Yep, its a jokeI’ve got a feeling the EU prices will be north of 1100 Euro. If you’re determined to spend that much on a 9070 XT then you may as well pay 100 Euro more and get a 5070 Ti.

Weirdly the 4K average is a lot closer to the 4080. I presume it's some kind of memory bandwith constraint, I'm no expert.
And yes these benches are from Hardware Unboxed.

Fair enough, but I play everything in 4K on my 7900XT and it has never broke a sweat. This is a 4K card.Yeah, they perform better in 4k but this data is not that relevant to most gamers. Hardly anyone (outside of 4090/5090 users) play at native 4k, so 1440p data is far closer to resolutions people will be using with DLSS/FSR4 (1080p, ~1200p, 1440p).
it's based what game you playing. Some my friends playing 4k native on 7800XT + AFMFHardly anyone (outside of 4090/5090 users) play at native 4k
Which is possible if you buy a founders edition.
There are no 5070s.No founders edition for 5070 and 5070 Ti (right?)
I doubt it's sold out.This shit was sold before they ever ticked the websites over. I had a feeling when there were no pre-orders that this shit was sold off in backroom deals.
The "comp. Value" on that card is a fucking travesty, especially running "a deal" on a newly released product.GPUs finally showed up on best buy this morning. And....

I managed to get one. And I dilly dallied signing in to Paypal Credit for several minutes.Whelp I am fucking done.
Maybe Black Friday 2026 when the card is almost two years old.

The Best Buy XFX was gone so fast that the in-stock notification I set never popped.I got an order through at Newegg for Powercolor Reaper within the first minute, they confirmed it a few minutes later with a shipping date of 3/11, then 5min. later they cancelled it due to insufficient stock. (referring to Newegg's website order menu).
Bestbuy's XFX msrp model was sold out within 1sec.(clicked first second, into queue, sold out by 30sec.).
Total paper launch.

Though I don't see any for 550 or 599 or whatever.
Now the companies selling the cards are the scalpers... shameful.
Considering the price, it's good enough, I suppose. AMD has addressed the biggest issues (RT performance and FSR image quality), so finally AMD folks will not be missing much, but still, if I had to choose between the 9070XT and Nvidia's GPUs, I would still choose Nvidia. The 9070XT only wins on price, so if the AMD card ends up costing similar to the RTX5070ti then the AMD card doesn't make any sense, because the 5070ti is better at pretty much everything.Yeah, as always with AMD some people were too optimistic. BUT I think overall 9070XT is a very good GPU and worth buying IF the price is right.
but between 5070 and 9070 is obvious choice unless you need CUDAif the AMD card ends up costing similar to the RTX5070ti
theyre scalping amd gpus now. team red was supposed to be the irrelevant safe haven & Nvidia the scalper's paradise. wtf
