Notes on 9 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE, Release date: Chinese retail deliveries began May 8, 2025; the global launch followed at Computex 2026.
  2. 2AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE, Launch price: Global launch MSRP $549; Chinese AIB cards started at ¥4,199 (≈$450 per Notebookcheck).
  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 9070 XT, Boost clock: TechSpot's 2400 MHz figure is AMD's 'game' clock; the boost rating is 2970 MHz.
  5. 5AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE, Power connectors: AIB-only card; most listed partner models use two 8-pin connectors (Yeston Sakura variants use three).
  6. 6AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT, Power connectors: Corsair notes a few partner 90-series cards use 12V-2x6; the vast majority use 2x 8-pin.
  7. 7AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT, DisplayPort version: TechPowerUp specifies the DisplayPort outputs as UHBR13.5.
  8. 8AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE, HDMI outputs: AMD sells no retail reference card; port counts are for AMD's reference design as listed by VideoCardz.
  9. 9AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE, DisplayPort outputs: AMD sells no retail reference card; port counts are for AMD's reference design as listed by VideoCardz.

Performance and Power

The RX 9070 XT takes a major lead in processing power with 4,096 shader cores and a 2,970 MHz boost clock, delivering 48.7 TFLOPS of FP32 compute. This raw horsepower translates to faster frame rates in demanding titles.

Yet, that performance demands more energy. The XT pulls 304 W and requires a 750 W power supply, while the GRE operates at a much leaner 220 W board power and needs only a 650 W PSU.

Memory and Bandwidth

Memory architecture sets a clear boundary between these two graphics cards. The XT equips 16 GB of GDDR6 video memory across a 256-bit bus, reaching 640 GB/s of memory bandwidth at 20 Gbps.

The GRE steps down to 12 GB on a narrower 192-bit bus, delivering 432 GB/s at 18 Gbps with a 48 MB last-level cache compared to the XT's 64 MB cache. For high-resolution textures and future-proofing, the wider bus and larger frame buffer give the XT a distinct advantage.

The Verdict

Buy the AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE if you want a more efficient card that lowers power requirements and saves money at $549. Buy the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT if you need maximum compute power, 16 GB of VRAM, and higher memory bandwidth.

FAQ

What power connectors do these cards require?

The GRE uses an 8-pin connector, though most partner models use two 8-pin connectors and Yeston Sakura variants use three. The vast majority of XT models use two 8-pin connectors, while a few partner cards use 12V-2x6.

Do both cards support the same display outputs?

Yes, both reference designs feature one HDMI 2.1b port and three DisplayPort 2.1a ports.
