And no way in hell do they need anywhere near 3x8pin connectors!! Just marketing bs as per.

Rumour said as much as 330W for custom models:
AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT expected to boost up to 3.1 GHz, 260-330W TBP depending on a model - VideoCardz.com
AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT can boost up to 3.1 GHz Chiphell leaker claims it will reach up to 330W TBP on custom models. Some enthusiasts prefer to compare graphics cards based on their power metrics. If a card consumes 300W, it is generally expected to compete with similar models from competitors...

Yes but an 8pin provides 150W and the slot itself upto 75W.
3x8pin is a marketing move, nothing more.

Look at the size of the coolers too. This is going to be clocked within an inch of it's life. Reminds me of the R9 290X.

Yup, this chip was originally touted as a 220W part!
lol at the entitlement on display. This was always a mid range GPU that was about 4070Ti in raster and RT and all we needed AMD was to tell us the price.
I get it, you are all disappointed but let’s get real here. AMD are releasing GPU with two year old mid tier performance and we always knew this to be the plan.
We also knew that AMD are total idiots and will most likely **** up the pricing. Though my only hope is that with the knowledge of where it performs, AMD simply cannot price it over the $500 7800 XT MSRP.
AMDs biggest problem is how the 5060 perform and and is priced. They are **** scared what Nvidia will do if they announce perf and price too soon.
Frankly if we get 4070Ti, or 7900 XT (with improved RT) at $500 it will be a great mid range GPU for the price.

I'll try explain, AMD committed to doing CES ,they don't have a strong line up, pricing is important for the 2 GPUs, they are also looking suspiciously like they are not ready for launch on the next 6 months. Setting the price wrong or too early has consequences.They had 2 choices and they chose chaos.

The 7900XTX used chiplets and a 384 bit memory controller,which didn't help with power consumption. I hope the aftermarket RX9070XT doesn't consume as much as a stock RX7900XTX!!

It's hard to believe amd are punting intel hard in the clackerbag when they do little redundant showcases like this. Basically they said "yeah we have this and we have that, but we're not giving you a release date or price, get it up ye, yours truly -AMD".
I'd love a tech journo to hardball Lisa and ask what drugs the marketing department are on and why does the gpu division consist of a one trick pony of undercutting the competition by a fiver. It's not good enough, in fact, its woeful. Lisa Su wasn't expected to be there and after this farce its hardly surprising some other random AMD guy got told to go out and dance on a stage for 45 mins, randomly skipping from one topic to another before dropping his kecks and mooning the audience as the lights went down.

Thought it was just CDMA(instinct) cards that was doing chiplets?

The RX7900 and RX7800 series use chiplets. A central GCD and multiple MCDs.
Reading that the release seems they are waiting on Nvidia to show their hand first.
