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

Gigabyte and Powercolor have been updated now too.

Looks like there won't be any £599 cards from OCUK. Prices range from £630ish to £750ish.

The Nitro+ is looking pretty great with these prices TBH.

There are a couple of 9070s below £5500, so sub-£550 pricing on these? An ~£80 gap against the cheaper XT models gives it some appeal...

Yeh, Sapphire Pulse for £629 and Pure for £649.

Bit above RRP unfortunately. Without gouging they should probably be £579 and £599/£609 or something respectively.

Id like the Pure personally as it matches my rig's colour scheme, so its good to see its only going to be a little bit above rrp/the pulse.

Nice. Here's a quick screengrab of the XTs that have been adjusted so far...

For £650 upwards to £800 for a 9070XT not really disrupting the market and not going to result in taking significant market share.

I was a ditherer thinking about upgrading from 7800xt but now thinking even £650 is beyond my reach. Also if I was considering £650-800 I’d want at least 20gb vram. I must have got a good deal then for just over £400 for a mid range card.

In fairness, you will probably be able to get a proper RRP, sub £600 one from elsewhere.

Also, i imagine OCUK's prices will settle down after the launch hype wears off and stock builds up.

It also depends on what card you're looking at.

If you want MSRP sure prices are bad, but if you are looking at Tier 1 card the best a brand produces it only being 100 above MSRP (Nitro X) is a bloody good price.
 
Is it worth the upgrade from a 7900 GRE to a 7900XT pulse, the extra 4GB is good i guess, but im betting most people would say keep your GRE?

I wasn't referring to the prices themselves more the prices being worked out from the place holders, personally I am really happy if the nitro comes in at 699, I had budgeted 800.

If the reviews are good tomorrow then 700 for a card that pretty much matches a 4080 but is a good quality AIB and keeps me in the Radeon software I am a happy man
