AMD didn't release any "Made by AMD" reference models of their new Radeon RX 9070 XT graphics cards based on RDNA 4 technology. Yet someone in China found what looks like an official AMD reference design RX 9070 XT, probably used as a test model. Third-party manufacturers make custom versions, but AMD hasn't shown the public their original design. This Chinese leak proves the card exists beyond just digital mockups - real people can actually touch it.
The seller offers a brand-new reference AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT with a one-year warranty coverage. The second year requires customers to pay for repairs themselves. They clearly state buyers shouldn't take it apart or damage it. The base price is 5000 Chinese yuan (RMB), preferably for local pickup. Buyers from other cities must pay at least 5800 RMB, which includes shipping through SF Express plus insurance.
The physical card matches earlier leaked pictures showing three fans but comes with an unexpected color change. Instead of gray, as shown earlier, this actual card sports an all-black design. The seller keeps it sealed inside an antistatic bag, suggesting nobody has used it yet. The asking price of around $800 might seem expensive at first glance, but it matches what custom versions currently sell for in stores.
The listing vanished quickly, indicating someone already bought this rare prototype. Because visible serial numbers appear on the card, AMD can likely trace whoever originally put it up for sale. This creates a risky situation for anyone trying to sell these unreleased products. The person who sold this prototype might face serious consequences from AMD for leaking confidential hardware.
