AMD has officially dropped the price of its mainstream Navi 32 GPU, the Radeon RX 7700 XT, to $419 US, just a few months after its release.

The AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT GPU was seen as a slightly lower value compared to the Radeon RX 7800 XT since both cards had a $50 US difference in terms of pricing. The RX 7700 XT had an MSRP of $449 US while the RX 7800 XT had an MSRP of $499 US.

Knowing this, AMD has decided to give the RX 7700 XT a second chance with a price drop of $30 US which brings it down to $419 US. While the price drop isn't big, the difference in the pricing between the 7800 XT & 7700 XT is now $80 US which can make users opt for the lower-priced offering. Following are some of the main highlights of the Radeon RX 7700 XT GPU:

Pure Performance – More pure performance in popular games.

AMD Fluid Motion Frames Technology – The driver-based AMD Fluid Motion Frames frame generation technology increases FPS to deliver massive performance improvement and smooth gameplay in thousands of games.
