AMD might have some good news for gamers who are waiting for next-gen mid-range GPUs to drop. A rumor posted on a Chinese forum alleges that AMD is looking to price the RX 9070 and 9070 XT quite competitively.
Getting gamers to at least try a RX GPU for the first time. Both Radeon and nVidia have abandoned the $300 to $400 crowd. The 4060 is a $200 card, If AMD doesn’t stop catering to their stock price they will turn Radeon into a 3rd tier GPU brand, behind Intel Arc in second place sales.
I sincerely don’t know how Ryzen can sit on top as king, as overpriced as Ryzen is but definitely Ryzen is the best, but Radeon doesn’t matter, don’t care, not worth anything. The profits from Ryzen should be spent on Radeon R&D engineering.
ATI, sorry meant AMD, have tried the low price approach. They achieved nothing in terms of market share, the green fans didn’t find lower price and better performance enough to be swayed, and only ended up hurting their bottom line. There is nothing in it for AMD.

What has AMD to gain by dumping prices to sooth the nvidia-first crowd?

I agree. The same logic applies to: “if AMD really wants to screw over Nvidia, they should give people $100 and a free video card”.
