AMD Flagship Radeon RX 7900 XTX Slips to Under $900, Now Starts at $881
AMD's flagship graphics card, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX, based on the RDNA3 architecture, is seeing its street pricing in fall, as the cheapest custom-design card can be had for as low as $881. The XFX Radeon RX 7900 XTX Speedster Merc 310 is listed on Amazon for $979, with a $97 checkbox coupon that sends its price down to $881. The next cheapest card is the Sapphire RX 7900 XTX Pulse, going for $899 after a $100 checkbox coupon on its $999 price. Meanwhile, the RX 7900 XT can be had for as low as $719 with an $80 coupon. Considering that the RX 7900 XTX has shown performance at-par or better than the GeForce RTX 4080, with ray tracing performance comparable to the RTX 3090 Ti, this is tremendous value, given that $881 is what some premium RTX 4070 Ti cards are being sold at.

If the 7900XT lands at 800 its right where it should be; if it moves to 700... purchase of the century.
Similar things count for the 7900XTX at a ~20% higher price level.
These cards are damn strong. Can't you import one from another EU country?
AMD's margins, I don't care about or know anything of, its too nebulous; after all some cards might even have negative margin while others compensate for it.
$800 is the price this card should've launched at, not the price that it will be at when it goes EOL.
The 3060Ti at the same store, they're sitting on 40 (not counting the couple of open box ones) - the day after the 4060Ti released they were sitting on 113 (if memory serves me right). As it stands, it appears that the 3060Ti is outselling the 4060Ti, how sad is that?
It's good to see that these newer gen cards are dropping in price, even if it's only $20 here and there. Hopefully we'll soon see these cards priced appropriately. In my opinion, there is zero reason the 4080 is a $1200 card. I'm sure Nvidia could drop the price to $900 and still make good money on it (even at $900 I'd say the card is still overpriced, should be closer to $750 at the very most, but that's just me).
