At least monitors have come down in price a lot and quality has improved massively. From merely a couple £500+ 1440p144Hz with IPS bleed and issues to a fraction of the price for vastly better quality screens or better performing OLEDs for the price of a 'mainstream/mid-range' GPU nowadays. Depends on what sort of screen one is looking for, for these GPUs a decent 4k IPS can be had for around £400 or cheaper for a 1440p with silly high refresh rates. Or just go a few hundred quid more for an OLED, which I hear makes a big difference to image quality.
I mean the specs and rumours make the 5070 sound like it might not be able to beat a 4070 Super.
My build is black and red, so I'm looking at the sapphire pulse, but if they cheap enough I might be tempted into the Powercolour red devil
9070 and 9070XT have the same amount of shaders? Only difference is clock speed?
We been going around in this circle since Friday. The numbers are place holders. Some might be correct, but there's a good chance they just copied and pasted the ones they didn't know. Maybe these are correct, but likely they are not.

AMD Radeon RX 9070 specs listed by UK Retailer: RDNA4 may stick to PCIe 4.0x16 - VideoCardz.com
AMD RX 9070 Specs from OCUK There is reason to believe that the specifications listed by OverclockersUK are neither final nor confirmed by AMD. However, it is unusual for a retailer to publish such specifications unless they are based on semi-official information. According to OCUK, the Radeon...

Oh that would be hilarious!Maybe it'll be like the good old days and we can unlock a 9070 to be a 9070XT
The shader bios unlock was the old HD6950. It worked for me and all the card needed was a bit more airflow. The card is still going today in my mates PC, HIS is the brand.
Could be different power limits, different cooling, different amount of power connectors. Otherwise no point buying XT
Leaks were suggesting 64SM vs 56SM however this might have been changed by now.
Guys, please stop hyping... it's always better to maintain low expectations
I've tried mate, I really have

There have been some leaks, which are always treated as gospel truth when they are positive.
Has AMD said anything useful yet though?
We should always remember the absolute wet fart of their CES keynote (in regards to discrete GPUs anyway). Hopefully they've gone back to desperately wring some more performance from it. If it was a great product though, they'd have at least teased that.
Juust not really understanding this hype-train.

Nature abhors a vacuum.
We'll see, hopefully later today, if some of these rumours have legitimacy. If and its a big if, the whole launching next week thing is true, it makes sense that there would be tons of accurate leaks kicking around as it means the cards are kicking around just behind the scenes. But if there is no announcement, or the announcement says February or March availability. Then I suspect most of the leaks will have been completed nonsense.
Fingers crossed it's good, cos I got my gpu money burning a hole in my pocket.
There was a rumour for the 15'th, i get the feeling that's going to turn out a bust, but when tho? IMO we will have to wait until after RTX 50 series reviews, so some time in February for the paper launch.
AMD's new RX 9070 GPUs could be revealed as soon as this week, a new rumor suggests
RX 9070 & RX 9070 XT should finally be fully revealed by AMD soon. No date has been officially announced, but rumors point toward this week.www.pcguide.com
Don't think so, from Reddit:

I suggested the same earlier in this thread. AMD would unlock a massive goodwill achievement with enthusiasts if so.
I had a GF 6800 vanilla, a GTX 465, and an HD 290 (very first batch)... all basically unlocked to higher-tier GPUs.
