Spanish retailer Neo-Byte listed threeRX 9070-seriesGPUs from Gigabyte on its e-commerce platform, including pricing and specifications. X usermomomo_usfirst shared the listings, showing a Gigabyte AorusRadeonRX 9070 XT Elite priced at €1,119.99 (~$1,148.53), a Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC listed for €1,069.99(~$1,097.26), and a Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 Gaming OC GPU with a €889.99 (~$912.67) price tag.
Although these GPUs already have active listings, we recommend throwing a pinch of salt over early retailer listings. Sometimes, these prices could be simple placeholders. It’s also important to note that computer hardware is more expensive outside of the U.S. market, and Spain has a 21% standard VAT (value-added tax) rate so that the prices may be higher than usual. While we still don’t have an official launch date for these AMD GPUs, B&H previously listed the RX 9070 series with preorders set forJanuary 23.
However, what caught our eye with Neo-Byte’s listings are the GPUs’ specifications. SinceAMD skipped announcing the RDNA 4 GPUsduringCES2025, many of us are in the dark about the pricing and details of these new graphics cards. Although the company promises to release more information about these GPUs this quarter, many enthusiasts can’t wait for more details about these potential NvidiaRTX 50-seriescompetitors.
AMD said that it focuses on the sub-$1,000 segment for its RDNA 4 GPUs, and the price of the RX 9070 certainly puts it within the ballpark figure. However, Nvidia’s launch of theRTX 5070and RTX 5070 Ti, which these GPUs are expected to compete against, are priced aggressively, undercutting the RX 9070 series by nearly $400. The RTX 5070 will retail for $549, so a more realistic price for the Radeon RX 9070 XT would be around $550 and $600 range, but we’ll have to wait for AMD’s official announcement to find out.
Nvidia claims that the RTX 5070 can deliverRTX 4090-like gaming performance. We doubt this claim regarding numbers, though, as Team Green likely uses technologies like DLSS to deliver higher FPS instead of creating a midrange GPU with the grunt of the previous-generation top-of-the-line card at nearly a quarter of the price.
It’ll be exciting to see a fight between AMD’s RX 9070 series and Nvidia’s RTX 5070 to see who delivers more performance and better bang for the buck. Hopefully, Intel will release higher tiers of itsBattlemage GPUsto turn the fight into a three-way battle royale in the mid-range desktop GPU space.
