AMD Radeon RX 9070 Series Review Embargo Reportedly Lifts on March 5

[T0@st]

A leaked document has revealed an alleged review release date of March 5; occurring the day before a rumored global market release of AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 graphics cards. VideoCardz has reported on its inspection of "NDA materials" intended for members of the press. Team Red has officially announced a proper RDNA 4-themed event; February 28 is an important date on their calendar. Fresh reportage suggests that hardware media outlets and online influencers will be briefed next week, mere days away from AMD's highly-anticipated presentation.

Following head-scratching delays and a secretive marketing strategy (earlier on in 2025), Team Red and its AIB co-conspirators are expected to deliver full specifications, performance data, and pricing during next week's special event. Leaks have pointed to a possible March 6 launch; VideoCardz did not spot any mentioning of this specific date in leaked Radeon RX 9070 NDA documents. A steady flow of insider knowledge has already hinted at speculative "Navi 48" technical details and pre-release performance figures. Will AMD confirm (rumored) PCIe 5.0 connectivity, or acknowledge leaked "Pro" 32 GB variants (with less sarcasm)?

Videocardz reports that only the 9070 Non-XT reviews will **apparently be released that day. W1zzard can't spot the package in plain sight, even with his binoculars?

AMD's being pretty careful with their own online store as well. I've got a crawler hitting their site and nothing for the MBA versions are coming up yet.

Also I'm pretty surprised that only a few check their own store for the 9800X3D as well. It has come into stock on their site a bunch of times this last week.

"co-conspirators" seems a bit hyperbolic.

Those sold out within like 30 seconds. You're right AMD is definitely up to something. I think the press will find out what they're upto, the morning of.

Do you mean the AMD branded cards? I thought someone on here mentioned they were for promotional purposes only?! I did wonder if they would release AMD cards for Navi 44.

Do they only sell MBA cards on their site?

They were selling their CPUs and Made by AMD (MBA) graphics cards there before. If its for their OEMs (like Sapphire or PowerColor), they have a link to goes to online retailers.

When they were still selling the Made by AMD (MBA) 7900 XTX, this link was where the page existed. (It redirects to the above now)

Yea, I had a nose the other day and could only see their processors listed there. Interesting to see their web traffic, or web traffic in general around retailers.

Maybe golden packets instead of a golden tickets is a good idea...

AMD just threw this launch away. The cards are going to cost $50 less than the NV equivalents. Obviously increasing market share is not profitable for some reason over at AMD HQ.
