AMD will ship more Radeon RX 9070 graphics cards as factories make extra chips. The first batch of these TSMC-made Navi 48 cards sold out fast. Reports said about 200,000 RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT cards went quickly during early sales. Stores ran out, but weekly shipments from AMD partners should help by mid-April.
AMD lets partner companies set any price they want for these cards. They suggest retail prices, but partners decide what to charge for custom designs. This means some RX 9070 XT models cost $200 more than AMD suggested. These sales numbers came from a Beijing tech event, showing big demand despite few cards in stores.
The empty shelves show production limits, not a lack of buyer interest. When TSMC makes more chips, more shipments should better match demand. This shows why good supply chains matter for new tech products. These graphics cards became very popular despite their limited numbers.
AMD fixed a mix-up about these sales figures later. They said BenchLife wrongly claimed 200,000 units had been sold. AMD never shared any sales numbers at the event. BenchLife took down their wrong report after this correction.
