Unwanted bad news for gamers: AMD may price the RX 9070 XT at a far from attractive rate

[Redaktion]

AMD's upcoming Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 cards have been named in some perturbing price-related leaks. While the sources could be either placeholder guesses or simply inaccurate, there are concerns that unattractive pricing from AMD for the RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 would leave the cards "dead on arrival".

Nvidia has been ruling news with [...] good (general performance) and bad (price gouging)

Not a single review (out of around 15 i read) was positive on performance. The only positive was on absolute perf of the 5090, but always it was lamented that it was less efficient than the 4090.

It's not less efficient than the 4090. At the same 450W power it still is about 5-7% stronger. It's just weak progress. 5080 however is more efficient IIRC
