AMD Radeon RX 9070 Series GPUs Teased by ASUS, Suggesting Imminent Launch
AMD's next-gen RDNA 4 GPUs might be closer to launch than anticipated, as ASUS has begun teasing its upcoming TUF Gaming and PRIME Radeon RX 9070 Series GPUs on social media. The teasers add to the growing anticipation for the Radeon RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT, which are expected to hit the market soon.
ASUS Hypes Up the Radeon RX 9070 Series
In a tweet from ASUS Türkiye, the company hinted at the imminent arrival of the RX 9070 series:
"Yeni oyuncu alana giriş yapmaya hazırlanıyor... Yeni yılda oyunları yüksek grafiklerde oynayın! Yepyeni ASUS TUF Gaming ve Prime AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT ve 9070 Serisi ekran kartları hakkında daha fazla bilgi çok yakında! 👀"
While the post did not reveal an official launch date, it emphasized that the RX 9070 GPUs are "coming soon." Industry rumors suggest AMD plans to initiate pre-orders for the GPUs on January 23, with retail availability following shortly. Multiple retail channels are reportedly already stocked with units, awaiting AMD's go-ahead.
Radeon RX 9070 XT: A Promising Contender
The Radeon RX 9070 XT has been benchmarked in 3DMark Time Spy, showcasing performance that edges out the RX 7900 GRE. The GPU is expected to deliver dominant performance-per-dollar values, competing directly with NVIDIA’s 70- and 80-class counterparts in the mainstream GPU market.
Anticipated Pricing
Radeon RX 9070 XT: Expected MSRP of $500–$600, with a recent listing showing the Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC 16G priced at $529.
Radeon RX 9070: Pricing details remain unclear but are speculated to fit within the $300–$1,000 range to align with its competition.
AMD’s RDNA 4 architecture promises enhanced efficiency, better ray tracing, and competitive performance at a lower price point. Given AMD’s strategic push for affordability and value, the RX 9070 series aims to dominate the midrange GPU segment.
