AMD unveiled the Radeon RX 7700 XT and RX 7800 XT graphics cards at Gamescom 2023. These models, which will compete with Nvidia’s RTX 4060 Ti and RTX 4070, are more affordable. This led Nvidia to cut the price of the RTX 4000 series.
Unexpected discount for Nvidia RTX 4060 Ti 16GB
Nvidia has discounted the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB model. With the company’s new announcement, the global price of the RTX 4060 Ti has dropped by $50 to $450. The AMD RX 7700 XT will be sold at the same price.
This move raises curiosity with the introduction of AMD’s new RX 7000 series, which could shake Nvidia’s position in the mid-range graphics card market. However, it is unclear how the price cut will be reflected in our country. Although AMD RX 7700 XT is not on sale yet, we see that RTX 4060 Ti is sold at 15-18 thousand TL.
The United States has imposed restrictions on the export of Nvidia and AMD products to certain countries in the Middle East.
The RTX 4060 Ti 16GB supports a 192-bit memory bus compared to the RX 7700 XT’s 256-bit bus. However, its 16GB of GDDR6 memory gives it an advantage over the RX 7700 XT’s 12GB capacity. With today’s games starting to outgrow 8GB of memory, 16GB of VRAM capacity is essential.
The RX 7700 XT comes with 12GB of memory supporting 54 processing units and 432GB/s bandwidth. According to AMD, the RTX 4060 Ti competes with 16GB variants. Let us remind you that it is offered at $450.
Nvidia’s new price has demonstrated the impact of AMD’s RDNA 3 graphics cards even before they hit the market. However, it is not known whether this change for RTX 4060 Ti will affect our country.
