AMD RDNA 4 and Radeon RX 9000-series GPUs: Specifications, release date, pricing, and more revealed

What should the 9070XT compare with the Nvidia 5 Series cards? I'm still looking at the 5080 but I will consider AMD as well. I'm just waiting for the release of the 9900X3D CPU's.

I'm going to wait for the "RX 9070 XTX", before even considering replacing my RTX 3090.

I doubt they will release it anytime soon, for 1080P and 1440P the 9070 XT seems very reasonable for me to replace the 3070Ti.

But for 3090, yea, you likely should hold on for quite a while more

Powercolour Reaper is the only card that fit comfortably in the Fractal North with a front 360mm AIO. XFX is at the boarder of fitting also, actually will depend on the price and availablility of them in my region, I really liked the power colour hellhound look,
Sapphire is nice but the 12V 2x6 connector is a tad too much for my liking... using the adapter looks like it will put some stress on the card also

I see, if size is the biggest factor then that makes it quite a different story. Hellhound and the Red Devil line look fantastic but they are usually bulky.

exactly, now I am eyeing on the Gigabyte gaming OC, ASUS prime OC, Power colour reaper or the lowest XFX (twist?), so basically the supposedly basic MSRP models, in my region the "exchange rate" between USD and local currency is usually around 10% up by the dealer, so.. hope for the best. And what's interesting is that along with the Nvidia cards, most are marketing to be using thermal putty and PTM7950 as the TIM, so supposedly the old days where crap paste drying out should be a non-issue.

And FWIW, the 9070XTs are likely cooler than the 5080, which the asus prime is basically using the same cooler and in theory, should be overkill already.

Swift is usually their basic model followed by Quick, I have read rumours they might even release a dual fan version too.
