Most VRAM per dollar in the clearance market.
Ultra-efficient.
Street prices are around $370 as of October 2026, above the $329 MSRP — worth buying only when they fall back below it.
New units sell well above MSRP and used units run around $670 as of October 2026 — above the $599 launch price. Delivers ~75% of RTX 5070 performance; only worth it used below $500.
Efficient power draw works with modest PSUs.
Over 2 years of stability optimizations ensure excellent game compatibility.
Released Jan 24, 2024, the RX 7600 XT has been on the market for 2 years 9 months. It has been superseded by the AMD RX 9060 XT, which launched Jun 5, 2025, so it's no longer a current-generation buy — new stock is clearance, and the rest of the market is second-hand.
Released Jan 17, 2024, the RTX 4070 Super has been on the market for 2 years 9 months. It has been superseded by the NVIDIA RTX 5070, which launched Mar 6, 2025, so it's no longer a current-generation buy — new stock is clearance, and the rest of the market is second-hand.
Both cards are superseded. If you're buying new, their replacements — the AMD RX 9060 XT and NVIDIA RTX 5070 — are where current pricing and timing advice apply.
At launch MSRP the RX 7600 XT is $270 cheaper than the RTX 4070 Super ($329 vs $599, 45% less). Per gigabyte of VRAM that's $20.6 for the RX 7600 XT and $49.9 for the RTX 4070 Super — the RX 7600 XT gives more memory for the money. Launch MSRP is only a reference point for a superseded card; its real price is whatever clearance or used stock sells for today.
RX 7600 XT (deals window to Dec 5, 2026, rated Caution): Black Friday 2026 — analysts do not expect memory supply to normalise before late 2027, so real clearance pricing is unlikely. Only buy if a deal lands below the $329 MSRP.
RTX 4070 Super (deals window to Jun 30, 2027, rated Wait): New retail — no longer in production; remaining new units cost well above the $599 MSRP. Do not buy new.
Our pick: NVIDIA RTX 4070 Super
Both of these cards are superseded, so if you're buying new, compare the AMD RX 9060 XT and NVIDIA RTX 5070 instead. The rest of this verdict applies to clearance or used units.
Our pick is the RTX 4070 Super: it carries the higher editor score (8.2 vs 7.3).
Go for the RX 7600 XT instead if you want more VRAM: 16 GB vs 12 GB, or if you want lower power draw: 150W vs 220W rated TDP.
