Gamers Nexus has confirmed that AMD's Radeon RX 9060 XT graphics card review embargo will be lifted tomorrow (June 4)—this important date was mentioned in many insider reports, but simple deduction—based on an officially announced June 5 launch day—indicated the imminent publication of comprehensive hardware evaluations. Stephen Burke disclosed this tidbit during a lengthy "forbidden" video review of NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5060 8 GB model. He sourced a Gigabyte Eagle OC sample in Taiwan (out of pocket); coinciding with his attending last month's Computex 2025 trade show. Refer to this pre-event article —reportedly, there was (and still is) plenty of controversy surrounding Team Green's current relationship with PC hardware media outlets.

On occasion (but rarely), the end of review embargoes can occur on product launch days. Burke outlined a traditional schedule for Team Red's next wave of RDNA 4 graphics cards. Additionally, he hinted about the outlook for competing technologies (both starting at $299)—on the subject of the GeForce RTX 5060's worthiness he commented: "power and efficiency data will be included in the (upcoming) AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT review. That goes up tomorrow (June 4). No, you should not buy this right now. Wait for the RX 9060 XT review. There's no shortage of RTX 5060 supply." As expected, Radeon RX 9060 XT pre-launch benchmark data has emerged online. Late last week, an alleged XFX Swift 16 GB specimen generated a mixed bag of results. We anticipate that TechPowerUp's W1zzard will deliver suitably in-depth studies of AIB candidates.
