AMD has confirmed that Radeon RX 9070 graphics cards will go on sale this March, and the later launch could help it fight the mid-range Nvidia RTX 5070.

AMD is expected to officially show off its two new RDNA 4 graphics cards before the end of the month, after revealing little at CES.

AMD announced the new RDNA 4 cards at CES without a release date beyond “Q1,” and AMD exec David McAfee later narrowed that window to “March.” Now, we just heard AMD CEO Lisa Su narrow it further to “early March” on the company’s Q4 earnings call.

AMD is finally ready to launch its RDNA 4 gaming GPUs, with the Radeon RX 9070 and Radeon RX 9070 XT arriving in early March according to CEO Dr. Lisa Su.

AMD has confirmed its Radeon RX 9000 series GPUs will launch in early March, ending weeks of speculation. The company initially briefed press at CES 2025 but omitted the GPUs from its keynote, leading to uncertainty about their release timeline.

CEO Lisa Su confirms that the first graphics cards from the 9000 series will be released at the beginning of March. The specific date discussed is March 6.

AMD's CEO mentioned the potential release of the Radeon RX 9070 series in early March. The new RDNA 4 architecture in the Radeon 9070 series offers better ray tracing performance. Preorders for the upcoming GPUs may start in late February if AMD sticks to the release date.
