AMD has some of the best graphics cards out there, offering a solid alternative to Nvidia’s RTX lineup that even surpasses it with certain models. One of our favorite graphics cards last year was the AMD Radeon 7800 XT, which provided excellent performance across both 1080p and 1440p. For Black Friday, you can save $60 off the XFX Qicksilver AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT at Best Buy. This is one of the lowest prices we’ve seen this model at, so don’t miss out on this limited time deal.
XFX Qicksilver AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT for $469.99
One of the major features of this XFX Qicksilver model is the Magnetic Air technology. With this, you can remove and replace the three fans instantly – no tools or removal of your GPU required. This can be a godsend if you run into issues with a fan, which usually means you have to take apart your graphics card by yourself, often voiding a warranty in doing so.
You also have access to three display port outputs on the back, which is perfect for using up to three monitors. You can even use one port for a PC VR headset – which is also on sale for Black Friday. The included 16GB of GDDR6 memory is essential for high-performance 1440p gameplay, with some 4K support even possible. This RX 7800 XT is one of the best graphics cards you can get for 1440p.
What We Said in Our Review
In our 9/10 review, Jackie Thomas wrote: “The AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT is easily the best graphics card of this generation so far. It’s reasonably priced, has a good chunk of VRAM and has excellent gaming performance where it counts. Unless ray tracing is all you care about, this is the 1440p graphics card for you.”
Should You Buy Now or Wait for Cyber Monday?
With Black Friday officially here, you might be wondering if this deal may get better on Cyber Monday. The online holiday sees major discounts online across retailers each year, but as of late, these deals mostly carry over from the week of Black Friday deals. While you can’t go wrong with today’s price, there is always a chance this graphics card could be further discounted come Monday.
