This GIGABYTE RX 9070 Gaming OC balances speed, features, and build quality in the $550–$700 range, making it a compelling mid-range option especially if you prioritize future ready features like FSR 4, RDNA 4 ray tracing, and PCIe 5.0. If you see thermal issues with your unit, a thermal pad swap could offer a quick fix. Strengths Potential Drawbacks Excellent raster and ray tracing performance VRAM thermals may benefit from aftermarket pads Cutting-edge features: FSR 4, HYPR-RX6, PCIe 5.0 Slightly above MSRP; consider 9070 XT if available Advanced, efficient cooling and solid build Limited adoption of FSR 4 titles (as of mid-2025). It looks great. Read more

Small beast for an amazing price! GET IT NOW!!!! I had to sell my last 9070XT due to personal problems and then saved up the money to get a new one, saw this one and was impressed for the price. It is small but it is POWERFUL, I was skeptical at first as I thought a smaller card wouldn’t have the same power but was completely wrong. If you’re thinking on which card to get, get this one, won’t ever regret it!!!!! Read more

I got this card when I had prime (which got me a slight discount). Right now with GPU prices not going down too much so I picked this up. I upgrade from a 2070 Super and it plays the games I care about and this card has good raster performance. Granted this card will now be able to use FSR4 and have better Raytracing (but still doesn't compare to the NVIDIA cards). I also got this card given how shady NVIDIA has been lately with its 5000 series cards. It preforms much better than my old card. Make sure you do setup a proper fan curve in the AMD Adrenaline software and find a good guide to tune the card as the power draw and heat an get high. That and tuning the card correctly will get you pretty good performance with lower temps and fan noise (especially if you're really susceptible to fan noise). Although I said to tune the fan curve, the fan is not too bad at all (I barely hear it over my radiator fans). I currently run this card on the performance mode. Finally, the card is pretty small compared to the the other cards around this generation. So much so, you won't need to buy a GPU brace if you have reinforced PCI-Slots and the extra support with the expansion card bracket. If you want good performance with rasterized graphics this is the card for you. If you want better raytracing, I wouldn't really pick this card up (it's better but not great that's for sure).

Got it for my first PC after looking for a while. Prices for GPU's are all over the place and can get absolutely absurd depending on what you look for, but this GPU offers really performance at a reasonable price point, and the option to overclock and tune it right from the AMD software makes it even better if you know what to do. I can run CS 2 at 4K pretty much locked in at 144fps at very high setting and the gpu barely hits 50° and if I push the overclock a bit, I think I could get another 5 to 10% performance from it, but I prefer to just run a cooler build. There might be more powerfull cards, even from gigabyte itself, but I can't really see a reason to spend a few hundred dollar more iny case. Read more

Working well so far on newer 4K games. Started getting a few crashes and glitches on CP2077 I wasn’t getting with the prior Nvidia 3060 TI. Not a fan of the non-driver AMD software that comes with it - Nvidia game optimization software is more straightforward and simple (just press an OPTIMIZE button, that’s it). That’s about all I got right now. It’s a new world with AI scaling / optimization - making it a lot harder to tell what brute force gets you among the newer GPU cards; unless you’re card swapping and running A/B tests, focusing on hair jaggies / clarity in a magnified section of the screen, etc. You won’t be displeased with your purchase.

Best GPU on the market for the price, quality is impeccable and performs better than anything on the market for this price range. No noise at all, temperature runs consistent and no issues with gaming Read more

This is actually the most shortest RX 9070 XT currently available, at "only" 288mm (11.3 in) long, and one of the narrowest, coming in at 2.8 slots wide. Gigabyte also does not state the weight of the card on their spec sheet, but I have seen it listed at 2.78 lb or 1261g at other retailers. This is light enough that Gigabyte doesn't include a stand. And IMO, it doesn't need one. Compare this to the biggest card, the XFX Mercury, at 5.18 lb or 2350g -- the Gigabyte Gaming OC is nearly half the card. So you might think that its thermal performance would be underwhelming. Yet it runs cool and quiet despite pulling 330W under load, and they even somehow managed to cram a vapor chamber into the design. It's also backed by a three-year warranty in case you have concerns about endurance. Meanwhile, the RGB is restricted to a small logo on the side, which cycles through a bright rainbow of colors by default. I prefer a stealth build, so thankfully you can adjust this or turn it off with the company's Gigabyte Control Center software. Though I have heard that this app is a bit shoddy, so I wouldn't use it to adjust performance. Using AMD's Adrenaline software instead, you can undervolt and adjust the power limit with sliders, and here you will discover that you can actually get higher clock speeds, less heat and less fan noise by reducing voltage and power limits. Apparently the clocks hit a thermal ceiling by default, so reducing voltage and power can make them go higher. However, this can introduce some instability (regardless of the video card brand), so some games and apps may crash if your settings are too ambitious. Overall, I have been pretty pleased with this relatively compact card. RDNA4 introduces a huge boost in ray tracing -- 40-50% higher than my 6900 XT. And raster performance is about 30% higher on average. Then there's FSR4, whose image quality is within spitting distance of DLSS4 (though it's not supported by as many games). A few tweaks to the voltage and power limits can also bring this card's efficiency well in line with the RTX 5070 Ti -- with performance to match, depending on the game. I had my doubts about this specific model after looking at its dimensions and weight, but it has proved to be a pleasant surprise. Read more

- The 9070 XT has been a great card so far, offering great rasterization performance and upscaling with FSR4. RT performance is much better than my 6800, but it's just not that important to me. The card has been very stable thus far - I am not doing any major OCing or undervolting. I play @ 1440p max settings in most titles, and it handles it without a sweat. - GPU Temperature hangs around 50-60°C, and Hot Spot around 70°C when gaming. - The size is one of the best aspects; it's 288mm long, and takes up ~3 slots, which makes it a lot easier to fit into smaller cases. Big difference from the 340mm card I was coming from. - Major downside is that the default fan curve is insanely loud. I do not consider myself to be sensitive to loud systems, but I recommend tweaking the curve in Adrenaline. *If you download and open the Gigabyte software to change the RGB light bar color, it will reset the fan curve* - So, I just set it to white and forget about it. - Overall, I am happy with this card - I obtained this one at launch for the retail price, and would not have spent more on it.
