AMD has gone big with the new Radeon RX 9070 XT, and I don't just mean because it's an absolutely monstrously large GPU. This is the first time in a very, very long time where AMD is releasing a brand new graphics card that isn't just toeing the same line Nvidia has already drawn in the sand.
The new RDNA 4 card is doing the thing we've been wanting AMD to do for the longest time: Take Nvidia to task on price and deliver a graphics card that can genuinely outperform its nearest rival. For too long, AMD has been happy to follow the green team's lead, happy to price its own cards to match up with the tiering structure of the GeForce cards and the feed off the same ludicrous pricing for its own GPUs.
