The Radeon RX 9070 Series, a new generation of GPUs based on the RDNA 4 architecture that may or may not be officially unveiled by AMD as part of a major press conference later this month, will be available for purchase beginning in early March, delivering not only better ray tracing performance, but also support for AI-powered upscaling as part of AMD's aim of bringing high-quality 4K gaming to mainstream players, according to new comments that Dr. Lisa Su (Chair and Chief Executive Officer at AMD) shared during an earnings call presentation yesterday for its fourth quarter and full year 2024 financial results.

I wonder if the performance boost is focused on RT and AI kind of like the 5000 series.
 
I would suspect AMD will try every smoke and mirrors trick they have to show some improvement. Nvidia has pushed out, so far, disappointing improvements vs RTX 4000s (excepting maybe the 5090, but who knows since you cant buy one) and they are the leader by far. Nvidia has quoted their "improvements" many times by using DLSS4 and MultiFrameGen data.....or as some say:"fake frames".
AMD better hope they have something good, or there are many saying the Radeon could simply disappear. If they are pointing at the "mainstream" gamers and Creators, this means they absolutely will need to dominate the RTX 5070 and 5070Ti both in price and performance, which is going to be a tall order.
It's so bizarre, AMD is really exploiting the CPU side of things, but can't make a GPU to save their lives.
 
Ideally the new cards can out perform an 4080 and be on par with a 5080 for MUCH less.
 
If they're targeting creators they better have encoding performance on par with the NVENC capabilities of the 5070 Ti. That's been the biggest thing pushing people to Nvidia. NVENC H.264 works amazingly well for a single PC setup streaming to Twitch/YT. While AMD's solution is lack luster or downright not good at all for fast paced gaming, requiring the use of a dual PC stream setup.
 
They'd sell me one.

Well, I'd actually be able to find one in stock, probably!
They're launching it. Says so right there on that piece of paper. See? Right there! On the paper! Launched! :ROFLMAO:
