Sapphire Radeon RX 9070 XT Nitro+

Thank for the review @W1zzard. Do you know if this card supports VRR on Linux via HDMI? Is there an adapter on board?
 
Does anyone know availability in Europe? I've been smashing the F5 button on Amazon.de all morning and still nothing :')
3PM GMT+1?
 
Where can one download drivers for 9070/XT, official site doesn't list any? Some users already have their cards in hand and no driver to install
 
DLSS is not a pro anymore! Specially with the crazy price difference between 5070Ti and 9070XT. FSR4 is now better than DLSS3. DLSS4 Transformer model also has issues that were already been demonstrated. Also FSR3.1 can be injected in almost every title with Optiscaler and DLSS Enabler.
 
More "all over the place" power figures, this time from tom. Looks like RDNA4 matches or beats 5000 series, but can lose if pushed too far:

and 1,169 € in Europe (if you live there, also VAT included)
Yeah, nah.
This is German price search, VAT is 19% (In Germany it is normally cheaper than anywhere else in EU accounting for VAT)

1169 is what you'd pay for 5070Ti:

This is the german MSRP, not street price. We were talking about MSRP.

And the first ebay listings are here:

In the EU, cards already got bought out. Caseking.de 0 availability, Mindfactory 0 availability, on Amazon.de there is an occasional product but before I click on it, it's already sold :')
MSRP is there tho :D

Is that Amazon? They don't even have any 9070 cards listed over here.
 
So what happened to that "big" stock ;-;

My microcenter has tons of cards. But I'm not going to store and paying 10% sales tax.
And only about a quarter of them are $600.

1st pic is CaseKing.de. 2nd is Amazon, they have only 2 models listed for now, one is unavailable and the other one you can see in the picture :laugh:
 
All the MSRP card were bought by bots and are currently being flipped on ebay. I only see $730 and higher, I hate bots.
 
So what happened to that "big" stock ;-;
People who have money to play with and bots. Buy 5 cards at 700€ and sell them for 1100€, 2000€ profit in a couple of days, that's way more than most european's monthly salary.

Yep. But I believe the next "round" of stock will be way more expensive. Here in Slovenia, a single 9070XT is currently being sold for... ↓

So what happened to that "big" stock ;-;
Overclockers UK reported around 4000 cards (both 9070 and 9070 XT of all makes and models), which is still a much higher number per capita than all 50-series Nvidia cards combined, reported in the whole US (shame that still not enough).
 
There are no stock at all cheapest ones are going for 850€ paying +250-400€ for what ? For air!

Doubtful, there is stock for less than 850€.

I can find the pure in stock for 820€ (the cheapest card I can find), but no MSRP models available, plus one of the main stores in my country is already accepting reserves of the sapphire pulse for 800€, 100€ above MSRP.

It might turn ou to be a paper launch when it comes to MSRP just like Nvidia was.
 
Basic Pulse model, sold BY AMAZON :')

Doesn't look terrible to me. Not surprised that 3rd party AIBs are generally charging a lot more. It's become a bit of a meme lately.
Obviously, these companies are chasing profits more so than ever. There are more cards listed and they are all available.
