Enlarge / The RX 6700XT GPU reaches retailers soon. When will it reach average customers, however? Honestly, who’s to say at this point?
AMD’s RDNA 2 push continues on March 18 with a newly announced RX 6700XT graphics card, starting at $479 and featuring just about the exact downscaled options you might expect from a card costing $100 less than last year’s RX 6800.

AMD chose YouTube for the announcement—and, perhaps foolishly, left the chat function on. This allowed fans to spam the live-stream chat with “sold out” and “out of stock” cries for a full 15 minutes. Weirdly, the video’s host acknowledged that “demand for GPUs is at an all-time high,” only to offer about as worthless a pledge as you’ll get about availability: that the GPU will be sold both at AMD.com and at “e-tailers and retailers across the globe on day one.”
