Failed to get an AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT at launch for MSRP? Yeah, me too, join the club, we've got plenty of members right now. This graphics card launch wasn't even the worst we've seen recently (cough, GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, cough), with a feeling at least that some actual GPUs could be bought within the first few minutes if you were very fast and very lucky.
But, still, here I am frustrated along with thousands of other PC gamers, AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT-less, having once again fought a losing battle against what now feels like almost impossible odds each time a new GPU is launched. As my colleague Wes Fenlon has recently so aptly put, we all deserve better than this, and if you haven't read his piece on his misadventures in trying to buy a new GPU himself, then I'd wholeheartedly recommend it.
