Sapphire is an exclusive AMD partner with a long track record of well-designed Radeon graphics cards. Initially launched as China only, around May 2025, the RX 9070 GRE fits between the RX 9060 XT and RX 9070, offering a Navi 48 GPU configuration.<\/p>\n<div class=\"responsive-image-xx\" style=\"width:670px\">\n<figure style=\"padding-top:52.239%\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tpucdn.com\/review\/sapphire-radeon-rx-9070-gre-pulse\/images\/title.jpg\" width=\"670\" height=\"350\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>The RX 9070 GRE uses AMD&#8217;s Navi 48 XL GPU with 3,072 streaming processors across 48 RDNA 4 computing units, paired with 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, providing 432 GB\/s of bandwidth. The &#8220;GRE&#8221; suffix stands for &#8220;Golden Rabbit Edition,&#8221; a naming convention AMD introduced with the RX 7900 GRE. RDNA 4 brings significant improvements in ray tracing performance\u2014AMD claims up to twice the RT performance per compute unit compared to RDNA 3\u2014and dedicated AI accelerators built into compute units for the first time. These AI accelerators are at the heart of AMD&#8217;s card: they power FSR 4, the first version of AMD&#8217;s overclocking technology that uses on-chip machine learning hardware instead of shader-based algorithms. Previous versions of FSR ran on any GPU but were limited in image quality; FSR 4 is designed to bridge the gap with NVIDIA&#8217;s DLSS. FSR 4 and frame generation are supported in more than 300 games. Priced at &#8220;starting at $550,&#8221; AMD positions the RX 9070 GRE as filling the gap between the RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5070. The card connects via PCI-Express 5.0 x16 and supports DisplayPort 2.1a UHBR13.5 for a display result with a high refresh rate. AMD&#8217;s dual VCN media engine provides hardware acceleration for AV1, H.265, and H.264 encoding and decoding.<\/p>\n<p>Sapphire&#8217;s Pulse implementation features a dual-fan cooler with a compact PCB design, powered by two 8-pin PCIe connectors.<\/p>\n<div class=\"table-wrapper\">\n<table class=\"tputbl hilight vga-specs-table\">\n<caption>AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE Market Segment
