Huge news if so.  Posted under news because apparently they actually ARE releasing at this price in China per the source.

9070 $549

9070XT $599

 

9070 is supposed to be about 20% faster than the 5070.  It also has 16 gigs of ram as opposed to 12.  Nvidia needs to quit cheaping out on ram.

 

9070xt is supposed to compete with the 5080.  Ray tracing has been greatly improved, although if it's enough remains to be seen.

 

Moores Law is Dead is predicting the 9070xt will sell out on launch day.  It should have decent volume, but Nvidia's supply still isn't there and there is not enough supply to meet the demand of the market.

 

Tarrifs in the U.S. are supposed to go into effect march 4th.  This might be another card where MSRP is only available on launch day...

Sounded more like the 9070 XT would trade blows with the 5070 Ti on raster. 9070 looks about 15-20% worse than the XT on specs.

That might be correct, although at this point people are saying the 5070ti doesn't exist!

When I was looking at prices and upgrade routes the 5070ti was what I compared against in real world price.

Hoping AMDs performance metrics are correct and FSR 4 is on par or better than DLSS2.

A buy for me if this is the case
