All other parts are not exceeding the MSRP.
Doesn't make sense if other parts cost itself exceeded and push the price higher.

My place seller said it take them maybe next week to restock 9070XT too.
So i just go ahead to book it.
It is still unfortunate that they don't have some other part in stock.
I still sourced some other stuff via shopee as the shop not able to get the stuff that i need for my build.

I did prefer if they can get it ready everything and build since i am quite lazy to do build myself.
but with the way it is now, i am still need do the build myself.

AMD distro over here is weird la. US price difference for these 2 model is $130 but for MY become only RM300. Might as well straight go for Nitro+. Was expecting minimum RM500

cos some seller offer some parts that u may not need, like i don need 7800x3d and x870 mobo, i wan go for 7700 and cheaper mobo b850, but price lower than 10k so seller don wan. then casing and cooler they also put in expensive one so the price will be around 10k. this is wat i meant, some they put in parts that are not of good value, just to sell u everything at higher price.

they wan push ppl to buy nitro+ version lol. based version too low price kenot, later no ppl buy 9070.

That AMD own fault la. Only $50 different so how AIB want to make low & high models. example Sapphire still make Nitro & Pulse for 9070. Pulse 9070 is $549 Nitro+ 9070 is $599 but Pulse 9070XT is $599. Gamer mindset confirm will go for Pulse 9070XT same price but get more performance. 3-6 months later after new gen hype die down AMD no choice but to lower 9070 price around $499. Too bad for MY, we wont get same experience.

Ya, some seller did do that when i try to get quotes from them.
but the shop that i went still reasonable as they let me choose the part that i want. for those item that they don't have stock, i am okay for them to find distributor but end up wasn't able to find.
I am still following the previous recommended spec by fellow lyn in rig suggestion.

i went for 7500F and b650 mobo, so far my total cost is around 8.5K which is reasonable for ITX build.

Ya, MY distributor is really weird for the pricing.
I was hopeful that it cost around 3.2K max but once saw pricing reach 3.5K.
I go ahead to went for Nvidia

here only got 1 shop ada sell 5070ti lol. small town in sarawak hence kena force hand by pc shop. normally i don buy from local shop, but now even shopee also don have stock lol and even ridiculous pricing.

maybe wait awhile and see other AIB. 9070xt RT performance for heavy RT game still trailing nvidia alot. more important is the pricing la, pricing too close to nvidia, better just wait for stock.

AMD SEA prices smoking weed again as usual XD

Ya, I am all in for AMD as long as price is cheaper. But for mere RM500 difference, i would rather go for Nvidia instead.
Nvidia is still better in term of RT heavy games compared to AMD.

as usual, AMD in MY is still not back to reality that they are behind and pricing it so closed to Nvidia.

Radeons post-5000 era had always been bad value at launch. Wait 1 year later then prices drop like heck, ie 7800xt now is < RM 2k.

Majority gamers: "AMD local prices makes my Geforce purchases look worthwhile even with scalping."

End up I just proceed with my 7800xt purchase since 9070 Xt price is more than expected , upgrading from 1060 so should be a major upgrade .

AMD Malaysia logic :

Since the 9070 XT performance is almost same as 5070ti, we should price it around the same as well.

9070 price in msia is approx. +rm1k premium over the msrp

worth it over 5070 or 5070 Ti? i'm not sure. depends. since both amd and nvidia cards are overpriced here.

probably better to wait for deals.

Actually not rrally if u see sapphire nitro msrp is 730usd which is 3.2k. But of cos, the base version price is marked up lol.

Probably can say like that, the msrp set by nvidia and amd is too low and too good to be true

Im glad that I pulled the trigger to build a PC with RTX4070 last 2 weeks . I already thought maybe I should wait for RX9070 but my instinct say it will be close to RM4000 rather than RM3500. I bought the RTX4070 with less than RM3000(brand new with warranty) which I would say a good price and performance compared to RTX5070 at that time.

And their actually happy getting that 10% marketshare with these prices

Malaysia market too small for AMD global them to give a shit
