$849.99 USAMD's RDNA 4 lineup promised to deliver great gaming performance, a great set of features, and great value. The company has achieved these objectives with the 9070 and 9060 series, which is a big turnaround for Team Red. The sales have been strong, and today, we look at one of the strongest models based on the RX 9070 XT.
So, for today's review, we will be trying out the ASRock Radeon RX 9070 XT Taichi OC, which has an MSRP of $849.99 US. This is a $350 US premium over the $599.99 MSRP, which is expected given the supply and demand for the RDNA 4 lineup. This puts the card in the same price range as the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, so that should be the direct competition to the 9070 XT at the moment.
