PowerColor recently adjusted prices for its Radeon RX 7900 XTX and 7900 XT graphics cards. The discounted model includes the Red Devil and Hellhound series. While NVIDIA seems to have some supply issues with some of the best RTX 4090 cards, it seems the opposite for AMD. I’m unsure if this is a time-limited deal or until supply lasts. But it seems only PowerColor is offering the cheapest RX 7900 XTX and RX 7900 XT in the market.
UPDATE: Well, that was fast. The deal only lasted for a day. Although, some of PowerColor’s cards are still discounted (slightly).
PowerColor’s Radeon RX 7900 Series Cards Are Currently The Cheapest
One of the best RX 7900 XTX cards is PowerColor’s Red Devil, and it is also currently the cheapest RX 7900 XTX in the market. It features an all-black color scheme with Red and devilish accents, though you can change the color since it is RGB. It’s one of the premium Radeon graphics cards, offering dual BIOS, higher boost clock speeds, an excellent cooling solution, and overall great build quality.
The Red Devil RX 7900 XTX usually retails for around $1,029.99, but currently it’s only $909.99. On the other hand, the Red Devil RX 7900 XT was also discounted, down to $719.99. Unfortunately, by the time I wrote this article, that model sold out quickly and is now out of stock. But if you are still looking for a cheap RX 7900 XT card, PowerColor still has the Hellhound.
PowerColor Hellhound series sits just below the Red Devil series. It’s not as striking as the Red Devil, but its fans have RGB lighting. Currently, the Hellhound RX 7900 XT retails for only $719.99 (discounted). Usually, this card sells for around $849.99. Meanwhile, the Hellhound RX 7900 XTX is currently discounted to $899.99, just $10 cheaper than the discounted Red Devil RX 7900 XT. Personally, I’d spend the extra $10 and get the Red Devil instead.
Pricing and Availability
As I mentioned, I’m unsure if this is a limited-time deal or until supply lasts. PowerColor seems to be the only company discounting their RX 7900 to this level. Other AIC partners, like XFX, Sapphire, etc., either stick to the MSRP or sell their cards slightly lower than the SRP.
