It's one leaked card. Buying and testing/reviewing this could make you thousands in revenue because it's basically classified info millions of people would like to know.
To be fair, the rumored $750 MSRP is ridiculous too.
Last time I heard, no drivers were available yet. So... You are getting a brick at this point.
That is an expensive door stopper that will evolve into a gpu
Like a Pokemon fossil?
I think you can test it under Linux. The MESA 25.0 has a support for RDNA 4 and they released a rc3 version recently (https://www.phoronix.com/news/Mesa-25.0-rc3-Released), so yes, you can potentially test it on your YouTube channel, do a hardware review of the internals and then sell it back and make a bank in the process.
You might be able to use the release candidate linux kernel to benchmark it? Would be kinda irrelevant for windows people that will be using full release software
Still analyzable, and potentially stresstestable
