Where to buy AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070: these are the best retailers in the US and UK
Refresh
There’s a wide range of prices on cards already listed
I was just browsing Overclocker’s stock of cards in the UK just now – and as expected, some of these AIB cards are much, much higher priced than the £569 MSRP that AMD stated.
There are a few cards listed at £569, like this Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 9070 XT at Overclockers but they range all the way up to £799 for this Asus Radeon RX 9070 XT TUF, which is quite a variance for a card of this price point. Just based on traffic, it looks like the cheaper cards are getting more attention at the retailer right now so it could be worth jumping on those quickly if you’re interested.
It’s looking good for stock at one UK retailer
We’re used to getting burnt when it comes to GPU launches recently – most people are still waiting to get their hands on one of the latest Nvidia cards, for example. It’s too early to say whether the AMD RX 9070 and AMD RX 9070 XT will be any different, but Overclockers in the UK has teased that they have over 1,000 cards in stock on its official forum.
This is a stark contrast to the RTX 5090 and 5080 launches last month where most retailers were reportedly selling stock in the single digits. Again, it’s too early to say whether these cards will sell out but availability is looking much, much better this time around.
When are retailers going live with sales?
Right now, the only retailer that I can see with a confirmed time for sales is Overclockers in the UK, which has stated that cards will be available to buy from 2PM GMT. That will be 9AM ET for those of us joining in the US.
As of writing, I haven’t seen any word from US retailers but I expect that 2PM GMT / 9AM ET is the world wide embargo for sales. We’ll of course be on the lookout for stock in the meantime, however.
