In the recent earnings call, AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su has confirmed that the Radeon RX 9070 series GPUs will launch in early March, after the announcement made during CES 2025 this January.
AMD RX 9070 Series Launching Early March
“In Gaming Graphics, revenue declined year-over-year, as we accelerated channel sellout in preparation for the launch of our next-gen Radeon 9000 series GPUs. Our focus with this generation is to address the highest volume portion of the enthusiast gaming market with our new RDNA 4 architecture,” said Su.
“RDNA 4 delivers significantly better ray tracing performance and add support for AI-powered upscaling technology that will bring high-quality 4K gaming to mainstream players when the first Radeon 9070 series GPUs go on sale in early March.”
Not long after, an anonymous source told Uniko’s Hardware that the new Radeon GPUs will be available on March 6, which aligns with AMD’s official announcement. However, that information was seemingly retracted later on, so it’s not exactly clear if such information ended up potentially breaking the embargo, which the Taiwanese media has agreed on.
To recap – AMD is expected to launch two new GPUs under this lineup, the RX 9070 XT and RX 9070, serving the mainstream high-end market. The company has previously stated it will not be competing at the enthusiast segment, where NVIDIA takes a commanding dominance in the market today.
