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

I'll NEVER pay £700 for this tier of GPU.

Other users have made similar comments and still gone against it.

So many 3090 users who went on about vram now have a 5080. Also boomstick said he wasn't getting a 5070Ti but buckled a few days later. Lol.

I agree with you 70 class should be no more than £500 as was the 7800XT and the 6700XT before that. (5700XT if corrected for inflation be about the same).

Your decision last gen for a cheap 70ti seems to be working out well! The price you paid is OK for a 70ti class card and we all need to keep reminding the purveyors of fine gpu wine that our wallets stop at £500!

It’s amazing how in this rumour thread we have gone from £450 to £499 to £549 to £599 to £649 to £699 and now £749 for the price of the 9070XT lol.

Probably a result of both seeing how atrocious the pricing of the 5000 series is and also realising with increasing likelyhood that AMD will fall flat on it's face, with this pricing.

1 week to go.

This thread is an emotional rollercoaster.

This thread has more twists and turns than a drama mystery movie set in a maze.
I'll be glad for this all to be over, as we all resign ourselves to the death of affordable GPUs.

Those 'others' are not me though. I paid £445 for my 3060Ti back in 2023 and thought that was way too much but as I got £145 back from selling my 1660 Super it didnt seem so bad.

£550 is my uppermost limit and even then, thats because I hope to claw some cash back with selling this Ti.

You have a wild imagination sir

And no I did not thump my PC desk, its tempered glass that may shatter if I thump it in the wrong place

If it’s not crypto, it’s AI bumping up prices and demand. I have just about had enough of this greed. I just wish GPUs would be used just for playing games or designing things nothing else.

What happened to Lisa Su wanting the best price/performance cards for gamers?

9070XT needs to be max £549- please listen to your loyal fan base AMD.

AMD may not have anything that fits your budget unfortunately

You prefer the AMD are not a charity, £50 cheaper what more do want posts?

 

[uscool]

Flip flopping again I can't see £600 with how bad Nvidia releases are , now I think it'll be £650-£700 for the XT

It would break up the monotony!

We will all be out of our misery in 7 days.

Though possibly be in a whole new kind of misery

Isn't that the presentation, could get hyped with performance and pricing , than get screwed again once it goes on sale ?

Likely to be the case.

Nvidia 5070 Ti performs better than alleged AMD 9070 XT in leaked benchmark

Nvidia's RTX 5070 Ti 3DMark benchmark performance figures have leaked, and we have compared them to AMD's supposed 9070 XT.

www.neowin.net

I would be quite happy with that performance in both RT and raster on the 9700xt just need the price

That's about where i would have expected it.

The 9070 XT has 7% more shaders / RT cores and at 2.7Ghz an 11% higher clock vs the 7800XT +18% more GPU for +60% RT, can't remember if it was a leak or if AMD said this but RDNA 4 was supposed to be 50% faster per RT core, that just about adds up, its quite an impressive gain, the 9070 XT is significantly faster in RT than the 4070 Ti in This RT benchmark.
I don't think the 5070 will be any faster with RT even in Cyberpunk now, that is a big step for AMD. the 4070 is 20% faster than the 7800 XT.

Again its just price....

 

[humbug]

For those interesting the 5070 Ti is 20% faster in this RT benchmark than the 9070 XT, 20%.
