Funny why they needed to do that coz they supposedly had been stockpiling 9070s since Jan wat (the supposed original launch date). Maybe their trying to ride the luck from Nvidia shortages which may catch Radeon fanbois & those despo for any GPU but I dont see this continuing for long, maybe a month or 2 before they release ala carte sale simply coz who then would wanna buy a Radeon if they willing to wait for 5000series?

Much better, while RT performance still leaves much to be desired compared to the 5070 Ti, the fact that there is decent availability (at least outside MY) should hopefully pressure Nvidia into improving their inventory levels 

I may consider going for a 5070 Ti as I owned a couple of Radeon GPUs if I can get one at a more sensible pricing (hopefully they can sort out the missing ROPs and the software problems)

Considering retail price of 3.5K, i make my decision to proceed with Nvidia 5070Ti @ RM3999.

Ya, it was part of bundle.
but i am okay with that as i am doing full build anyway.

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

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 

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.

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

Maybe they just happy their still doing better than Intel ARC at least!

If price gap between rx9070xt and 5070ti isn't that big might as well get 5070ti. Raster performance is comparable but ray tracing Nvidia wins by a mile.

Would be an easy buy if 9070xt priced around 3k, gonna sit this one out and come back in a few months time hopefully stock and prices get better 🙏.

Wow 4k for 9070

You need to add 10% import and 6% SST plus shipping. Shipping stock to here isn't free.

Sorry to inform you that import/export of GPU is not taxed in Malaysia.
