The AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT is a high-end graphics card based on AMD's Navi 48 (N48 XTX) chip, featuring 64 CUs (32 WGP). The model will feature 16 GB of GDDR6 VRAM with a 256-bit bus and 64 MB of total cache.
Performance
According to some leaks, the RX 9070 XT is expected to sit somewhere between the RTX 4080 and the RTX 4080 Super in terms of performance. However, there is also some (unconfirmed) evidence that the card will be on par with the RTX 4070 Ti.
Our tests show that the card is 6% to 11% faster overall than the smaller-grade RX 9070 in professional applications and benchmarks. The gaming performance of the RX 9070 XT is 11% higher than that of the smaller model overall. Quite interestingly, the RTX 4080 Super fits right between two Radeon sister models (9% slower than the 9070 XT and 3% faster than the 9070). With that said, the standard RTX 4080 is 13% slower than the RX 9070.
Power consumption
The Radeon RX 9070 XT requires 304 watts; however, custom versions of the card can feature up to 330 watts of power.
