AMD’s rollout of its upcoming graphics card has been bizarre. We anticipated to get all the small print at CES, however have been simply left with teases. Then these playing cards have been anticipated to launch across the time of the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 however pushed again to March. Now we’re resulting from lastly discover out extra concerning the AMD Radeon RX 9070 collection and its fancy RDNA 4 structure on February 28.
Set to air at 8 AM EST / 5 AM PT on the AMD Gaming YouTube channel, the RX 9070 dwell stream goes to provide extra data on the playing cards which can be confirmed to launch in early March.
With the RTX 5070 Ti set to launch on February 20 and RTX 5070 launching on March 5, the RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT graphics playing cards will seemingly launch simply after these two Nvidia playing cards.
These might be AMD’s first graphics playing cards to make use of the RDNA 4 microarchitecture so there’s numerous hype and/or hypothesis surrounding them. Notably, these playing cards are reportedly concentrating on the extra midrange market so will not be a alternative for that RTX 5090 card you have been on the lookout for.
They may, nevertheless, sway you away from the cheaper 50-series playing cards if the dwell stream and subsequent launch recommend RDNA 4 has led to large efficiency beneficial properties.
Within the wake of Nvidia’s card promoting out practically instantaneously, AMD’s David McAfee introduced AMD is “planning to have a large assortment of playing cards out there globally for its launch in March.”
We all know surprisingly little about AMD’s subsequent set of graphics playing cards proper now however a current leak suggests the AMD RX 9070 XT can run the most recent Monster Hunter Wilds benchmarking instrument at 211.7 common fps, which is mighty spectacular.
That is at 1080p with body gen enabled however spectacular nonetheless. If these stats bore out in actual assessments, and clients can really get them on cabinets, AMD might have a shock hit on its palms.
I do know I simply hope the worth is correct to compete, and an FSR enchancment would not go amiss.
