One might question why an RX 9070 card would need so much memory, but increased capacity can serve purposes beyond gaming, such as Large Language Model (LLM) support for AI workloads. Additionally, it’s worth noting that RX 9070 cards will use 20 Gbps memory, much slower than the RTX 50 series, which features 28-30 Gbps GDDR7 variants. So, while capacity may increase, bandwidth likely won’t.

32GB of VRAM for a consumer price would certainly help. I'm a bit concerned with the memory bandwidth, seems way less than what modern Nvidia cards do... But if it's priced competitively, this might be a good choice to do a lot of AI tasks at home, especially LLM inference.
