AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE Review: A Shrinkflation GPU in a Tough Market
AMD's Radeon RX 9070 GRE launches at $549 with reduced specs (85% GPU cores, 75% memory, 66% memory bandwidth of RX 9070), feeling like 'shrinkflation'. It performs 10-20% slower than RX 9070 at 1440p, often slower than Nvidia's RTX 5070, especially with ray-tracing. While it matches some older high-end Nvidia cards, its 12GB RAM limits 4K performance, and it consumes the same power as the full RX 9070, making it less efficient.
