Where should I preorder these new AMD GPUs?

To maximize your chances of securing one of these new AMD GPUs on launch day, consider the following retailers:

• Amazon: Amazon offers a variety of models but be cautious of third-party sellers. Ensure you're buying from "shipped and sold by Amazon" to avoid inflated prices or scams.

• Best Buy: Best Buy is likely to have a wide range of models available online. Availability can vary by region, but if you're in an area with lower demand, your chances are better here. Orders typically ship quickly.

• Newegg: Newegg will carry all models of the Radeon RX 9070 and 9070 XT. Buying directly from Newegg ensures you receive the full manufacturer's warranty. They may also offer bundle deals, which can be advantageous if you're building a PC.

• Micro Center: If you live near a Micro Center, this is your best bet for in-store purchases. They often reserve stock for in-store customers, so arriving early is key.

We reviewed both AMD graphics cards

Our review of the AMD Radeon RX 9070 gave it an impressive 8/10. It matches the price of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 but offers superior performance in most games and includes more VRAM (16GB vs 12GB), making it a more future-proof option. It also consumes about the same amount of power as the RTX 5070.

AMD Radeon RX 9070 Review by Jacqueline Thomas

"The AMD Radeon RX 9070 is an excellent 1440p graphics card that makes the competition all but irrelevant. It delivers exceptional 1440p performance, often reaching high refresh rates even without frame generation, and includes an AI upscaler for enhanced image quality. The only drawback is its proximity to the performance of the Radeon RX 9070 XT."

The AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT received a perfect 10/10 in our review. It's $150 less than the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti yet outperforms it in several games. It also features 16GB of VRAM, matching both the 9070 and 5070 Ti. However, it does consume more power and runs hotter on average than the RTX 5070 Ti.

AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT Review by Jacqueline Thomas

"PC gaming has been in a decadent spiral since 2020, but the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT is a reminder that it doesn’t have to be that way. This graphics card can handle any game at 4K with ray tracing enabled, and does so at a price that makes the competition look greedy. Only time will tell if the launch price holds, but what's clear is that we need more graphics cards like the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT."
