them after. It's not just me right?
If I were to travel back in time I'd take these with me, go to when the 580 first came out and start selling them just so I could watch the actual manufacturers realize that people want weird wacky yet functional cards. Then come to the changed future where Wang Wang was the start of a revolution in weird graphics card designs.
They really need to do things like this more, Both GN and the companies making the computer parts. This would be perfect as the focal point of a "Cutesy Animal" build.

Came for the cat, was not disappointed.
Thank you, Gamers Nexus, I am a Chinese gamer and I don't even know about this cute card😂
谢谢你啊。。。
5:15 "The pink purple breathing lamp... it does glow"
HELL YEAH!
Radeon RX 580 2048sp is basically a Radeon RX 570 just rebranded
Can't wait for the industry to adopt the cute aesthetic so I can finally have a decent reason to build a new pc
"use code savewangwang"... pauses video; instant like.
Steve is having improvements in speaking Chinese.
I can understand what he says instantly.
Sero3 yeah but I wouldn't pronounce 'hen' as 'han'...
Did not pronounce it as han...
Gamers Nexus it's ok Steve, must be the speakers of my old ipad 2 then hehe
"... and that's how the next decade lead to interchangeable faceplates for vertical video cards. "
That would be so much better I miss the old shrouds and RGB puke isnt a good replacement
I need this. Been complaining about how dumb GPUs look, and this is what I need.
This is a funny video. When I went to AliExpress, they show the GPU-Z for the card and it is almost Identical to the MSI RX 570 ARMOR 8G OC 8GB that I have in my old pc. You can currently buy an 8gb RX 570 for around $140 to $150. So, the Yeston card is about a $50 premium for the just for the style. But, I can see it would be good for a 8 or 10 year old girl's dream build... again loved the video, it is always good to keep things fun and interesting.
i can see young children (specially girls) loving this gpu for thier 1st build, if thye are old enough for you to give them one.
I'm a 25-year-old man, and I certainly prefer this gpu over models that resemble crashed spaceships.
I can tell you that more adult men would buy it than young children
@@binal3d570 and the brony fandom proves that as a fact
@@binal3d570 definitely!
It’s funny that you guys actually looked at this card after I looked all over TH-cam for reviews on Yeston cards after stumbling upon this card on ebay while looking for a Red Devil 580. Awesome of you guys to look at this card and you’re right in pointing out that it would be nice to see some difference in style of cards. Even with rgb lighting most cards are still very aggressive and gamery looking. When I saw this card I instantly thought about someone trying to build a DVa style build, and the Japanese clouds would look great in a minimalistic style system. Hopefully something like this starts to make its way stateside.
Imagine a future where GPUs are also rated by their story and plot that they bring.
Thanks for the help about the existence of versions 2048SP and 2304SP!
That whole "gamer" look is horrible, I can't wait for it to be over.
If only, I wanted to gift my father with a mechanical keyboard (he works with typing all day and never used one), but literally not a single one exists in my country that isn't horribly "gamer" and barfing with LEDs and that doesn't cost a fortune. Brands are too high on 1% bath salts to care about interesting design.
The new 5700 cards like the asrock challenger isnt super gamery. It looks more like a race car gpu
@@ironoverheat465 cooler master if you guys have them, has some decent keyboards that looks normal
Iron Overheat fnaticgear is low cost and minimalistic. If you want to get rid of LEDs altogether then buy ducky or some other typist brands
My girl said she liked the card, and she normally wouldn't give 2 shits.
Yes, as much as it doesnt suit me being an older guy, I love this!
I would buy this in a heart beat if it was on anything newer nvidia. Hahaha. It's awesome! V2.0 should have a nyaaan cat edition and a screen on it lol. Shit the box quality looks better than my EVGA recent buy.
Yeston has a RX5600XT Cute Pet version now!
To bad is only a 2048sp. can't wait to see what yeston does with navi cards!
Loved how you showcased the CUTE PET with the kitties. I’ll purr-chase one with no regrets.
Someone really needs to lock down that Sanrio contract. I'd gladly replace my 1070Ti if I could get a ridiculous Hello Kitty card.
I will buy another rtx 2080 ti for more money, if it was hello kitty. You can convince me to pay almost all markup for "cute".
I would downgrade my 1080 for a Hello Kitty video card.
Saw this card on Ali a couple months ago wondered how it performed. Thanks GN.
The question is will more animal designs be available soon. I’m looking for a gator 🐊
yeston said they gonna have a entire animal line up
i'd grab one even if it is a blower design. Form over function, lol
What about a Panda bear? I'd really like a cute panda bear model.
I have a "Gigabyte RX 580 Gaming 8G" and I am satisfied with its performance, but it's nice to see a different design with more cheerful colors. Good video.
It reminds me of first 3dfx cards with cool stickers of anime girls, dragons, robots and demons. Hope it would come back one day
Can we just appreciate how GOOD the box looks?
I've seen this card on AliExpress several times, interesting that this is better than most "premium" cards on the market.
Would be a good card to make a pc for the GF. If one had one that is.
Love this community.
Thank you for always working your tail end off to deliver such informational videos!
You the true tech guru ;)
Gamers Nexus + cats?!?! Are you trying to break the internet?
It's already broken, because Snowball broke it.
Fun review and good points. Once performance is established, manufacturers can be more creative with design and aesthetics. Ask customers what they want.
I’m interested in either you, Linus or another big tech channel 3D printing your own shroud and showing how to make it and how effective it is
The shroud is mostly for aesthetics so it wouldn't really have a performance impact (unless it restricted airflow somehow).
Thanks for the hilarious and informative video! I remember years ago Asus made some video card cooler designs that looked like F1 Race Cars. It would be nice to see gpu vendors come up with more interesting cooler designs instead of the usual bricks.
_Linus Sebastian has entered the chat room._
Review the Yeston case that is designed for this card.
i've never seen steve smile so much in a video. it's contagious. he genuinely enjoyed making this video. weebs unite!
It was a very fun video to make. We needed something less serious.
So in translation, the savings code for Gamers Nexus store is "SAVE WOOF WOOF" which kinda sounds even funnier. 🤭😆🤣
Is it weird this makes me want to be a parent even more? Like imagine having a ~9 yr old daughter open a christmas box and this is in the computer on display, maybe play some minecraft with them after. It's not just me right?
Yeah it's just you
Nah it's not just you fam
PC gaming will be dead by then
@@flyingtanks9313 how
@@Tr6sher Because that would mean I'd need to find a partner first
9:41 yes. we need more metal.
you can't diminish the metal.
the metal will live on.
I'm not just gamer by lifestyle, I'm gamer by theme
If I were to travel back in time I'd take these with me, go to when the 580 first came out and start selling them just so I could watch the actual manufacturers realize that people want weird wacky yet functional cards. Then come to the changed future where Wang Wang was the start of a revolution in weird graphics card designs.
I love it! :D It's so outrageous it's awesome. That and a unicorn case would be a dream lol
omg and a panda cpu cooler
@@covalite I like how you're thinking :D
There is a pink pet-themed open air case that matches its styling, I believe it’s sold as a complete built.
Loved this video. Thanks for making it happen, Patrick!
I would legitimately do a full on "cute build" providing the thermals and performance were adequate.
I wonder if this thing would fit into the pink SilverStone SG13...
@@L-in-oleum www.atxcases.com/Cases/images/100/kitty/kitty-02.jpg
They really need to do things like this more, Both GN and the companies making the computer parts. This would be perfect as the focal point of a "Cutesy Animal" build.
I'm tired of all the RGB and bling but this cute thing is okay.
I think we can all agree that RGB is eye vomit.
1:24 that's some real impressive Chinese! Mad respect.
You're breathtaking!
I am surprised you didn't mention the RX570, which is what this card really is !!!
