Rumors indicate that AMD is preparing a major launch event in late January, potentially unveiling the Radeon RX 9070 XT, FSR 4 technology, and the Ryzen 9000X3D CPU.
Radeon RX 9070 XT and FSR 4
According to reliable AMD leaker Hoang Anh Phu, the Radeon RX 9070 XT, AMD's next-generation RDNA 4 graphics card, will debut alongside FSR 4 technology. This new naming scheme suggests that AMD may be skipping the 8000 series for its discrete GPUs, with the 8000 series reportedly reserved for integrated graphics in the Strix Halo APU. FSR 4 is described as "fully AI-based," marking a significant advancement in AMD's upscaling technology.
Ryzen 9000X3D CPU
The same leaker also suggests that the Ryzen 9 9000X3D is also set to launch at the same time. The leaker has previously hinted at an end-of-January release for this CPU.
A Hot January for Graphics
These potential releases, combined with rumored launches from NVIDIA (RTX 5080) and Intel (Arc B570), suggest that January 2025 will be an exciting period for the graphics market. Consumers will have many options to consider with these major hardware announcements on the horizon.
