You can now grab the PowerColor Fighter AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT 12GB GDDR6 at its lowest price since launch, $349.97. To Sweeten the deal, Newegg bundles selected AMD Radeon GPUs with two games worth $60—and this graphics card is one of them. Just before this price drop, this GPU was available for $399.99.

The Radeon RX 7700 XT sits between the Radeon RX 6800 and the GeForce RTX 3080. This graphic card didn't appeal to potential buyers at the time of launch because of the pricing—and as expected, the pricing began to drop gradually. PowerColor's Fighter AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT 12GB GDDR6 is priced at $349, making the graphics card a tempting pick.

PowerColor Fighter AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT 12GB GDDR6: now $349.97 at Newegg (was $399.99) 

This PowerColor Fighter RX 7700 XT 12GB can be yours for under $350, and it includes two games from Newegg without any codes. The graphics card's price drop makes this GPU more appealing, with a boost clock up to 2,544 MHz and triple fan cooling.

View Deal

The 7700 XT is based on the RDNA 3 architecture and has optimizations for AI applications as it includes newer WMMA instructions for the FP16 throughput. Also, the RX 7700 XT has a much higher shader count, enabling it to perform better than its predecessor.

While many would expect the price to go down further, getting a drop from $350 with two free games isn't a bad deal for someone looking for a capable card. If there's a need to grab one immediately, the Fighter AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT 12GB GDDR6 is something to look at. It has a boost clock speed of up to 2,544 MHz and VRAM clocked at 18 Gbps.

The Fighter AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT 12GB GDDR6 comes with the 2024 Q3 AMD Two Game Bundle with free copies of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 and Unknown 9: Awakening, so you have two new games to enjoy with your graphics card.

    The 7700 XT was always a decent card, it was just looking for the right price.

    $350 puts it only $25-$50 cheaper than the 4060 Ti, and it goes back to the article yesterday: Too expensive to tempt nVidia users, many of whom are no doubt never-AMDers because of previous negative experiences, to go with it.

    Not sure what you mean by previous negative experiences but AMD drivers are far better than CCC was back in the day. I apologize if that's not what you meant.Modern AMD is really good for me. Heck their monitoring component does the job perfectly for me so I don't need MSI or other monitoring app.And yesterday I got a software update for my rx 570 8 GB VRAM .We're all different but I go up in VRAM when I get a GPU upgrade.
    And Nvidia has impressive tech but they're just too greedy and I'm sick of them and other people falling over themselves about ray tracing/ fake frame nonsense.Maybe nvidia will have some sensible prices soon but I'm not holding my breath.

    Funny because my experience is the opposite. AMD divers feels much more polished with a lot of options.
    With Nvidia, I just have the basic driver with the interface of windows 98, just because i refuse to signup on their "geforce experience" data stealing gimmick. All my PCs for the last 20 years had ATI/AMD cards, but i was tempted by a used 2080ti just before covid and clung to it during the pandemic (lucky move i admit).

    But if i were to change my GPU, it would be an AMD for sure.

    That's all the 7600XT was ever worth. Labelling it 7700XT doesn't make it worth more. 7800XT is the real 7700XT.

    Computers with nvidia are more stable.
    Works better with intel cpus and igpus.
    With dual graphics setup Intel igpu and gpu have thr best combo for idle watts. You can run 3 monitors with wallpaper engine only using 20% of igpu capabilities. 5 or 6w of power draw.
    And keep the high refresh rate with out burn 100w idle.

    Nvidia gpus are far better than AMD ones. It's why they have almost 100% dominance over gpu market.

    * WINDOWS 98 INTERFACE IF WORKS DON'T TOUCH IT!

    I mean - that's true for all cards, right?

    I don't know about drivers on the desktop space, but on laptops where you have 2 amd gpus, oh boy, it's disastrous.

    Having just moved to a 7900XT after 15 years of Team Green, I'm happy to say in my experience that's tosh.

    You can't really compare iGPU and discrete on power draw, that's an apples and oranges comparison. Thanks to the superb monitor app that's included in drivers, I can see that at 1440p @ 85hz + 1440p @ 75hz power draw is fine - I've had 1440p @ 144hz + 1440p @ 75hz with no difference in power draw, but on the desktop? I really don't see the point or any difference. It does takes a jump with a third monitor no matter what I do to refresh rates - I'll happily admit that, but you know what - it's maybe £5 more expensive a year? I'll take that as an offset on the price vs nvidia thanks.

    In gaming, it's powerful, smooth, quiet and thus far rock steady. I was 100% nvidia after some awful experiences with CCC in about 2008 (I had a Sapphire something or other and it just never ran reliably at all), but I'm so happy I switched - and my motivation was entirely a protest at price gouging. I've voted with my wallet and it's opened up a new option for every GPU purchase going forward.

    For the most part, but some are awful on a technical level, e.g. Navi 24.
