A cut-down RX 9070 XT that keeps the same 16 GB on a 256-bit bus at a much lower 220 W board power: 73.5 fps in Cyberpunk 2077 at 1440p Ultra without upscaling in Tom's Hardware's 2026 testing, ahead of the RTX 5070's 69.3. Its 16 GB leaves room for bigger local AI models than 12 GB cards, though NVIDIA cards score higher in AI text generation.
