It appears prices are lower than the RTX 5070 Ti. While the prices are quite inflated, there are models available at MSRP.
All of the 90 series I can find on Best Buy's website are XFX models. As of right now, Newegg has yet to list the newest generation of AMD Radeon GPUs.
This doesn't justify the pricing of the AIBs, in my opinion. I see the reason for USD prices to go up, but it still makes me sad. lol
I'm headed to microcenter this morning. They open in 2.5 hours. But I am not a big wait in line guy. Especially in Denver, Co in winter.
My list:
1. Sapphire Nitro 9070 XT
2. Powercolor Red Devil 9070 XT
3. Asrock Tiachi 9070 XT
To me, these are the 3 best cards I would go for if available. Plus, I need to throw a water block on it when they come out and I know they will make a block eventually for these 3 cards.
I'm sticking with my 7900 XTX and going to wait for a while. This thing still has a lot of life left in it, and the lack of FSR4 doesn't really bother me.
So, my search of Amazon, Newegg and MicroCenter this morning doesn't show any of the new RX 9070 GPUs available. That's sad.
Also, the Best Buy GPUs are all listed as 'coming soon'. What happened to the launch today?

Its funny that up until about 3 hours ago, the https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sapphire-7900-Nitro-Vapor-X-GDDR6/dp/B0BT524DL4/ was showing out of stock or wouldn't be available to ship until 2-3 months. It was floating around the 1k euro mark for a while now.
Suddenly there's a ton of them and the prices are up at 1.5k to 2k
The Sapphire NITRO+ AMD RADEO RX 9070 XT is up now at 1193 euros

There are cheaper sub 800 options but they either have no stock or still not ready to ship out.
... on the other hand, 7900XT is now at 700-750ish and I was able to spot a 499€ 7800XT and lots of 500-550 options.
Checked Caseking.de for the 9070XT about an hour ago and saw this!
Checked back a few mins ago and now...
