For those diligent souls looking out for a cheap graphics card deal this March, then this is a good place for you be. Whether you're in the US or UK, you can get one of AMD's seriously good and sometimes overlooked 5700 XT graphics cards for a lowest-ever price. What's more, the two we're highlighting are from quality and respected mainstream manufacturers too. This card sits at number 7 on our guide to the best graphics card, and so this deal is great news for anyone looking to head into spring by putting together one of the best gaming PCs.
In the US, you can currently get an MSI version of the card - the MSI EVOKE Radeon RX 5700 XT, to be exact - for the low price of just $379.99. This is a bargain price and, as far as we can tell, the lowest price the 55700 XT card has ever gone for. Over in the UK, the ASUS TUF Gaming X3 Radeon RX 5700 XT variant of the excellent card has come right down (when compared to its list price) and is at a relative snip of £319.95. These variants of the card are both strong performers and offer enormous bang for buck at this price level.
Generally, the 5700 XT card is perfect for 1080p and 1440p gaming. Although it won't offer the ray-tracing support of other more-premium cards, it's very power efficient as a result of AMD's 7nm process and benefits enormously from AMD's RDNA architecture. It's also about 5-10% more powerful in terms of raw horsepower than the 2060 Super, so you can count on its graphical power chops. The RX 5700 XT also supports AMD's Radeon Image Sharpening, which AMD claims will sharpen graphics with almost no performance impact in games that support it.
