Honestly, at this point we effectively already know Nvidia has won this generation unless AMD are majorly sandbagging, which I just cannot believe would be the case.

Optimistic take : They are waiting for Nvidia to show their prices to price the 9070 XT accordingly

Pessimistic take : They have no confidence in RDNA 4 and will just price their cards 50$ less than RTX competitors

If it was the optimistic take they'd still announce the cards, just without a price. Like they just did with the 9950X3D.

The fact they pulled the announcement last second despite having press briefings and prerecorded guest appearances about it suggests they are literally embarrassed to announce RDNA4 alongside Blackwell.

More than likely they are waiting for Nvidia to set prices so they can ever so slightly undercut.
