AMD has listened to gamers and seized an opportunity created by criticism of the new GeForce RTX 50 series. With the Radeon RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT, it has set aggressive prices that make many overlook minor drawbacks compared to GeForce. The RX 9070 XT is only slightly slower than the RTX 5070 Ti in rasterization but offers a far more attractive price, especially compared to overpriced non-reference GeForce cards.
We introduced the Radeon RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT, their specifications, technologies, and the innovations of the RDNA 4 architecture a few days ago in separate articles. So, let’s dive straight into the tested card and the benchmark results.
The RX 9070 XT Pulse either has only one BIOS or a switch hidden so well that I couldn’t find it. The parameters are reference, and so is the power limit.
To the values from GPU-Z monitoring, I’ll add data from HWiNFO, which provides plenty of details. This includes hotspot readings, which are missing on GeForce cards. The power limit can be increased by ten percent.
Included in the accessories, aside from a brief installation manual, is a graphics card holder that can be mounted into the expansion slot screw holes.
