B&H Photo Video—a Manhattan, NY-based electronics retailer—has leaked out a possible late March launch date for AMD's opening salvo of RDNA 4 graphics cards. Four ASUS Radeon RX 9070 series SKUs are currently visible (via a search) on the shop's webstore—all listings sport a tag stating: "pre-order starts at 09:00 a.m ET, Sunday Mar 23." VideoCardz reckons that the product pages have been freshly updated—changing the previously listed date: January 23. Officially, Team Red has moved its Radeon RX 9070 XT and Radeon RX 9070 (non-XT) launch windows into March, but a specific date was not set.

B&H's listings could contain placeholder information—product launches and opening of pre-orders do not (under normal circumstances) occur over weekends. In this case, potentially on a Sunday. The New York City retailer has prepared very basic product pages for two TUF Gaming cards and two PRIME models—names and SKU codes appear to correspond with previous leaks. Artline, a Ukrainian PC hardware store, opened up an ASUS TUF GAMING Radeon RX 9070 XT OC package. MyGear took similar steps with a PRIME Radeon RX 9070 model.

That date is so far of, what a shame. I really wanted to do comparisons between AMD and nGreedia before buying my RTX card, guess it's team green then.

I mean, we aren't in the US or Western EU. So launch stock will be like 5 cards for our countries at best... you might still have the time to pick. I'm not expecting having my 5090 at least until mid April if not early May.

Meh, when I see stuff like this I think - "when is a leak not a leak, when it was sanctioned by the manufacturer"

I am hoping however thats AMD has an ace up its sleeve, but I wont hold my breath.
