AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT

Radeon RX 9000Released March 6, 2025Launch price $599 (launch price (AMD suggested price); board-partner cards only)

$7.32 per frame in Cyberpunk 2077 1440p Ultra, on the launch price.

AMD's fastest current graphics card, aimed at 1440p and entry-level 4K: 81.8 fps in Cyberpunk 2077 at 1440p Ultra without upscaling in Tom's Hardware's 2026 testing, just ahead of the RTX 5070 Ti's 80.9 there. Ray tracing is far better than on AMD's previous generation but still trails NVIDIA in the heaviest scenes, and NVIDIA cards score higher in KitGuru's Procyon AI text test.
