Follow it up CES AnnouncementAMD removed more information about its upcoming Radeon RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT RDNA 4 chips – especially with a target price of $549 and $599), addressing it with 1440p and 4K players, respectively. They will be available on March 6 from their additional partners such as Acer, Asus, Sapphire, XFX, Asrock, Gigabyte, PowerColor, etc.
AMD said the cards were “made for 4K gaming at a price of 1440p,” NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 5070 and 5070 TI. We’ll see: It seems that the company is counting on a lot of heavy work on its software, although this is not uncommon. The Radeon RX 9060 card is scheduled to be launched later this year.
We did get more specifications about the cards.

For the upgrader, AMD retains the old-fashioned eight-pin force connection.
As mentioned earlier, this RDNA 4 generation has been redesigned and optimized on previous architectures, simplifying the core rendering computing unit to improve efficiency in chip and onboard memory. CUS comes with an improved third-generation ray tracing accelerator, which the company claims is twice as good as RDNA 3.x. AMD has also improved its media engine to resolve complaints about streaming media trying to play and stream on one system.
These chips also include upgraded AI accelerators that can handle more data types with theoretically better features (such as Denoise in Lightroom) and generative AI performance. It also has better memory processing and includes updates to it onnx The company claims that the library – up to 8 times. Additionally, card AI improvements are ready for neural rendering.

In addition to the cards, AMD also introduced the latest generation of high-scale technologies, FidelityFX Super Resolution 4 – Support required to include the game developers – Fluid motion frame 2.1. It can be used with company driver-based drivers HYPR-RX One-click performance optimization. AMD says the FSR 4 offers better results than the native 4K, not only in terms of performance, but also in terms of quality.
Since the card is mid-range, according to AMD’s numbers, you do need to use various software solutions if you want a playable 4K; it’s unclear whether they need the same boost of 1440p. New Kabi The last generationbut if you don’t know the unraised frame rate, the F1 24 1440p Ultra doesn’t mean too much (what if the last generation hits only 10FPS?). The test will be explained.
