AMD’s RX 9070 series GPUs just dropped below MSRP in this one region
Table of Contents
AMD’s top new generation graphics cards are getting an even better value in Europe. Both the RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 ASUS Prime models have gotten a discount at a German retailer that drops them below their MSRP in Euros.
Having just been released a few months ago, the RX 9070 XT reviews claimed the title for being an impressively good value card that was an obvious choice over Nvidia. Although the non-XT wasn’t that much cheaper than the flagship, it didn’t make as much sense to buy.
However, currently, the cards listed on Alternate.de are both on sale, offering a savings of between €93 and €102. It seems that only the ASUS Prime 9070 XT and RX 9070 are on sale, with the next lowest-priced models significantly more expensive than these two.

Computerbase.de kept track of the best (lowest) pricing across various retailers in Germany. Ever since the release of the cards, the price has spiked and has been above it for a very long time. It’s only been going down since then, but it’s never been as good as this.
The RX 9070 XT in Europe (at least in Germany, it can differ slightly per country) has an MSRP of €689, and according to the site, it hasn’t gone below that since release. But that changed with this ASUS Prime discount, which is available for €639, €50 below the recommended price from AMD, making it all the more appealing to buy.
On the other hand, the RX 9070 has an MSRP of €629 in Europe, and the Prime model is now on sale for €569. That is a more impressive €60 below the retail price and makes a bit more sense, being much lower than the XT model.
As of writing, although the sale is still there, there is no stock available of the cards. If it is ever restocked at this point, we don’t know, but there are definitely gamers out there who enjoyed the great promotion. This sale comes at the same time as the RX 9060 XT launch on June 5th, which still has a solid amount of units in stock – particularly the cheaper 8GB model.
