Bruh you beat me by a second :messenger_loudly_crying:

so it's dumbed down 5070ti without dlss/cude.... who would've guessed.
I mean everything depends on the price. If it's really available and really 600$... then sure. maybe.

If street prices for this end up being in the 750€ range (doubtful) then this is the 1st card in a long time that is actually great value.

If I was building a new rig now or needed a GPU upgrade this would be the card to get.

i suggest you watch the DF video about FSR4...
I will.
Anyway - All these cards are sooooo similar in performance.
4070ti/super, 4080, 5070ti, 5070, 9070 xt, 3090. All these cards (and some more probably) are honestly trading places depending on the game.
All I got from watching GN 9070xt review is... get a used 4070 ti super.

All these releases seem so redundant and fighting with diminishing returns. The clear winner from newly released cards is 5080 but price is impossibly stupid. 5070ti then but same problem.

This was expected.

Lack of "founders" model don't help.
Predicted! AMD should 100% have made a shit ton of reference cards. They already knew that AIBs were playing a major part as well as scalpers when it comes to the inflated price for GPUs and yet they decided to make 0 reference model.

They couldn't let this launch be too perfect so they still had to miss an opportunity, somewhere....

1% in F12024 is good compared to XTX
this is the important part. AMD always kills it in raster, it's about the RT and upscaling improvements.

They delivered on the raytracing performance 100%. that interview with the dude talking about improved RT- it wasn't a lie. and FSR4 too is really good. Path tracing- they could still use some work, but the 9070 XT = a 5070 in PT which is adequate enough performance for me.

the performance is good.
the price is good
what's the availability?

Any TLDR for this?
It’s… OK. 6% slower than 5070 Ti in 1440p, pretty much even in 4K.

20% slower than 5070 TI with raytracing but that doesn’t tell the whole story. It comes surprisingly close to the 5070 Ti in some games (Cyberpunk, Spiderman), whereas other games perform massively worse where they’re unplayable with RT (Wukong, Alan Wake 2, Indiana Jones).

Maybe 20% higher power consumption than 5070 Ti.

The price (and HOPEFULLY the ability to actually buy one) is what saves it. It’s a better value than the 5070 Ti for sure.



Edit: fixed a couple #s

On one hand the power consumption is embarassing especially since AMD used to be better than Nvidia in this dept, especially with 6000 series vs 3000 series

but on the other hand the 9070 XT has an actually good connector.

The RT improvements and quality of the FSR4 tech over RDNA2/3 are what stand out most to me. The raster performance puts it on par with a 7900XT @ 1440p, and around 9% faster @ 4K.

However, over 30% faster than 7900XT and 20% faster than a 7900XTX when it comes to RT performance is a really good performance bump.

If AMD have a healthy supply in stock and Nvidia continue to purposely blue ball everyone by intentionally hamstringing their own production line to increase demand, then AMD could get the W here in the mid-range battle.

Big day! Could this be the start of a Ryzen like redemption arc?
the problem is that a lot of the improvements here feel like they were begrudgingly doing so. like "ok, you guys have begged, we'll give you a good $600 card with good RT and very good upscaling..."
Especially considering the whole panic and delay over the price which clearly was going to be far higher before everyone yelled at them.

It doesn't feel like they're actually going for the jugular the same way they sodomized Intel with Ryzen. Not to mention we're still not out of the woods yet- the availability needs to be solved too.
