Notes on 18 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Release date: First retail sale December 13, 2022; announced November 3, 2022.
  2. 2AMD Radeon RX 9070, Launch price: AMD's $549 starting MSRP at launch; AMD sells no reference card, so partner models may cost more.
  3. 3AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT, Launch price: TechSpot reports AMD subsidizes this MSRP with a $50 retailer rebate, so street prices often run higher.
  4. 4AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Launch price: AMD's launch figure is the SEP (suggested e-commerce price); partner cards often sold higher.
  5. 5AMD Radeon RX 9070, Boost clock: Peak 'up to' boost; AMD's game clock is 2070 MHz for typical gaming.
  6. 6AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT, Boost clock: TechSpot's 2400 MHz figure is AMD's 'game' clock; the boost rating is 2970 MHz.
  7. 7AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Boost clock: Boost is a burst maximum; typical gaming runs near the 2300 MHz game clock.
  8. 8AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Memory bandwidth: AMD also quotes 3500 GB/s 'effective' bandwidth with Infinity Cache; 960 GB/s is the raw VRAM figure.
  9. 9AMD Radeon RX 9070, Board power: Partner overclocked cards can exceed 220 W; IGN measured 249 W peaks on a factory-OC card.
  10. 10AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Recommended PSU: AMD's 800W minimum assumes a Ryzen 9 5900X-class system; other builds may need more headroom.
  11. 11AMD Radeon RX 9070, Power connectors: Two 8-pin PCIe power connectors are required (2x 8-pin per AMD and Sapphire).
  12. 12AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT, Power connectors: Corsair notes a few partner 90-series cards use 12V-2x6; the vast majority use 2x 8-pin.
  13. 13AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Power connectors: The reference card uses two 8-pin connectors.
  14. 14AMD Radeon RX 9070, DisplayPort version: Club386 lists the DP 2.1a link rate as UHBR13.5; UHBR20 is not supported.
  15. 15AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT, DisplayPort version: TechPowerUp specifies the DisplayPort outputs as UHBR13.5.
  16. 16AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, DisplayPort version: DisplayPort 2.1 runs UHBR 13.5, up to 54Gbps of display link bandwidth per AMD.
  17. 17AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Hardware encode: AMD's spec table marks 4K H264 Encode, H265/HEVC Encode and AV1 Encode all as Yes.
  18. 18AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, Video encoders: AMD describes a Dual Media Engine, i.e. two encode/decode engines, capable of simultaneous 8K60 HEVC streams.
