Save up to $80 on one of AMD's best RDNA 3 GPUs, thanks to these Prime Day graphics card deals

October Prime Day (or as Mr Bezos prefers to call it, Prime Big Deal Days) is upon us and the discounts have started already. Well, apart from graphics cards, as their prices seem to have barely changed for most models.

The main exceptions to this are AMD's RDNA 3 GPUs and specific versions are sporting a very welcome price drop. The Radeon RX 7900 XTX, RX 7900 XT, and 7800 XT have all had $60 to $80 snipped off, making them all a very tasty purchase. I don't think they'll come down any more over the course of this week but you never know!

Just like with the RTX 4080, it used to be hard to find AMD's RX 7900 XTX heavily discounted down below its MSRP price. But good deals can now be found and we'll happily take a substantial discount on this high-end GPU. The Radeon RX 7900 XTX is stupidly fast and there are plenty of good cooling designs for this card, including this Powercolor one.

The Radeon RX 7900 XTX is AMD's flagship graphics card and it's a seriously powerful thing—in games where ray tracing isn't heavily used, it's as good as anything that Nvidia has to offer and only the painfully expensive RTX 4090 is always faster.

Underneath the huge cooler, you've got a chiplet-based GPU with the main slab of silicon housing all of the shaders. It's surrounded by six tiny chips, comprising slices of L3 cache and a memory interface.

All of the relevant numbers are more than big enough: 6,144 shaders, 2,525 MHz boost clock, and 24 GB of fast GDDR6 VRAM. Those first two aspects combine to offer up to 61 TFLOPS of processing power so it's more than just a gaming GPU with that kind of number-crunching ability.

It's not a perfect GPU, though. As mentioned above, AMD's RDNA 3 design trails Nvidia's best chips when it comes to ray tracing, and by some margin. Its upscaling and frame generation
