- The waiting of the AMD Rx 9070 Rx 9070
- The Radeon RX 9070 XT will begin at $ 599 and RX 9070 will be launched at $ 549
- Both GPU will be available on March 6, with the presentation of the RX 9060 series established for a later date
Finally, after months of waiting for the full Revelation of AMD of the GPU alignment of the RADEON RX 9000 series, we now have a suitable look at next -generation cards through the performance exhibition of Team Red and the price of RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 – Spoiler Alert: Fans can be in an affordable treatment.
AMD announced that the RADEON RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 will be launched on March 6, From $ 599 / around £ 570 / around au $ 960 and $ 549 / Around £ 520 / around AU $ 880respectively. Both GPU will come with 16 GB of VRM using PCIE 5.0 connectivity (just like NVIDIA Blackwell GPU). There will be no reference cards directly from AMD, only partner cards that will use the new RDNA 4 architecture of Team Red, which was built to provide a much better ray tracking and gross performance in the games.
As previously suggested, AMD states that the RADEON RX 9070 XT variant will be 42% faster than RX 7900 GRE in 4K native graphics configuration: supposedly coincides with the RTX 5070 TI of NVIDIA in several titles, but the most important thing is that the new AMD GPU claims to overcome Blackwell’s letter in Titles as Titles as Titles as Titles as Titles as Titles as Titles as Titles as Titles as Titles Call of Duty Black Ops 6which shows that it is 24% faster in Native 4K. The ray layout is also a prominent point in the graph (in the photo below), with a suggested cable on the RTX 5070 TI in 8%.
Of course, these statistics should be taken with a pinch of salt, since they come directly from AMD and do not take into account characteristics such as the new generation of multiple nvidia paintings, but it is still something impressive. The 9070 XT probably sits around 5-10% behind 5070 TI in real world tests, but for 20% less effective at the retail price.
We will wait for the reference points and real world statistics once the RX 9070 series launches on March 6. For now, AMD performance claims establish their XT variant in the Pole Position to become the GPU King budget at an affordable price of $ 599 compared to the shares of RTX 5070 TI of $ 749 / £ 729 / AU $ 1,509 (if you can find the MSP MSHGES current.
Now, I can eat my words with pleasure … nvidia, you have problems
MicroCenter -listed prices before AMD’s complete revelation suggested that Radeon RX 9070 XT would launch to $ 699, which feared it sounds true, but fortunately, it seems that they were really position markers (unless online retailers decide to inflate prices, that’s).
I am glad to say that Team Red has left me delighted with this revelation, since I have said that the GPU market desperately needs competition at this time: Nvidia can still lead the high range thanks to the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 RTX GPU, but how is a GPU Premium if you can’t even find one for sale?
If the Radeon RX 9070 XT at $ 599 ends up, or even simply approaching the coincidence, the RTX 5070 TI of Team Green as AMD affirms, and manages to overthrow the RX 7900 XTX of previous gen genx, then it is the King of the GPU of this generation. RDNA 4 promises significant improvements in all areas, especially with the layout of rays and FSR 4 (exclusive to the RDNA 4), according to what the network equipment presented, the FSR 4 performance mode reminded me of what I saw in NVIDIA with its new transformer model in DLSS 4.
Except for any potential problem of stocks, the RADEON RX 9070 series (specifically the XT variant) is emerging as the GPU of this generation, especially taking into account the launch problems of the RTX 5000 series of Team Green.
