Note: This is an ongoing review. Additional gaming tests and measurements will be added shortly.
AMD first introduced Golden Rabbit Edition (or Great Radeon Edition) GPUs as China-exclusive cards, starting with the Navi 31 Radeon RX 7900 GRE in July 2023.
Later that year, AMD also introduced the Navi 22-based RX 6750 GRE in 10 GB and 12 GB variants.
While the RX 6750 GRE wasn't officially launched globally, AMD did bring the RX 7900 GRE worldwide at a $549 MSRP.
Now, AMD is repeating the story with the new Navi 48-based RX 9070 GRE. The card originally launched in China in May 2025 but will now be available globally, starting at the same $549 MSRP as the RX 9070.

The test system: Radeon RX 9070 GRE goes well with the Core i9-14900K
Our test setup to evaluate the RX 9070 GRE is comprised of the following components:
- Cooler Master MasterFrame 700 open test bench
- Intel Core i9-14900K with Intel Extreme profile set in the BIOS
- Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Master motherboard
- Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus Gen4 2 TB NVMe SSD and 2x Crucial MX500 1 TB SATA SSDs for OS, benchmarks, and games

The selection of devices to be reviewed is made by our editorial team. The test sample was provided to the author as a loan by the manufacturer or retailer for the purpose of this review. The lender had no influence on this review, nor did the manufacturer receive a copy of this review before publication. There was no obligation to publish this review. As an independent media company, Notebookcheck is not subjected to the authority of manufacturers, retailers or publishers.
This is how Notebookcheck is testing
Every year, Notebookcheck independently reviews hundreds of laptops and smartphones using standardized procedures to ensure that all results are comparable. We have continuously developed our test methods for around 20 years and set industry standards in the process. In our test labs, high-quality measuring equipment is utilized by experienced technicians and editors. These tests involve a multi-stage validation process. Our complex rating system is based on hundreds of well-founded measurements and benchmarks, which maintains objectivity. Further information on our test methods can be found here.
