AMD has committed to restocking its RDNA 4 graphics cards following an "unprecedented" launch for the company.

Nvidia got a jump on AMD when it introduced hardware-accelerated ray-tracing in the RTX 20-series in 2018. And while these effects were only supported in a few games at the time, many modern games offer at least some kind of ray-traced lighting effects.

The AMD Radeon RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT graphics cards are the new mid-range champions of this generation. Both cards offer phenomenal performance while undercutting their Nvidia competition in price. They go up for sale on March 6 starting at 6am PST.

Nvidia’s dominance over the latest generation of graphics cards ends today. AMD might have surrendered the high end of the GPU market, but its new $549 Radeon RX 9070 and $599 RX 9070 XT look set to bring Nvidia back to reality, at least in the midrange.

AMD really came out swinging with the Radeon RX 9070 XT. At $599, it undercuts the Nvidia Geforce RTX 5070 Ti by a whopping 21%, but ends up being, on average, 2% faster. There are games where the RTX 5070 Ti beats the Radeon RX 9070 XT, but the fact that these two graphics cards are trading blows at all is a win for AMD.

It's been a long time coming for AMD to reveal RDNA 4, but has it been worth the wait? Presently, the only two graphics cards of AMD's current GPU generation, the RX 9070 XT and 9070, seek the fill the budget space left in the market by Nvidia,

There's no doubt that AMD's new RX 9070 XT is one of the best graphics cards you can buy this year. As you can read in our RX 9070 XT review, it offers performance on the level of the RTX 5070 Ti, just for $150 less.
