AMD Radeon RX 9070 - The More Efficient RDNA 4

The AMD Radeon RX 9070 GPU features a cut-down Navi 48 (XL) SKU with a total of 56 compute units or 4096 cores. In addition to the CUs, it features 128 ROPS, 56 ray tracing accelerators, and 128 hardware AI accelerators. The reference GPU is clocked at up to 2970 MHz so we can expect over 3 GHz factory overclocks. The TBP is maintained at 220W, which is 25W lower than the Radeon RX 7700 XT.

On the memory front, the card comes with the same 16 GB of GDDR6 memory operating at 20 Gbps across a 256-bit wide bus interface. This provides the card with 640 GB/s of total bandwidth, but there's also 64 MB of 3rd Gen Infinity Cache, which should also deliver higher available bandwidth to the GPU. It also features PCIe 5.0 x16 functionality. You can check out our preview of the performance for both cards here.

The Pricing & Availability

In terms of pricing, the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT will retail for $599 US, which puts it between the RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti (at MSRP). This is $100 US higher than the $499 US store price of the RX 7900 GRE at the moment and the RX 9070 will retail for $549 US, which is the same price as the RTX 5070, but the RDNA 4 offering comes with more VRAM (16 GB vs 12 GB) and should be great competition.

Availability of both cards is expected today at various retail outlets and several AIB models will be available from partners such as ACER, ASUS, ASRock, Gigabyte, PowerColor, Sapphire, XFX, Yeston and Vastarmor.

The initial stock of AMD's Radeon RX 9070 XT & RX 9070 looks to be ample with several cards being priced at MSRP, though there are reports from certain retailers that MSRPs will only apply to early stock batches, and we might see higher prices once this supply is extinguished. So we have to wait a few days to see if AMD can provide a decent amount of stock to gamers who have been looking forward to buying their new RDNA 4 lineups.
