AMD is expressing its gratitude to gamers, creators, and innovators by giving away five of its brand new Radeon RX 9070 XT graphics cards.
AMD’s latest Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 GPUs hit the market just a couple of days ago, performing impressively against the RTX 50 series competitors. They not only held their ground in terms of performance but were also readily available at launch, priced reasonably for eager buyers.
If you missed the chance to snag one, here’s some good news: AMD has announced a giveaway where five fortunate individuals can score these cutting-edge GPUs at no cost. Jack Huynh, AMD’s Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Computing and Graphics division, shared the exciting news on X. The giveaway kickstarts today and will continue over the next six days.
He enthusiastically tweeted about the RX 9070 XT launch, saying it’s a gesture of gratitude towards the community of gamers, creators, and innovators who continually fuel AMD’s inspiration. Among the five GPUs being given away, two are extra special, adorned with the autograph of AMD’s CEO, Dr. Lisa Su.
This giveaway is particularly targeting those in the USA and Canada, managed through Gleam, and acts as a ‘Thank You’ to the community. While it’s a bit of a bummer that this opportunity isn’t available globally, it’s an exciting prospect for eligible participants nonetheless.
Participants need to be at least 18 years old, and winners will have to provide their real name, address, and phone number for delivery. Although the winners might need to cover VAT or import taxes, the excitement of winning a free GPU overshadows this small caveat. Expect about a four-week wait post-announcement for the prize to arrive.
Details regarding whether the giveaway GPUs will be the standard reference models or if they’ll include custom AIB versions are still up in the air. Even so, the community has already begun diving into the giveaway. If you’re feeling lucky, make sure to enter using the provided link to not miss out.
As for the Radeon RX 9070 XT itself, it features a NAVI 48 die with 4096 SPS, 16 GB of GDDR6 VRAM, a 256-bit memory bus, and a boost clock speed reaching up to 3.1 GHz in its premium versions. Although it trails slightly behind the RTX 5070 Ti in speed, its $150 lower price makes it a fantastic value proposition.
