*** The AMD RDNA 4 Rumour Mill ***

He's not right in the European market. The 5070Ti is typically 800-900 right now. Hell, look at OCuK's prices - £800-1000! Assuming AMD succeed in coming out around £600, they're closer to 25-33% cheaper or even more, £200-400!! Much more than the normal Nvidia - £50.

Honestly, I'd have loved for the card to be priced lower, but given the performance uplift over the 7800XT/7900GRE, these seem to be priced FAIRLY, and much better value than anything from Nvidia.

These should actually have a chance of selling really well, unless Nvidia do some major price drops, especially if thanks to the backlog of stocking, they're actually in decent stock in coming months, unlike Nvidia cards.

Can anyone understand why AMD board partners are even going to bother with premium/higher end 9070s??

$50 difference means fitting in different models will be almost impossible without reaching the low end 9070xt price....

...and who are the people that would spend more money on a 9070 with a slightly better cooler or some lights, than a 9070xt??

There's always someone who'll buy for looks/noise over performance.

give it a couple of months and those prices will creep apart more. probably looking at £650-675 for a top XT AIB model. which for a card marketed against the GRE is expensive.

All y'all are smoking something I'd like. You guys do this every time and are hugely optimistic on actual retail pricing.

No way in heaven OCUK will have any 9070xt top-tier models for sale for anything under £750. Who honestly here thinks they'll get a Nitro or Red Devil for under £750... show of hands please. It ain't happening - no way, no how.

looks good, though £600 for a GPU is still a lot of cash!

i could be tempted over my 3080FE, but they are all pretty massive. The Powercolor reaper looks ok size wise at 304 x 127 x 42 mm and should fit in the Fractal Terra i have but i'd want to know the warranty period though, nothing on OCUK currently.
 
Ok, so watched both Steve's videos and skimmed though comments in here.

The 9070XT is about $50 more than I would have liked to have seen. But still good all things considered.

The 9070 on the other hand should have been $499 at most for this to be considered a big win for AMD. Not sure what they were thinking there.

Based on what I have seen and what Gibbo said I can see most the 9070XT's selling for £650.

Let's wait and see reviews and how well they did with FSR4 will be a big factor imo. Steve at HUB made it sound promising which is good.

Right now I would say they have avoided scoring a own goal which makes big a change. Not quite an overhead kick I wanted to see. Closer to what @Ayahuasca said, it bounced of both posts before going in.

@CAT-THE-FIFTH @MyBrainz did they do enough to get your money lads? That there is a big test on how well they did imo. If they can get both your money they will have actually done quite well :D

you're assuming I'd buy from OCUK.

That's what I'm expecting, or zero 599 stock at all to push people towards the more expensive cards. Really wouldn't surprise me if retailers hold back the cheaper cards to flog the more expensive ones first.

They’ll bung all the cheaper cards into prebuilds where it’s easier to hide a price hike.

AMD can't really compete with Nvidia on the ML/AI angle due to CUDA being such an integral part of most out of the box pipelines. Gaming is all they have

That's absolutely not true, they are doing very well in enterprise, which is by far their main source of income and growing up rapidly quarter to quarter. Just like with Nvidia, gaming is only about 7% of their revenue. I suggest you just check financial reports next time before writing rubbish. :)

You answered your own question right here. There are always going to be end users that don't mind spending that extra £25 to £75 to get the PCB, shroud, lighting in their preferred colours.
