The new generation of AMD, the RX 9000, is everything we gamers wanted

AMD has launched its latest graphics card, the Radeon RX 9070 XT, which positions itself as the most powerful from the company to date, surpassing its predecessor, the RX 7900 XTX.

In gaming performance tests, the RX 9070 XT closely competes with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 at 4K and 1440p resolutions, marking a significant improvement in AMD’s offering in the GPU sector.

With an official price of $599, the RX 9070 XT is presented as a more affordable option in a market where GPU prices have been rising for too long.

AMD can win this generation in the mid-range and low-end

This strategy of more competitive pricing can attract players dissatisfied with Nvidia’s high prices, which has raised its prices again for this RTX 5000 generation.

Although the RX 9070 XT has a TGP (maximum power) of 304W, acceptable for its performance, gamers will find that its balance between power consumption and graphics power is favorable.

However, it is important to note that, despite its strong performance in gaming, the card does not match Nvidia in creative applications or in artificial intelligence applications.

The RX 9070 XT will be available from March 6, 2025, and it is expected not to suffer the same degree of stock shortages and price hikes as Nvidia GPUs. This could make it more accessible for those looking to upgrade their hardware without breaking the bank.

It is remarkable that, even when comparing its performance with the RTX 5070 Ti, the RX 9070 XT manages to position itself as a viable option. In summary, AMD has created a GPU that promises to be the best choice for gamers looking for performance and value at the same time.
