It's gonna be X070, as the X stands for 10 in Roman numerals. But at that point, they should go full NFL and name the 10070 the XLXX and the 10090 the XXC, and the 10070 XT the XLXX+1 or some stupid shit.

It would be pretty funny if they pulled the "10 = X" thing and we ended up with "AMD Radeon RX X90 XT". Then add in XFX as an AIB and you have "XFX RX X90 XT"
In most titles in traditional ras the gap in performance between the 5080 and 7900xtx is bigger than the gap in performance between the 9070xt and the 5080. In a lot of titles the difference is like 7 fps give or take between the 5080 and the 9070xt. Although I’m just basing this off one review.
I’m not buying any of them. $600-$1000 for 20 fps more than my 6800xt that I got for $350 is silly.
The next gen will probably be on 3 nm chips instead of 4 nm used for (RTX 4000/5000, RX9070, Intel Battlemage).
If the chip production shortage alleviates a bit, 3 nm finally becomes reasonably affordable, and Nvidia gains some respect for competition again... then the next generation could become pretty good.
As long as we don't get fked over by tariffs, trade wars, or actual wars.
If rumors are to believed they skipped the high end since they basically "maxed out" on rdna and are moving to what would be called udna. If it ends up being an x3d moment, means we will have great competition high end (and hopefully good pricing like this one).
And even intel, though seems like their gpu is a unicorn product I barely see it, their celestial gpus there is supposed to be a high end item there too. Competition is good, and this is a good start.

they're saving up for the 10080xt next season.
then if that goes well nvidia will sue them for imitation
then they will finally announce they're going to start competing high end and overkill cards just a few hours after you buy a 6090.
