News AMD Radeon 9000 series officially announced to go on sale in March 2025

SCL and Shweta both had the lowest prices listed online, but now they are out of stock. The next batch is supposed to be available after the 15th and Wednesday next week, respectively.

Currently, I'm considering any flagship AIB model to be a good deal if it’s priced under 80,000. The low-tier cards are priced so close to the flagship that their value is lost. I would much prefer to buy the Nitro over the Red Devil simply because of how innovative its design is. Also, the Red Devil card is the loudest according to the ComputerBase review.

Just a note: the prices shown on the Computech website do not include credit card fees and shipping, and their packaging isn't the best.

The Limited Edition of the Red Devil is now listed on Shweta at the same price as Computech.

Does anyone know when ASRock is coming? I asked one retailer a couple of days ago and was told they will know after the 10th of March.
 
We've spent multiple videos covering NVIDIA's partners' absurd GPU launches, including the Dark Obelisk, Midnight Kaleidoscope, and other oddly named video cards. Today, it's time to cover AMD's partners' RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT models. We'll compare the design of each of the partner models we found, including a brief look at design, thermal solutions, and marketing. We have a separate video coming on prices -- and a lot to say about them. In the meantime, we'll explain the differences between Sapphire, PowerColor, Yeston, ASUS vs. ASRock, Gigabyte, Acer, and XFX for AMD RX 9070 XT GPUs.
 
Uh-oh, I confused the Red Devil with XFX. That’s just what happens when you wake up at 3 AM and make a post without your coffee. The Red Devil is indeed silent.

I called Shweta; they do not have the Red Devil in stock. It will arrive on the 18th of March.

Computech also does not have the Nitro+ or Red Devil in hand. One or two units of the Nitro+ and Red Devil will be available starting tomorrow. Pure is available but they have priced it higher than flagship models.

With AMD's FSR 4 and NVIDIA's DLSS 4, AI upscaling will get wild! Wonder if AMD can finally close the gap or if NVIDIA still has the edge. Fingers are crossed for FSR 4 Frame Gen on 3060 cards like FSR 3
 

I think the card that he has here is has some messed up OC bios cause I have looked at other reviews of the same card and the OC bios seems to be working correctly there, you can check that out in the techpowerup review database, and the overclocking over the OC bios is also pretty good in those reviews. This could be because this is most probably an early sample card and not a retail card.

Modders found a way to inject FSR 4 into games with DLSS2+/XESS support

They have achieved this through a tool called Optiscaler that will enable support for FSR2, FSR3, FSR4, and also XeSS in games that already have the DLSS upscaler enabled. Likewise, it also works the other way around; if the game has FSR or XeSS only, users can inject DLSS support but it may be more complicated.This is experimental at the moment which is why some games tend to break. It may also mess with the anti cheat in games which have it.

Optiscaler isn’t just about upscaling, it can also add Frame Generation support to games that otherwise had no such feature. Plus, there’s even a method of adding Anti-Lag support through NVIDIA Reflex.

This has allowed players to achieve over 60fps at 1440p with Path Tracing enabled in Cyberpunk 2077 with the help of FSR 4 Performance mode which looks better than the FSR 3 Quality mode.



Here is the list of games supported till now:

  • Atomic Heart (tested on DLSS Input)
  • Avowed (tested on DLSS input)
  • Baldur's Gate 3 (tested on DLSS input, need to use DX11 .exe. Arguably not worth due to lower performance than Vulkan w/o upscaler during tests)
  • Black Myth: Wukong
  • Control
  • Control (with HDR-Ultrawide-DLSS-RT unofficial patch) (Not supported)
  • Cyberpunk 2077 (Need to use FSR or XeSS inputs, Crashes on Windows 10)
  • Deep Rock Galactic (tested on DLSS Input)
  • Dragon's Dogma II (set FGType=nofg)
  • Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (tested on DLSS Input)
  • Ghost of Tsushima (tested on FSR3 input)
  • Hitman: World of Assassination (Use DLSS or XeSS)
  • Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered
  • Jusant (DLSS inputs)
  • Kingdom Come: Deliverance II
  • Lies of P (tested on DLSS input)
  • Red Dead Redemption 2 (use DX12)
  • Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 (tested on DLSS input)
  • Silent Hill 2 Remake (tested on DLSS inputs)
  • Shadow of the Tomb Raider (tested on DLSS inputs)
  • Tokyo Xtreme Racer (tested on DLSS inputs)
  • Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection (tested on DLSS inputs)
  • The Witcher 3 Next Gen (tested on XeSS inputs)
