AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT Drops to $849 on Amazon: Lowest Price Since Launch

AMD’s Radeon RX 7900 XT has dropped to its lowest price since its launch. The XFX Speedster Merc 310 Radeon RX 7900 XTX is currently going for $849 on Amazon, down from its official MSRP of $899. The retailer states that this is its lowest price in the last 30 days, a nifty deal if you’re looking for a next-gen graphics card.

The Merc310 Radeon RX 7900 XT features 5,376 stream processors (cores/shaders) running at a base and a boost clock of 1,775 and 2,535MHz, respectively. The 20GB memory buffer is paired with a 320-bit bus for an external bandwidth of 800GB/s and an effective bandwidth of 2,900GB/s (considering the Infinity Cache).

Its direct rival, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti, is going for $829. While it may fall short of the RX 7900 XT in purely rasterized workloads, it’s substantially faster in ray-traced games, especially when backed by DLSS 3.0. The RTX 4070 Ti comes with 12GB of GDDR6X memory running at 21Gbps and a 192-bit bus for an external bandwidth of 504GB/s. Remember that it also comes with an on-die cache of 48MB for a much higher effective on-die cache.
