RX 9070 and New X3D Processors Could Launch in Late February

Despite its own projections, AMD may launch the new Radeon RX 9070 graphics cards as early as late February, moving the expected release up by a month. According to insiders, the announcement will be part of a large-scale event that will also debut new Ryzen processors with X3D technology—an unusual move for the company’s typical spring cycle.
Sources indicate that AMD has adjusted its schedule to minimize the gap between the announcement and the official launch, now slated for March. This strategic shift not only strengthens AMD’s position against NVIDIA but also allows the company to gain an edge before the "green team" releases its new GPUs, also expected in March. Interestingly, the RDNA 4 launch was initially delayed due to driver optimizations, but it seems the team has managed to speed up the process without compromising quality.
Pairing GPUs with X3D processors is no coincidence—it’s a deliberate move to create synergy between components for gamers, offering a more comprehensive upgrade path. Analysts note that if the leaked specs hold true, the RX 9070 could shake up the market by delivering top-tier ray tracing performance in the mid-range segment. However, pricing remains a key concern: can AMD strike the right balance between innovation and affordability, especially with rising chip costs?
