Where to buy the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX

Refresh

…and we’re live! The AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT is now officially on sale. For our money, it’s the best GPU out of the current slate of next-gen graphics cards; the RTX 4090 is obviously incredible but wildly expensive, the RX 7900 XT is great but sits in an odd position at just $100 cheaper than its XTX big brother, and the RTX 4080 is… well, that one just kinda sucks at its current $1,199 MSRP. Let’s hope Nvidia brings the price down soon to counter AMD’s new GPUs.

We’re T-minus five minutes out from the launch, folks. Remember that some retailers may experience website trouble due to high traffic, so be patient when spamming that F5 key.

Although most of the retailers on our list above don’t have visible listings for the RX 7900 XTX yet, we can expect most (if not all) of them to stock it. If it transpires that a retailer isn’t selling the card at launch for some reason, we’ll remove them from the list until they do have stock available.

Don’t panic, the card isn’t on sale yet. You can view listings for the RX 7900 XTX on a few retailer sites already, but they’re marked as unavailable or (in the case of Best Buy) ‘sold out’, which feels like a somewhat ominous portent.

In all honesty, though, we’re probably not going to see another RTX 4090 situation this time around. AMD appears committed to keeping stocks high, with an alleged 30,000 units hitting shelves on day 1 – ironically, the same number of units that the competing RTX 4080 is purported to have sold in the full final week of November.

The 4080 was a dubious proposition when it came to the price, and with AMD pricing their new flagship aggressively we can’t help but wonder how long it’ll take for Nvidia to relent and issue a price drop.

As we get closer to the release time, we’d like to take a moment to remind you that there may still be scalpers trying to scoop this card up and resell it at a higher price. Some of the third-party GPUs that will be going on sale are already priced higher than the base $999 starting price for AMD’s own model, although you will be getting factory-overclocked performance there.

If these cards sell out, be patient: don’t rush to eBay to try and grab one. AMD is seemingly more dedicated to stock replenishment than Nvidia, so even if the RX 7900 XTX does sell out completely in your region, you shouldn’t have to wait long to get your hands on one.
