`AMD's Radeon RX 6950 XT Drops to a New Low of $699: Real Deals`

The new generation of graphics cards is here, and slowly the different ranges of cards are trickling out. The problem though is that the new generation is pretty expensive and it’s a hard pill to swallow for a lot of gamers and PC builders, so some are looking back at the last generation to see if any bargains can be had on GPUs with competing performance.

This is where we land on the ASRock OC Formula Radeon RX 6950 XT at $699 (opens in new tab). The price has finally dropped below $700 and if you look at our GPU hierarchy (opens in new tab) list, you can see it’s still very competitive against the latest GPU lineup.

If you do manage to snag a top-tier GPU then you might want to pair it with a high-resolution 4K Samsung Odyssey G70B Gaming Monitor for $799 (opens in new tab). This 32-inch beast has an IPS panel HDR400 and a fast refresh rate of 144Hz. UHD monitors are still not the most popular type of gaming monitor at the moment due to their higher prices and the need for a very powerful graphics card to make the most out of them.

This is a fantastic deal on one of our favorite SSDs – the SK hynix Platinum P41 2TB PCIe 4.0 SSD for $181 (opens in new tab) from Amazon. See our review of the S K hynix Platinum P41 (opens in new tab) to see why it earned an Editor’s Choice award. There is a caveat to this deal though, and that is it’s only available to Amazon Prime members.
