Now, I had heard about graphics cards that smelled like cartoon heroes, and I know there have been GPUs with incredible and sometimes quite horrific designs (at least on the GPU packaging). This is the first GPU with a pink PCB, and frankly, it's gorgeous.

The listing calls it a "cherry blossom blizzard," and it's clear that this card was designed to resemble cherry blossoms in a snowstorm. Harukaze5719 tweeted "Pink PCB" to share this news. I salute them for getting right to the point.

As Videocardz points out, the company apparently had to organize a dedicated production line and suppliers just for the special pink PCB. The small cutout of the faceplate, which gives the impression of a delicate, three-dimensional cherry blossom petal, makes it clear why Zephyr went to such lengths.

There have been pink graphics cards in the past; Galax's RTX 2080 Super EX Pink Edition featured a white PCB and a frosty transparent fan. However, this design is rather gaudy, and there is something more subtle about Sakura & Snow that speaks to the poet within.

Of course, like most cool GPU designs, Zephyr's Sakura & Snow GeForce RTX 3060 is unlikely to make it to the US market. Perhaps a Chinese friend can help you get one, but at this point I wouldn't necessarily recommend buying an RTX 3060.

I have an excuse for this.
