AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT: Leaked Specs and Price Rumors

AIB retailer has outed the details of AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT based on the RDNA 4 architecture due out from the firm in coming months which has generated much expectation among gamers and tech lovers. It can be stated that, this GPU is cheaper than all other high-end GPUs which were priced at about $1000 to $1200 and can offer very high performance.

Key Leaked Specifications

Here’s what we know so far about the Radeon RX 9070 XT:

• Architecture: RDNA 4 Navi 48 XT

• Processor Node: TSMC N4

• Base Clock: 2.4 GHz (2400 MHz)

• Boost Clock: 2.97 GHz (2970 MHz)

• Memory: 16GB GDDR6, identical bus width of 256-bit, high memory bandwidth of 624 GB/s

• Shading Units: 4096 units

• Ray Tracing Cores: 64 RT Cores

• L3 Cache: 64 MB

• Power Consumption: Approximately estimated to be 250 watt from two 8 pin power connectors.

These specifications propose a GPU that may be able to directly compete with current AMD’s RX 7900 XT and some leaks even point toward higher levels of performance.

Pricing and Availability

The leaked price of $600 places the RX 9070 XT as the cheaper variant in the entire RDNA 4 line of GPUs by AMD. But this price is not fixed, because AMD still did not reveal the pricing during the CES 2025 event.

There are hints that the reveal of this product is going to happen on the 22nd of January in 2025 with the RX 9070 XT and the RX 9070 without the XT moniker as its companion.

Performance Expectations

Performance leakage stays in the realm of rumor, with the card being claimed to perform anywhere from RX 7900 XT levels to even matching the RX 7900 XTX. The 256-bit memory bus and 624 GB/s bandwidth give it the performance more similar to the RX 7900 XT which would make it a good choice for gamers looking for high performance but for a mid tier price.

AMD and RDNA 4 Future

AMD’s RDNA 4 architecture on a grand level should propose superior energy efficiency and enhancements to RDNA 3. If these leaks can be believed, the RX 9070 XT will become one of the best options for gamers who don’t want to spend a lot of money to upgrade.

Conclusion

The Radeon RX 9070 XT has the potential to revolutionalize the mid-tier GPU market through its performance to price ratio. Gamers and enthusiasts are already waiting for the AMD confirmation due to the rumored announcement scheduled for January 22.
