On the AMD side, the RX 6950 XT can be had for $619 (opens in new tab), the 6900 XT is basically discontinued (starting at $949), and RX 6800 XT starts at $509 (opens in new tab), and the RX 6800 begins at $479 (opens in new tab). The RTX 3060, RTX 3050, or maybe RTX 3060 Ti are about as high as you'd want to look, with models from Asus, Gigabyte, MSI, PNY, and Zotac that aren't too egregiously priced.

Previous generation RTX 30-series and RX 6000-series cards are generally not worth considering now, at least on the Nvidia side, unless you're after a sub-$400 card. It seems supply has finally caught up to demand, though prices for the latest generation GPUs are all still very high compared to their previous generation counterparts' MSRPs. The ASRock 7900 XT (opens in new tab), Sapphire RX 7900 XT Pulse (opens in new tab), and XFX 7900 XT (opens in new tab) are at Newegg for $799–$809, making that GPU far more enticing, while the cheapest XTX cards are the ASRock RX 7900 XTX (opens in new tab) and PowerColor RX 7900 XTX (opens in new tab) for $959–$989. The same goes for RTX 4070 Ti (opens in new tab) that launched in January and has been mostly available with a starting price of $800 (opens in new tab), and the latest RTX 4070 lands with many $599 models in stock (opens in new tab).ĪMD's Radeon RX 7900 XTX and 7900 XT (opens in new tab) can also be found for their base MSRPs, sometimes below that mark. The GeForce RTX 4080 (opens in new tab) can be found starting at MSRP as well, with multiple RTX 4080 cards listed at Newegg (opens in new tab). The GeForce RTX 4090 (opens in new tab) was routinely sold out for a few months, but cards are now available at Newegg and Amazon at or close to MSRP. Unfortunately, the MSRPs on the latest generation parts are sometimes quite a bit higher than their previous gen equivalents - like the $7 Ti compared to the $5 Ti. In fact, with PC and PC component sales slumping, there are even some deals to be had, with some cards now selling below MSRP. Thankfully, the time of GPU shortages and overpriced (relative to MSRP) cards is now past.

A few other parts have swapped places, based on current pricing and availability. The big news is the entrance of the RTX 4070 onto the scene, which takes the place of the previous generation RTX 3080 - it's basically the same performance with new features, for less money and with far better power efficiency.
