AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT MSRP Drops to $749 from $710 on Newegg

AMD has reduced the Radeon RX 7900 XT graphics card’s official MSRP from $899 at launch to $749. TweakTown discovered that its street pricing is much lower, with some RX 7900 XT cards with bespoke designs going for as little as $710 on Newegg. The RX 7900 XT is positioned to compete fiercely at this price point against certain overclocked NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER graphics cards, remaining stock of the recently discontinued GeForce RTX 4070 Ti, and perhaps even some attempts to snatch up sales before the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER launches on January 24.One of the better-appointed custom designs available is the ASRock RX 7900 XT Phantom Gaming and XFX RX 7900 XT Merc 319, which was initially priced similarly to the PowerColor Hellhound. This is the least expensive RX 7900 XT available. The Sapphire RX 7900 XT Pulse OC at $720 and the PowerColor RX 7900 XT Hellhound follow these.

AMD classifies the Radeon RX 7900 XT as a very capable high-end GPU that can play 4K Ultra HD games at maximum settings. It is built with 84 RDNA3 computing units, which are equivalent to 5,376 stream processors, 168 AI accelerators, 84 Ray accelerators, 336 TMUs, and 192 ROPs. It is carved out of the “Navi 31” chiplet GPU. This card’s memory subsystem, which includes 20 GB of 20 Gbps GDDR6 memory across a 320-bit wide memory bus with 800 GB/s of available bandwidth and 80 MB of Infinity Cache, is its finest feature. This memory subsystem should come in helpful when utilizing 4K or creative or AI apps.
