AMD's mid-range Radeon RX 9070 GRE is now $499 on Newegg, a 9% drop from its $549 MSRP via an email discount. This makes it an attractive option for 1440p gamers amid rising GPU prices driven by memory shortages.

Launched globally on June 2nd after initially being a China-exclusive, the card features a Navi 48 XL GPU with 3,072 stream processors across 48 RDNA 4 CUs and 12 GB of GDDR6 on a 192-bit bus. It sits below the Radeon RX 9070 non-XT, which has 3,584 stream processors.

While some SKUs still retail at MSRP, prices often exceed it regionally. The current discount improves the value proposition noted in earlier reviews. TechPowerUp notes no affiliate relationship, simply flagging the deal for enthusiasts.
