AMD’s forthcoming Radeon RX 9060 XT is positioned as an accessible option for gamers, with its release anticipated soon. However, current Amazon listings suggest surprising prices for the models. The 8 GB variant comes in at $449, while the 16 GB is priced at $519, which some might find off-putting.

Both GPUs are XFX’s ‘OC’ models, hinting they might carry higher MSRP than AMD’s initial pricing. The prices seem particularly unfavorable compared to Nvidia’s RTX 5060 Ti, which has a much lower MSRP range (with 8 GB priced at $379).

When we consider the RX 9060 XT’s specifications, expected to mirror half the capabilities of its larger sibling, the RX 9070 XT, the high prices could deter potential buyers. The RX 9070 is priced similarly in the realm of $549-$599, making the RX 9060 XT’s eventual pricing even more crucial as they become available June 5.
