Verdict
AMD Instinct MI210
7.3 / 10 Expert Rating
A practical, PCIe-slot-friendly way to get CDNA 2 compute into a standard server, useful for smaller HPC and AI deployments, but clearly the entry point of its generation next to the dual-die MI250X and now well behind the MI300 series.
AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE
7.2 / 10 Expert Rating
A sensible value play in RDNA 4's lineup - not a flagship, but a competent 1440p card at a friendlier price than the RX 9070 XT.
