It looks like AMD has lowered the official MSRP of their Radeon RX 7900 XT graphics card from the original $899 launch price down to $749. There are already certain custom-designed Radeon RX 7900 XT cards selling for as low as $710 on Newegg. With this low of a price it looks like AMD is setting the RX 7900 XT to compete with overclocked NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER graphics cards, GeForce RTX 4070 Ti cards, and even get some good sales numbers before the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER goes on sale on January 24th.
The Radeon RX 7900 XT is based off the “Navi 31” GPU with 84 RDNA3 compute units, giving you 5376 stream processors, 168 AI accelerators, 84 Ray accelerators, 336 TMUs, and 192 ROPs. You are also going to get 80 MB of Infinity Cache and 20GB of GDDR6 memory that runs at 20 Gbps across a 320-bit wide memory interface.
The cheapest available ($710) Radeon RX 7900 XT’s are the ASRock RX 7900 XT Phantom Gaming and XFX RX 7900 XT Merc 31 and then after that are the PowerColor RX 7900 XT Hellhound and Sapphire RX 7900 XT Pulse OC, both of which are only $720.
