TL;DR: AMD's Radeon RX 9070 XT, launched at $599, now retails at this price for the ASRock Challenger model, offering competitive performance against NVIDIA's RTX 5070 series. Built on TSMC's 4nm process with advanced cooling and AI-powered FSR 4, it delivers excellent 1440p and 4K gaming with improved ray tracing over RDNA 3.

AMD released the Radeon RX 9070 XT, its flagship RDNA 4 GPU, in March of this year. Launching with an MSRP of $599 in the US, although it was possible to pick up one at or close to this price, for the most part, the 9070 XT has been retailing for around $650 on the low end to around $700 for most models since its debut. As a competitive alternative to the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5070, the value proposition for RDNA 4 naturally makes it a far better deal, priced at $599.

The good news is that you can now purchase a Radeon RX 9070 XT for $599 at multiple retailers in the country; however, this appears to be limited to the reference ASRock Challenger Radeon RX 9070 XT 16GB model. Previously available for $649.99, the ASRock Challenger Radeon RX 9070 XT is now available for $599.99 at Newegg, Micro Center, and Walmart.

Built on TSMC's 4nm process with a GPU Boost Clock speed of 3 GHz, AMD's flagship RDNA 4 GPU is in many ways a better option than even the flagship RDNA 3 generation's Radeon RX 7900 XTX. With the new AI-powered FSR 4 and a massive improvement to ray-tracing performance, the 9070 XT delivers excellent 1440p and 4K gaming performance.
