AMD graphics cards are about to get more expensive as we enter 2026, with those seeking 16GB VRAM variants expected to pay a $40 premium, making the situation even more dire as we head into the worst memory shortage saga ever. Fortunately, a window of opportunity still exists for Amazon Prime members, where they can score a PowerColor Hellhound Radeon RX 9070 XT for $629.99 on the online retailer. Keep in mind that the latest price is only $30 higher than the graphics card’s original MSRP, and looking at the memory situation, you’d best act now.
With its rasterization capabilities higher than NVIDIA’s more expensive RTX 5070 Ti, the RX 9070 XT is the ultimate ‘price to performance’ GPU
The PowerColor Hellhound RX 9070 XT features a triple-fan cooling solution, with the GPU length measuring 327mm and thicker than your standard graphics card, so ensure that you have ample space in your chassis before purchasing. With its 16GB GDDR6 video memory, the RX 9070 XT is not just packing sufficient horsepower, but enough framebuffer to crack those visual settings to the limit while also gaming at 4K.
With games requiring more and more video memory to load their detailed textures, the RX 9070 XT offers adequate VRAM for its price. PowerColor has also incorporated PTM7950 on the GPU die, ensuring significantly better temperatures, with the beefy cooling solution dissipating heat effectively while also running quieter.
According to statistics recorded for graphics card shipments at German retailer MindFactory, the RTX 9070 XT crossed 1,000 units in sales, whereas its direct competitor, the RTX 5070 Ti, only managed 240, showcasing its popularity. We will remind readers that this deal is exclusive to Amazon Prime members, so if you want to have a crack at it, you’d best be a subscriber, and if you aren’t, it only takes a few steps to enroll you in the program.
We want to reiterate that any product that utilizes NAND flash or DRAM will become significantly more expensive in the coming weeks, with desktop and laptop RAM already out of reach for many buyers because of the massive price hike, so if there were ever a time to make a GPU upgrade, it would be now.
