MSRP im guessing would be around 399-499 for 9700 (tho reality be 600), the 9700xt be like 599 - 699 but reality will be 899-1000. :/

UNLESS they used this time to stack shops well enough to not sell out in 2 seconds per shop. I.e made thousands of the boogers and has loads more on way to stores in march.

Depends. Are they pulling an Nvidia and comparing with FSR and/or framegen? Or is old-fashioned raw rasterisation performance?

The other thing is... if they are comparing it to the 7900GRE... it should be priced similar to that card. That 7900GRE was a $550 GPU, so that gives hope for the 9070XT to be priced similarly. I was originally gunning for a 9070 non-XT, hoping it would be below £500, but if AMD hit's this out of the park... I might be tempted.

It's a damn shame the pre-orders don't go live on 5th March. I have the day off for a comedy show (but will obviously be enjoying the live reaction to the reviews of these AMD GPUs too). Being at work the next day means less chance of being able to order one, if they will even be worth ordering.

says in the article its focused on native/RT performance not FSR or Frame gen, so thumbs up if thats true none of the Nvidia BS

I am hoping the RX9070 non-XT is under £500 to replace the RX7800XT. However,Nvidia playing all it's pricing games does not help us!
 
Need to apply ray reconstruction and put it to good use!

Could be Radeons ryzen moment if they get price and availability right. If they do these will go fast. No wonder nvidia delayed the 5070, it's going to get humiliated by a product with hopefully similar price.

You mean the 4090 killer?

In the Videocardz article it says AMD is showing native results only.

There's speculation that the comparison with the 7900GRE is because they might be pricing it at that level which is $549. That would be pretty amazing if true and a killer blow to the 5070 and the 5070Ti.
AMD is allowing these early leaks to destroy the 5070 Ti's hype. Any sane person would hold off buying a 5070Ti for £800+ but I bet many hardcore fanboys like to pay over the odds for a mediocre card.

The rumours look like they were all true - RT perf was what killed RDNA3 in averages and it looks like they've cracked that.

No doubt in my mind that they're comparing it with the GRE for market positioning. +42% for a similar MSRP? Total winner. I'll buy one no question.

Of course the marketing speak is probably a little overblown, but even if independent reviews show about 35% (likely) then that's still a win.

Update the graph!

Yeah. My only concern now is how popular these may be. I was planning a build in march but in all honesty I can wait until June if needs be.

My gre and 5900x are plodding on quite happily for the time being. I guess we will see how much stock there is.
