AMD says Radeon 9070 GPUs are coming in March

CES 2025 set up an old-fashioned graphics card battle between Nvidia and AMD, even if the latter showed up a little late. We know when the new RTX 50 series GPUs will debut (at the end of January) and we now know when AMD's Radeon RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT cards will hit store shelves: March. If you want a more specific date, well, you aren't alone. But that's as much as AMD vice president David McAfee (whom we've spoken with on several occasions) is willing to share at the moment, only barely improving on the "Q1" date that was announced at CES. "Radeon 9000 series hardware and software are looking great and we are planning to have a wide assortment of cards available globally. Can't wait for gamers to get their hands on the cards when they go on sale in March!" AMD's decision to launch the Radeon 9000 series at the xx70 level has been interpreted as an unspoken capitulation to Nvidia, who has dominated more expensive tiers of graphics cards for both industrial AI applications and consumer PCs.
