In particular, with regard to video cards equipped with high-end GPUs such as NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070/5070 Ti/5080, in addition to the emphasis on price, the trend of shortages is also attracting attention. In some shops, the price list is blank and the store showcases are empty.
There are concerns about GeForce RTX 5070/5070 Ti/5080-equipped video cards, such as the possibility of future price increases and unclear availability. On the other hand, the AMD Radeon RX 9000 series is in stock to some extent in shops, and is sometimes sold as a weekend special item in Akihabara.
Among the Radeon RX 9000, we particularly recommend the Radeon RX 9070 XT 16GB video card, which can support from full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 dots to high-definition WQHD/4K play of 2560 x 1440 dots and 3840 x 2160 dots.
Choose from the currently popular Full HD and 4K resolution modes and pair perfectly with dual-wielding playing displays. With a video card equipped with the Radeon RX 9070 XT 16GB, you can enjoy playing games with high-definition images that allow you to fully enjoy the world of the game, and competitive FPS titles where the outcome is decided by the arbitrary images with ultra-high refresh rates.
GIGABYTE “M27UP”. It’s a dual-purpose display that can switch between the currently popular 4K and Full HD resolutions.here
The price is around 140,000 yen, which is around 50,000 yen cheaper than a video card equipped with GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, which has similar play performance. Although the performance when using NVIDIA’s multi-frame generation is not noticeable, the fact that the initial investment can be reduced to 50,000 yen is a big advantage.

Achieving greater peace of mind with machine learning (ML)
The new generation aging technology “AMD FSR “Redstone”, which AMD introduced at the end of 2025, is also a key point in favor of the Radeon RX 9000 series. It is the latest version of overwhelmingly improved technology, and is a new generation of mature technology that uses machine learning (ML) that can be executed on RDNA 4 architecture GPUs.
“AMD FSR “Redstone”” consists of four components: upscaling technology “FSR Upscaling” (AMD FSR 4), frame generation technology “FSR Frame Generation”, “FSR Ray Regeneration” to reduce noise in ray tracing, and “FSR Radiance Caching” to speed up path tracing.
Although there are still only a few game titles that support it, there are some, such as “F1 25,” that improve the experience and reduce ghosting in frame generation. FSR is steadily evolving, so I’m looking forward to seeing more games compatible with it.
The charm of plus alpha is hot!
