It's not a good time for cheap graphics cards. 'Wait, but I thought this was a graphics card deals page?' It is, but we're in the calm before the storm. Black Friday won't kick off until later this month and in the meantime we've noted only a few changes in GPU prices, with some even increasing by a couple dollars. You'll still find some cards worth buying below, mostly AMD models, but if you want the best deal on a graphics card, wait around until we're closer to Black Friday.

We'll be updating this page with the best early Black Friday graphics card deals in the lead up to the event. Black Friday lands on November 29, 2024.

Below you'll find a selection of current generation Nvidia and AMD graphics cards actually worth buying. We may recommend a handful of last generation cards if they're truly spectacular deals, but generally these aren't worth buying anymore compared to the RTX 40-series and RX 7000-series.

👉 We're curating the best early Black Friday PC gaming deals right here 👈

This is the last hurrah for the RTX 40-series and RX 7000-series. That's the idea, anyways. We're expecting new graphics cards from both Nvidia and AMD in the new year. That's the new RTX 50-series, codename Blackwell, led into battle by the RTX 5090; and RDNA 4-based GPUs presumably under the RX 8000-series banner.

When is Black Friday 2024?

Black Friday will take place on the final weekend of November, which this year falls on November 29, 2024. History tells us to expect plenty of deals ahead of that date, through November, and some afterwards, including on Cyber Monday.

What does 'price watch' mean?

We've added a new "price watch" qualifier to all our individual deals, making it easy to see whether a price has gone up 🔼 or down 🔽 since we last checked it out. It's important to note that any deal in this guide (even if it's slightly risen in price) is still one of our top picks, as we only show you deals that are actually worth buying.

What are Black Friday price guarantees and should I look out for them?

In the lead up to Black Friday some retailers may offer you a price guarantee, which has included Newegg and Best Buy in previous years.

These are a very handy tool for prospective buyers. The retailer is essentially offering you the lowest price for a product during the sales period, whether or not you bought it at that price or not. Head to the checkout with an early Black Friday graphics card deal, securing the stock for yourself, and if it drops any lower in price, you'll only pay that much.

The only downside is, most of the time, you'll be locked into buying it from that specific retailer. If another retailer massively reduces prices further, you might not get that reduction yourself. That said, most major retailers try to match one another during Black Friday, which helps reduce the risk of overpaying.

Amazon: Don't get stung by overpriced last-gen GPUs
Best Buy: Keep an eye on Best Buy for discounts
Walmart: Modern and ancient GPUs on sale

Newegg: Your best bet for a high-end GPU deal

Five things I always tell people before they buy their first graphics card

1. It's all about your budget

2. Buy the graphics card not the brand

3. Erm… yeah, it's also all about your monitor, too

4. You can always wait for a new generation, but don't automatically ignore the last-gen cards

5. It's an easy upgrade

US Black Friday graphics card deals

Price watch: ➖
ASRock RX 7600 | 8 GB GDDR6 | 2,048 shaders | 2,695 MHz boost | $269.99 $249.99 at Amazon (save $20)
As the budget baby of the RDNA 3 family, the RX 7600 faces a lot of competition. Not just from Intel and Nvidia, but from AMD's previous generation of cards too. At this price, though, it's quite a bit cheaper than the RX 6700 XT and in some games, it performs nearly as well. It's not the most exciting of graphics cards, though.

RX 7600 price check: Newegg $249.99 | Walmart $249.99 | Best Buy $269.99

Galax RTX 4060 | 8 GB GDDR6 | 3,072 shaders | 2,565 MHz boost | $299.99 $289.97 at Amazon (save $10.03)
If you must have Ada Lovelace, Nvidia's latest gaming architecture, the cheapest way in is this RTX 4060. Faster than the RTX 3060 but the price suggests it should have been better. You do get the full DLSS 3.5 suite, though, and it's pretty decent at encoding video for streaming. Nevertheless, we prefer AMD's RX 7600 or last-gen RX 6700.

RTX 4060 price check: Newegg $289.99 | Walmart $299 | Best Buy $294.99

Price watch: ➖
Galax RTX 4060 Ti | 8 GB GDDR6 | 4,352 shaders | 2,565 MHz boost | $369.99 at Amazon
The RTX 4060 Ti might have had a bit of a rocky reception with that 8GB of VRAM but we found it performed very well in our review, and it makes a very solid mid-range performer, particularly with the ability to take advantage of DLSS 3 and Frame Generation. This is a small twin-fan model that should still run cool and quiet and delivers a lot of gaming performance in a super-efficient fashion.

Zotac RTX 4070 | 12 GB GDDR6X | 5,888 shaders | 2,490 MHz boost | $629 $499.99 at Walmart (save $129.01)
The RTX 4070 is a popular card and can be difficult to find at a discount, but it's important to remember that this price is way cheaper than it was at launch. You're getting nearly RTX 3080 performance but with all those nice RTX 40 features. This model uses the traditional 8-pin PCIe power connector, rather than the new 12VHPWR one, which makes it far easier to install as an upgrade.

ASRock RX 7900 GRE | 16 GB GDDR6 | 5,120 shaders | 2,290 MHz boost | $529.99 at Newegg
The RX 7900 GRE is one of the more recent releases out of AMD, at least in the global market. It started out as a special edition for the Chinese gaming market, but it was rolled out globally to help the red team compete with the green guys. It's a good deal, too, being big chunks of the RX 7900 XT but with a little bit less of everything, to make a very performant but cheaper GPU.

Galax RTX 4070 Super | 12 GB GDDR6X | 7,168 shaders | 2,490 MHz boost | $579.99 at Amazon
The RTX 4070 Super is the latest version of Nvidia's mid-range card. Is it worth more than the regular RTX 4070 and the RX 7800 XT? Tricky to answer, so check out the benchmarks in our RTX 4070 Super review to see if it's the right choice for you. One way or another though, this is still the cheapest version we've found to date.

RTX 4070 Super price check: Newegg $609.99 | Walmart $578.81 | Best Buy $599.99

XFX RX 7900 XT | 20 GB GDDR6 | 5,376 shaders | 2,450 MHz boost | $689.99 $639.99 at Newegg (save $10 with code VGAEXCASET2232)
Seeing a bunch of RX 7900 XTs selling for well less than the original MSRP is a welcome sight, and while they might get overshadowed by some of Nvidia's greatest, they deliver a huge amount of performance. What we like about the Sapphire in particular is that it should run quieter than your average RX 7900 XT. We all could do with a little less noise from our PC.

RX 7900 XT price check: Amazon $690.91 | Best Buy $669.99 | Walmart $699.99

Powercolor RX 7900 XTX | 24 GB GDDR6 | 6,144 shaders | 2,525 MHz boost | $899.99 $849.99 at Amazon (save $50)
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 one.

Sapphire RX 7600 | 8 GB | 2,048 shaders | 2,755 MHz boost | £259.99 £229.99 at Overclockers (save £30)
As the budget baby of the RDNA 3 family, the RX 7600 faces a lot of competition. Not just from Intel and Nvidia, but from AMD's previous generation of cards too. At this price, though, it's a lot cheaper than the RX 6700 XT and in some games, it performs nearly as well. Dare I say that it's a little bit dull?

MSI RTX 4060 | 8 GB GDDR6 | 3,072 shaders | 2,475 MHz boost | £289 £268.99 at Amazon (save £20.01)
While the RTX 4060 isn't exactly one of our favourite graphics cards of all time, it's still capable of delivering good 1080p and 1440p performance thanks to DLSS 3. This little model has a twin-fan cooler and should slot into almost any modern system with no fuss at all. At this price, as budget GPUs go, it's a bit of a steal.

Asus RTX 4070 Super | 12 GB GDDR6X | 7,168 shaders | 2,475 MHz boost | £668.99 £539.99 at Overclockers (save £129)
The RTX 4070 Super still feels like it's only been out for five minutes, but here it is with a particularly decent discount. We found it was between 10% to 18% faster than the OG RTX 4070, although whether that's worth the price difference compared to the deal above is something for you to decide for yourself. Still, it's a fantastic mid-range gaming card.

Seeing a bunch of RX 7900 XTs selling for well less than the original MSRP is a welcome sight, and while they might get overshadowed by some of Nvidia's greatest, they deliver a huge amount of performance. What we like about the XFX with its triple-fan array in particular is that it should run quieter than your average RX 7900 XT. We all could do with a little less noise from our PC.

Gainward RTX 4070 Ti Super | 16 GB GDDR6X | 8,448 shaders | 2,640 MHz boost | £799.99 £719.99 at Overclockers (save £80)
This is quite the jump in pricing compared to the RTX 4070 Super, but it's quite the jump in performance, too. If you're looking for a card that can really deliver the goods yet can't quite stretch to the RTX 4080 Super below, the RTX 4070 Ti Super is a seriously powerful GPU that would be worthy of any gaming rig.

ASRock RX 7900 XTX | 24 GB GDDR6 | 6,144 shaders | 2,615 MHz boost | £998.99 £799.99 at Overclockers (save £199)
AMD's mighty RX 7900 XTX is now easy to find well under its original MSRP and it's a seriously powerful graphics card. While it's not as potent in ray tracing and AI/machine learning as Nvidia's equivalent cards, it handles standard rendering extremely well and you're getting more VRAM than you could ever want.

Gainward RTX 4080 Super | 16 GB GDDR6X | 10,240 shaders | 2,580 MHz boost | £989.99 £889.99 at Overclockers (save £100)
The RTX 4080 Super handily supersedes the original RTX 4080, as it's a little bit faster and has a lower MSRP. Here at £890, it makes a whole lot of sense, even if that's still a lot of money to be spending on one component. Still, it can only really be beaten by the RTX 4090, and good luck finding one of those for anything under £1,500.

Performance comparison

We've benchmarked all the latest GPUs of this generation, and have tracked their performance against the previous generation in terms of 3DMark Time Spy Extreme scores. Where we don't have the referential numbers for an older card we have used the average index score from the UL database. These figures track alongside an aggregated 1440p frame rate score from across our suite of benchmarks.

Intel's Arc cards are not noted here, as they generally score uncharacteristically highly in 3DMark, and that gives a false sense of performance without other frame rate figures to delve into. Check out our Arc A770 review and Arc A750 review for more.
