Yeah they haven't changed, I was mistaken. What happened was I logged into my account and it changed over to our 23% vat rate 😅
looking like 850ish euro for the top models if those overclocker prices are to be believed, depending on performance on the high end models they could be great value compared to nvidia, its a damn shame they didnt release a 7900xtx replacement, they could have had a 4090 competitor imo
These are the prices for us in Ireland
Hopefully there's enough stock that they won't sell out in a fraction of a second and we'll have a minute to shop around for the best deals
Said on the forums that they have a few thousand
Just have to hope and pray that the bots and scalpers don't eat them all up.
Do we know any retailers selling XFX cards? Can't see any on ocuk or scan and the german retailers don't have any cards listed yet.
These are the leaked prices in Germany with 19% vat
Overclockers is actually looking slightly cheaper once you add the 23% vat onto the German prices
Leaked benchmark 2% behind 7900xtx
Think I'll try get the Pulse since its looking to be one of the cheapest, would've liked a Nitro or higher end one but they're looking at €900+ which is a bit too close in price to the 5070ti, I'm seeing a lot of them pop up online under €1k the last few days.
I've money in my Revolut here for a 42" OLED to replace my dual 27" monitors and a Switch 2 and I'm very tempted to spend some of the money on a 9070 XT to upgrade from a 10GB 3080.
Will see what way stock and prices are but if I don't buy now I'll probably end up getting one later in the year either way.
Id say the high end models are looking to be between 850-900 delivered
Nitro should be just under 900 from Overclockers but if you don't get in quick they'll bump up the prices, same with Caseking. I'd rather buy from Amazon to be honest
Same, I wonder will they have stock at 2pm
Overclockers do seem to have loads of stock though from the forum
"2000 units from Sapphire in stock, 1000 from Powercolor and 1000 from Asrock"
"MSRP is capped quantity of a few hundred, so prices will jump once those are sold through."
Think I'll try to get the taichi or nitro tomorrow, although a pulse at msrp is very very tempting
Reviews are out!
Performance:
RX 9070 XT: Raster ~RTX 5070 Ti, RT ~RTX 4070 Ti Super
RX 9070: Raster ~RX 7900 XTX / RTX 4070 Ti, RT ~RTX 4070 Super
Pricing from Overclockers
Base models £570 - so around 680eur converted + Irish 23% VAT?
£15 delivery from Overclockers as well I think. I think it'll be around €720-730 delivered to here?
(£570/120) + £15 * 1.23 = £600. Revolut is saying about €727.
Edit: the XT look to be starting around £629 including UK Vat.
Only the first few 100 will be that price
Just under £20 for delivery, it'll be just over €725 delivered for the cheapest one
OK we will have to see.
Yea I wasn't wrong when I said the CT would be closed to €800 the other day.
OCUK claim to have over 1,000 Sapphire RX 9070 XT Pulse GPUs in stock
It's a £569.99 card
Confirmed on Overclockers they'll be jumping £60 after the first 100
So it will be fastest finger first. £60 isn't outrageous as price gouging goes, but I'd still rather not pay it. Is 14:00 UTC the global launch time?
Yeah 2pm tomorrow
BOO!
Is this standard practice with card retailers these days? Wondering are Scan planning on doing the same.
Hoping to get one of the base models. If not I might just go with last gen card, 7800 or something. Probably pushing the boat out a bit too much budget wise as it is
Depends on the games you play, but after watching the reviews & FSR feature videos I'd be inclined to agree.
The raster performance is only OK compared to the 7000 series. Massive uplift in ray tracing performance and FSR 4 is really good and comparable to DLSS.
So probably worth it if want to play games with lots of eye candy, but if you're only playing online multiplayer games at native rez it's definitely not.
Gibbo on OCUK forums just confirmed the following:
"Because the retailer paid more for them than MSRP, so once they hit the limit that AMD will subsidise them for the price moves to the actual cost."
