AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT vs. Radeon RX 6800 XT: If you’re shopping around for a new Radeon GPU or looking to upgrade, you now know that across a wide range of games the Radeon 7900 XT is about 30% faster than the 6800 XT (without ray tracing enabled), and closer to 40% faster with ray tracing enabled.

Radeon RX 7900 XT vs. GeForce RTX 4070 Ti: Overall they are very close in terms of performance, the 7900 XT generally does better with ray tracing disabled – Hogwarts Legacy, The Witcher 3, Dying Light 2, and Cyberpunk 2077 all good examples of that – but there are signs that ray tracing performance in future titles using Unreal Engine 5 could be a lot more competitive, as seen in Fortnite.

In our opinion, there’s no reason to buy the Radeon RX 7900 XT, you’d always just spend $100 extra to get the faster 7900 XTX. For the XT model to make sense it needs to cost $200 less than the XTX, anything short of that and you might as well buy the fully fledged model.

The AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT offers good value considering the sheer amount of power it provides. It offered an amazing performance in 4K gaming with frame rates consistently hitting over 100fps and is more than capable of taking on heavy-duty content creation tasks. The performance may be overkill for most gamers, but it’s a great pick for anyone looking for a complete powerhouse.

The $899 price is steep, but graphics cards aren’t just for playing games. With 20GB of VRAM, the RX 7900 XT will power through creative tasks. With games including larger texture files, 20GB will stay relevant longer than the 12GB Nvidia put on the $799 RTX 4070Ti. Most of the RTX 4070Ti models from AIBs are substantially more expensive than that MSRP, making AMD’s RX 7900 XT look more attractive at the price for 1440p gaming.

The Radeon RX 7900 XTX and XT are a solid step forward for AMD, especially when it comes to 4K gaming. But I’m hoping the company can get its driver situation in order, and perhaps eke out better ray tracing performance in the process. Most gamers are still better off waiting for AMD and NVIDIA’s next-gen mid-range cards, which are sure to be launching soon. But if you’re an avowed AMD fan, you’ve finally got the high-end upgrade you’ve been waiting for.

The AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT is a solid GPU that offers great gaming performance and massive improvements across the board over AMD’s previous generation; however, creative performance is lacking, and it’s somewhat difficult to justify its existence when the more powerful XTX version is only $100 more expensive.

The AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT delivers fierce performance for 1440p and 4K play, though its faster RX 7900 XTX sibling, at only $100 more, makes it a harder sell.

AMD’s second-best Navi 31-based Radeon RX 7900 XT is a good card, trying to be better… but cut down at the knees because the Radeon RX 7900 XTX costs just $100 more. Disappointing.

The Radeon RX 7900 XT is a decent high-end graphics card, but in this price range from AMD, you’re better off splurging for that extra X.

We will get a better idea of how the RX 7900 XT fits in once the RTX 4070 Ti is released, but it’s certainly the weaker of the two 7900 series graphics cards released today.

We think that both are good, but the price difference between them is slender enough, and the extra performance of the XTX big enough, that you would be best going for the big RX 7900 XTX, particularly if you plan to game at 4K. If you’re only at 1440 then there is little reason to spend the extra as the cards are so capable that your CPU will become the limiting factor.

The GeForce RTX 4090 still sits atop the hill, but the Radeon RX 7900 XT and Radeon RX 7900 XTX are right there alongside the RTX 4080. AMD’s pricing, however, makes the Radeon RX 7900 particularly interesting. In terms of MSRP at least, these new Radeons undercut NVIDIA by hundreds of dollars and they are right in-line with the previous-gen, and offer compelling upgrade options for gamers.

Radeon RX 7900 XT Revisit: AMD’s second most powerful RDNA 3 GPU got off the wrong foot at release for $900. Since then, it’s received a hefty price drop, down to $699, making it a more appealing mid-range option and allowing it to better compete against Nvidia’s RTX 4070 Super range.
