Your PC's graphics card is the heart of any gaming PC and the part that has the biggest impact on gaming performance. After years in which it was impossible to find the best graphics cards for less than MSRP thanks to the crypto-bubble and the pandemic, we're unfortunately seeing that lack of availability reappear, with limited stocks of the latest GPUs and last-generation graphics cards no longer available.
With scores of third-party cards and many different sellers, it can be difficult to determine the lowest price for a 16GB RTX 4060 Ti, a Radeon RX 7900 XT, or any GPU across all brands and stores. That's why we're updating this page weekly with the lowest prices in the U.S. on each GPU from the most recent two generations of Nvidia, AMD, and Intel cards. We're listing the lowest price today for each graphics card, regardless of whether it's made by Asus, Zotac, MSI, Sapphire, Gigabyte, ASRock, etc.
Check out our list of the best graphics cards and our GPU benchmark hierarchy to see evergreen performance data to help you make an informed decision when choosing a new GPU for your system.
Nvidia RTX 50-Series: Lowest Graphics Cards Prices
Incorporating the world's most powerful consumer gaming graphics card, the latest 50-series GPUs from Nvidia include the GeForce RTX 5090. The RTX 5090 uses the new Blackwell architecture and comes with a massive 32GB of GDDR7 VRAM, that boasts an impressive 1792 GB/sec memory bandwidth.
The 50-series range doesn't have the most impressive gen-on-gen performance uplifts on pure rasterization power compared to the 40-series, but, it does support new software and tech such as 5th Gen Tensor cores, 4th Gen Ray Tracing cores, DLSS 4 with Multi-Frame Generation tech, and Reflex 2.
Stock levels are currently exceptionally low and pricing is atrocious. Scalpers and availability have driven prices of 50-series cards into the stratosphere, so even if you do manage to find an available GPU, you might have to pay well over MSRP if you are unable to wait for better stock levels.
Nvidia RTX 40-Series: Lowest Graphics Cards Prices
Nvidia's 40-series Ada Lovelace architecture graphics cards include the powerful Geforce RTX 4090 and 4080 Super. The 4090 combines a massive 24GB of GDDR6X VRAM, with superfast core clock speeds and Nvidia's 4th generation of Tensor cores for unrivaled ray-tracing ability.
The RTX 40-series cards also feature Nvidia's proprietary DLSS 3 software support for AI frame generation, which helps to increase frame rates on higher resolutions and settings. In general, Nvidia cards are best for ray tracing, with more features than the competition. You'll also generally pay more for Nvidia GPUs relative to similarly performing AMD GPUs.
The 4090 isn't on "sale" anywhere, as demand remains high. Impending China export restrictions on the RTX 4090 aren't likely to help matters, and we're seeing an upward trend in pricing for that GPU. The RTX 40-series GPUs are no longer being produced so stock levels have dried up. Any available cards are mostly second-hand or ex-mining hardware and ask for some exorbitant prices. There are 8GB RTX 4060 Ti, and RTX 4060 cards still available, but finding them anywhere near MSRP is very rare.
GPU Model | Best US Price | Lowest-Ever U.S. Price |
|---|---|---|
GeForce RTX 4090 | $1,599 | |
GeForce RTX 4080 Super | Out of Stock | $902 |
GeForce RTX 4080 | Out of Stock | $949 |
GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super | Out of Stock | $739 |
GeForce RTX 4070 Ti | Out of Stock | $649 |
GeForce RTX 4070 Super | $560 | |
GeForce RTX 4070 | $489 | |
GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB | $419 | |
GeForce RTX 4060 Ti | $329 | |
GeForce RTX 4060 | $259 |
AMD Radeon RX 9000-Series: Lowest Graphics Cards Prices
AMD has recently released the RX 9070, and RX 9070 XT graphics cards with MSRP prices of $549 and $599 respectively. Although, finding one of these GPUs for that price could be a struggle. These new cards go toe-to-toe with Nvidia's RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti and offer a great alternative to Team Green.
The RX 9070 XT comes with 16GB of GDDR6 VRAM for those texture-heavy games and provides a large generational increase compared to RDNA 3. Improvements to AI and ray tracing tech have made this generation of AMD cards perform much better in games with ray tracing, but they still fall behind Nvidia in overall performance for ray/path tracing.
Along with Nvidia's 50-series graphics cards, you will struggle to find the RX 9070 and 9070 XT in stock, and units that are available may be asking well above MSRP.
GPU Model | Best US Price | Lowest-Ever U.S. Price |
|---|---|---|
Radeon RX 9070 XT | $599 | |
Radeon RX 9070 | Out of Stock | $549 |
AMD Radeon RX 7000-Series: Lowest Graphics Cards Prices
AMD's latest 7000-series of graphics cards offer a step-up in performance over the 6000-series, with increased ray-tracing performance and raw computational performance. Combined with AMD's FSR software, these GPUs can crank out the frame rates in the latest games.
Nearly all of these GPUs are selling below their launch MSRPs, sometimes by a fairly wide margin. The RX 7900 XT in particular represents a great blend of performance and features. Here are all the lowest prices for the 7000-series models currently available.
Intel Arc GPUs: Lowest Graphics Card Prices
Intel's entry into the GPU market has been a little hit-and-miss. In some titles, these cards perform respectfully well, but in older DirectX games, the cards suffer from some poor performance issues.
Driver updates however are relatively frequent and many improvements have been made, but most of all, the prices of these GPUs have hit a price sweet spot that has been abandoned by Nvidia and AMD. For 1080p, gaming the Arc-series of GPUs should certainly be considered for any budget gaming system.
Intel just launched the Arc B580, though the Arc B570 remains the better deal based on current pricing, and has more availability.
