AMD is finally set to reveal more about its upcoming Radeon RX 9070 series graphics cards, which will air live on February 28 during an 8 AM EST / 5 AM PT stream on the AMD Gaming YouTube channel. The launch follows a delay from its initial anticipation at CES and a revised launch window that now places it after Nvidia’s RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5070.
The RX 9070 series is expected to utilize the RDNA 4 microarchitecture, which has been shrouded in speculation due to AMD’s lack of information. However, with Nvidia’s high-end cards selling out quickly, there’s a sense that the mid-range market is ripe for AMD’s offering.
AMD’s David McAfee announced that the company plans to offer a wide range of graphics cards globally at launch, including the RX 9070 and its XT variant. Recent leaks suggest the RX 9070 XT can achieve impressive frame rates in benchmarking tests, potentially giving AMD a competitive edge in the market.
Key details about the RX 9070 series include:
* Launch date: February 28
* RDNA 4 microarchitecture
* Mid-range targeting, not competing directly with Nvidia’s high-end cards
* Potential for improved performance and competitiveness in the mid-range market
The launch of AMD’s new graphics cards will be closely watched by gamers and industry enthusiasts, who are eagerly awaiting information on pricing, availability, and performance.
