AMD Unveils RDNA 4 GPUs: RX 9070 XT and RX 9060 Set to Challenge Nvidia at CES 2024
  • To capture market share effectively, AMD must provide better value compared to both its existing products and NVIDIA's offerings.

  • AMD is set to unveil its new RDNA 4 flagship GPU, rumored to be named the Radeon RX 9070 XT, adopting a fresh Radeon 9000 branding.

  • With CES 2025 just around the corner, more details about these GPUs are expected to emerge shortly.

  • The Navi 48 GPU is projected to be priced around $500, positioning it to compete with NVIDIA's RTX 5070, which is anticipated to be similarly priced.

  • Despite notable performance enhancements, AMD is not aiming for the high-end market, instead focusing on delivering value to consumers.

  • Preliminary performance benchmarks may not accurately reflect the RX 9070 XT's capabilities due to potential instability in drivers.

  • The name change to the RX 9070 XT has been confirmed by leakers and an official AMD Reddit post featuring the GPU's render.

  • Images of a new Radeon GPU design have emerged, possibly indicating the RX 9070 XT, showcasing a distinctive black and silver cooler.

  • In addition to the RDNA 4 series, AMD plans to release further RDNA 3 GPUs, including the RX 7750 and RX 7650, to enhance its product lineup.

  • As the RDNA 4 launch approaches, current AMD GPUs are seeing significant discounts, with the RX 7700 XT now priced as low as $350.

  • Concerns have surfaced regarding the 128-bit memory bus in mid-range and budget models, as enthusiasts had hoped for higher specifications.

  • If AMD fails to meet performance expectations, the 9000 series could be viewed as a disappointment.
