XFX RX 7600 | 8 GB GDDR6 | 2048 shaders | 2655 MHz boost | $319.99 at Newegg
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 older 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, as you can see in our review. It's not the most exciting of graphics cards, though.

Sparkle Arc B570 | 10 GB GDDR6 | 2304 shaders | 2660 MHz boost | $329 at Newegg
Intel's new Battlemage chip is only a fraction slower than its last-gen Arc A770, so at this price, it's worth considering. Do note, though, that the drivers still need work, as some games don't like the new architecture. When it's all working fine, you're getting a lot of GPU for the money, though the price has risen a lot recently, and this particular deal is through a third-party seller.

Gunnir Arc B580 | 12 GB GDDR6 | 2560 shaders | 2670 MHz boost | $379 at Newegg
Stocks of Intel's best GPU, the Arc 580, are finally starting to pick up. The price tag is still above where we'd be completely happy recommending it as an essential budget purchase, even though it can be really fast in some games. Note that US stocks are very limited, so this deal is from a third-party seller.

Gigabyte RTX 4060 Ti | 8 GB GDDR6 | 4352 shaders | 2550 MHz boost | $438.10 at Amazon
Stocks of RTX 4060 Ti cards are few and far between, and few are sensibly priced. This is a European import, but it's from Amazon's own stores. Still not worth it at this price, though.

MSI RTX 4060 | 8 GB GDDR6 | 3072 shaders | 2475 MHz boost | $439.99 at Amazon
Entry-level RTX 50 series cards are starting to roll out, but right now, Nvidia's current cheapest entry point is the RTX 4060. While faster than the RTX 3060, as shown in our review, 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. Stocks have dried up, and this deal is through a third-party seller on Amazon; it's far too expensive for a 4060, though.

XFX RX 7700 XT | 12 GB GDDR6 | 3072 shaders | 2544 MHz boost | $529.99 at Amazon
For a while, the Radeon RX 7700 XT was the ideal choice for a mid-range gaming PC, thanks to its 1440p performance and price. But now that it's well over its launch MSRP, you're better off putting the money towards its bigger brother, the RX 7800 XT.

MSI RTX 5060 Ti | 16 GB GDDR7 | 4608 shaders | 2662 MHz boost | $549.99 at Newegg
While the specs suggest it should only be a little faster than the 4060 Ti, the use of super-speedy GDDR7 gives the little Blackwell GPU a healthy boost. Not worth buying if you already have an RTX 40-series card, but it's a decent upgrade if you have a much older GPU. The 8 GB version is cheaper, though there's no sign of it on retailers' shelves.

PowerColor RX 7800 XT | 16 GB GDDR6 | 3840 shaders | 2430 MHz boost | $599.99 at Amazon
As you can see in our full review, the RX 7800 XT is only slightly faster than the RX 6800 XT it replaced, but it has a more modern feature set and copes much better with ray tracing. Stocks are now super low these days, and while the price isn't ridiculous, it's nowhere near as good a value for money as it used to be.

Gigabyte RTX 5070 | 12 GB GDDR7 | 6144 shaders | 2542 MHz boost | $609.99 at Newegg
Although the RTX 5070 is a good deal faster than its predecessor, the RTX 4070, it's not a great deal at this price. However, this is as cheap as 5070s get right now. Only consider it if you really must have DLSS 4 and all of Nvidia's AI rendering tech.

PowerColor RX 9070 XT | 16 GB GDDR6 | 4096 shaders | 2970 MHz boost | $799.99 at Amazon
The RX 9070 XT is AMD's best graphics card in recent years, so naturally it's hugely popular, resulting in very low stocks and sky-high prices. At this price, it's absolutely not worth buying one, but if it does become cheaper, then the new FSR 4 upscaling tech is the main reason why you'd pick one up.

The RX 7900 XT is a solid gaming graphics card, but it's not as good as the latest GPUs from AMD and Nvidia in the same price segment. There are better graphics cards to be spending your money on, though its 20 GB of VRAM might appeal to some.

MSI RTX 5070 Ti | 16 GB GDDR7 | 8960 shaders | 2497 MHz boost | $899.99 at Newegg
At its $749 MSRP, the RTX 5070 Ti is a superb graphics card, but current prices are nowhere near that mark. Instead, you're looking at nearly $1,000 for a 5070 Ti, which is far less appealing at this price. If you think of it as being like an RTX 4080 with DLSS 4 support, though, then it doesn't seem quite so bad.

Over last year's sales period, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX was much cheaper and sold like proverbial hotcakes. Unfortunately, that means stocks are super low everywhere and prices are sky-high again. It's not value for money, so only buy one if you absolutely must have AMD's most powerful GPU.

MSI RTX 5080 | 16 GB GDDR7 | 10752 shaders | 2655 MHz boost | $1,409.99 @ Newegg
Yes, it's $400 over Nvidia's MSRP for the RTX 5080. That's just how things are at the moment. It's arguably not worth the money, either, as the RTX 5080 isn't that much faster than the RTX 4080 it replaces. You do get the full DLSS 4 suite, including Multi Frame Generation, but you're really better off waiting until prices become more sensible.

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.

The RTX 4060 Ti might not have blown our socks off when it first arrived, but it's a great budget gaming GPU at this price with some chunky performance for the money. While there is a 16 GB variant available, 8 GB here should do you just fine, despite the fuss that was created around its launch.

The RX 9070 is a really solid mid-range graphics card, provided you can get one at a sensible price. While this deal is a little on the pricey side, it's still better value for money than Nvidia's RTX 50-series. FSR 4 upscaling and frame generation are the best AMD tech in years. The only problem is that the RX 9070 XT is available for only a little extra cash.
