The Radeon RX 9070 and Radeon RX 9070 XT, two of the first graphics cards for gamers based on AMD's new RDNA 4 architecture, were originally supposed to sell for $899 and $749, respectively, before red team got wind of the pricing that NVIDIA had decided upon for its GeForce RTX 50 "Blackwell" Series, according to a new video from a Bulgarian retailer, one in which the host explains how board partners and retailers already have the Radeon RX 9070 Series in stock but can't sell them due to an extended embargo that AMD has set so it can implement a new pricing and announcement strategy.

That's going to be a payment to AIB's and then through to the retail channels especially if prices are considerably lower.

Needses some benches, that is for sure. When allowed of course.

I dont see this generation flying for me, green, red or blue. Not enough Vram at a price I can eat without choking on it.

I am very interested in how well they have improved the RT performance.

How much vram do games need at 4k anyways? Is 16gb enough and 24gb a luxury?

Depends on the title most 16 gig is fine a few outliers can eclipse that with everything maxed.

Hot Take - 16GB VRAM is fine for the next 2 years.
