chill brah, if you open shopee you can see 9070xt for rm3700 already. the situation is improving.

You came back at the wrong time. Please go back and hibernate for another 6- 12months then check out the scene again if it havent yet turn into stairway to scalper heaven.

EDIT: its ironic that its cheaper to get a PS5 for gaming + laptop for PC use + gamer mouse & mech keyboard, and not only you get portability than a desktop PC but also better general usage.

Yea more power to console gamers, if just looking purely at gaming...and your favourite games are available on that console.

PC is still flexible in many ways, and the game pool is also larger than any other console. Plus, you can emulate older games too, and work on video/graphical softwares on your PC that has GPU

We can't avoid scalpers ever in this life, because they are "traders" that are also scrapping to pay bills and put food on the table (I think).

Scalpers already happen wayyyy back in time few hundred years back (esp during the heyday of Melaka Port) so it's nothing new.

if you are building a new rig, maybe not so bad because you can get lesser rip-off price buy getting the bundle.

Its going up nevertheless

No choice, I had to settle for a used RX 6800 XT earlier this month. The deal was too good to skip even for new Arc B580.

Markup is shit.

How much did you bought your 6800xt?

RM900 for XFX SWFT.

Wow thats a steal.

Don't forget there is 1080p option. Getting a monitor with cheaper GPU is cheaper.

just upgrade to RX 9070 XT from GTX 1070

My 650W PSU can't handle RX 9070 XT power requirements even with undervolt

keep rebooting during heavy scene in game

had to upgrade to 850W PSU



Bought Sapphire RX 9070 XT Pure not bundle with PC

what is the price of the card without bundle?I'm getting it today too.

RM3999, I pay for the convenience tax

last card on the shelves, bought it at SL-Integrated Brem Mall

bought it on 18/3

I think Just IT shop still have RX 9070 for sale for RM32++

Website ady mention it sucks 317W so how come you think 650W is enuff?

for rx9000 series, undervolting means getting more performance out of the same power usage.
to reduce power usage (or for your case peak/spike power), you need to reduce the power limit.

Because someone from Reddit manage to get the power draw to under 220W




I try it and able to limit the power to -30%

no temp drop but power under 250W

then you may be able to use back your 650w psu lol.
650w works fine with 7800xt with 250w tdp btw.

But why wanna kneecap perf of your GPU when its just a matter of insufficient PSU? Might as well save the money and get 9070 nonXT and still use the 650W to get the same perf.

Finally completed my build. waited the graphic card for 5 months.

9070xt chip is highly binned (full gpu cores), undervolted and power limited 9070xt will perform better than vanilla 9070.
the main reason why 9070xt is power hog because amd want to have 9070xt as close to 5070ti as possible. everyone knows amd like to push more voltage on their xt and xtx model for better performance and long term stability. if the users want more efficiency, feel free to tune it as they provide the necessary tool in their driver software.
