Majority of RX 9070 XT Are Listed Way Above MSRP Going Up to $829.99

Expert Verified By

Only One Variant Available At MSRP!

Story Highlight
  • AMD RX 9070 series graphics cards will likely be significantly more expensive than the official MSRP, particularly for higher-end versions.
  • While the base XFX RX 9070 XT Black SWIFT model has an MSRP of $150, the white version costs an extra $150.
  • Retailers worldwide face issues acquiring Radeon RX 9070 series GPUs at AMD’s official MSRP.

While every Radeon SKU has an MSRP model specified, the majority of XFX RX 9070 cards will be significantly more costly, which is bad news.

From earlier pricing at Best Buy, it’s quite clear that XFX has little interest in marketing its least expensive versions, which lack factory overclocking, RGB, and its new magnetically attached fans.

Why it matters: Higher prices for the RX 9070 GPUs could make them less affordable for many consumers, especially those on a budget.

It looks like buyers will need to pay more for a superior variant. Although the normal XFX 9070 XT Black SWIFT is priced at MSRP, you will still have to pay an additional $150 if you choose the white version.

Furthermore, many details regarding day-one pricing and stock levels have been made public before the launch. The good news is that shops worldwide appear to be certain that they have “ample” stock of Radeon RX 9070 series GPUs to satisfy demand on day one.

That said, it’s reported that retailers cannot purchase AMD Radeon RX 9070 series GPUs at MSRP. This seems to be a worldwide issue rather than one that affects Europe or North America.

Retailers must charge more for their products than they pay for them. Retailers cannot provide Radeon RX 9070 series GPUs to customers at AMD’s official MSRP price if they cannot purchase them from distributors at a discount to MSRP.
