AMD’s Radeon RX 9000 series of GPUs spent just a few days on the retail market, and they are already sold out. If you are wondering just how many have been sold, AMD has a number for you. According to the information shared at the AI PC Innovation Summit in Beijing, AMD claims that it has sold as many as 200,000 Radeon RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT graphics cards in the first wave. Current retail channels show severely constrained inventory for AMD’s latest GPUs, though supply chain forecasts indicate normalization expected by early Q2. Board partners have implemented significant price premiums across their custom-designed variants, with RX 9070 XT models commanding up to $200 above AMD’s reference pricing structure. While AMD has issued statements advocating for adherence to suggested retail figures, the company maintains a hands-off approach to partner pricing strategies, acknowledging the market dynamics of premium component allocation.

The initial allocation bottleneck should resolve as manufacturing capacity scales to meet demand, potentially stabilizing both availability and price points by mid-April. Yeston, one of AMD’s longest-standing AIBs, has suggested that “now the supply is unstable, but we will restock every week. Please don’t be frustrated if you didn’t get it. The supply will become stable and continue to be available after April.” However, we still don’t understand how AMD is counting these sales. The company noted that the first wave has been sold, and that is likely their first shipment of Navi 48 SKU from TSMC. When TSMC ships more chips, AMD distributes them to its AIB partners for assembly. That could be the second wave. As these GPUs are ordered months in advance, AMD’s AIBs are likely already shipping the next wave of GPUs to retail stores.

Update 21:00 UTC: AMD clarified for Tom’s Hardware that the initial sales claim seems to be a mistake made by the original source, BenchLife. Reportedly no sales numbers were given out the event. The report page has seen seemingly deleted by BenchLife.
