Game developers are going way too heavy on intense graphic visuals for fast pace games, where you wouldn't be able to really see the cool stuff unless you stop moving and look at the scenery. In return, you have to spend at least $5,000 for a new build that can hopefully get you over 100 fps on high settings, ray tracing, etc. Nvidia 5000 series are horrible GPU's. There's no real technological advancement because, you spend 25% more, use 25% more power, it gets 25% hotter, for 20-25% more frames This is not new technology for gaming. The 4000 series was a solid jump compared to the 3000 series.
Hopefully AMD hits it right and would love to see Intel's next Gen GPU's. Hopefully they start to catch up, which I'm hoping for them to do so, because we all need it after what's been happening.

is this the point in time where AMD starts to turn it around on their gpus
as long as they have stock and there isn't any major problems with the card.....yea it seems like this will do quite well.
isn't it crazy that the 9070 xt is gonna be pulling like 30% higher then the 7900 gre the 7900xt is 18% faster then the 7900 gre.
the 9070 xt is very close to a 7900 xtx on the high end (look at the top % increase), however the price is 60% of a 7900 xtx.
like for real this might actually be the turning point for amd gpu's. certainly wont reflect right away or even half a year from now but this seems like a tipping point.
amd also need to get into more prebuilts as that's how nivida has kept it's market share so high over the years.

I'm sure I'm in the minority here, but these aren't priced low enough for me to not consider nvidia if I can get nvidia at msrp, and I have a feeling nvidia is going to get aggressive on pricing so the msrp cards can actually exist in meaningful quantity. I would pay $150 more for a 5070 TI, because nvidias historically innovated their products and had the better user experience. Equaling the 5070 Ti for $150 less with worse features and software just isn't worth it to me. $200 Mentally that's a different barrier. To me these should have been $450 and $550.

Thanks for the educative video. As new investor, it's important to remember that investing and trading require more than just technical analysis skills. Discipline and emotional maturity play a significant role in achieving success. It's wise to keep in mind the adage of time in the market vs. timing the market, as this mentality can help you weather market volatility. With insights of Kerrie Farrell and my commitment to learning and growth, I've been increasing my earnings in just a few months. Keep up the good work...

meh its close to what i was hoping for a $450-$550 range now its going to come down to performance. At those prices the performance the 9070 ( Non XT ) HAS to beat the 5070 ( Non-Ti ) and the XT needs to be close to the 5070 Ti for it to be a success. We know the 5070 ( Non-Ti ) is just a XX60 card thats been bumped up in the skew to bring in more money from what should be a sub $400 dollar card so if its not beating that card this is another failed chance by AMD.

im running a lenovo legion pro 7 with the 4080 mobile card.. i feel like this brand new next gen card is going to almost be on par with my 80series last gen card thats hamstrung by its laptop life.. the price is trending down so hard to argue with that but i mean its not a good sign when theyre comparing their performance to a 3080 which performs on par with my 4080mobile, and both of which get blown out of the water by a 4070ti desktop card

What I wanted to see in UDNA and newer based GPUs is minor revision of naming schemes again, emphasizing gaming (raster and ray traced) and AI can be friends together, as well as to make Radeon Pro drivers available on gaming GPUs as well. Maybe next generation returning to higher end shall bear the name AI as well. It shall be provisionally named Radeon AI RX 480XT in a unified Radeon AI branding, in the way Ryzen AI got its name

0:38 And then they decided 'nvm we're not gonna say that on stage because we just found out Nvidia's price or something and decided NOT TO.'
They went back to the drawing board after Nvidia announced the card that everything pointed to it being a 70-class as the 5080.
AMD scrambled HARD for over 2 months to nerf it, to get as much money for selling the LEAST amount of hardware possible.

If you own a 7900xt or xtx you don't need to upgrade. To anyone else a gen or two behind then this is an amazing upgrade at a great price. Im excited for the Gpu that comes after the 9070xt the gen after as the Ai model will be more adopted and improved and hopefully have a larger vram. I'll stick with my 7900xt for a couple more years and get whatever Amd brings out after this new gen

Well we now know the Sapphire Pulse will be the MSRP cards and sapphire is known to keep those in stock. The Sapphire Nitro 9070 will likely be a 599-629.99 card and the Nitro 9070 XT will likely be a $649.99-699 card. If they make a Toxic version that will likely be $749-779.99. So anybody looking to buy at MSRP then the Sapphire Pulse is the card to get.

The RX 5700 and 5700 XT where also $50 apart at launch. Then there was the mentioned 7900 XT and 7900 XTX which $100 apart at lauch and HW Unboxed's testing had the more expensive XTX as a better value, which is opposite to how product stacks usually work.
AMD seems to have a wierd thing for overly close procucts at the top of their product stack

So based upon the information at 10:46 and nothing else - the RX 9070 will be about equivalent to an RTX4080/ 4080Super That's pretty damn good for the price and supposed availability, but a bit of a disappointment... although I shouldn't be too disappointment given that AMD stated they were no longer trying to compete with the high-end (Nvidia) market.

So at best it can try to compete with 40xx series... Fact that AMD compares it to 30xx series says it all.
If it's worse or similar to 4080 then only upside is people will be able to buy it, but it's outdated out of the box. Because we know how terrible new games are and we all know because of dlss 4 devs will no longer optimize games at all.

Im genuinely excited about this card. My 3070 is getting a little long in the tooth and is really hampered by its 8GB of VRAM. Im doing a completely new build soon and I hope to do an all team red watercooled build, so my hope is there is support from the aftermarket for waterblocks on the XT. Thanks, Steve!

I'm 46. I watching about the same script over and over again, 2 video cards complanies fighting to win the market. I don't expect anything from them because there is no real competition and i waiting for intel to compete them some time in the future. They will kill gaming industry with these pricing policies.

AMD pretty clearly setting the prices so close to force people into the XT model rather than separate both cards enough for them to compete on their own performance/value. Personally the 9070 should be $450 and XT at $550 but I am happy to see AMD not shoot blow their own foot off with this release. ... Yet.

Don't know if a retailer in my country just put a random price placeholder or it's a real price but Gigabyte AORUS RX 9070 XT Elite (GV-R9070XTAORUS E-16GD) is roughly 1350$ and Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT GAMING OC (GV-R9070XTGAMING OC-16GD) is 1270$, those prices are after tax too, but still funny af.

Dang it I really wanted the XT to be the replacement for my 3090 600$.
But 30% performance increase isn’t really big enough to make the jump.
I don’t even think I’d notice that in game (IE 70 to 91)
If only there was like an XTX for 700$ with 80 CUs, I would have jumped.

Have a 7900XT 20Gb Gigabyte OC. It's stock TDP is 340w and can in Adrenaline software take it to 390w, so will be interesting to see the 9070XT 305w what it performs like and when cranked. But 16gb ram :( And PCIe 5.0 I wonder if we'll see an X2 double GPU card like back in the day :D ! !

this gap, this price difference, gap, is a fundamental class distinction in other countries... 50 dollars is a difference, like whether or not to eat something, for a month...
From that perspective, I really hate the way you approach it in the first seconds of this video!
