The mid-range graphics card segment is seeing some interesting moves by board partners of AMD and NVIDIA in recent times, making it possible to get a 1440p-class contemporary graphics card under $400. AMD markets the Radeon RX 7700 XT as a 1440p-class GPU, and our review agrees with this notion. VideoCardz spotted the card going for as cheap as $349, a $100 (22%) drop in price from its $449 launch price. The card in question is a PowerColor RX 7700 XT Fighter, the company's affordable custom-design based on the GPU, which is listed on Newegg for $349. The card comes with a triple-slot cooling solution with a triple-fan setup. It sticks to AMD reference clock speeds for the RX 7700 XT. Here's the kicker, even at this price, you are eligible for a game bundle worth $60 with this card, the current offer includes copies of both "Warhammer 40000: Space Marine II," and "Unknown 9 Awakening."

Regulatory filings by PC OEM major Acer, with the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC), drop some of the first references to three upcoming performance-segment graphics card SKUs by AMD. These include the Radeon RX 7900, the Radeon RX 7800, and the Radeon RX 7700. Acer is an AMD Radeon add-in board partner under its Acer Predator brand, which makes graphics cards not just for Predator and Nitro gaming PCs, but also graphics cards for the retail channel.

At this point, there are no specs known for the three, not even their memory sizes. It would be interesting to see how AMD slots the three into its product stack, particularly the RX 7900. The company currently has three RX 7900 series SKUs—the flagship RX 7900 XTX, and the second-best RX 7900 XT, but then the SKU next to this is the RX 7900 GRE, which saw a worldwide launch. Then there are the RX 7800 and RX 7700, which are pretty straightforward to predict. The RX 7800 will slot in between the RX 7700 XT and RX 7800 XT, and will probably feature a 256-bit wide memory interface with 16 GB of memory, much like the RX 7800 XT; whereas the RX 7700 will be positioned below the RX 7700 XT. It wouldn't surprise us if AMD further cuts down the memory interface to 160-bit (10 GB).

AMD just announced the "This is why we Game" Q2-2024 game bundle. With a qualifying AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT or RX 7700 XT graphics card from a participating retailer, you can choose any two free games from the following: Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, Starfield, Lies of P, and Company of Heroes 3. The bundle campaign period is from today (June 11), till July 20, 2024. You'll need to purchase a qualifying graphics card within this campaign period to be eligible. Once you've selected your two free games, you can redeem them (add them to your DRM platform account) before August 17, 2024. The Bundle is open in all countries except a handful mentioned in the terms & conditions page. Customers in Japan can only redeem one among the four games.

A curiously described graphics card was detected by Olrak29 as it was making it through international shipping. The shipment description for the card reads "GRAPHIC CARD NAVI48 G28201 DT XTX REVB-PRE-CORRELATION AO PLATSI TT(SAMSUNG)-Q2 2024-3A-102-G28201." This can be decoded as a graphics card with the board number "G28201," for the desktop platform. It features a maxed out version of the "Navi 48" silicon, and is based on the B revision of the PCB. It features Samsung-made memory chips, and is dated Q2-2024.

AMD is planning to retreat from the enthusiast segment of gaming graphics cards with the RDNA 4 generation. The company originally entered this segment with the RX 6800 series and RX 6900 series RDNA 2 generation, where it saw unexpected success with the crypto-mining market boom, besides being competitive with the RTX 3080 and RTX 3090. This bust by the time RDNA 3 and the RX 7900 series arrived, and the chip wasn't competitive with NVIDIA's top-end. Around this time, the AI acceleration boom squeezed foundry allocation of all major chipmakers, including AMD, making large chips based on the latest process nodes even less viable for a market such as enthusiast graphics—the company would rather make CDNA AI accelerators with its allocation. Given all this, the company's fastest GPUs from the RDNA 4 generation could be the ones that succeed the current RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT, so AMD could capture a slice of the performance segment.

We had a chance to briefly stop at Sapphire and it is one of the rare AMD GPU AIB partners that has something new to showcase at the Computex 2024. While it was announced earlier last month, we had a chance to check out the new Sapphire Radeon RX 7700 XT Pure Frostpunk 2 Edition graphics card, and it looks even better in person.

It could have something to do with the fact that we liked the original Frostpunk game and we can't wait to check out Frostpunk 2 when it launches on July 25th, but the card with white shroud and white fans with Frostpunk elements on its backplate certainly has its appeal. You also get a game code for the Deluxe Edition of the game in the box as well as some other goodies including custom keycaps and pin badges.In case you somehow missed it, the Radeon RX 7700 XT is based on the 5 nm Navi 32 GPU, packing 54 compute units for a total of 3,456 stream processors. AMD is targeting 1440p gaming with this card and it comes with 48 MB of Infinity Cache and 12 GB of 18 Gbps GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit memory interface. It needs two 8-pin PCIe power connectors, and includes two DisplayPort 2.1 and two HDMI 2.1 outputs.

Sapphire today unveiled the Radeon RX 7700 XT Pure Frostpunk 2 Edition graphics card. The card is a branding collaboration with 11 bit Studios, which releases Frostpunk 2 this July. The city-building survival strategy game is one of this Summer's most anticipated game releases. Sapphire celebrates it with a variant of the RX 7700 XT Pure graphics card that has a game code for the Deluxe Edition of Frostpunk 2, a themed backplate, and some goodies in the box, including custom keycaps, and enamel pin badges. While the backplate is heavily themed on the game, the all-white cooler shroud, the white impellers for the three fans, and the rest of the card, sticks with the white color scheme that's characteristic of Sapphire's Pure brand. The card comes in a collector's edition box themed after the game.

Based on the 5 nm "Navi 32" silicon, the Radeon RX 7700 XT features 3,456 stream processors across 54 compute units. The GPU is based on the RDNA 3 graphics architecture, and AMD recommends it for 1440p gaming with maxed out settings. The card features 12 GB of 18 Gbps GDDR6 memory across a 192-bit wide memory interface, and features 48 MB of Infinity Cache memory. The card draws power from a pair of 8-pin PCIe power connectors. Display outputs include two each of DisplayPort 2.1 (featuring UHBR 13.5), and two HDMI 2.1 connectors. The card will release to market in July, probably alongside the game's July 25 release date, pricing isn't known yet (we asked Sapphire).

Vastarmor is a relatively young graphics card manufacturer and AMD board partner (since the RDNA 2 days)—their Alloy product range was updated with new Radeon RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT triple-fan "PRO" models last September. VideoCardz has discovered a new dual-fan "non-PRO" white variant—the Vastarmor RX 7700 XT Alloy White 12 GB. TPU's GPU database entry lists a release date of August 25—according to the VideoCardz report, Vastarmor has not settled on final pricing or an official launch date. The standard black (with small red accents) RX 7700 XT Alloy model did reach Chinese retailers last year—the pale variant is predicted to cost about the same, or demand a slight premium over the black version.

Specifications remain consistent across both—according to VideoCardz: "Vastarmor has verified that the card maintains a base clock of 1784 MHz, a game clock of 2276 MHz, and a boost clock that reaches up to 2600 MHz (an overclock of 2.2% for boost). Despite its compact size, measuring at 26.3 x 13.2 cm, the card demands three slots due to its thickness of 5.6 cm. Power-wise, it relies on standard 8-pin power connectors, installed in pairs." The factory-set overclocks are identical to the numbers designated to Vastarmor's RX 7700 XT Alloy PRO model, although their triple-fan design is slightly slimmer. The longer design accommodates a 90 mm fan, positioned between two 100 mm units.

AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT continues to be on a downward pricing slope, with prices over the last weekend touching as low as $399 on Newegg. The Sapphire RX 7700 XT Pulse is listed with the retailer for $409, with a coupon discount shaving off a further $10. At $399, the RX 7700 XT poses a severe competitive threat to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB, with the cheapest card on Newegg going for $419; and the cheapest RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB at $389. The RX 7700 XT is a 1440p-class graphics card, and is from a segment above both the RTX 4060 Ti cards, with a 14% higher performance at 1080p than the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB, and 16% higher performance at 1440p. It's offers roughly the same performance in games with ray tracing, trailing the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB by just 1% in our testing. NVIDIA has a rather large price-performance gap between the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB and the RTX 4070 (cheapest going for $525).

AMD today announced wider availability of the Radeon RX 7900 GRE (Golden Rabbit Edition) graphics card. The card is now available in certain western markets including in Europe and North America; although AMD wouldn't call this a global launch. The card was originally designed as a limited edition product meant for the Chinese market, and has been available there since July 2023. The decision to launch the card in other markets may have been driven by NVIDIA's January launch of the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER and RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, which have caused cascading price cuts among the older RTX 4070, RTX 4070 Ti; and AMD's RX 7800 XT, creating a rather big gap between this card and the RX 7900 XT, which is probably why AMD decided to launch the RX 7900 GRE at $550.

AMD carved the RX 7900 GRE from the "Navi 31" silicon powering the RX 7900 series, by disabling two MCDs (instead of disabling just one on the RX 7900 XT); which results in a 256-bit memory bus, which drives 16 GB of 18 Gbps GDDR6 memory, for 576 GB/s of memory bandwidth. The GCD sees 80 out of 96 compute units (CU) being enabled, for 5,120 stream processors, 320 TMUs, 160 AI accelerators, and 80 Ray accelerators. The card is configured with 160 out of 192 ROPs present on the silicon. The total board power (TBP) is set to 260 W, which is about the same as the RX 7800 XT; but there are 33% more shaders to go around. Several AMD board partners are expected to announce their custom RX 7900 GRE cards today, with market availability slated for tomorrow, February 27, 2024. Although AMD is known to have a reference design card, it is expected to be confined to the OEM/SI channel. In addition, AMD also cut the official MSRP of the RX 7700 XT to $419.

Our "launch" day reviews of the Radeon RX 7900 GRE include: Sapphire RX 7900 GRE NITRO+ | ASRock RX 7900 GRE Steel Legend | Sapphire RX 7900 GRE Pure | Sapphire RX 7900 GRE Pulse

Retailer specific discounts are creating quite the pileup of graphics card options between the $300 to $500 mark. With enough time spent finding the right deal, you could potentially buy a much faster graphics card that you'd planned for, at a given price. Hot on the heels on a recent Best Buy deal that brought the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB down to $344, or within just $15 of the Radeon RX 7600 XT, we're hearing about a couple of Newegg deals that see the Radeon RX 7700 XT down to just $353, or $9 more than the RTX 4060 Ti, and $24 more than an RX 7600 XT.

At $353, the RX 7700 XT changes the game, as it is a firmly 1440p-class GPU, compared to the 1080p-class RTX 4060 Ti and RX 7600 XT. In our testing, the Radeon RX 7700 XT is an incredible 17% faster than the RTX 4060 Ti at 1080p for just $9 more; and 19% faster than it at 1440p. Compared to the RX 7600 XT, the RX 7700 XT is a staggering 39% faster at 1080p, and 44% faster at 1440p. Even with ray tracing enabled, the RX 7700 XT dominates the RTX 4060 Ti. At 1080p with ray tracing enabled, the RTX 4060 Ti averages just 2% faster than the RX 7700 XT, but at 1440p, the RX 7700 XT in fact ends up 14% faster than the RTX 4060 Ti thanks to its much heavier SIMD engine, and 50% higher memory bandwidth. The Newegg deal doesn't even cover a cheap custom design, but the mighty PowerColor RX 7700 XT Hellhound and Fighter.

With the introduction of the new GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER at $599, prices of the regular GeForce RTX 4070 are on a downward trend, below even its $549 NVIDIA MSRP, and can be frequently found for as low as $534. This is applying pressure on the AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT, which had originally debuted at $499, with custom design cards originally retailing for upward of $530. The availability of RTX 4070 around that price range has pushed some of these custom RX 7800 XT to below the $500, or down to the AMD MSRP of $499. One such example is the Gigabyte RX 7800 XT Gaming OC, which can be had bang on the AMD MSRP.

This has also had a cascading effect on the pricing of the Radeon RX 7700 XT, with custom design cards frequently trending below the company's $450 MSRP for this SKU. Gigabyte's RX 7700 XT Gaming OC is listed on Newegg for $439, while several other custom designs, such as the Sapphire Pulse, ASRock Challenger, and PowerColor Fighter are listed on the $449 MSRP—they were originally selling for around $470. Both the RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT are recommended by AMD for 1440p maxed out AAA gaming, and compete directly with the RTX 4070 series. The RX 7800 XT beats the RTX 4070, while the RX 7700 XT isn't too far behind it, while being significantly ahead of the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB in performance.

Acer today announced the Predator BiFrost AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT OC and a trio of Nitro graphic cards powered by the latest AMD Radeon RX 7000 series GPUs, including the new AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT GPUs. The new graphics cards empower users to experience immersive gaming experiences when playing the latest AAA titles with up to 16 GB memory and next-gen technologies. Boasting 60 unified AMD RDNA 3 compute units and paired with Predator FrostBlade 3.0 fans, the Predator BiFrost AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT graphics card offers seamless performance in 1440p and 4K gameplay. The Acer Nitro AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT OC graphics card comes loaded with 16 GB of GDDR6 memory and up to 624 Gbps memory bandwidth, while the Acer Nitro AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT OC graphics card offers 12 GB of GDDR6 memory and up to 432 Gbps memory bandwidth.

To achieve smooth and fast performance, the Acer Nitro AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT OC graphics card features 16 GB of GDDR6 memory while doubling down on cooling with Nitro FrostBlade ringed fans, a dual-ball bearing system, three heat dissipation vents, and offering a reinforced copper base to efficiently absorb heat and help increase the device's lifespan. The meticulously engineered cooling system delivers the overclocking power gamers need to push the graphics card to its limits.

Even as NVIDIA inches close to the launch of its RTX 40-series SUPER graphics cards in January, AMD could be preparing a product stack update of its own. While NVIDIA's refresh focuses on the higher end of its lineup, AMD looks to spread out more into the mainstream-performance segments. A regulatory filing with the Eurasian Economic Commission mentions the terms "RX 7600 XT," "RX 7700," and "RX 7800," which fill gaps between the RX 7600, RX 7700 XT, and RX 7800 XT.

There exists a rather big gap between the $230 Radeon RX 7600 and the $450 RX 7700 XT, which AMD is looking to fill with the RX 7600 XT and RX 7700 (non-XT). How AMD goes about carving out these two will be interesting to see. The RX 7600 already maxes out the 6 nm "Navi 33" silicon that it's based on, which means to create the RX 7600 XT, AMD might have to tap into the larger (and much more expensive) "Navi 32" MCM. There is a vast gap between the 32 CU (compute units) available to the RX 7600, and the 54 CU that the RX 7700 XT has (while the silicon itself has 60). Besides CU count, AMD has other levers, such as the MCD (memory cache die) count, which could be down to just 2 for the RX 7600 XT, or 3 for the RX 7700. The Radeon RX 7800 is a different beast. AMD faced quite some flack for positioning the RX 7700 XT within $50 of the RX 7800 XT, and now the former can be had for a street price of roughly $430. To be able to squeeze the RX 7800 between the two, AMD might need to widen the gap by pushing the RX 7700 XT down.

ASUS updated its AMD Radeon graphics card lineup with the introduction of the Radeon RX 7800 XT Dual OC and RX 7700 XT Dual OC. This is an interesting development, given that the company only had TUF Gaming series custom-designs of the two GPUs at their early September 2023 launch. The company continues to lack any ROG Strix series products based on the RX 7800 XT, RX 7700 XT, and the RX 7900 series. The two new Dual OC series cards are positioned below the TUF Gaming products, and predictably, share a common board design for the RX 7800 XT Dual OC and the RX 7700 XT Dual OC.

The new Dual OC common board for the RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT is just about 2 slots thick (or 2.2 slots to be specific). It is 27.9 cm long, and 13.39 cm tall, or about an inch taller than what constitutes "full height." Its cooler features an aluminium fin-stack heatsink that's ventilated by two 100 mm Axial Tech fans backed by dual ball bearings, webbed impellers, and idle fan-stop. The card draws power from two 8-pin PCIe power connectors. With its OC Mode enabled (via software), the RX 7800 XT Dual OC offers a Game clock of 2254 MHz and 2565 MHz Boost clock (vs. 2124/2430 MHz reference). The RX 7700 XT Dual OC, on the other hand, offers 2239 MHz Game clock and 2599 MHz Boost clock with its OC Mode enabled (vs. 2171/2544 MHz reference). The company didn't reveal pricing.

An interesting development in the performance segment of graphics cards is price adjustments among SKUs such as the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti. The RX 7700 XT was spotted at a new low price of $399 by VideoCardz. At this price, the card ends up at least $40 below the lowest price we could find on Newegg for the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB, and about the same price as its 8 GB variant. This is an interesting development, as the RX 7700 XT is a significantly faster GPU than the RTX 4060 Ti in our testing, posting 14% higher performance on average than the RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB, and 13% higher than the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB at 1080p, with the NVIDIA cards only beating it by 1-2% in ray tracing workloads, in our testing. The specific custom RX 7700 XT selling for $399 is an ASRock RX 7700 XT Challenger OC, which is listed on Newegg for $449, but with a coupon code that shaves $50 off.

AMD has updated its Radeon Adrenalin driver with the latest edition, 23.9.2. The newest version brings unified driver support for AMD Radeon RX 7700 and RX 7800, which the previous driver lacked, and there was a separate download for these two SKUs. Besides merging into a single unified driver, the new update brings Lies of P, Party Animals, and The Crew Motorfest game support for AMD Radeon graphics. In this driver release, the AMD Radeon Anti-Lag+ feature is introduced for Starfield, Witcher 3, ELDEN RING, Immortals of Aveum, and an Anti-Lag+ screen overlay for system latency. AMD fixed some issues like application crashing while playing Baldur Gate 3 with Vulkan API on RX 7900 XTX, limited GPU clock tuning on RX 7700 XT and RX 7800 XT, application crash while playing SMITE on RX 7900 XTX, and application crash or driver timeout while playing F1 2023 on RX 7800 XT. There is no Cyberpunk 2077 update yet in this driver release.

NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 4070 12 GB graphics card finds itself embattled against the recently launched AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT, and board partners from NVIDIA's ecosystem plan to do something about it, reports Moore's Law is Dead. A GIGABYTE custom-design RTX 4070 Gaming OC graphics card saw a $549 listing on the web, deviating from the $599 MSRP for the SKU, which hints at what the new pricing for the RTX 4070 could generally look like. At $549, the RTX 4070 would still sell for a $50 premium over the RX 7800 XT, probably banking on better energy efficiency and features such as DLSS 3. NVIDIA partners could take turns to price their baseline custom-design RTX 4070 product below the MSRP on popular online retail platforms, and we don't predict an official price-cut that applies across all brands, forcing them all to lower their prices to $549. We could also see NVIDIA partners review pricing for the RTX 4060 Ti, which faces stiff competition from the RX 7700 XT.

Vastarmor has updated their Alloy graphics card cooling solution with the introduction of customized Radeon RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT models—the Chinese manufacturer is keeping things local, so their latest products are unlikely to reach retailers outside of the PRC. This small sticking point has not deterred TPU's GPU database curator—entries have been created for both cards. 4499 RMB (~$612) bags you Vastarmor's Radeon RX 7800 XT Alloy, while their Radeon RX 7700 XT Alloy starts at 3999 RMB (~$545). The two Navi 32 chiplet-based cards appear to share the exact same shroud design and triple-fan setup.

Vastarmor's robust cooling system relies on a 100 + 90 + 100 mm fan array with a somewhat unique visual twist—RGB enthusiasts will be stoked to know that lighting has been integrated into each individual fan. VideoCardz digs the resultant effects: "as the fans spin, gamers will be treated to the mesmerizing sight of what can be described as RGB rings, hopefully nothing too hypnotic." The new Alloy cards arrive with factory set overclocks—providing a rough 5 to 6% climb over AMD's reference figures. Vastarmor has their Radeon RX 7800 XT model configured with 1624/2254/2565 MHz (base/game/boost). The Radeon RX 7700 XT Alloy's spec sheet states 1784/2276/2600 MHz.

AMD and Bethesda's Starfield Game Bundle promotion kicked off back in mid-July, with a wide range of current and previous generation hardware qualifying for the campaign. It was very apparent, at the time, that Team Red had bolstered the list of GPUs with plenty of mid-range RX 6000-series (RDNA 2) models—in absence of heavily rumored successors. AMD's Radeon RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT graphics cards were finally introduced at Gamescom 2023, and reached retail outlets yesterday. Post-unveiling it was revealed that all Radeon RX 7000-series desktop cards would be eligible for the Starfield campaign, but the new Navi 32-based models were not mentioned in specifics.

AMD has—very recently—quietly updated its Reward and Gaming campaign pages with revised information—Radeon RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT GPUs are now present on the list of qualifying products, alongside the addition of an oddball semi-sibling—Radeon RX 7900 Golden Rabbit Edition (GRE). These graphics cards sit in an upper tier that grants customers a digital download copy of Starfield Premium Edition.
