Sapphire's Pulse gaming series is synonymous with no frills and no frills. The RX 9070 is no exception: apart from a quick installation guide, there was nothing else in the box. On the other hand, it was one of the few cards available at the RRP of 629 euros and will perhaps be again...
The speed of the Sapphire RX 9070 Pulse was on a par with the GeForce RTX 5070, and there's no question that it also has enough power to run current games smoothly. However, at the time of testing, it was significantly more expensive in its performance class than the RTX 5070 (5th place), which is therefore the better choice.
