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

Until they gut the Radeon product & marketing departments they will continue making the same mistakes. These people have demonstrated their incompetence over and over again, they're not all of a sudden going to smarten up and become winners. Lisa Su needs to find her courage and make big changes for AMD GPU.

retailer who has 9070XT and 9070 cards in stock provides some more information on the situation

He says there is a lot of uncertainty for him as these GPUs were originally supposed to go on sale on January 23rd.

He also reveals the original prices: the 9070XT had an MSRP of $899 and $749 for the 9070 non XT. He does not yet know what the new prices will be, which creates more uncertainty as to what happens next, I assume he's already paid for his stock.

From the prices alone you can see why AMD could not announce this at CES. $899 for the 9070XT is brutal, the 5070ti at $749 completely ruined it

It explains everything we saw though:
1.)The new naming strategy of RX9070(RTX5070) and RX9070XT(RTX5070TI)
2.)The huge cards,with huge coolers and large number of power connectors
3.)The sudden withdrawal of the launch. If AMD had priced these cards too low,they could simply have increased RRP at the last minute. But if they had priced them too high,they would need to allocate funds to try and support the launch.

So this is another Vega 56 with limited edition launch pricing now? It could be AMD PR is playing a sophisticated campaign of 4D Jebait like ATI did with the HD4870,but AMD did the RX7900XT when they got jebaited by an overpriced RTX4060 12GB,RTX4070TI 12GB.

See my post above. It could be they were planning $699 for the 9070 XT and Nvidia’s pricing caused a rethink as that is too close to win any market share.

I do agree that we are likely looking at 7800 XT to 9070
7900 GRE to 9070 XT

That should mean prices no more than $600 IMHO.

The RX9070 has to start at $500,otherwise they will be charging RX7900GRE pricing for the RX7800XT replacement.

It's insane these companies are now trying to push 60 series equivalent cards past £400. Because that is what an RX9060XT and RTX5060TI will become.
 
If the 9070 XT is 7900 XT <> 7900 XTX then the 9070 is 7900 GRE, or RTX 5070, with the 9070 at $750 what did AMD think Nvidia wanted to charge for the RTX 5070? Not the 5070 Ti, the RTX 5070, $900?

If that's so AMD really have lost the plot.
 
Yeah, agreed.

9070 a bit faster than the 5070 for $500 (I think max rather than start at).

9070 XT competes with the 5070Ti for $650 max (start at $600)
 
Triple A games companies must love these prices, AMD and Nvidia might be happy with margin but if you're spending 100s of millions on pushing state-of-the-art games you need volume to create the user base to make your money back or why bother

I don't belive this for a second. It would not have 70 in the name at such high prices.

We'll likely never know the real prices they were going to charge, so getting upset by them is a bit pointless.

When we have real performance data and pricing we can whinge appropriately.

Well realistically they can’t charge $750, so expect $650ish. Or if AMD are incredibly obtuse, then $700.

The 9070 could be $550 if it beats the 5070 and has more VRAM.
