Will AMD ever release a 9090XT?

[THE LORD]

You know, to rival nvidia RTX 5090 which has proven to be a flop due to fire hazard, jacked up prices and limited availability.

AMD should capitalize on this and release the 9090 XT.

nah man, amd has given up competing on the high tier card, the dream has gone

Lisa su is missing out on a great opportunity to deal her uncle jensen huang a heavy blow. And yes, they are relatives. Jensen is lisa's distant uncle.

AMD had a good thing going, until the 9070 pricing got bumped up to the $700+ ranges.

They can't, AMD uses more power to get the same result so a 5090 rival would draw 700/800W.

They do have room to release a bigger die GPU peg it at 550W, might be a 5080 killer, hard to know when just speculating, you could do the maths to get a rough idea but power draw vs performance isn't linear so still tricky to be accurate.

There is no need to do that when the market is too small to matter.

Margins are something you chase when you have nothing to lose by chasing them; you never invest to chase margins.

Of course there is, market leader mind share is what sells lower end GPU's too, it's why Nvidia rocks a 90% market share at the moment.

Maybe, but it will come after 60, 50, 40, which are already announced. After that, they may add 80s or 90s or maybe a 70XTX

Hmmm...
They could, but what's the point of making a single 9090XT when for the same silicon a couple of Ryzen 9 9950X3Ds can bring more profit?

[tyl0413]

They should, RT is actually okay this gen, their encoder improved, Im tired of how the market has been for the past 5 years and I doubt it'll improve anytime soon so I'm trying to get a 5080 so that I dont have to upgrade for hopefully close to 10 years. If AMD had something more powerful i'd absolutely be considering it, 5080 still faster than 9070XT even with the crap linux drivers, imagine how much better a high end AMD card would run on linux.

Wait for next gen udna. That's when they will probably compete in each segment with NVIDIA

AMD are too busy licking Nvidia boot to make such a card. All thier innovation was blown on the cpu side. And uncle Jensen will never allow it. Why would anyone want a 2k AMD card? What would it run 4k 240hz?


Well no because AMD used a half baked cheap version of the DP 2.1 spec and its only 54GB not 80GB no ask yourself would you want that lot making such a card?


I mean lets say you play older games... You know the ones that can keep a steady 120 framerate and you buy a shiny new 2025 4k 240hz OLED and oops you cant run that on AMD lol too bad AMD know better than you about your own usage statistics what a bonkers company...

What the heck...

It doesn't matter what is being released or what the MSRP is announced to be if the majority of consumers aren't able to get said product.

Not necessarily.

The 9070 XT does about as expected at a TDP range of 275-320W

7900 XTX is rated for 350-420W

If AMD was serious and did it right they could probably do a 4090 level GPU and stay around 500W. Even a 4090 you can under volt it and push it to use less max power while still maintaining peak performance in most things
