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

This is not the point. AMD said MSRP wasn’t fake, it clearly was. This is not all on the retailers.

It was a $50 rebate to hit msrp which was like £40 when the card released, current cheapest models on here are £80 quid above launch price yet the dollar has lost about £40-50 of the msrp price, someone is banking the difference my bets are on aib/retailers due to continuing demand.

9070 aint shift and the xt sales have slowed down big time, I guess the 5070 ti at £40 more is a better buy for most people. AMD wanting to grow market share is BS.

Honest question as I’ve not paid much attention to NV current cards/prices - can the 5070ti genuinely be had for 40 quid more than 9070xt’s are currently selling for? Madness if true as AMD need a more compelling reason than a 40 quid price differential to get folk to buy the xt over a ti - just my opinion of course as 600 quid gpus aren’t where my money goes so neither are aimed at me.

The only way to explain this is that the MSRP, which is set by AMD is a lie.
No, they i think originally were meant to be $650, a lot of retailers bought stock months ago, including OCUK; i have no doubt at that $650 MSRP, that's what the rebates are for and its why they are; to quote Gibbo "limited" its only to cover those GPU's bought by retailers at the original $650 MSRP, new batches would be, i think bought at the new $600 MSRP, so no need for rebates on those.

No, that's wrong, what i did was quote Frank Azor on X saying more GPU's would be coming at the same MSRP as those initial batches, it was not me saying this, it was AMD.

As I said.
I have good memory, especially when people try to revise their own posting history

The 9070 is still a good buy, what else can you buy that's better at £600 and below? (I'd take a draw at a 7900XT mind)

Ultimately we will see when the steam hardware survey comes out for April and May. Apart from the initial stockpiling, The amount of 9070 and 9070 XT stock appearing in numbers at MSRP is lagging nvidia for their combined 5070/5070Ti numbers.

All 5070 Ti stock sells out within hours at MSRP. At least they are showing up. There are definitely thousands of 5070 Ti owners if not tens of thousands in the UK.

AMD took a massive lead at launch, but have had poor supply since. I can understand that they probably didnt reserve supply capacity to try and take anything more than 20% of the market, as it would be a massive risk to try and take 50%.

I said I would post this once it came out since people ridiculed me here.


9070 not on the list yet. 0.18% share required to be on the all cards list.

I've not had a steam survey request since 2021. It's not a hugely accurate metric.

Because you weren't surveyed?

Do you have a global survey that's better, or should we just trust you that AMD have a high market share? The steam survey is always correlated to actual market share.

I also predicted there would be denial within this echo chamber thread.

It's not even hard to see why this has occurred. AMD stock has been awful and even with prices cuts from £700 cards, they are still way above MSRP.

4060 laptop GPU top of the list at 4.99% - didn't realise they were so popular

Supply and demand dear boy. As soon as demand drops off the prices will fall.

Or supply is low. You know, the thing that actually lines up with the data.

You have any contra evidence my friend?

This is Vega all over again. Fake MSRP never to be seen again (okay maybe in 12 months).

Demand however is high. So that means prices go up. It’s a lovely day. Get outside pour yourself a nice gin and enjoy the day.

Lol, what's with these dismissive comments when I've presented evidence and then calling out the dismissive comments of the evidence.

I just like being right (so far). No anger.

The outcome here has been obvious for weeks.

Depends on what you are counting. They currently have 9070 XT available. Just not anywhere close to MSRP with the Nitro+.

What happened to this.
