The Nitro+ Radeon RX 9070 XT sits at the top of Sapphire’s lineup. AMD’s current Radeon generation focuses solely on the upper mid-range segment with intense price competition. As a result, Sapphire’s flagship isn’t a pricey premium model with a massive cooler like the previous-gen Nitro+ RX 7900 XTX. Instead, the designers focus on attractive aesthetics and distinctive features, such as the hidden 12V-2×6 power connector.

On GeForce cards, you can also enable the generally superior DLSS, which reconstructs images using AI from lower-sample frames through super resolution. For RT Ultra, we use DLAA and the Balanced mode; for RT Overdrive with path tracing, both DLAA and DLSS in Performance mode are used. GeForce RTX 40 cards support generation of an intermediate frame, and the RTX 50 series is also tested in Multi Frame Generation x4 mode, which inserts three generated frames between two rendered ones, increasing frame rates several-fold.
