Don’t buy anything today

They don't launch today

The 9070 XT looks like it could be a contender, especially if you're a Linux user. The non XT is a very much meh looking price to performance though.

They'll probably drop the price soon. At $500 it might be worth looking at..

Yes, the classic AMD strategy to mess up launch-day reviews...

I would buy a $499 9070 XT or $399 9070.

It is sad when we have to celebrate $599 as “AMD not being greedy”.
