A real 1440p gaming workhorse for $549? In this economy!?
AMD's middle RDNA 4 graphics card delivers fine performance, but a bolder price would have truly changed the game
AMD finally is able to challenge Nvidia's dominant RTX 5060 Ti globally with the new RX 9070 GRE.
AMD released the RX 9070 GRE with 12GB VRAM (vs 16GB) at $550, a specs-down compromise due to VRAM price inflation. The move signals AMD's strategy under supply constraints: maintain pricing over performance, limiting 4K viability for 1440p gaming upgrades.
With GPUs in limited supply, AMD is relying on a cut-down graphics card to take up the slack.
