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

[Jed Shields]

2 models at high £500, the rest high £600. WIll that be the ratio after the initial batch has been sold, or are the two £500+ models the only ones with a discount?

 

[Tythus]

2 PM i think...

wow nice results eh?

 

[Shaolin Chicken]

I see the prices have been updated on ocuk. I was hoping the Taichi would be around £649

Agreed, would have been much better.

 

[adidan]

Just wish the non XT was better value as it's pretty much all I need at the moment and a better fit for my case.

Such a short upselling jump to the XT...

 

[Joxeon]

The 9070 looks barely any better than a 5070 while coming in at the same MSRP.

 

[Doop!]

Can't really see the point in the 9070 non XT with the £50 price gap

 

[Besty]

 

[humbug]

Yes, i think AMD got this one right, great card, great price, i hope AMD get their deserved rewards for this, i hope this is the start of AMD's Ryzen in the GPU space.

The 9070 looks barely any better than a 5070 while coming in at the same MSRP.

Its faster in both rasterised and RT performance,with 33% more VRAM and similar power consumption.

The fact it has 33% more VRAM itself makes it much better value. It could do with being closer to $500, but the RTX5070 being so awful and being in short supply meant AMD has decided to push the RX9070XT more!

It wouldn't surprise me if we see an RX9070GRE 12GB at under £500.

 

[hornetstinger]

Similar to 5070 ti?

So if I can get the pulse at £570 that's ok.

I have a feeling won't be able to order one

 

[MCFC_ANDY]

After seeing reviews I was hoping for a little more to justify the price. I think the xt could struggle after the initial FOMO buying dies off with the £600 price tag. I'm sitting in my hands for couple of months and then look to upgrade my 3070

 

[greatash]

Pulse and Reaper at £570 look very nice. Shame to see the rest creeping up to the £700+ mark, might as well get a 5070ti at that point

 

[Joxeon]

Yes, i think AMD got this one right, great card, great price, i hope AMD get their deserved rewards for this, i hope this is the start of AMD's Ryzen in the GPU space.

Really, you think $600 for 4070ti super performance is great when last gen AMD nailed 3080 performance at $500 and lost marketshare?

 

[Angilion]

Probably not for me. I like to look at detailed reviews of different models before making a decision. "Race the bots and scalpers to buy immediately or pay 20% extra!" doesn't appeal to me at all. It's not as though I really need to replace my 7800XT. Guess I'll have a look in a month and see what the situation is.

 

[uscool]

If you can get pulse at MSRP that's decent much better deal from what's currently available, rest of the AIB cards look over priced not worth the premium imo

Guess I'll be sticking with the 3080

 

[MCFC_ANDY]

That power draw isn't great either

 

[ElliorR]

For some reason I thought they went on sale today at 1400, 2pm if any Americans are reading this, and even though the OcUK website was working fine, I thought they were all sold already.

I'm going to upgrade my PC after the summer.

yeah the pulse £570 is my absolute max, agree the £90-£100 extra for OC versions isn't worth it.

 

[subbytna]

You're on to something here.

I remember the 50 series prices

5090 : £25000 : £2500 (real target)
5080 : £11999 : £1200 (real target)

Current pricing for the RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT ~ 6.5K

Target £650 and £700

Called it.....

There's no bad GPU's, only bad pricing.
