The 9070 XT looks like it could be a contender, especially if you’re a Linux user. The non XT is a very much meh looking price to performance though.
They’ll probably drop the price soon. At $500 it might be worth looking at…
Yes, the classic AMD strategy to mess up launch-day reviews…
Don’t buy anything today
They don’t launch today
Holy crap.
I might finally be able to upgrade my Intel i7-4770 and Nvidia 1060…
I would buy a $499 9070 XT or $399 9070.
It is sad when we have to celebrate $599 as “AMD not being greedy”.
I can’t find anything about the cost for them to produce each unit, ya got some inside info you wanna share?
I do not have info like that, just lamenting that manufacturers (not just AMD) are raising prices of their tiers. The GTX 1070 launched in 2016 for USD 379, GTX 1070 Ti in 2017 for 399. Adjusted for inflation, they are $506 & $522 in 2025 dollars, so expecting there are still some room for reduction, even if manufacturing costs might have risen quicker than inflation, for the $599 price is not unreasonable IMHO.
