AMD Radeon RX 9070 / 9070 XT review: back to winning ways


DF tests the RX 9070 and 9070 XT. On this page: we introduce our test system, benchmarking methodology and initial impressions.

There's still going to be a mountain to climb in terms of mind share, but these new RDNA 4 graphics cards include two critical pieces of the puzzle: a viable alternative to DLSS in the form of FSR 4 and significantly improved ray tracing performance. Ahead of our RX 9070 and 9070 XT video review going live later, we have Alex's analysis of FSR 4 - a key component of these new GPUs. A boost clock of 2.54GHz on the non-XT up against 2.97GHz on the XT shows quite a divide - but as you'll see shortly, the gap on these Sapphire models is much tighter.
